Customer Ratings & Reviews

Best official Xbox controller around. Love the paddles and adjustability of certain aspects. Main dislike is the seemingly short lifespan of the sticks. Very common issue.

Phenomenal controller. It is heavier than the standard controller so it has a nice feel in your hands while gaming. And the battery life is outstanding

I’ve been using it since January 2021 it is the control you can count on to do the job. Super comfortable the battery runs and runs. No hiccup's just perfect

Great feel great controller i had the elite series 2 and the left bumper was acting up but still have all the parts so the core was great because it comes with nothing but the controller. I love the white as well

This controller works great, feels good, the adjustable thumbstick tension is awesome. Would purchase again.

While heavier than many other controllers, including other cheaper Xbox controllers, it remains comfortable and the battery life is impressive.

Great controller that is responsive and feels like a high quality product. I've tried other brands of controllers with paddle buttons, and preferred this one. It is more expensive than I would like, but it is noticeably better than the stock controllers.

This is the best controller I've ever had, and I'm not just saying that. Has the best grip, joystick feel and customization out of any I've tried before, and the charging dock it comes with it simply magical. Highly recommended to pro and casual gamers alike!

This Xbox controller really does make a difference in game play. It may be slightly heavier that regular controller, but the accuracy makes the difference. I would recommend this controller over the regular one any day.

Quality build with all the features it advertises. Battery life is great. The ease of syncing to new devices and the compatibility range is good

Overall a great controller. Tons of customization in both hardware and software. Minus one star as the left stick has major drift issues. It's being taken care of Microsoft under warranty, but requires sending it out before a replacement is sent back.

It’s really good it feels comfortable. I have no issues with it works great. The only problem I had that it doesn’t like work with Bluetooth with my PC but I think I have a bad Bluetooth receiver on my PC so that is not something I have against the controller I plug. It’s a braided wire that comes with it and it works really great. Mind you it is a cheaper version of the elite so it doesn’t come with the back paddle. You have to buy those separately, but I don’t actually use them much so I don’t worry about it.

From the weight, the tactile grips, the precision of the joysticks... i love this controller. I use on both xbox and PC.

nice solid build, so far so good The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Controller is a premium gaming controller that offers a variety of features to enhance your gaming experience. With customizable buttons, adjustable thumbstick tension, and swappable D-pads, this controller allows you to tailor it to your preferences. The controller also has durable build quality and a rechargeable battery for convenience. Overall, the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Controller is a great choice for gamers looking for a high-quality, customizable controller.

My son brought this. He says he likes it and has a good grip. This is the second one he has purchased from Best Buy.

It is great controller, very comfortable, build quality is outstanding, customization is fantastic, but the most important for me - battery life is super. It is expensive - but from my point of view totally worth it.

This is hands down the best controller ive ever held/used. It beats out anything playstation, nintnedo, even third parties have to offer. Rubberized grip around the fronts and back so your hands will never slip, customizable back paddles for FPS/Racing games is a must, three different profiles that can be saved for stick sensitivity and more. Also really bice that it comes with an extremely durable case that has a hard shell on the outside with a magnetic charging stand and awappable sticks on the inside. I also bought the warranty just in case but i take care of my stuff so we’ll see if i end up needing to replace them. So far so good.

I never do reviews, but I guess I’m starting. I love these controllers. Works perfectly on Xbox or PC + paddles. But. As the price gets higher the quality becomes more of an issue. 3rd controller that has fallen apart, this one did last a good year and a half which I’m happy about but this controller specifically the grip around it absolutely wears out before the first year of use. 2 of the controllers I’ve had plastic breaks inside the controller without raging being involved (hasn’t effected use). The response mechanism for the triggers is probably the worst, maybe works for a week and wears its self out unless you’re super soft on the triggers all the time. It’s just no longer worth the cost when it seems it’s only designed to last until the warranty runs out. I don’t care to buy new controllers obviously but “premium” controllers should be able to withstand heavy use and not naturally fall apart within a year. IMO.

Best controller on the market. By far better than the scuff controller. Long battery life. Super easy to configure and has good weight not cheap plastic.

Fantastic controller except for how quickly it developed stick drift. Love the weight, and extra buttons, but the stick drift is going to be the death of me!!!
