I love how the controller feels in my hands and the ability to adjust my buttons to my needs. Cant play without it

If you've used the Series 1 Elite Controller, you know all the benefits it has over the standard Xbox One controllers. The paddles will change the way you play shooters if you just take the little bit of time to get used to them. The Series 2 controller makes the paddles a bit more tactile and they have more of a click to them. The thumbsticks have 3 levels of tension adjustment to make them feel like a default Xbox One controller, an Xbox 360 controller, or something in between. The bumpers have been improved, and the new grips are built in a way to where they won't expand and fall off like the old version did. The Elite Series 1 controller was the best controller I ever used and my favorite to play with, but this controller has replaced the old version. I would definitely recommend this controller to anyone who enjoys playing competitive shooters and wants to take their game to the next level.

I like the interchangeable D-Pad and removable triggers, It took a while to get use to setting up the different profiles and programming them but over all I like it.

This controller is great! Love the adjustable to ensuon on the thumbsticks. Feels sturdy and controls are snappy. Shoulder buttons feel a bit flimsy, probably wouldn't survive landing directly on them in a fall, but that is no different than any other MS controller. Handle grips feel a bit sticky, but easy to grasp overall. Battery life is absolutely insane! Used it for 2 weeks on a full charge before it even indicated it was running low. Would recommend!

Hard to go back after using this controller, best feel out of any i have tried and the customizable options are great.

I love this controller! It’s the best Xbox controller for sure! The best part is the paddles in the back that you can set to be any button on the controller. It’s gives you the ultimate advantage against your opponent!

Love this controller so far! Hoping i dont run into same issues as past versions

Looks nice and works great. Definitely worth the money.

Purchased for my Daughter. Long battery life. Good quality. We always buy the 2 year warranty with the gaming accessories.

Great settings, feel, look etc. But for some reason there was Huge Input Delay. Completely unplayable, had to return and get a base controller that had no issues.

Works as it should. Pleased with purchase from Best Buy

Very sturdy. Doesn’t feel cheap. Nice weight, that makes you feel like you’re really in the game. Built in battery is very convenient and long lasting. Customizing and tweaking to your preferences makes it the best available controller out there.

Fast , easy , got what i wanted .nice discount compaired to normal cost

Superior to the normal controller plus it can be easily recharged.

This controller is so close to perfect! The back buttons easy to use & not obtrusive, everything feels higher quality than the normal Xbox controller, but the stick drift is ridiculous!! Stick drift has become synonymous with the Elite controllers so I was hesitant to justify the price tag, but the Elite 2 seemed to be the most user-friendly option in the “pro-controller” market. I’ve seen people say they they’ve had theirs for 2+ years without drift issues so I was hopeful to say the least. First week was a dream come true! The added functionality from the back buttons made me realize I’ve been playing at a huge disadvantage for the last couple years. I don’t think I can ever go back to playing FPS games without back buttons, the idea seems so cumbersome now. Around my 2nd week of use I started to notice some slight drift on the left stick. It was barely noticeable & easily corrected so I didn’t think much of it. Fast forward 1 more week and I notice the same thing from my right stick. Barely noticeable, but enough to make me start regretting my purchase. I’ve barely had the Elite 2 controller for a full month & the drift is only getting worse. I love the back buttons SO MUCH that I really don’t want to put it down, but if the stick drift keeps getting progressively worse at this same rate than I will only get another 2-3 weeks of use out of it. This controller does everything right when it comes to offering a premium level “pro-controller” but if the stick drift turns it into a $200 paperweight after 2 months then it’s hardly a justifiable purchase. I’m hopeful Microsoft can turn this around, the biggest talking point of the Elite 2 to-this-day is the stick drift issues. If they can resolve this, then they will arguably have the best option on the market for a premium controller.

I bought this controller to replace a previous Elite Controller that succumbed to severe stick drift and a battery that wouldn’t hold a charge. I wasn’t looking forward to paying full price for an Elite controller, so was very glad to find this one. It doesn’t come with all the bells and whistles of my previous controller but i didnt really need them since those same accessories and case from my previous controller all wotk with this one. I also wasn’t sure if i liked the white on black color scheme but it really works and this controller feels just as sold as my old one. Very pleased with this purchase.

Bought this one for my son as a gift and he has not stop using it. The quality and ability to modify it is incredible

Love these controllers! Only downside is stick drift after a year or so.

I’ve had this controller for over a year now almost 2 years and use it almost every day on my computer, not once have I experienced issues with drift or buttons failing, the quality is really nice feels very solid and the interchangeable buttons to swap is a nice feature and I love the triggers adjustments you can do

My fiancé bought me this controller for a Christmas present and i love it. How it made and feels in my hands is incredible. No stick drifting smoth button everything i look for in a controller. Im getting use to the paddles on the back. Would recommend for any gamer.
