Customer Ratings & Reviews

When new, the controller works fantastically. Key phrase is WHEN NEW. This is the 3rd elite controller that I am now going to have to replace because of stick drift, sticky buttons, and the headphone jack not working. Each controller started showing these issues just a few months in. You're probably thinking "Okay no problem, I'll just pay for the Best Buy 2 year warranty, then I can get a new controller whenever I want". HAHA good luck EVER finding them in stock. THEY WON'T EVEN ORDER THEM FROM MICROSOFT FOR YOU. My controller has been a piece of garbage for a couple of months now, but can't get it replaced thanks to Best Buy's constant lack of inventory on them. I have the listing bookmarked and check daily to see if they have any in stock, and they never do. Overall I do NOT recommend this controller for any gamer. Only reason I gave two stars is the controller is very nice when its brand new out of the box. However, you will regret it when you pay this much money and are without a useable controller for months at a time, after only using the thing for a couple of months.

The controller it self is a piece of art, confortable 110%, fully customizable, feels great to the touch. Only problem so for is the Bluetooth that keeps disconnecting randomly

Exactly what i expected! I love that it some with different left and right stick pad options and the option to change the force it takes to press the triggers down! 10/10 recommend!

I have had the series 1 since it released years ago. For the price and time it felt like a good upgrade over standard controllers. I still have it but have since passed it down to my kids because the Series 2 is better. The build quality is better; the sticks are not as loose; the buttons are better and there are now 3 settings for the trigger pull. I appreciate the built in battery. The case also doubles as a charger so you can just set the remote in it and walk away. What I noticed immediately are less aggressive paddles compared to Series 1. The original paddles hung out too far for me and my fingers would bump them all the time. My only issue I have so far is connecting it via Bluetooth to my PC. I was able to finally get it linked, but it took too long and I have little faith regarding input lag. I have opted to use it wired to my PC.

I love the feel of this controller. The extra buttons have a bit of a learning curve, as well as setup. This controller adds plenty of customization for the hardcore gamer.

I’m love this controller. One problem though, the bumpers do not last as long as the rest of the parts. Still the best in the market though!

Great gaming tool for the kids. They enjoy the controller!

The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is the Xbox one controller at it's best. The weight and feel of the controller is superior to the default Xbox One controller. Can't go back after using this

I never have to use the regular buttons. Fully mapped them to the back paddles and the two extra shoulder ones. Fits well, comfortable, battery lasts decently long. No complaints.

Feels great must have controller I’ve literally never used a better controller ever

I had the elite v1 for a little over a year before moving to the v2. Overall, the v2 is a much higher quality controller than the v1 with only one downside when compared to the v1. The v1 used a membrane style for its button mechanisms in both the joysticks and the paddles, however the v2 uses more of a clicky button style mechanism. In the v1 the signal pulses consistently, however, in the v2, sometimes the signal stops pulsing which requires me to then reset the button by pressing it again, this behavior never happened to me when i uses the v1. That said, the membrane style in the v1 controller wore out very quickly. The v2 mechanism still feels brand new even though I’ve been playing with it daily since it was released. Finally, if i had to choose between the v1 and v2, given my post above i would still pick the v2 because of the build quality and durability.

Honestly like the weight, and feel. It doesn't come with the paddles or dock but you won't miss them.

Wouldn’t use another controller! Highly recommend to any Xbox players

Have a couple of PS5 Dual Sence controllers but no matter what you do on PC, they are rarely compatible with most games. So, i had my eye on this for a while. Finally took the plunge and so glad I did! Perfectly compatible on PC. Comes with everything you need including a charger.

Excellent quality, remapping buttons are super easy with the Xbox Accessories app. Ultra high quality materials, buttons, and paddles. Rechargeable battery is long lasting. Price is pretty steep, but 100% worth it if you are serious about gaming

[Employee of bestbuy] Great if you already owned an elite series 2. Recommend the warranty

Love this controller. Feels great. Looks great. Customizable. Wish it came with at least 2 paddles. All in all great controller.

Amazing no complaints great atmosphere. Someone always willing to help.

Definitely not the perfected version, but the elite offers improved comfort, functionality, and durability that comp and pro players need.

The paddles and customization make this a must-have controller!! The weight also feels =very good in hand.
