Customer Ratings & Reviews

Been using these controllers for years and they never disappoint i can be rough on my controllers sometimes and its held up extremely well form all the drops squeezing and carelessness i have towards it gave me a solid 2 years without needing to get it replaced. (Only replacing because i dropped it down my stair case and the trigger got stuck but after some tinkering its all good now)

Feels great in your hands, solid and sturdy. Love the adjustability.

Had to get another one because my Puppy chewed up my first one. By far one of there best controllers had to get it again I love the original controller but after using this for so long the original just didn't feel the same. I wish they would have included this with there consoles. Love the color as well

Love the Xbox elite controller. They last years. Second one I've bought. The first one I had lasted about 3-4 years traditional controllers are dead within a year.

There's not one bad thing I could say about this controller the build quality is incredible the option to change out every single thing on the controller the coolest future ever you can adjust the tension on the phone sticks you have to back paddles on each side that you can control and take off you can set your triggers to Hairpin or all the way push the grip keep your hands from getting clammy its literally the best controller I have ever held. Just put it back in its case to charge no more batteries packs. Its just perfect.

Comes in a great case for carrying and storage. Works as intended - feels far better than the XBox One controller I was using prior to this. I am using on PC, and the paddles and adjustability of the controller makes fore a great product. Little pricey, but worth the investment if you game at all and need a solid controller.

Got on sale and open box so decent deal, bumper went out and had the controller replaced under warranty with a new one about a year in, new one works great so far, not sure if it’s worth the extra money compared to the original pro but does a great job regardless

My husband loves it he say he can shoot better and it moves smoothly

There's a lot of reviews out there discrediting this controller as being unreliable or easily damaged. I've had it for four months now and play almost every day and have had zero issues. I did, however, purchase the replacement plan to cover myself in case there are some issues down the road, but everything's good so far. Feels premium and built in battery and charging dock are super convenient.

This controller is a big improvement over the original Elite with the built in battery pack, and enhanced D-pad. The only thing I had to make modifications to are the paddles on the back because my hands are big and I wasn't able to hold the controller normally, so I ordered a duplicate set of paddles and used the shorter sets for top and bottom. I took it a step further and trimmed about 1/4 inch off the top paddles and now it's perfect. It's unfortunate that Microsoft didn't offer a couple different variants of paddles for people with larger hands, but it's still a solid controller and worth every penny.

I cannot express how much I enjoy this controller. If you're looking to get a high end, customized gaming experience then this is a no brainer. The controller has nice weighty feel to it and the buttons have a good tactile sensation. It takes a little bit to figure out the button mapping features and customization but once you do it's a dream. The best part is the battery life, this thing can go for hours upon hours before needing a charge. The charging cradle works incredibly well and I've had no issues with the contacts. All in all if it's something you're willing to spend the money on you will not regret this purchase

I would definitely give this controller 5 stars if this was the first Elite controller you purchased. I wouldn’t rate it 5 stars if you already have the first model. A few definitely marked improvements; my favorites being the anti slip grip, the shortened paddles on the back, and the 3 customizable settings. If you have the first version, I could argue on not getting this one and hopefully waiting for a 3rd version (you know there will be another). First time buyer; I’d recommend it. Already have the first; I’d wait, unless your wallet is burning a hole in your pocket and you would also want the aforementioned features.

This was a great change in controller scheme from the normal controller. The paddles on the bottom were fantastic. In FPS games, being able to map the face buttons to the paddles means I didn't have to take my finger off the right thumb stick while playing. Made being a shotgun ape a little easier. The customizations are also a nice feature, different thumb sticks you can put on, different direction pad. Also, the weight of the controller feels nice. Feels solid in your hand. 2 stars cause after 7-8 months of ownership the left joy stick tracking started getting wonky, specifically in the up direction. Presents itself in I'll be running in COD or Destiny, and just all of a sudden come to a walk. Like the controller just forgets your pushing full forward. Have to release and reengage the run, which in a shooter is certainly a difference between winning and losing a fight. Very disappointing that a controller that cost almost half as much as the console developed issues in under a year, and only has a 6 month warranty. My original, included with the Xbox controller is still going strong after years of ownership. Recommend from a feature standpoint. Do not recommend from a quality/standing behind the product stand point. Understand quality issue can happen to anyone, but only a 6 month warranty on a $200 controller, just disappointing.

I love this controller, I don’t want any other! I will say it has stick drift right out of the box.

Great feel to the sticks, buttons, and triggers. The customization through the console is great if you take the time to adjust everything carefully. I have an older model with the paddles (extra purchase on this model) and I can remove them and put them on this one when I want to. Overall a much better controller than the standard Xbox controller.

I really like this controller it feels like it’s made with a high standard of quality. I love all its features like how you can customize the thumb sticks and D-pad and that they are made of metal, not plastic. The battery for me last a long time, I just charged it the first time since it’s initial charge the other day, though I don’t play everyday, so it last pretty long even with vibration on. But the overall build quality is excellent nice rubber grips, metal sticks, and sturdy plastic. This controller when compared to the new Series X controller makes the X feel cheap.

Good when brand new, stick drift happens on either left or right thumb stick after a few months of use. BestBuy makes it easy to exchange broken defective items with their pro plan without any hassle.

After using the Xbox elite series controller for about a month now I feel that I can leave a solid and honest review. I have tried and used multiple Xbox controllers that have paddles and are capable of custom button mapping. The xbox app for the Xbox elite series controller allows you to custom map EVERY ASPECT of the controller. So much so that I am able to turn down the responsiveness and speed at which the input for the left and right stick acceleration depending on the parameters that I set. It sets so well and comfortably in my hands. Simply put, it is hands down the best controller i have ever used. Thats including Fusion and Turtle Beach brands. The cost is minimal at best for such a controller in my opinion. I have had to return and exchange numerous controllers that were previously stated. Given the costs (Turtle Beach alone being over $200) of the competitors products and the craftsmanship I had expexted to be set for the foreseeable future, however that was never the case. I have had ZERO issues with my Xbox elite series controller. The battery is PHENOMENAL and the charge time is MINIMAL at best.

Everything about this device screams quality. I love the feel of it. It seems a little heavier, but overall feels very good in my hands. What blows me away is the battery life. I had gotten used to the older controllers so when I started using this I was surprised that I didn't have to charge after several hours of game play. A few days later, the same. A few days more... It seemed to take forever for me to have to charge the device. I love it! I've had it for a bit and it just consistently performs.

Works as intended and it very comfortable to use compared to the stock controller type.
