Customer Ratings & Reviews

The customizabilityand being able to toggle thimbstick settings as well really changes how some games play for me compared to other controllers in a good way and i highly recommended buying. The battery life is amazing

I recently purchased the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. Design and Build Quality: The controller's build quality is exceptional. Performance: The Elite Series 2 Core delivers outstanding performance. Customization Options: The ability to remap buttons, adjust trigger sensitivity, and customize thumbstick tension gives me a level of control that I haven't experienced with other controllers. Battery Life: The battery life is impressive, lasting through several gaming sessions on a single charge. Conclusion: In conclusion, the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller is a premium gaming accessory worth every penny.

I bought another one because I do really like them, but the first one I had started to have that right stick drift after a little less than 2 years, which at least on Ark Survival Evolved made the game unplayable with it making my player look straight at the ground constantly even if just standing still. There are plenty of videos online about this issue, (the spraying air and using alcohol "solutions" on some videos did not work) and I can say that from my experience it is real problem and should be unacceptable for the lofty price; MS should at least have a longer warranty for this particular issue.

This controller is excellent. I have the gears of war elite controller but this one just feels better. The weight is perfect and with all the options you have what a fantastic product. Hats off to Microsoft for making a great product even better

A great controller, The quality and feel of the series 2 is unmatched by other xbox controllers in the past, with customizable joysticks, triggers, and the option for paddles, this controller is the best that xbox has to offer

Love the feel of this. Little heavier is nice and the able to tweak it is really nice too.

I love this controller, but something about L3 isn’t as clicky anymore so it’s not as satisfying to press.

This is the third controller that I bought for my Xbox. It was expensive compared to the other two, but it is actually the best thus far. Very comfortable and the battery life is much better, lasting almost 16 hours. The fact that you can charge it while inside the case is a plus. I highly recommend this controller.

Love it and hate it. Physically it's incredible looking and feeling -- just what you would want out of a $200 controller. Would give 5 stars, except that out of the box my A button was less responsive than X Y B, and my right trigger developed a crunching / squeaking noise... which is not cool for a $200 controller. Bestbuy product page states you are buying a Model:FST-00008 version of the controller, and yet I received a Model:FST-00001. So... not sure why that was either, and thus I have to give 3 stars. If you can get one without any issues, or you don't care about the issues I mentioned, then don't hesitate on buying one. Product received via shipping on January 30th, 2021.

Solid investment. I bought it to see if my gameplay could improve with a better controller. It definitely helped most of the FPS games I play. It has a ton of customization options on the controller itself and in the app to change button mapping, etc. Worth it in my opinion. Battery lasts forever.

Love the controller, feels great in hand, that paddles are a bit hard to use at first but than you get the hang of it and makes you play like pro

So far it’s awesome! Easy to customize, program and use ^_^

This is my very first controller. I can say nothing about other controllers. (Cuz I'm PC Gamer) But I'm really sure this Elite controller 2 feels so good in the hands and the battery life is Awesome. I played 8-13 hours every day for 4 days without charging. (for testing battery). I recommend Elite Controller Series 2 for PC (if you want more challenge) and of course for Xbox

An amazing controller love everything about it!! Helps out with advanced gameplay!!

My favorite controller of all time so much so I had to get 2 for when I have friends over

Once you purchase this amazing controller you will never be able to go back to standard. It feels incredible and having paddles is amazing for FPS games. The charge holds for what feels like days of non stop playing and do I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Yes it's expensive for a controller but if you are a serous gamer that plays daily this is a must buy!

I purchased this controller for gaming on my PC. It connects via Bluetooth and operates flawlessly. I love the paddles on the back. I previously used a Scuf gaming PS4 remote with paddles. This controller has a higher quality feel to it.

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...

I really like the controller and it’s case. The only thing I don’t like about it is it’s extra weight. Maybe to some it feels more higher quality to have it weigh this much, but it’s noticeable and not welcome for me. Other than the extra weight, I really love this controller. It’s expensive too and I would never pay full price. But if you’re rich and dedicated to the Xbox, it’s worth it. Much better than PS5 controllers with the symbols

Smooth, sleek, has the convenience of adjusting to your comfort with the additional tiols and accessories
