Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have a total love hate relationship with this controller. I had my Elite 1 for about two years and it worked great but eventualy the Y button failed and the stick drift was so bad that I upgraded to the elite 2. I also bought one for my 9 year old at the same time, within a few weeks my bumper started failing and stick drift was immediate, It has never not drifted, luckily I play war zone so I just adjust the dead zone and it has no affect in game. Unfortunately I didn't get a warranty with that controller so i bought a second one this time from Best Buy so I could get the warranty. Ironically the one that I got the warranty for has held up great with no problems except it also has stick drift...........

Looks nice and works great. Definitely worth the money.

First and foremost, the build quality is exceptional. From the moment you hold it, the Elite Series 2 exudes durability and sophistication. The matte finish feels premium in hand, and the rubberized grips provide a reassuring hold during even the most intense gaming sessions. It's evident that Microsoft has paid meticulous attention to every detail, ensuring that every component feels solid and well-crafted.

Takes a while to get used to if you’ve never had one but the customization is endless.

Works as it should. Pleased with purchase from Best Buy

Superior to the normal controller plus it can be easily recharged.

Love this controller. Feels great. Looks great. Customizable. Wish it came with at least 2 paddles. All in all great controller.

Love these controllers! Only downside is stick drift after a year or so.

Great controller, love the higher tension thumb sticks and paddles. Make sure you get the added coverage from Best Buy because as with any Microsoft controller, stick drift and button registration becomes an issue.

Great value, had for over a year now. Starting to get a little stick drift but nothing crazy

Have had 2 of these previously they work great for the price never any issues.

I love this controller because it’s very sturdy, and the analog sticks are robust as well. I’m glad this controller comes in multiple colors, and I do recommend it to everyone.

Fantastic upgrade from the Elite 1. The built in rechargeable battery is great and lasts several days of heavy use. The paddles are reconfigured and are a little smaller and I find them more responsive. The build is solid. Dont hesitate.

The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is awesome-super customizable, from the bumpers to the Xbox logo light, To mapping a button for the achievements page, and so much more . It feels great in my hands and really steps up my gaming. But here’s the problem: I paid for an “excellent” open box controller, expecting almost new quality, but got one with broken buttons and bumpers. Support told me I had to drive an hour to return it, which just isn’t doable with my night shifts and being a single dad. I wish they’d let me ship it back or at least offered some money back for the hassle and receiving the cheaper controller. Awesome controller, but the buying experience was a letdown.

Love it! Excellent controller and much better than the original. After a year I am starting to get a little stick drift which is annoying

Upgraded to this controller after my regular one died. This one is great. The paddles make for quicker gameplay and the battery lasts all day easily. Plus it feels more solid than the regular ones.

Love this controller the grip the easy exchange of paddles

This is one of if not the best controller I’ve ever owned. The grip helps with perspiration, the paddles on the back help with gameplay, and the interchangeable thumb sticks are good for different games. I recommend this controller fully.

Great controller works better than i thought would recommend

Definitely not the perfected version, but the elite offers improved comfort, functionality, and durability that comp and pro players need.
