Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have had three over the past 6 years. By far the best overall high end controller. The xbox controller frame and buttom layout in my opinion is the most ideal and ergonimic. Have only had one have button/drift issues and was replaced with GSP.

This Xbox controller is amazing for the price I like weight of the controller it’s nice and it has a low response time and battery life is good the controller feels like it worth the money uses metal thumb sticks are nice when playing gps games

These are awesome, except some units the rubber peels over time. Still a fantastic controller.

Works great for gaming on xbox. My uses this and is performing over expected.

I stick by the elite controllers, they have an amazing hand feel and the paddles on the rear are in absolute perfect positioning for my hands - biggest reason I keep returning to them, I can’t game without them now it’s almost like you forget they’re there and it just becomes a regular button that naturally integrated. My only complaint is the bumpers- the elite controllers are notorious for having the bumpers go out after a year or two ( and the grips start popping off, but some precision super glue or adhesive and it’s like nothing ever happened ) so you do end up needing to replace them every couple years - I’m on my 4th elite controller since the very first gen 1 elite controller release.

This is my third elite controller, and it works well. It feels good to use and does what it's meant to do. I docked it by one star because my past two have had the shoulder buttons fail, which seems to be a recurring problem for these controllers. I have yet to see if this issue has been addressed by Microsoft or if the same problem is still present.

You can feel the quality of the materials used right away when holding this controller in your hands. Premium materials and the weight of the controller makes this the best one I have ever used. The battery life is great and you can plug it in and charge it while playing.

Perfect all the value I expected on this controller

I've had the worst luck with XBOX controllers. They are by far the most unreliable controllers on the market. I am extremely careful, gentle with my controllers what frustrates me the most. This controller does have a tendency to frequently disconnect from my XBOX. Sometimes I have to completely power off my console or reconnect by pairing the controller again. To my stupidity, I did not get the protection plan on this controller, so I guess I am out of luck. With XBOX my controllers usually last 1-2 years with no wear and tear at all. Actually, my controller that came with the XBOX lasted months before not working and it was just a backup controller that was hardly used. With the money that I paid for this controller if it does not last I will definitely be switching to Playstation 5. My Playstation 4 controllers are over 5 years old and work perfectly fine. I will say the quality of the controller is great and it feels great in the hands. It also has some well-balanced weight to it which feels good as well. Buttons and pad are adjustable and it does come with a nice carrying case.

Good controller get the protection plan right bumper failed on me 3 times now but it’s my go to.

I returned my Series 1 multiple times to Microsoft for grips that kept falling off. I bought Series 2 and am glad they fixed all the mistakes made with the first edition. This model has a built in battery that lasts over 35 hours on a single charge (Been playing Borderlands 3 with it since Christmas) and the grips are no longer glued but a part of the controller itself. It's more expensive than Series 1, but that's because of the amazing built in battery. Strongly recommended if you're a hard core gamer that plays a ton!

After a little more than a year, I am still loving my Elite II's, and this is my 3rd purchase that I just bought! Over a year a ago, i bought my first Elite series II Black with the carrying case, charger, and additional thumbsticks. I thought it might be too heavy for continuous gameplay cuz its got some heft compared to my old Xbox 360 controller which is my favorite to use on pc games over my ps3 controller. But after using it for awhile, you do definitely get used to it. In fact, when i tried to use my old controller i now found the 360 controller too light! So 6 months ago, i bought a second one to replace the 360 controller that i had for coop since my friends wanted to use my Elite II. Then recently i bought a Gaming Laptop that of course needed it's own! I needed only the core since i already had 2, so the core purchase worked out well. Plus they are interchangeable with there parts and colors! Would definitely recommend!!

I love this controller, has it for about two years now and I still love it, it’s my favorite controller in my house.

The best controller in the game. Perfect for anyone that feels all the Xbox controllers are fragile.

Good but could be better! These controllers always ended up with a stick drift so I finally switched to GameSir

Very good controller. A little pricey though. The feel of the device in hand is great and very different from the standard controller. And there are so many configuration options it seems overwhelming.

I love the xbox elite controller and the way you can customize the controls and tailor it to the game your friends playing. Aldo bought an accessory pack on amazon so i can custom the d pad, triggers and joystick. Only complaint is the price it is pretty pricey.

Works amazingly with many different options for customization. Additionally you have the ability swap out your joysticks for different play styles to reach the optimal results you desire. This controller will also maintain a charge for significantly longer than other controller's.

Can’t play without this controller. Great grip, great feel. Drifts in some games though, not all.

This is without a doubt a better feeling design then the first Elite controller. It has 3 positions for controller config potions, and the grips on the handles have a softer bump fell to them. The paddles on the bottom also feel better, a little more tucked in and out of the way. Also love the blacked out look of the controller. Just hope that the right and left bumper do better then the first Elite controller, Had to get mine fixed/replaced twice because they failed to work.
