Customers are saying

Customers recognize the controller for its exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and highly customizable features. Users frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and tactile feel during extended gaming sessions. However, some owners have expressed concerns regarding the long-term durability of the buttons and the potential for stick drift. Despite these technical issues and the premium price point, many still consider it a high-quality addition to their gaming setup.

    Great controller and it is totally worth it. The battery last what seems like forever. I rarely have to charge and when I do it’s lightening quickly because of usb-c. If you enjoy gaming and not paying for batteries or silly pack then purchase this controller.

    Love the extra grip and buttons. Although after a couple months using the remote, either the left joystick or right bumper would begin malfunctioning. Best to put a warranty on it just in case this happens.

    I really love that this controller is finally rechargeable, although being able to charge in the case doesn't always work. Also, my hands seem to sweat more when compared to the series 1. Overall great design and comfort. I also love having different analog options and even though i haven't used the tool to adjust the analogs im intrigued, but leary of messing with them.

    Feels good when playing games. Only gripe is the first elite controller came with a carry case and some extra sticks and d-pad. What you see is what you get. Im not sure what the point of tightening the thumb stick does but it works.

    The controller is working excellent and the paddles are a welcomed addition. The in-case charging is nice so I can keep it safe. Only issue is that if you drop the controller any of the changeable parts will potentially fly off into wonderland!

    I hadn’t actually intended to buy the elite series 2, but I was having issues with one of my joysticks on the elite series 1 controller. I learned it would be nearly the same price as buying the newer model to send in the old one for repair, so I went ahead and ordered the series 2. The controller feels great, just like the series 1, but the battery life is incredible. Highly recommend this controller!

    The things you can do with this controller are awesome. Extra button mapping vibration turned off or to your liking. Can even change the color on the Xbox logo at ease Have 4 different button mapped set ups all at the click of a button
