Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really enjoy this controller. Its light and helps out alot when gaming.

Okay for the online gamer this is definitely a great idea for your gaming experience yes it’s definitely pricey but buy once and no not like the saying you will not cry once. I have had the elite series controllers since last model and yes upgraded and love the customization of them and the ease of use and the performance is amazing. Battery life is great also. If you’re a gamer you will love this controller and it will make gaming experience even more awesome. Definitely go get you one and enjoy and get the geek squad coverage to it’s worth it for all your purchases.

Classic heavy-built controller. Paddles are a little wiggly but perform perfectly. I love the case, magnetic charger, and stick replacements. Long battery life and insane customization for stick and trigger function.

Very nice controller, the paddles underneath take getting used to and I really like the extra weight. This is better than the Elite series 1 controller. A little pricy.

This is the best and worst controller xbox puts out. It feels amazing in your hand and the charging feature is awesome. All the different buttons on the back are great. Only issue is i had to return 2 of these before i found one that the triggers didn't feel sticky right out the box. I watched some YouTube videos on the issue and i fixed the 3rd one by putting an alcohol pad in the back of the trigger with a skinny piece of metal. Apparently there's glue or something that is always back there. After several week my right thumb stick drifts. Other than the stupid issues it's still way better than the ones the xbox comes with.

Battery life is great. Responsive and latency are great and controller is comfortable. After some use there was some wander but it’s very minimal compared to other controllers. Pricey but worth it.

The best controller out there for X Box Series X & S consoles! Tons of customization for the controller. The added details and buttons make it comfortable for hours of gaming. The grip is superb, the interchangeable buttons are amazing. Never going back to the controllers that come with the console. Liked it so much I bought 2 for my setup (bedroom & living room Series X consoles). Also, I like the case and charging station that the Elite has, the ‘Core’ model doesn’t come with it.

Recently bought this controller due to my scuf having stick drift the amount of customization you can do with this controller is insane and it feels really good in hand with the textured handles and also comes with trigger stops , back buttons that you can make any button and other joysticks overall 9/10 if it didn’t get stick drift it would be a 10 definitely worth the money

It is a very good controller I do like it the build quality is there the price is a little steep in my opinion when you compare it to something like the G7 game sir only because the software does not have as much customization as I would like truthfully but battery life lasts forever never have any problems with pairing it feels like a $200 controller but it's one of those where if this controller goes out I'll probably be buying a game sir

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Controller delivers premium quality, exceptional customization, and ergonomic comfort. Perfect for casual and competitive gamers, it enhances precision and adapts seamlessly to any play style. A true game-changer!

Good: Excellent controller, takes everything you like about a regular Xbox controller and makes it better. Adds bottom ABXY paddles so you can keep your right thumb of the joystick. USB-C charging and good battery life. Swappable sticks, nice case. Adjustable trigger length is awesome- I use it on the shortest setting for everything but racing games Meh: price is high- $120 seems more reasonable. Warranty was initially 90 days, Microsoft has bumped that to 1 year due to “mechanical failures” Bad: left stick has failed after 10 months of light and gentle use. An additional 2-3 year warranty feels like a requirement at this price point

Fantastic controller great customization, it's a not heavier but more than makes up for the weight with extra battery life.

A must have. Great quality, the heft of the controller adds to the ease of use. Adjustable settings are unique and add to the customization experience. Just a bit on the pricey side.

I grew up a PS fanboy, but I have to give credit where it is due. This controller from xbox is unmatched in battery life (about 10 times its Playstation counterpart), there are more paddles, support for magnetic charging through the case, they are hugely customizable. Finally, they are heavily supported, which is also more than i can say for the ps counterpart. They dont even support their own controller on their own pc app.

Okay first things first, this controller is great. I’ve used SCUF in the past, and they always seemed to have a defect pretty early on in their life cycle.. Dealing with their customer service was always a hassle. These controllers typically last me a couple years, the main thing that seems to go out on them periodically is the Right and Left bumpers for whatever reason.. They still work technically, but seem to double click after awhile. Only game it’s really an issue in is Fortnite when switching weapons.. Otherwise I love the grip and the battery has a pretty decent longevity between charges. Definitely recommend picking up the 2 years GSP with this one. Your future self will thank you!

Had to replace my original elite controller after 5 years and the new one feels better and battery lasts longer

Love the feel, response and weight. Super comfortable and awesome customization. Highly recommend.

I was hesitant to buy this again. The first one I got for Christmas from my wife. Brand new right out of the box it was defective and had stick drift and I was pretty disappointed.. was impossible to play first person shooters like call of duty. So We returned and if getting it from Walmart was the reason I don’t know..Then bought it from bestbuy and wow!! I’m really impressed and enjoy using this for Warzone.. grippy and a little heavier but has a nice feel with a lot of settings.. good thing I took a chance on it again.. worth the buy!

the customization and feel of this controller is fantastic. I have the first one and the changes with this one is par with what you would expect. Ive always been terrible with controllers and wanted to try the elite and have not been disappointed at all. The elite 2 is smaller but heavier than the first I prefer the size of the original but I weight of the second one is better in my opinion. I like the fact that you can change how stiff the sticks are and the paddles underneath are also stiff which is great. In the original if you set it down just right the paddles would press and with this second elite you have more freedom of where to place your controller. I set it down on the arm of my chair. One last thing is I'm glad that they finally included the battery.

This controller, albeit really expensive is SOOOO nice. I had the original elite controller and it held up ok in retrospect, had it for a few years but the rubber grips on the side were starting to peel. With this version it looks like Microsoft learned from their mistakes and made a 2 piece handle that can be easily replaced. The controller feels lighters and I love the rechargeable battery the tactile feel of the grip handles. Honestly I could go on and on about this controller, but if you're considering buying it its because you game alot and you want the best. This controller is hands down the best and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.
