Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a great controller, but the one issue it has is drift. The last one I owned had drift, and was unfixable. Bought the same one, as the feel of this one is the best. Hopefully it lasts longer than my previous one.

My only complain being don't have dry hands when handling this controller

The paddles are great and give me the edge i need to beat the competition

I absolutely love the Microsoft elite series controllers. I have a black one that I use. Also, this white one looks even better. It doesn’t come with the battery or the case but you really don’t need it. I love the way the stick works and it comes with all of the buttons and switches to the other one for the price you cannot go wrong with this I absolutely love the way it feels in your hand. The grip is nice the white does get dirty a little easy but it’s still looks great.

I love this controller because it’s very sturdy, and the analog sticks are robust as well. I’m glad this controller comes in multiple colors, and I do recommend it to everyone.

Good controller. Nice options Works right out the box.

Great controller enhances my game play would always recommend

Son loves this controller! It’s durable and doesn’t glitch

Great feel and color. Get the warranty because they do wear and tear

I use this controller almost everyday and absolutely loves how it feels in my hands. I have used this type of controller for about 3 years an unfortunately the only reason I bought a new one was because my puppy got ahold of it and chewed it. As soon as it happened my wife and I went to Best Buy to get one the first one didn’t have any in stock so we called and ordered it from a different location on our way there just to make sure we didn’t miss out on getting the exact one that I wanted. Best Buy answered really quickly and helped me order it over the phone in less than 3 minutes. As soon as we arrived they already had it waiting in online orders even though we were only about 5 minutes away after we finalized the order.

My second one so far. The only Xbox controller I will ever buy.

I love this controller! For years I always rocked a normal Xbox controller but upgrading to an elite was one of the best decisions! Great Grip and Battery life!

Sticky buttons, and stick drift 30 days in of owning this product, otherwise very durable

I love this remote ! The main reason to buy it was because I play CoD, and sadly my thumb gets tired for running, with this remote that pain is not a problem anymore. I was able to modify the bottoms wherever I needed to be.

Compared to the original Elite controller this one is by far an amazing upgrade. Having the ability to adjust the tension on the thumbsticks is great for dialing in the accuracy for FPS games, the extra middle trigger stop is awesome if you're not wanting to go all the way to the short stop for other games as well, and the adjusted paddles on the back are much better without having to worry about accidentally hitting them while playing. The built in rechargeable battery is a step above the play and charge kit battery. I have definitely noticed a significant increase in play time before needing to charge it. If you're on the fence whether to keep your original Elite over this one then you're missing out. The Elite 2 is definitely worth the money for the upgrade.

Love it! Excellent controller and much better than the original. After a year I am starting to get a little stick drift which is annoying

Fantastic item would recommend to anyone. But extended warranty

I had been hesitant to get this instead of a normal controller because of the cost. After getting it, I am upset that I hadn't done so sooner because I cannot imagine going back to a normal controller after this.

Overall, the controller felt good when sitting on the hands. The dome joystick and the adjustable tension makes it really comfortable to play games. But there are still some issues on the controller I received. I can hear something when I shake it; the dead zones of the joysticks are even larger than my regular one s controller; the top part along with the bumpers is a bit loose. I don't think paying almost $200 for a possible defective controller is a wise choice. Also, as a PC gamer, I don't feel the upgrade worth that much of penny that is 3-5 times more than a regular one s controller.

The Xbox Elite Series 2 controller feels like quality the first time you hold the controller. The grips are comfortable, the interchangeable sticks and D-Pad make you feel that the controller is designed for anyone. The paddles add even more customization than the average gamer knew they needed. With features like this how could this controller be rated any less than a 5 you may wonder. Well lets just say that the experience is "Elite" until the controller falls apart, literally. The Series 2 was my second go at the Elite controllers from Microsoft and at first I fell in love again and forgot how my original elite controller broke. However after nearly a year of using the controller my left stick's button (LS) was no longer operational. I made due by making my paddles the LS and RS buttons and have grown accustom to utilizing those. Then the second fault occurred, my left bumper no longer registered. Now I could've just thrown in another set of paddles to get me by, but the paddles aren't meant to replace broken components. So at the end of the day, the controller truly is a fantastic experience and changes the way I viewed controllers. However I am 0/2 with working Elite controllers, I had insurance on the controller via GeekSquad so I did swap it out for a new one. Just buyer beware on the fragile nature of the controller. Highly Recommend Geek Squad insurance.
