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.

    Well built and comfortable to use. Not worth the high price tag unless you have plenty of money to blow on features you most likely will never use.

    The best controller a gamer can buy. Once you get used to it and figure out good button mapping ( I recommend A,B,X,Y, your thumb never leaves the joystick so you can easily multitask) you will never want to use a normal controller again

    These are so hard to come by so I bought one just incase my elite 1 broke again. Decided to open it and use it because I was having issues with a new headset and wanted to see if the controller was the problem. Went ahead and played a game of COD Warzone and haven't put it back in the box. Grips feel great and they fixed the issue i had with the elite 1 when you used the quick setting on bumpers for shooting games you wouldn't get much of a response if you tried to drive a car for example GTA5 or COD warzone. Only complaint is the paddles aren't as large as the elite 1s so i swapped them out and been using ever since.

    The Xbox Elite controller series 2 is definitely better than the original elite. They started with a good controller in the elite but made the series 2 much better.
