Awesome controller with extra paddle buttons on the bottom for advanced gameplay.

Got this as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it!

Fits in my hand like a glove. Easy changeable pieces.

The person it was purchased for loved it. It was a Xmas gift.

Works great for about a year with heavy use, then plan on needing repairs.

FYI They don't come with paddles...Still a great controller, love the trigger locks and and stick tightening. If you play COD this is a must...If you're brave enough you can buy the paddles on their own.

Purchased this for my son’s birthday while it was on sale before christmas. his birthday is the second week of January, and the controller was nicely priced at around $104 or something like that. The controller worked great, out of the box, but come back a week later and it is dead. No biggie, but long story short, after trying to charge it for a few days, still not working, so go to take it back and was denied by Best Buy. They said I should have purchased the $50 extended warranty or some such. Disappointed to say the least. Wont be purchasing from Best Buy again. That same day, purchased new washer (not from BB though)…

Great if you need a second controlller for the xbox

Love the response and quality the controller has!!!

Very solid controller, you can feel its well build when you hold it. I'm giving it a 3 stars because the stick-drift issue. they need to fix this issue once and for all. other than that, its a really good controller.

Controllers experience drift alot. Other than that they work great. I recommend warranties on these since the drift occurs on all of them.

Love this controller so much! Best controller ever

Better than the series 1 but still has little drift

Literally the best controller I’ve ever owned, great customization options with paddles and the trigger stops along with the thumb stick extension, precise aiming and movement, highly highly recommend.

The controller feels and looks great, but can only be charged with a wire. The battery cant be removed, which means if it fails the controller is a goner.

There are two main issues with this controller that I believe every single controller suffers from, just due to the design. First, unresponsive face buttons. If you're the type of person who grazes over the buttons at an angle with a lighter touch then I can guarantee you will have problems, especially with the Y and A buttons. I have yet to come across a Series 2 Elite that does not have this problem. Out of the dozen or so that I've played with literally every single one had this problem. If you're more of a masher type then you probably will not encounter this, this is an issue specifically for players with a lighter touch. I do not have this issue on the Series 1 Elite or the stock OEM controller. Second, this controller has massive dead zones, and it's a hardware issue not software. No amount of tweaking in the Accessories app will solve this problem, it's clearly hardware related. People who aren't sensitive to dead zones may not notice, but if you rely on precise analog sticks for shooters and such then this controller might drive you nuts. Also, no adjusting the tension in the analog sticks does not help. Many people are having all sorts of other problems, like faulty shoulder buttons, sticky face buttons, etc but I believe the two issues I outlined above are a result of the poor design and will plague literally every single controller, it's just that many people are button mashers or press the buttons at a 90 degree angle so they don't notice. I'm amazed more people aren't complaining about dead zones because that too is an issue I've seen on literally every single Series 2 I've touched, I guess I'm more sensitive to it than others. I absolutely do not expect Microsoft to resolve these problems. Their terrible 90 day limited warranty is a testament to how they don't stand by their own "pro" level products. Even Microsoft doesn't trust these controllers, why should you?

I had bought this as a refurbished product, I really did love the first elite series of Xbox controllers. After 3 weeks of use the controller analog stick is stuck going left and the B button is mapped to the A button somehow... I WOULD be able to remap it but the OFFICIAL Xbox accessories app doesn't support this controller and I do not have an Xbox so I'm stuck with default configurations. I'm returning this tomorrow. Pro: Bluetooth works flawlessly on my windows PC Build Quality is excellent Love the way it charges in the case Con: Can't remap on Windows 11 No longer functions after three weeks of use. I would purchase another but since I can't remap, I will be passing on that.

Awesome controller. I can not say enought about it

Great upgrade from a regular controller. The trigger selection is a game changer. And the interchangeable parts is a a big plus too. I’ve had the controller for almost a year and so far so good!

This controller has so many options, handles perfectly, adapts to your gamers needs and has it all, including a carry case for travel. Price is right and my son loves it!
