Customer Ratings & Reviews

Really solid controller, If you rage game like I do these tend to break after a year or so tho

I decided to spoil myself by getting a premium controller. This was an excellent choice. The quality is great. It works really well for online gaming. Highly recommended..

I was skeptical about spending 150 bucks for a controller. After a few weeks, I don’t think I could go back. The ability to customize all the buttons, the addition of the four paddles, the feel, and long battery life makes this a worthy purchase. Took a few days to get used to the extra buttons, but well worth it. Highly recommended!!

Great feeling, love the paddles, love how customizable it is.

Feels sturdy and the weight is nice. I’ve not experienced any drift or button issues I did have a launch model that was starting to develop bumper issues but that was after literally thousands of hours of use and only one bumper. I like it so I got another one.

Perfect. Feels great and has some heft so you feel like you are holding an elite product.

The Elite Series 2 brings a lot of disappointment. When I first bought the controller I had to return it the next day because the D pad was misaligned. The right D pad button was tilted up, making it harder to press compare to the left D pad button. After 4 months of gaming, my bottom right paddle stopped working and I had to use my warranty to get it replaced which meant I had to rebuy the warranty which costed me another $50. After getting the controller replaced, my left trigger stopper adjuster fell off. On the previous elite the trigger stopper adjusters were made out of a solid plastic but on the Series 2, it’s a tiny toothpick end with a rubber cover. When the cover fell of it made it harder to switch the triggers. Some pros are the new grip design and internal batteries. The Elite 1 rubber grips peeled off after 6 months of gaming and the new design is holding on so far. The internal batteries is a plus with the case as the charger. I visit my friends home a lot and I like bringing my own controller so this is a plus for me. After paying nearly $300 with warranty I’m very disappointed on this product. The price is half of a brand new console. You might as well buy a regular controller and get the $30 StrikePack paddle mods or the PowerA Fusion pro....

The only controller you will ever need. I use this for the Xbox and Steam on my PC. And you definitely get what you pay for. Premium construction, the controllers wear and tear are minimal even after about an year of purchase and moderate gaming use.

Love the heavy feel to this controller. This controllers ability to swap button mappings is great.

Truly the benchmark for quality in gaming controllers. Solid, feels great, and thorough attention to detail. The triggers are long enough for racing games but can be shortened as well. I only wish they let you choose between the concave joysticks or convex like on Nintendo and Playstation. Concave never made any sense...

It’s so much better than a regular control due to the weight mainly. It’s heavier than a regular remote which I really like. I don’t use most of the bells and whistles this thing has, but no more changing batteries was enough for me to shell out for this controller, everything else is gravy.

The control controller is all right. It works well. I like to custom ability of it, but the LB/RB button stop working sometimes and it gets stick drift after a while. I had a black one that got stick drift, and the LB button stopped working.

This controller is just totally awesome. Fully programmable and will take ur whole gaming experience to a new level for sure!! I must say, though the programming part of it is definitely at a higher level capable understanding. I would recommend watching the associated video of this product if it’s still offered through Best Buy website and not recommended for younger children.

So far everything has been on par or better than the series one. great for use both on Xbox one and PC. Haven't personally tried the X,(I haven't been able to get one yet either. You're not alone!) but all the specs say it should work there too! Best part so far is the rubber wont fall off of this model. Unlike the series ones, as the whole case is rubberized. One note, be aware of the cords if you buy off brands later on. the controller itself needs a usb-c input. (The new rounded/oval shaped one.) It comes with all the cords you need though, so not something to worry about right away, but worth knowing that it's not the, used on everything, micro usb like the series one. But it's a better connection for newer machines. So it'll be better for the long run. Outside of fully moving the stick and button positions, (Like some of the wilder custom units.) you can personalize *literally* everything, and you have more variety of thumbstick styles and textures to match what you're actively playing, compared to the series one. It also just has a good feel. It's a simple thing, but it feels solid and well made.

The controller is over all good the buttons need to be sealed more to keep dirt and dust out of them.

Yes this is an expensive controller but Microsoft knocked this one out of the park! Love the grip and all of the customizations including making the sticks tight and loose. If you are a competitive gamer especially fps the back paddles are key! Being able to jump and slide while aiming using your sticks has never been easier. I would recommend to anyone!

Great controller! Unfortunately the newer version came out so my nephew exchanged it for a newer version!

Works well, has been pretty durable with his rough I’ve been with it..

Must have controller when playing games as longer battery life, easier rechargability, paddles, and stick tensioner

Comfortable quality feel and smooth working item! Very glad to have purchased with best buy and got a great deal on my protection plan
