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.

    The best controller for Xbox hands down. The ease of use and modularity are amazing and things that I didn’t know I needed. I won’t be going back to a regular controller anytime soon.

    If you're going to game for 3 or more hours a day and have long sessions, the Elite controller is a must. There are cheaper ways to go, but this is an excellent controller.

    I’ve had it for about a year and it’s served me well but the left toggle has already stopped working properly as of a couple of days ago. Overall I love it and I’ll be getting another one. Hopefully Microsoft has improved their parts for it.

    Good controller but didn’t last long. My son gets a lot of wear and tear on controllers but I was hoping this higher end one would be more durable

    The controller is really nice, the only thing s that the placement of the paddels suck. Its really easy to accidentally push them and its makes it really hard to play with them

    Not a bad controller. If you are using it on a daily basis I would go with a scuff and learn 2 paddle as it’s more reliable

    It’s good everything works fairly well but there is some occasional delay when pressing a button and I know it’s the controller because my basic controller never has any issues with any kind of delay.

    Really nothing bad to say about the controller. But the app to configure it s TERRIBLE!!!! Its laggy, takes forever to load and sometimes completely crashes the xbox; I’m currently staring at a black screen because I was trying to use the app to configure the controller.

    Extra functionality does not compensate for bulk.

    The extra paddle functionality is a nice touch. Not the best in ergonomic design. It is a bit bulkier than what I prefer. A bit more stream lined design in the area of the finger-to-palm grip.

    Best controller but with internal issues

    Hands down the best controller on the market, but the durability is not great for the price. This is my second elite controller and my last one only lasted 6.5months and developed “drift” in the left stick. This is where there is a delay in the controller registering moving forward causing a delay or causing the stick to get stuck in that position. And come to find out Xbox only offers a 6 month warranty and it costs a $100 out of warranty to send it back with no eta on when you will get it back. So ended up buying a new one but adding the $40 for the geek squad protection so I won’t have to deal with Microsoft and their awful customer service going forward bc sadly I can’t go back to using a standard controller.

    The WORST controller yet.

    Now, I WILL say the new features are fantastic. Being able to program the paddles as "Shift" buttons, the adjustable tension sticks among other things...but it still doesn't redeem the fact that the build quality is HORRIBLE. I'm on my FIFTH S2....yup, number 5. Drift, sticky buttons, disconnections or worse ALL out of the box. It's unbelievable how Microsoft has messed up a great opportunity.

    Elite 2 controller is awesome. Doesn’t come with the paddles so if you don’t have those, you can’t use it to it’s full extent. It is definitely worth the purchase though
