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.

    Good feel, good weight, great options on control sticks. But the computer diaconnects when you play hardcore gaming pushing multiple buttons at once. For competitive online play that wont work 10 seconds you are vulnerable to be killed.update wont fix.

    I am on my 3rd of these controllers due to buttons breaking, getting stuck, analog drift and other problems. I would recommend waiting until these issues are addressed to buy one. I bought warranty for the first 2 but will not be getting it again WHEN #3 breaks.

    A great cheaply built overpriced device

    Its a great controller that definitely helps give me that competitive edge with the extra 4 programmable paddles. Plus being able to create so many profiles for different games is a great addition. Unfortunately, the LB/RB buttons wear out quickly, honestly too quickly in my opinion, and in competitive gameplay, a button press not registering on a device that is over $200 but purchased in July is atrociously poor quality on Xbox's part. Thankfully, and I highly suggest if you get this device, I had gotten a 2 year replacement plan.

      Hey there,

      We can confirm, the tactical advantage is real! We couldn't be happier to hear your son is enjoying his new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, and that he is seeing an improvement in his gameplay. We built this controller to optimize player performance, and it sounds like we delivered. Thank you for taking a few minutes to share your thoughts with us! We appreciate your feedback!
