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.

    I was reluctant to buy the Elite 2, after reading many bad reviews of it, but I went ahead and ordered one as I love my xbox original elite 1. Been using it for almost a month and it works great. Will write more after six month.

    This controller is simply the best controller I've ever used period. The build quality is excellent and it feels amazing in my hands. You can customize to many features on the controller and get it to your liking/comfort. 10/10 recommend

    The elite 2 is an incredible controller, probably the best you can buy! It’s is leaps and bounds better in every aspect that’s the first elite controller. Once you use and elite 2 controller you won’t want anything else.

    Much better hand feel than the standard controller. Easily customized with provided additional knobs. Still trying to get used to the paddles on back, as standard controllers do not include them.

    A bit high in the price for a xbox controller, my last elite controller lasted about 2 years, which isnt great for the price. Hopefully this controller lasts longer.

    So far a great buy. Only difference between this and regular elite is it doesn’t include paddles but I’m not a fan of so it’s okay, plus you can buy separately.
