Customer Ratings & Reviews

My 10yr old son what was the remote don’t think he’ll ever go back to the regular remote after having this one. He likes that you can change the joystick pieces to his comfort and the paddles on the bottom of the remote great. The battery last a long time I am usually charge it for him after three days of use I don’t think it’s ever been dead since he got it and when he plays on for a long time, so it’s definitely quality remote anybody who’s looking for a good remote definitely get this one.

Initially I was pained at the thought of buying a controller for this price. However, once I opened the box it became apparent to me just why the price was high; this controller is bulletproof. Amazing quality of materials, very very comfortable, incredibly customizable. This controller will last you years and years easily. Only downside is that it is not currently compatible with iPad. I stream my PC to my iPad for gaming, and was disappointed as a result. Amazing controller though!

Such a great controller. Bought for a Christmas gift. He can easily such between using it on his Xbox to his computer. I've had one for two years now and haven't had any issues with drifting, or batteries draining.

Great controller. I've tried multiple 3rd party controllers and always come back to the Elite series 2.

I've been skeptical over the years in paying the hefty price for an elite controller, but finally jumped the gun when they announced the series 2... and I'm glad i did. This controller has great ergonomics and grip texture, along with a plethora of features and settings, including hair trigger settings, multiple sticks, mapping, 4 quadrant vibrating settings, e.t.c. well worth it if you are a competitive gamer. No problems with drifting so far. Love that you can adjust the tension of the sticks as well.. overall, a great product from Microsoft!

So one of my favorite controllers to use I enjoy the back battle features it improves the feeling of gaming. Controller has been very good. I haven’t had any stick drift in any other issues that I’ve had without controllers.

Size and grips on the controller feel great. Paal shifters on the bottom perfect placement have been using elite controllers for a few years now one of the best controllers I’ve ever had. I prefer an elite controller over a scuff.

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.

Easily the best controller for more competitive gamers. I purchased the Scuf before this, and was quite disappointed after the left joystick started sticking (not drift, just stuck in the down position) within 3 months of purchase. It was also a bit of a pain (and limited) to program the pads. Then I purchased the Elite S2, and what a difference it made. The magnetic, interchangeable joysticks are a breeze to swap (have to take the whole faceplate off the Scuf). The rear pads are programmable through the Xbox UI, offer more combinations to progrsm, and can save up to three independent configurations for different games or styles (a button on the controller lets you flip between the three without having to go through the UI). And the trigger adjustments are quick and easy to adjust on the fly. My only issue with this controller is stick drift, hence the markdown. While it did hold up well for 10-11 months, I had to send it in to Microsoft for a replacement at the 11th month (Best Buy didn't have any at the time). I did get a replacement after a little over a week, but it was equally bad, if not worse within two weeks. Fortunately, Best Buy had a resupply and I was able to get a new one. A near $200 controller should not fail like that in less than a year. I get that nothing lasts forever, but the gimbles should be better quality for a premium controller. That said, the S2 is worth the purchase if you are into more competitive gaming, however, buy the extended warranty. Will definitely be worth it in the long run.

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

Solid controller.. everything felt high quality and a lot of ways to customize.. the only reason i returned it is because i want to try a controller with paddles beside each other versus on top of each other...

Battery life is amazing with lightning fast response. Fits perfect in hand with quality feeling material. Game changer!

My favorite controller to use for gaming. I literally use it everyday. Want another one too.

I really really like the series 2 in every way but this is my 2nd one. Hopefully it doesn't have stick drift like the last one. My series one went through 5 of the first series with same issue. I dont drop or throw controllers. I use them and set them on the charger. At $180 i take care of them! They are the best controllers out there. (When they work). Get the extended warranty. Its totally worth it.

I like being able to program the A,B,X,Y buttons to the bottom levers

The controller feels great and gives you a competitive advantage in FPS games. The only issue is that not longer after use, you get some stick drift and the bumpers feel like they’re going out. It’s too expensive to go out as quickly as it does.

A must have if you are playing at a competative level on console , the paddles are awsome because you get to play more effeciently and the controller feels very premium

It’s a solid cool controller very comfortable to hold a bit heavy but awesome well built. Has a long battery life for long gaming sessions.

This is a colorful and durable gaming controller. It is very responsive to my pc games. Comfortable in the palm of my hands, and it was simple to get up and running quickly.

Good controller for those who game a lot. Comfortable to use and works well.
