Customer Ratings & Reviews

I would definitely give this controller 5 stars if this was the first Elite controller you purchased. I wouldn’t rate it 5 stars if you already have the first model. A few definitely marked improvements; my favorites being the anti slip grip, the shortened paddles on the back, and the 3 customizable settings. If you have the first version, I could argue on not getting this one and hopefully waiting for a 3rd version (you know there will be another). First time buyer; I’d recommend it. Already have the first; I’d wait, unless your wallet is burning a hole in your pocket and you would also want the aforementioned features.

Comes in a great case for carrying and storage. Works as intended - feels far better than the XBox One controller I was using prior to this. I am using on PC, and the paddles and adjustability of the controller makes fore a great product. Little pricey, but worth the investment if you game at all and need a solid controller.

I really like this controller it feels like it’s made with a high standard of quality. I love all its features like how you can customize the thumb sticks and D-pad and that they are made of metal, not plastic. The battery for me last a long time, I just charged it the first time since it’s initial charge the other day, though I don’t play everyday, so it last pretty long even with vibration on. But the overall build quality is excellent nice rubber grips, metal sticks, and sturdy plastic. This controller when compared to the new Series X controller makes the X feel cheap.

Everything about this device screams quality. I love the feel of it. It seems a little heavier, but overall feels very good in my hands. What blows me away is the battery life. I had gotten used to the older controllers so when I started using this I was surprised that I didn't have to charge after several hours of game play. A few days later, the same. A few days more... It seemed to take forever for me to have to charge the device. I love it! I've had it for a bit and it just consistently performs.

I enjoy this controller a lot more then it’s predecessor. Grip all around were hands are plced. The sticks are even more precise and responsive. Battery life is exceptional playing 4-6 hours on my days off and not having to charge frequently. Having a case with built in charging when setting down controller or having it in case is a great feature. Setting controller up with different button setting is awesome. Haven’t really used as of yet but a nice option. Have only played Call of Duty Warzone so far with this controller. It gives me a huge advantage compared to the standard xbox controller I used. My response time is amazing.

Not a really good gamer, so anything that helps is a plus. First time owning elite series. The controller feels very solid and haven't had any problems like the complaints I have seen online (A button sticking, etc). I think it's helped and my only complaint is I'm not quite used to the paddles--they make it hard to get a good grip without accidentally pressing them. That means I'm accidentally switching your primary weapon to melee while under fire in a FPS match.... :/ I don't plan to disable or remove the paddles because I want to get used to using them. I'm ditching my 2015-era Xbox One for the XBox One-X so let's see how this performs with the new rig!

The Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller for Xbox is easily one of the best controllers you can buy if you’re serious about gaming. It feels substantially more premium than a standard Xbox controller, with a comfortable, thoughtful design that’s built to last and enhance your play.

This is a good premium feeling controller with some good weight to it and the functionality of the adjustments you can make is nice. The only downside is that for this model the paddles in the back and the different sized thumb sticks are not included compared to the higher priced model that come with those accessories. I do love the color options that are available in this version.

Great feel to the sticks, buttons, and triggers. The customization through the console is great if you take the time to adjust everything carefully. I have an older model with the paddles (extra purchase on this model) and I can remove them and put them on this one when I want to. Overall a much better controller than the standard Xbox controller.

great controller, soooo glad i went with this instead of "aim"other brand. heavy, 100% customizable, and durable. Would 100% reccomend.

It is a bit pricey but it’s worth the investment. If the user plans on using it to play all range of game types this has all features to adapt to the players play style.

After using the Xbox elite series controller for about a month now I feel that I can leave a solid and honest review. I have tried and used multiple Xbox controllers that have paddles and are capable of custom button mapping. The xbox app for the Xbox elite series controller allows you to custom map EVERY ASPECT of the controller. So much so that I am able to turn down the responsiveness and speed at which the input for the left and right stick acceleration depending on the parameters that I set. It sets so well and comfortably in my hands. Simply put, it is hands down the best controller i have ever used. Thats including Fusion and Turtle Beach brands. The cost is minimal at best for such a controller in my opinion. I have had to return and exchange numerous controllers that were previously stated. Given the costs (Turtle Beach alone being over $200) of the competitors products and the craftsmanship I had expexted to be set for the foreseeable future, however that was never the case. I have had ZERO issues with my Xbox elite series controller. The battery is PHENOMENAL and the charge time is MINIMAL at best.

Best controller. Proce is a bit high but still worth it. Always get geek squad warranty. Best place ro purchase your controller.

Nice weight, very sturdy and comfortable to use. The only bad side is that these controllers unfortunately do not last! They are great controllers, but must be replaced about every year or so... I've decided it's worth to buy & replace because I actually really like this controller over any other basic wireless ones on the market.

I really love the core controller.I do love the weight of it and the paddle buttons on the bottom for extra buttons. The D-pad has a nice feel and so does the joystick. I do like the battery life. I myself never ran out of power. This one does not come with the case and extra buttons. But you can purchase that seperately. I love the color option of the black and white.

A bit pricey. But overall, this is a good controller. Grips are textured, and do not feel cheap like some other controllers do. The adjustable thumbsticks are awesome and helped me get my aiming under control. Plus, the thumbsticks do not feel like cheap plastic either. The battery life is awesome as well, plus the box comes with a 10 foot charging cord, just no wall plug. Overall, definitely recommend this controller.

You can’t ask for a better controller for Xbox. Its durable, has a built in rechargeable battery, and is customizable to your preference.

it's a good controller used it for years now but every few months I need it replaced due to stick drift or the bumper isnt working. it feels great, good grip love the adjustable triggers and joysticks but paying over 100 for this isn't worth it unless you get a warranty because most likely you're gonna need it later on

Been using these controllers for years and they never disappoint i can be rough on my controllers sometimes and its held up extremely well form all the drops squeezing and carelessness i have towards it gave me a solid 2 years without needing to get it replaced. (Only replacing because i dropped it down my stair case and the trigger got stuck but after some tinkering its all good now)

So far so good after a couple weeks. Its so much nicer than the standard Xbox controllers. Dont see myself being able to go back to them now. Feels much better in the hand, its nice that you can adjust so much with it. From the tension on the sticks to being able to adjust the extra sensitivity setting on it through the xbox. Im loving this controller.
