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.

      Hi there,

      We're sorry that there's an issue with the A button on your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. Every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty from Microsoft so we urge you to reach out to Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,

    Got this for my son, as for he had the series 1 awhile back. He loves it, says it makes his gaming easier. Good for more experienced players who are on a lot, not worth it for minimal use.

    The features on this compared to the original are night and day. Playing shooting games it makes the hugest difference I've played with this controller for about 120 hours and it's very beneficial to have.

    I got excited when I saw that I could get an elite controller in a color other than black, but was immediately disappointed when I realized it did not come with paddles. Hello XBox, the entire reason people purchase these is for the paddles. I was fine having to buy a new one every couple of years, but buying an "accessory kit" separate is a joke and really shows that you do not know your customers at all.

    Had to return it twice. Luckily I got the geek squad protection plan. Buttons start to Stick. Left and right stick loosen after a couple months. After a couple months some buttons become unresponsive. I love the concept and paddle placement but the overall quality is very poor. Would not recommend this product unless you purchase the geek squad protection plan. The controller didn’t even last a year.

    I’m a huge fan of this controller but most people I know have had to get a new one within a year. If you buy, make sure to purchase the warranty for sure!
