Customer Ratings & Reviews

I recently purchased this item and my family and I LOVE it! It feels solid and made well and the controls are very smooth. The fact that you charge it in the case and don’t need batteries to keep it running it a HUGE win in my opinion. Overall this controller is very well done. And for those who don’t like or want to use the extra paddles they are easily removable. Well done!

It’s branded. It’s customizable. It’s built for PC and console. Works great, feels great. Even my sweaty hands appreciate the slight rubberized touch. The stick tops fall off if the controller falls. Don’t let it fall.

Microsoft's Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 has a not only a premium feel as noted by other reviewers, but also a quality appearance. Optional buttons and adjustments that be made to the controller only add to a stellar gaming experience. Price point might be considered a bit high, but definitely worth it if it can be purchased at a sale price.

What I needed when I needed it pickup was a breeze!!

Excellent controller smooth long lasting battery. Love the charger in the case

Not worth 200$ but what can you do when we all give in to pay these absurd prices. Still a great controller until the stick drift happens

Nothing is better than this Xbox controller had no issues with it. I’ve been having it for the past couple years still working right now.

Controller feels nice, has a nice quality feel to it. Only issue is the sides of the controller have been lifting and the RB button works about 40% if the time. Awesome controller, 5 starts if I wasn’t experiencing those issues.

Bought this controller as an avid PS4 controller fan and have to admit this controller exceeded my expectations. I'm very happy with all the features (paddles, joy stick tension adjustment and multiple config button mappings) to name a few. I was still planning to go back to my custom made ps4 controller, but after using this controller for a few days I'm just going to stick the this one. Even bought the 2 year warranty. Hightly recommended for anyone's gaming needs.

Out of all of my Xbox controllers, this one has managed to last the longest without developing the dreaded ghost drift issue that plagues regular controllers

There's plenty of third-party accessories for this controller, so don't feel like you're missing out on anything and they can be had for less than buying the regular Elite controller. The only downside is that there's no way to easily replace it if there's stick drift. I wish it had Hall Effect joysticks or replaceable ones like another Edge controller for another company ;-), but that said, I still have the original Elite and it's working great and it's a few years old at this point. So I have no fear this will also pass the test of time!

I've used many controllers over the years. This is the best one I've used. Used with a gaming PC, easy to set up, easy to use. Love the feel. Side note: I've larger hands than most, has great grip and feel in my hands so might be a bit clunky for some.

*Buy the GS Protection Plan!* I thought the "2" in Series 2 would indicate an upgrade in parts and components.... I was stupidly optimistic and wrong. Pros: - Grip - Swappable Magnetic Thumbsticks & D-Pad - Paddles - 10 Foot Cable - Case w/ Charger - Multiple Swappable Profiles Cons: - Same terrible buttons and triggers - When you press RB x1 you get RB x3... "The math checks out" - Will Ferrell... This was my third Elite controller and yet another dud... My first one got stick drift in around 3 months... My second one had a mushy/ bad A button coupled with a paddle that wouldn't register presses every time... THIS ONE however had the triple pressing RB after about 6 months... The sad part is at the time I was playing a lot of MLB The Show and while RB is used it isn't like using A or X but eventually one day I was cycling through the dashboard pressing RB and without fail every time it would move me over 3 times.. Tested it in different games and triple press every time. It will be a long time before they completely re-haul these controllers.. But we will unfortunately continue to support them and buy these inferiorly built ones. If they do ever decide to use more premium buttons, bumpers and triggers this controller would be the King. Until then.. if you do decide to gamble on one spend the extra money for the Geek Squad Protection plan! You will end up using it.. I promise.

Customize your gaming style. This controller can do it all. Very comfortable in your hand and aim assist.

Really cool controller. Takes a little bit to get used to with all the pedals in the back but very useful once you get the hang of it. Cool features being able to interchange the buttons and super smooth movment of the joysticks. Great for gamers or if you're trying to take your gaming to the next level. A little pricey but worth it if you're an avid gamer.

By no means have I found the controller to be of poor build quality. Everything feels great from the grips to the beautiful metal dpad and padles. The customization is nice, very easy to setup and disassemble/reassemble. Everything that is able to be detached is magnet. Pretty strong magnets. I love how you can turn down the brightnessof the Xbox logo to fairly dim. Trigger stops are the bomb. Paddles are hard to get used to imo

Got this to replace the old elite core controller. This feels somewhat better but the black runner grip is coming loose after one month. RB still works & no drift yet. Definitely buy the replacement warranty. Too expensive not to.

[Employee of bestbuy] Out for all the Xbox controllers I've had in the past this remote has been known to last 2 or more years without having stick drift. The buttons do not get stuck or lag while playing online.

It is a nice controller it would be a great controller if they could fix all the issues with the drift and the dead zones and also the price is kind of high for what it is I think it should be only about $80 I don't think it's worth the almost $200 it would be a $200 controller if it used Titanium or something but I'm sure the cost of the material is not warranted $200 but it is a nice controller over the stock ones. I like the stock ones too of course it doesn't have all the other features that the this one has but I can live with the stock one because it's only $49 on sale and this is $200 so I can buy four regular controllers for the price of one of these but it's up to you preference and your money situation

Bought this as a gift for my husband (why). He loves it but that means I'll never see him again since he will now be a gaming master with this controller. He said this is the best controller option for xbox. It definitely expensive in my opinion but it provides more options and setting for the "everyday" gamer.
