Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love this controller. It feels very nice in hands. The grips are a huge upgrade over the Series 1 controller, and having 3 presets also makes a huge difference. After 3 months of use though, I got major stick drift. Best Buy will not help but Microsoft has a 1 year warranty because of this problem. I'm sending my controller to Microsoft now for free but it will take 2-3 weeks to get a refurbished controller sent back to me. I'm very upset that there are no good controller companies with paddles that aren't the overpriced scuf controllers. It's a bummer that they didn't just put nice joysticks in this very expensive controller. Other than that, it is really great but that is game breaking.

Best controller it works good and everything came perfect

It is Great product works wonderfully was easy to get

This is such a smooth, high quality & responsive controller! I had a series 1 controller but spilled my beer on it (when I was being chased by a 13 year old during a furious COD match). This new controller feels great in the hands and the ability to program it creates all sorts of awesome options! Love this thing!

I’ve been considering buying this elite controller for a while and then I jumped the gun. Honestly it’s way better than the old version. The 1st model, as it may have the same functions as the old elite this version is heavier which feels really good in your hands. I tend to game a lot when I get the chance but with this let me just say you’ll have a lot more better games with freer movements. (Because of the buttons).

Love the controller with exception of price and the stick drift issue. It's nice that Microsoft finally acknowledged that it was a problem and extended the warranty but it would be better if they would fix the issue. On my second controller in 4 months so we'll see how it holds up. A little on the pricey side when considering the quality issues they have been having.

Great controller my husband really likes it. He had to get used to using the back buttons but he getting the hang of it. It’s not heavy and fit hands good. The charger and case is awesome.

Love elite controllers they are expensive especially since I keep having drift stick issues with them

Not for everyone. It is a great controller even for the money, but it is a different experience and for windows gaming it seems to give me a little trouble with Bluetooth compared to a standard BT Xbox controller. If you like Quality, customization, and ascetics this controller is for you.

Great feel awesome sensitivity can’t go wrong getting one of these programmable controllers edition of the Puddles is awesome

Really comfortable, quality in every way. You’ll no regreet

Good quality controller with a great battery life. I haven't had any complaints about the hardware. If you are looking to get this for use with your PC, know you will need to download/update drivers using an additional Xbox app. While inconvenient, it shouldn't deter you from the great quality comfort this controller provides.

Even better than the original. Love the feel of it and love the customisation.

After using the controller for a few months, I have to say it’s great! The customization options for the analog sticks is good. But this really shines for me using Steam input on my PC to map the back paddles for additional button presses and shortcuts for games. Haven’t had any quality control issues yet as others have said online.

Amazing product I’ve been using this Xbox controller since 2020 and I’ll never use another controller

So when I finally got my hands on the series x I bought a second controller so my son and I could play. The x box controllers are great! This controller is a total game changer. If you play FPS games having those paddles on the back will automatically up your game. This thing feels rock solid! I love that you can set the trigger distance, that was a big plus! Bottom line I would have went straight to this controller! It rocks!

I really like this product. the grip was excellent and the quality of the controller felt like it was made with good parts

This is my fourth Microsoft Elite controller I have owned. All have been purchased from Best Buy. I always purchase the extended warranty because they always seem to develop hardware issues. The controller itself has an excellent feel and performs well. Unfortunately for me, they seem to have a fully functional life of about one year before needing replacement. Its very disappointing for a high quality item like this to have continuing issues!

What an upgrade from an xbox one controller. A nice premium feel and easy to pair. Also huge bonus that you can adjust the analog sticks in case you have stick drift

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller is outstanding! Its sleek design, premium build quality, and customizable features make it a top-notch choice. The improved ergonomics and reliable wireless connectivity enhance the gaming experience. It's a worthwhile investment for serious gamers looking for precise control and durability. Highly recommended.
