Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

    This is definitely a great controller for anyone that plays video games! It will take a little while to get used to the extra buttons but when you get used to it there will be no going back.

    the controller it self is amazing with the ability of swapping out the sticks is amazing but i really wished it was bluetooth to IOS apple unfortunately it’s not , which sucks because there’s many games out there that are supporting controllers, but this didn’t made the cut which is fine but would be an amazing game breaking moment, in all its a awesome controller i haven’t got any problems just yet, & the game pass bonus is quite amazing it self, in all, awesome controller would be amazing with the bluetooth connections as it can be taken to huge levels, in all amazing -B.

    Really great build.

    The controller is very sturdy. Feels great in hand. Best controller build on the market by Microsoft. Having this in combination with the Geek Squad protection is 10x better than having a Scuff controller. Cable (USB-C) given with controller is about a 6 feet long. Doesn’t always connect directly with system when attempting to turn on the console from controller. To fix just connect the cable to the console and syncs. Minor flaw but also didn’t attempt to update firmware on controller to see if it remedied the issues.

      Hi there,

      It's great to hear that you're enjoying your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. If you're still experiencing an issue with the connection to your Xbox, we do recommend (you guessed it!) updating the firmware on your controller and making sure that your Xbox also has the latest service update installed. Please reach out to Xbox Support if that doesn't fix the problem: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
