Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options, along with its comfortable feel and good weight. However, a significant concern among users is the prevalence of stick drift and issues with button quality, particularly with the bumpers and A button. The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

    this controller is amazing, the build quality, materials, buttons, everything is very solid. however there is a massive flaw in the design. the sticks cannot be clicked in while tilted at an angle, I read online this was a common issue and can be fixed by unscrewing the stick counter clock wise slightly, however if you do this just 1mm too much it will be lose and freely spin, and tightening it will result in the same issue being unable to click the stick in. the solution for this was to take the controller faceplate off which is very annoying to do and held down but pointless adhesive and put a .5mm thick 4mm inner diameter jump ring around the stick and then screw the stick back on. the process is very annoying for an almost $200 controller when ms knows the issue and refuses to redesign such a simple fix, but it now feels perfect

    As someone who has played the original Xbox, I gotta say that this, this is the best feeling and responsive controller I've ever felt. Feels premium to something that you're used to. Can't wait to use it for other games since I recently build my PC. Now, i'm going to play Halo: Master Chief Edition to reminisce on childhood experiences.

    This controller change my life! With its different ways to make your controller a FPS type of controller to a casual type with its different types of customization of the triggers, back buttons, swappable L and R sticks and the 3 different profiles ! I have and apex legends and a Minecraft one! You can also change the LED color on the Xbox logo to have a more noticeable difference between profiles.

    best controller i’ve used for an xbox out right now. it has a weight to it which makes it feel more like a quality controller and the accessory swapping feature is a must have! durability could be better but i almost expect to go through controllers at a slightly faster then average rate because of how competitively i play.

    No real flaw to point out to be honest! Too many features to count! I could go into all the perks but I don’t want to write that long lol… I’ll mention my favorite feature which is the fact you can adjust the analog from being tight too loose amazing feature! The rest you can see just by clicking on the controller and viewing!

    I got it as an open box, because they have a lot of them. It came with everything In the box, and works amazingly. I definitely recommend going open box, but if none are available, go for the normal one. It's got a weight to it, The joystick tension is adjustable Paddles are all remappable. Interchangable steel pieces You can even change the color of the logo I use the trigger adjusters most. 9/10, wish it came with the original box, but it was open box, so its what it is.

    I love the elite series 2 controller. The textured grips are amazing. It took a while to get used to having paddles under the controller but they are easily removable if you want. Would highly recommend this.

    It was a very good controller over the time I had it. Over the span of a year it broke down. The right bumper slowly stopped working even after many attempts to fix it. Other than that it was a very good controller.

    This controller is a game changer, being able to do multiple things at once with the paddles really improves how well you perform. Also being able to fine tune the controllers triggers and analog helps with being able to react much quicker when getting shot in games. It was a bit difficult for me to figure out what settings I wanted for certain games but the best way to find settings for me was to search up settings for specific games and then adjusting it to my liking. Overall positive experience.
