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.

    Katie instantly went up due to the trigger adjustments. I'm coming from a PS5 controller on PC. I got to get used to the rest of the other features but I really like it

    My Series 1 Elite controller finally gave out after 5 years. I replaced it with the Series 2 and I am so glad I did. The joystick sensitivity adjustments make gaming so much better. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone thinking about upgrading from any Xbox controller.

    Controller works fantastic! One slight problem is the y button likes to double press during rocket league. But other than that it works great!

    I was a little unhappy about this not coming with the paddles, but that is probably on me for not reading the description well enough. But selling them separately is an idiotic premise!

    I'd recommend the regular controller for the price

    You'll be just fine with the regular controller. This might be one of the most overpriced video game accessories I've ever purchased, even at a reduced rate.

    If you like things being broken out of the box, then wowee have I got a product for you. I've had 3 of these things so far and I'm not sure how much I want a 4th.. EVERY SINGLE ONE of these things has had a problem with the left thumbstick. Not just 'oh a problem', but a very specific, 100% reproducable problem. Can confirm using the xbox accessories app. First one, with in a month of unboxing the left thumbstick would produce a random input, it would move the direction you pushed it but give a random value; up was the worst. You could barely walk around. It was awful. Second one had the same issue immediately upon opening. Third one I've had for almost 3 months and now the left thumbstick is producing random input values for left and right. Sometimes right is worse, sometimes left is worse. Depends on the day. Up and down have a different problem, sometimes when you give the stick a quick flick and release, the input value slowly returns back to center instead of instantly. Needless to say, this is marketed as a top shelf, high quality, precision/competitive controller and it's more of a sloppy mess. It's impossible to play rocket league at a champ level with this thing. Apex feels like I'm ice skating all the time and you can't strafe left or right reliably, making you an easy target for even the noobiest of noobs. The best part is, its never a problem with anything else; right thumbstick works perfect, rear buttons are flawless, face buttons are decent (sometimes they double press when you push it once, it's fairly rare tho and could be an xbox live bug since I can pin point it to certain screens usually an on screen keyboard) love the triggers, the dual stage trigger locks are amazing, bumpers feel nice, can store 3 presets, thumb sticks have an adjustable tension attribute, which I honestly think is the cause of the random values. Controller is comfortable, grips are little bit slippery but I don't mind that. I'd rather have a working left thumbstick. For the $180 I spent I expected perfection. I'm pretty sure I'm either going to get a scuff for xb1 or I'm going to get a scuff for ps4 and run 3rd party software to hook the ps4 controller up to my xb1. I've seen the same 3 ps4 controllers get thrown at a tile floor, repeatedly, by 2 different children and it's like nothing even happened. I'm confident this elite 2 would be in 15 pieces if I let them treat it the same. (It wasnt btw, I treat it like a kings crown, never dropped, only handled when necessary, used the d-pad instead of thumb sticks for scrolling menus, etc.)

    On the second one the first one was extremely faulty. But it’s a nice controller but there are other options over this one.

    I just bought the series x bundle and wanted a more high tech controller and this is it ! In my opinion this is better than a scuf custom controller . Between the added accessories and design of this controller you can’t go wrong .
