Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have owned this for a month. I will updated if I have any issues in the coming months. I did not own the series 1 so I can not compare. I also do not play everyday, but more like 3 days a week and I have not had to charge the controller a second time yet. My favorite feature is the tighter tension on the thumbtacks and the hair triggers. I have no buttons that stick and they all register with a normal push. Nice heavy feel to the controller. The charge dock is a huge bonus and love that you are able to charge it in the case. No complaints yet. Highly recommended.

Amazing feel and customizable paddles. The battery life is also very amazing and best of all if already has type c USB built into it.

The best controller by far. I wont ever use another controller. The lifespan of one of these is about 3 years so if you feel thats worth it just keep it in mind. I am a heavy user and the onyl thing that went wrong on mine was a single back paddle was only responding 80% of the time

All parts were included in this open box item. Works well with my Desktop and laptop to allow me to play several games as I am still not comfortable with mouse and keyboard.

Best controller on the market! This might be the best thing Microsoft has ever created. No other controller comes close to its perfection. Only wish it worked on all consoles.

Look, bottom line, if you're serious about gaming, you need the Microsoft Elite Series 2 in your life. It's like upgrading your gaming experience from regular to legendary. Comfort? Check. Style? Double-check. Customization? Triple-check. This controller is the real deal, my fellow gamers. Don't miss out – it's a game-changer in every sense.

The best controller in the game. Perfect for anyone that feels all the Xbox controllers are fragile.

What I needed when I needed it pickup was a breeze!!

Overall great product for long hours of gaming! Feels very sturdy and tough for accidental drops. Has interchangeable parts and excellent performance with no lag in input. Textured grips are very good when playing long hours.

Good controller get the protection plan right bumper failed on me 3 times now but it’s my go to.

This is the only controller we use. We are a gaming family and have 3 of these controllers. We love them and having Best Buy total tech is convenient to getting them fixed if need be.

Great controller but the buttons tend to stop working and you get stick drift alot. Microsoft needs to rework these controllers big time. They do have great battery life though. Buy a warranty on this because after a year you will need another controller.

Weights good, the grip is better, interchangeable sticks and d pad is better, and the paddles are amazing. If you can learn to use them naturally in the way you can map them to different buttons. You can become a great player

I love this controller, has it for about two years now and I still love it, it’s my favorite controller in my house.

Great controller very sturdy and can adjust to your comfort it even comes with a little tool to loosen or tighten each stick and if you drop it they fall out instead of break it’s brilliant

This is an excellent controller and entirely customizable for personal use or even special use cases in games you want different control styles. It is built like a brick s-house. The problems arise when connected to PC to game as advertised. The connection drop outs using bluetooth are infuriating. And yet, even with the cost, I refuse to use anything else. I even bought a second one for the game room in the basement. They are just that good. Certain games will have connection drops, such as Halo Infinite Campaign, AC Vallhalla, and Cyber Punk 2077. Some of those titles have somehow fixed the issue (or it has stopped happening to me at least) but some games persist in dropping connection. And its not a battery thing, or a pc problem. Its the actual controller signal. Heres the thing though, its worth the few headaches. I cant imagine not using these to game. They also have a great feature to allow more than one connection. You can connect it to your PC and if you want to quickly swap to an already connected xbox series x then you douple tap the tiny connection button and it should swap control to the new device as long as you have previously setup that connection. Well.made, accurate response, smooth triggers that can customize travel distance, extra paddles can be installed on the back, shoulder buttons are the best you have ever used, and the sticks have zero dead zone issues. Its an expensive beast, but it is worth it. You wont ever pickup the base contoller again once using the elite 2. Plus, it charges using usb c

Overall a good controller with back paddles. It is a plus if you are looking for added weight in comparison to the standard controller. The back paddles need some time to get used to. The most important feature to me is that the sticker click can be disabled.

I need it a controller for a gift to my nephew and he loves it i try it my self and controller is fantastic

Great upgrade to the previous Elite. I had an issue with the left joystick on the Elite 1. Swapped it for the Elite 2 and have been super impressed! Microsoft got smart and made this controller a rechargeable unit. It comes with a charging dock ad well. Best part...the battery life is GREAT! The controller feels very substantial in your hand and isn't flimsy AT ALL. I highly recommend! Make sure to get the Geek Squad warranty...just in case. Its totally worth it. Especially when you're spending this kind of cash on a controller!
