Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love this thing. I never thought I would spend money like this on a a controller, but I had some xmas money to burn so I did it. This feels very sturdy and well-made. The added, removable, and programmable buttons on the trigger side have been great for games that have a lot of button pushing. This controller is customizable with magnetic thumb knobs on each side plus the directional pad. No regrets on this purchase.

Must have for gamers. This core elite series 2 doesn't come with case or paddles but is a replacement for the elite series 2 controller. In my opinion I would buy the extended warranty so when thumbsticks or bumpers wear out you can easily replace.

Its pretty comfortable to use has a good weight and its easy to put together

This controller is by far the best one. I have a Series 1 and I like it but, the grip portion will come off. But so far I have been using and making the Joy Stick adjustment and it is awesome and you feel and see the difference on the accuracy of the movement. I like the fact that I can charge it and use it for 40 hrs, I haven’t tested it the 40 hrs, but I like being connected when I play FPS.The back paddles feel better at their current location, better than the series 1. Let see after time how this controller operates.

about a month in, and i love it so far. one of the paddles is a little wonky sometimes, gotta press harder than the others. but works fine, no stick drift either.

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

This is a very good controller. I only give it 3 stars because the A button doesn't work correctly. I can take 2-3 times of pressing it in order for it to work. It was that way straight out of the box. The controller is still overpriced. However, this controller is far superior to the basic Xbox controllers.

I love the feel and works really good. Got very very little stick drift(got it open box), not game breaking but does show if you stare at a place.

This is a great improvement from the original elite controller. The grip is extended from just the backing to the front, back, and triggers. The multi-stage trigger locks were surprisingly more helpful. The controller also has more software settings and setting “slots”. Two biggest improvements to me are the new paddles which are a bit smaller making it less cumbersome to use all four and of course the integrated rechargeable battery pack takes the cake. Definitely a top shelf controller!

This is literally the best line of controllers.. The weight, the feel, the functionality.. AMAZING!! I love the elite series on what they should deliver. 2 Star rating is because i have 3 Elite series 1 controllers that all have common issues. (Drift, bumper, peeling grip) I had read a lot of these things were addresses with the Series 2.. Nope.. Still a hot steamy pile of crap.. Purchased in October and this has the worst case of drift I've ever had.. The right bumper is super sensitive, one push and it thinks it's two. The grip hasnt peeled so i guess theres a pro.. Also have the Geek Squad Protection but they have been out of stock now for like 5 months so im stuck using this or one of my normal controllers..

Best controller ever! Extended use can make some buttons sticky. Over fantastic. Love the adjustability.

This controller is quite literally the peak of controller design. No stick drift, infinite customization (both physical and digital),and snappy response time. I have no issues with this product and it has only help me improve in competitive games such as Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Destiny 2.

Great controller. Because of the button mapping and paddles I was able to greatly improve response times in some games. Played numerous house and very very very minimal stick drift. The elite series controller are always my go to. Some say it’s a little heavy but to me I like the weight and doesn’t seem cheap.

Has a good feel to it and the option to use more buttons are perfect for games.

This controller is perfect for anyone who already has an elite series 2 controller and is looking to replace their old one. You can use the old attachments on this new one and and it feels literally the same. So far no issue and price is fair compared to the normal elite series 2 controller.

This controller is amazing in every way except 1. I would think that a $200 controller would last more than a year and a half before the sticks started drifting with no way to fix. I have original XBOX 360 controllers that I still use years and years later. Those cost $60 and still work perfectly, but this super expensive (and totally worth the price for how it works... when it works) controller needs to be replaced not even 2 years after purchase. I am a middle aged man who uses this probably a quarter of what a young kid would and it always gets stored in its cradle after use, and still.... have to replace it already. This is a problem I see hundreds of videos referencing too, so it is not isolated. I hope they fix it in future generations of controllers, because everything about it is truly Elite, except its life span.

Love the controller! Nice weight. The paddles take a little time to get used to nut once you do they are a thumb saver. hahaha! Great purchase.

Overall, the product is in good condition. I found a minor flaw, but it's lightweight, so overall, the product was in perfect condition with all the buttons and good JoyCon movement. So, overall, the product came in good condition despite being used

Great quality and feels good in your hands... always been a playstation fanboy until i switched to pc and man the feel of the xbox elite controller is unbeatable
