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.

    Best controller for gaming. Extremely durable and easy to use, switch or clean. Had it for 3 years and never had a problem. Several people bought this after my recommendation and loved it

    This is actually much better than i expected it to be. The whole setup is very nice and makes you want to take good care of it. The additional pieces to switch between to customise are also very nice, even if you only plan to have them as back up pieces

    Purchased this when I bought my new Xbox . I’ve always wondered if they were worth the money and I found out ! I LOVE IT !! Should have bought one years ago. Programming has stepped up my game and it’s very comfortable. Live the charging cradle / case.

    Theres really wrong with this controller but i would say still get that 2 years protection plan from best buy since it does drift over time. I havent gotten that issue yet but it could drift so get that 2 years.

    Using this on my PC to play Warzone. I haven't purchased any back triggers, but the regular trigger lock, the feel of the controller, and the custom settings in the PC software make it already worth it.

    The Elite Series 2 controller is an excellent alternative to the much more expensive Scuf Instinct controller. The only negative about this controller is the amount of stick drift you can get.

    This controller is AMAZING! I am a long time console gamer, and about 2 years ago I built a gaming PC. Moving over to the keys took some getting used to but once I was comfortable with it, I swore I would never use a controller again. Fast forward to Elden Ring dropping and just seems like the game was MADE FOR controller. So I went and picked up the Xbox Elite and I was super impressed. The build quality is very good, the swappable sticks are all magnets and hold perfectly. The rear buttons also pop on and off without tools giving you the option to remove them if not in use. All of it is packaged in a great carrying case that can be left plugged in via USB C, allowing the controller to charge when in storage. If you are looking for a quality controller, and have been considered this one… BUY IT! You will not be disappointed.

    The customizability you have with this controller is INSANE. The application on the xbox allows for customization of anything from response curves, to completely changing button mapping. Love this controller, although, I haven't gotten better at any games.

    Inner rechargeable battery a huge plus

    I really like the inner rechargeable battery that's now inside, I am just hoping it last long. Or at least if it should stop working it doesn't during my 2 year Geek Squad protection. And the over button modifications are still a plus over a regular Xbox Controller. I just wish the price was a lot cheaper
