Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great controller. The battery holds its charge. Comfortable to hold while playing gamea.

One thing to consider about this product is that the thumb sticks will wear out over time after each use, resulting in a common issue in controllers called "stick drift" which is currently inevitable. Microsoft has yet to manufacture perfect thumb sticks that will not cause this issue. Other than that, everything else about this controller is perfect.

Needes to update mine that i hade got 3 years and only because i was grtting some stick drift. Great product

Really nice feel and touch, premium but a little to high priced but it’s worth on how long it will last.

Would recommend for competitive gamers, for casuals who are just looking for a controller I’ll say this is expensive for your needs. Crazy helpful in certain games where you don’t want to constantly take your thumb off the analog stick. Great customization options like response curves, trigger and analog deadzones, trigger locks, analog tension and you can set custom profiles for specific games.

I’ve had this one for quite some time now. No issues with stick drift yet, can be pretty difficult to keep clean though. All in all, great product.

Love this controller best part about it is the paddles on the back. High quality feel

Nice feel, great grip and heft. Also comes with a very nice charging cradle.

I use this with my steam deck and it works beautifully with the games that I play.

Works well! Wish the thumbsticks held in better as one fell out and got lost during travel.

I did not know that you can charge the controller while it is in the case. Nice feature. Only feature it doesn't have that I would like is an auto rapid press feature.

This is a great update to the first one. Finally uses USB-C. I can’t tell the difference in feel like some other say but you do notice a difference in the joysticks which is a great upgrade. The battery lasts about the same amount of time but I’m not a great example of this because I don’t play everyday. My only complaint is I think they are just to expensive and don’t see why they need to be almost $200. These should be more closer to $100-$130 range!

The smaller size fits my hands better. The programmable keys are sweet.

You just met your dream partner, they do everything you love and more. They feel great, are there for you in times of need, flexible with your needs for customization and you take care of them providing shelter, hygiene and energy. But after the honey moon phase is over you just can’t count on they anymore. They begin missing key inputs, drifting away from where your goal is and you start to think of a replacement after 5-8 months. Was your money and time worth just these great few months? This controller is awesome off the back. Being an elite buyer since day 1 it’s hands down the best model. I play daily and clean my controller weekly. However, whether it’s a series 1 or series 2 the same problems with stick drift or failed bumper input still occur. The geek squad plan is unbeatable but with consistent issues these will never make it worth the price. Recommended for casual gamer, not competitive daily user.

Great controller with excellent features. Only problem, is the issues these controllers tend to develop. Personally, I have gone through at least half a dozen of these controllers since they debuted. Stick drift is a gaurentee. Pretty smooth out of the box, but eventually, they'll break in and its not pretty. Bumpers usually are the next to fail. Haven't had issues with the series 2, as far as rubber grips peeling off. Microsoft has been aware of these issues for quite some time. Doesn't seem like they care, even with the looming class-action lawsuit over these contollers. For the price point, I wouldn't say these are worth it. Only reason i bought another one over the Turtle Beach Stealth, is the elite can still accomadate for the M80 mixamp for Astro A40's. For a little extra $, get something with Hall-effect sticks. They dont break as easy.

The Xbox elite series 2 is a fantastic controller with built in grip pads for sweaty players, it also provides for back paddles that can be mapped to your personnel needs and has replaceable joy sticks! If your looking to enhance your gaming experience this is your go to product!

Great controller. They helped me pick the right one for me. Great service yet again.

This controller is the very best one in the market and now with this aforable price its an easy recommendation for anyone wanting a pro controller with the option to get all the extra fearures down the line, but for starters just the trigger stops, internal battery and comfort I think is well worth it.

I have owned 3 elite controllers previous to this and all had very similar issues so I was definitely skeptical. I’ve now had it a couple months and I can’t stop raving about it! The improved buttons and hair triggers are very convenient and the quality of the grips has clearly been brought up! But the best feature is the internal battery! I’ve had to charge it only twice! No more batteries and endless hours of gameplay! Best controller I’ve ever owned period.

Love the Xbox controller and had to get an elite 2. Paddles are very customizable and it feels like what its worth. Only controller that can compete with the PS5 controller. Super comfortable. Only complaint is if your hands are cold or not sweaty it has a slippery grip. Aside from that, can't be beat. Def would get warranty cause there are lots of cases that have joy sticks drifting.
