Customer Ratings & Reviews

The price is decent with this controller but when you look at other competitor controllers with paddles like Scuf which go for (200+) the price is fair. Its a huge improvement from the first elite controller. Better thumb stick options now with higher tension and Xbox 360 size thumb sticks. Battery life on this controller is amazing I can play for days without charging. Paddles on the back take more force to engage which feels a lot better while using. Only downside and this is nitpicking is that the tension needs to be a little higher on the 3rd setting to replicate the perfect 360 controller. Also the 360 thumb sticks don't have enough grip. But I highly recommend also buy the 2 year warranty. So that if you receive wear and tear or any other issues you can replace it.

It’s what you’d expect from an Elite controller, no issues.

It’s a very good controller that will last a long time. My bf has charged it maybe twice in the last 8 months of having it. It’s perfect

I was kind of hesitant on buying this over the regular xbox controller (I'm a PC gamer) but I'm glad I did. I didn't like having to change batteries and I wanted to have something more customizable and this fits the bill. I've gamed for hours and it's so comfortable.

Easily my favorite game controller out there. Easlily interchangeable with xbox and PC, very long battery life, durable, some customizable parts, and great carrying/charging case. I did have to replace it recently though due to RB button failure. Even with it's extensive use, the failure happened a bit sooner than I expected. These things are pretty well built. Don't think I can ever go back to regular controllers.

Its a hit or miss with these controllers but luckily I havent had any problems with the infamous bunper defect. So far my experience has been great.

Solid controller. The battery holds a charge for many playing hours. The customization is unlimited. You can configure to your style of play and the programmable buttons make in game moves almost like cheating.

The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 feels a lot better than the included controller in the Series X/S and seems more like a true "next gen" controller. I primarily use the Xbox Elite 2 for PC gaming. On Steam when connecting via Bluetooth the controller has worked flawlessly except with Batman: Arkham Knight which required telling the game it was a 360 controller with custom mappings. Surprisingly with Xbox PC game pass I ran into many more issues when connecting via Bluetooth, I found connecting via the included USB-C cable works better for game pass games, otherwise on BT I run into issues where some of the buttons aren't mapped properly and even when manually mapping them they don't respond correctly or at all. Being Xbox's flagship controller, I would think it would run seamlessly on Xbox game pass. The experience may be better on consoles but this controller is billed as an Xbox/PC controller and should work well on both. Other than those issues, which largely are corrected by connecting via USB-C, I like the controller quite a bit. The rumble feature feels much more natural than the included Xbox Series X controllers, which felt to me like technology from 10+ years ago with very basic and clunky vibration feedback, lightweight and a need for AA batteries, especially when compared with the all mighty PS DualSense. The Elite 2 controller has a nice weight to it, the thumb sticks feel solid, snappy and respond nicely. I haven't used the paddles much but I like that they are included and could see them being useful for many games. The grips feel good as well and make the controller sit securely in your hands during gaming sessions. The controller also feels more balanced than the X/S. This controller comes with a quality, corded 9' USB to USB-C cable as well as a rugged case that doubles as a charging station. Within the case it also includes a tool to adjust the thumb sticks as well as an alternate D-pad. Overall this is a large improvement over the included X/S controllers, and some of its PC compatibility issues which are a bit frustrating can largely be overcome by tethering with USB-C.

I really like the hefty weight the controller has, and I can't play without the paddles anymore. However, after about a year of use the right bumper sometimes drops the input. while one of the paddles feel stiff. On top of if I squeeze it a little to hard it cuts off. And it randomly disconnects. I really love this controller. I just wish it lasted a little longer for the price tag

Ive had 3 of these controllers Overall performance is solid but has a desync issue every other day, bumper buttons are the most common to break, stick drift doesnt really occur until 3-4 months of use. Durability is very good, and freedom of button layout is comp asf and very helpful for swapping games. Dont recommend using this for fights games.

Works exactly as intended, smooth too. Multiple features and the best controller you can get.

i like that it takes no batteries rechargeable the ergonomical grip immerses me more in the game with better handling the buttons are quicker and sharper and make for faster typing and the charge seems to last longer than the original contoller. the red is just awesome color its my daily standard now . customizable with potental for paddle shifters on back i recommed im intrigued with

Controller has a lot more customization in terms of thumbstick height and trigger actuation. Also comes with a nice carrying case. Very good quality controller with a premium feel. Only con is that it is quite expensive.

After finally acquiring a Series X, I was content to use the standard Xbox wireless controllers. I even invested in a PowerA Fusion controller that was on clearance for less than $50. But when this came available for $139 during the 15 days of Gaming promotion I felt compelled to give it a try. I can't recall a better deal being made. Even at full MSRP it is a great value. The design, the weight and feel. The quality of materials used plus the functionality and countless configurations are unmatched. Why buy anything but the best? I think it is a highly durable product that will give you the greatest satisfaction. I have zero regrets.

Best controller out there. Able to fine toon it to your needs

I love the feel of the controller. Its comfortable and grips well in hand. This is the perfect controller for first-person shooter games with the additional paddles in the back, and the adjustable triggers. Utilizing the additional paddles takes a few hours to get use to, but once you do, It is hard to use any other controller. Also the addition of a carrying case, extra swappable pieces, and portable charger make this controller worth the price tag. I was skeptical at first, but glad i invested in this controller which will be my primary gaming controller for many years.

The Xbox wireless controller is comfortable to use, light and quickly reactive. It is also durable over time.

This is a real game changer when it comes to customization and when in game. The interchangeable thumb grips and paddles makes it to were I can’t go back to the original controller

Great controller. It has a great feel and weight to it. The grip on this is much better than the original model. No such drift as of yet, so fingers crossed

Great controller, its about time they dropped the Elite series 3 though. I think this one is lagging behind (literally) when it comes to the amount of Hz it connects too. The higher the better. Almost got a different one until i found it it had no rumble to the controller. I need to feel the game! Extremely comfortable and easy to use. Buy!!!
