Customer Ratings & Reviews

I did lots of research before purchasing and had it narrowed down to this controller and a Scuff prestige. After purchasing the elite I am very happy I went with it. The customization of the controls is great and the feel of the controller in your hand is just what I was looking for.

Solid controller. I would strongly recommend. Also, the battery life is great

Love the feel of this controller. The rubbery grips give a better tactile feel. Slightly heavier, but not so much it feels uncomfortable. Haven’t played with adjustments just yet but the options of swapping out buttons is a definite plus.

Love not wasting batteries to play games and good quality

I love my new controller it’s super comfortable and the color is perfect.

Great controller! I've used it since it came out and has been great. The customization is easy, back paddles are very convenient to use, and the grip makes sure my sweaty hands don't accidentally drop it. My ONLY suggestion is to get the 2 year geek squad coverage on it. You won't regret it. I had some bad stick drift and a bumper not register all the time when clicked. Like all things you use often, they'll get some wear on it. Best buy makes it easy with the coverage.

I had the original Series 2 but I wanted the White one since it’s announcement. They also announced that the elite Series is apart of the design lab on Xbox website so you can customize the way you’d like. Like advertised, it doesn’t come with the extra accessories like the original but if you don’t use them or had paddles and thumb sticks from previous ownership, you’re set. Update the controller once you pair it and you’ll be able to change the color of the Xbox logo.

Amazing! Very comfortable in the hand. Keeps hands dry. Very satisfied

Feels good in my hands and has a nice weight to it. This was a replacement for a series one elite that had worn out in a number of ways long before it should have for what I paid. I'm concerned the series 2 will be showing the same wear within the same time period, but decided to take a chance anyway. I guess time will tell. Some third-party controllers have the same weight but simply don't have the same feel as the authentic Microsoft elite controllers, which is why I bit the bullet and went ahead and bought another one despite thinking the last one wore out way too fast for the price point.

Love this controller would recommend. Out of 4 controllers this is my absolute favorite

High end controller! Durable and it just feel and works so much better thanks the genetic ones.

very easy to use and love the grip. easier then using keyboard all the time

My son uses this on Xbox and loves it. It is a little pricy, but a good splurge item.

After playing with standard controllers all my life, I thought it was time to splurge for a high quality controller, and I was not disappointed. This controller just feels so solid and well constructed. Adjusting and swapping out buttons is a breeze and the charging dock eliminates having to constantly worry about batteries. Everything fits perfectly in the case for easy transport and protection. There is extensive custization with the button mapping and different colors for the home button. It does cost a lot more than standard controllers, but it is well worth the higher price point for dedicated solo gamers.

This is the best controller I've used I still think the xbox 360 has a better feel though cause I can put both index and middle finger on both hands on the bumper and trigger comfortably not worth the elite 2 I use both on my right hand and only my index on the left besides that the adjustable sticks is amazing I bought it new and I'm not experiencing any issues with it like stick drift so that might be the used but I think you can remove stick drift on the Microsoft accessories app I use it for mobile gamelan latency is low so it's real responsive bumper paddles work great as well.

So far, the joystick doesn't have stick drift. I will touch back when stick drift finally sets in. The buttons are removable and customizeable which is great. Sometimes I can't find my controller because it is black. As long as the controller can handle GTA6 when it comes out, I will be fine with it.

[Employee of bestbuy] Great controller !!! It does give you a whole different experience, been playing with it ever since .

Good but not great. Feels comfy, plays smooth but for whatever reason the overloxking polling rate on xbox controllers are not unlockable to higher rates. Therefore you are stuck with Microsoft stock settings when it comes to input latency. Therefore the PS5 edge has a advantage over this one. Other then that its perfect very easy to use and feels great in your hands.

This isn't just a great controller; it's a game-changer. The moment I picked it up, I was impressed by how comfortable it felt in my hands—the ergonomics are spot-on, making even the longest gaming sessions feel effortless. The buttons are incredibly responsive, and the analog sticks offer pinpoint accuracy, which has already improved my reaction time in fast-paced games. Every input feels immediate and precise, giving me a level of control I didn't even know I was missing. Honestly, I'm kicking myself for not buying this sooner; it's completely transformed my gaming experience.

Grips are great and love thag the sticks are adjustable with the provided tool
