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.

STAY AWAY! Multiple defects
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.STAY AWAY!!! I am now sending in my FOURTH defective controller within a year. Bumper issues appeared after three months on the first two, then left stick stopped working on my third replacement. I received my NEXT replacement today and tested it, only to find that one of the paddles wasn’t working. Avoid at all costs. Just google Xbox Elite 2 lawsuit. It’s not a “small percentage” of controllers that are defective. Terrible build quality. I was charged $100 for a replacement only four months after original purchase. Since then, due to a class-action lawsuit, Microsoft has extended the warrantee and refunded those replacement costs, but they continue sending defective controllers. Could have been a great product, but the quality is garbage. The features and feel are amazing, until 2-4 months after you start using it, and a malfunction renders it useless. Buyer beware.

I would recommend this to a friendLove the controller, but.......
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was an open box. Xmas present. Was missing charging cable. Called for assistance and was told because open box ..cable wouldn’t be available till after January and needed to call back then. So with money I saved getting open box went to Walmart and bought a cable. Won’t buy open box again! Otherwise my son likes controller after he finally got to use it!!
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Button quality
Trash
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stick to the elite series one controller! The concept of this “elite” controller is amazing but I don’t think it went through an intense era of actual gamer usage. I purchased and returned within 24 hours I thought that the buttons were stiff since it’s new and whatever but they started to get stuck like there was tacky tape below them. The “A” button was the worst of them all! The trigger sticks were also unresponsive in some game play. Microsoft needs to evaluate this controller 100 times over before allowing anyone to pay nearly 200 dollars for something worth no more than 10 bucks. Save your time and money and just wait for a newer model to release.

I would recommend this to a friendSame A and Y button problem
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the most recent release of the Elite Series 2, but sadly still has the same A and Y button problem, where you have to press the buttons carefully for them to respond. Not a manufacturing defect but a characteristic on this controllers.
