Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    I have purchased two of these and both are starting to having issues. One controller randomly disconnects from my Xbox and the other is starting to have stick drift issues. They work great, but definitely buy GSP.

      Hi Adrian,

      We're sorry that your new Xbox Elite Wireless Controllers are experiencing issues. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft; if they're still within the warranty period, we recommend contacting Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    It’s a very overpriced controller That’s really awesome I had the original one and the grips came off after a year. The new version seems to be holding up well and the wireless charging is nice

    Excellent controller... The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 feels a lot better than the included controller in the Series X/S and seems more like a true "next gen" controller.

    I own the Elite pro 2 remote and basically this is the same controller without the extra paddles. However, of you already own an Elite pro 2, you can use the attachments from it on this one which saves you a few dollars.

    It works.Y button is a little loose but It does not bother me. Microsoft knows about it but I guess it does not bother them as well. Lol.

    I had the gen 1 elite and loved it so naturally I purchased the gen 2 and immediately fell in love with this one just as much as I did with the first one. The controller feels comfortable while playing for long amounts of time with the rubber grips all around and I love the fast charge with the new usb-c charger.

    This is the best controller, unfortunately the rubber pads don’t last that long, maybe 10-11 months for heavy use (20 hrs a week), my advice, add the geek squad warranty, totally worth it. For that reason I don’t do the 5 starts
