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.

More sturdy for a premium gaming experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had gaming consoles for 15+ years and never felt the need to get upgraded controllers. Picked this up on Black Friday and couldn’t be happier. The tension adjustment on the analog sticks is alone worth the price. Get the core model its a better deal.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Stick drift
As Expected

I would recommend this to a friend BUY THE PROTECTION PLAN.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its a good controller. The features are great, being able to key bind is amazing, trigger locks are top tier. But I've gone through 4 of these so far. THEY DO NOT LAST. I do recommend this controller but get the replacement plan you WILL need it. First one was dropped from my desk to a carpeted floor. Right bumper stopped working. Next one the right bumper just stopped working for no reason other than use. Third one right bumper stopped working half the time and if i press on both thumb sticks the controller shuts off. Ordering my 4th one right now as I type this. I love the idea of this controller but for $179 you would think they would last longer than a year.

Xbox Elite V2

I would recommend this to a friend Great controller but horrlble Best Buy Experiance
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to purchase this controller twice and here is why. I bought the “Open Box” the is supposedly checked by the Geek Squad. The first controller the right shoulder button was dead. I mean i can check this using the Xbox diagnostics.. so clearly no one at the Geek Squad checked this unit. The next open box in “excellent condition “ was missing the charging cable and not in the retail box. The Best Buy refurb is a joke..avoid it and shop Amazon… they actually check their devices.

I would recommend this to a friend It’s all about the grips.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After burning through three elite controllers in as many years thanks to their rubberized grips coming undone, I’m hopeful this new design holds. There is a seam on the inside now, but the stress bubble portion of the outer grips is now solid. I do like the feel of the new triggers better, but my previous ones never gave out so I can only say it’s a minor improvement. Loved my old elites, so if the grips hold up now, I’m sure to love these. So far, really like them.

Well worth the high price point
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using this controller for only a short time, I have only good things to say about it. Although a bit on the high side of price for a controller. The build quality, performance, and all around appearance is outstanding and well worth the money. I would definitely recommend this for any Xbox users and PC users who play on controller, a HUGE improvement over any other controller on the market.
I would recommend this to a friendEverything about this improved
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The elite controller is one of the nicest controllers made but with a bunch of annoying flaws. This version 2 has a ton of things improved on it that are much needed. The internal battery is honestly a downgrade for longevity for when it goes bad you'll have to tear it down to replace it. I'd prefer the AA's all day for longevity. otherwise amazing controller.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat PC remote.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this Remote Controller for my Xbox. However, after getting my gaming PC recently, I found that it works well with it. I especially like the back paddles and the fact that you can customize them to whatever button you want. The controller feels solid and comfortable on my hands. I do not think I will be going back to any other controller after using the Elite 2
