Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is my second elite controller the first had issues with the bumpers, I’ve had the second for two years now and the only issues are stick drift but you can fix that with the advanced settings.

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Controller is awesome! The controls are super responsive, and you can customize everything, which is great for gaming. The battery lasts forever, so no need to charge it all the time. It's a bit pricey, but worth it for serious gamers. Highly recommend!

Love this controller, bought first Gen and 2nd Gen twice now. After a few years the rubber mats on left side started to separate, while trying to fix it, I made it worse. So I bought another. Long lasting battery, tons of great customization I can switch up even mid game. Look fwd to Gen 3 but will today enjoy and recommend this controller to everyone

Read alot of reviews about stick drift and issues with the elite and elite core. I’ve have had no issues so far and really enjoying the controller. I’ve had it for a couple weeks and pretty happy! I bought scuff paddles off amazon which i prefer over the microsoft paddles.

this pro controller for xbox is amazing. i have the pro controller for playstation so it only right for me to do the same thing with xbox and since out of the box, i love it! especially with the cool features it comes with!

It's a very comfortable smooth remote. It's a very good casing very good remote controls response very good battery power

I’ve bought this controller again and again, And will buy again if need. It lasts long and work extremely excellent. Then from customization to the mechanics work amazing. It also comes with a carry case along with interchangeable pieces. The best part is it’s also rechargeable. Not to also mention the adjustable triggers

I'm not generally one to buy fancy controllers as I usually have a hard time justifying their price tags. This controller however, I do not regret purchasing. Being able to adjust the joystick tension makes it worth its price all on its own. The grip feels great in my hands and the battery life is exceptional. I finally have a switch pro replacement.

I thought this controller was all hype over-priced. I finally caved thinking i was going eventually return it and stick to my tutle beach recon once my victix went to trash. I will not use any controller except this elitr series 2. I just bought the core and bought scuff paddles and its next level. The response time and low low low latency is godly. I personally use it connected withba wire becuse imo wired everything beats wireless coming from a PC gamer but this controller is so precise without being wired its impressive. It honestly made me better playing For Honor. I may just grab another one if it goes on sale as a backup even though this controller is very well built. Compared to the victrix whixh feels like a piece of cardboard. This elite series 2 is no joke. Definitely not a fad or a hype. If you play xbox or pc with controller its this over anything. Dont even bother with a scuf. This is mind blowing next level precison.

I’ve been using the Xbox Elite Series 2 in red, and honestly, it feels amazing. The build quality is solid, the grip is super comfortable, and the customization options make every game more fun. What I love most is how smooth and precise the sticks and triggers feel—it’s like the controller responds exactly how I want. Plus, the red finish looks so good in person. Definitely my favorite controller ever.

Great product, durable lasts a long time. Only repurchased to to my kid slamming my controller on the ground cause he thought it would be funny, happened to mess up the whole left side of the controller function

This controller has become my instant favorite. I have had many controllers over the years from Atari clear through to modern systems, and have preferred my Nintendo Switch Pro controller until now with my Xbox One controller being a distant second. I personally did not like the system included series x controller because of the dpad but this product has the ability to change dpads with ease and remedied that issue. The analog resistance features for the bumpers and thumb-sticks have been excellent between titles. The additional software type adjustments is phenomal once calibrated. It also lets a user save between different profiles for quick load. Throw in an adjustable color profile for the controllers backlight on the home button and it can be easy to quickly distinguish which profile is being used (outside the normal profile light indicator). The battery life is on par or better than the Nintendo Switch Pro controller and is leaps and bounds away from the recharchable package for the Xbox one.

I have been using this controller for over a year and still works like its brand new. Internal batteries so you just chage it after playing!

Very heavy and sturdy controller, the additional paddles and buttons give it a lot more versatility to manage game play. Everything about it is sleek and high functioning. However there is some joystick drift after awhile and bumpers can start to lose sensitivity so keep in mind

The best controller I’ve ever used. You can change the tension on the left and right thumbsticks independently as well as the left and right trigger travel. The grip texture feels secure yet comfortable. FPS and platformer games are more enjoyable with this controller. Playing on a Windows 11 PC. I found a red controller on sale with the Total Membership for $94 which was well worth it considering normal controllers are around $70.

This remote is awesome. From the interchangable thumbsticks and hair triggers to the completely remappable paddles. Perfect for all types of gamers! You can tell the moment you pick it up this is a quality and durable product! Not to mention the fact that the case doubles as a charger when you set the cintroller inside!

I’ve tried a dozen different Xbox controllers and this is one of my favorite. They discontinued the last controller that I fell in love with, and this has filled the void. Easy to acquire and works fantastic.

This is Top notch controller on the market this purchase was actually my second one because I fell in love with the first . Controller feel in the hand is 5/5 Customization is simple 5/5 Mapping and U.I simple user friendly 5/5 I’ve had other customizable controllers but they were to complicated to use every week there was a firmware update and the quality felt cheap . The only downside is that this controller does NOT come with a wireless dongle . I’m still going to give the controller 5 stars but in the future XBOX / Microsoft please add the wire dongle in the box .

I’ve been using the Xbox Elite Series 2 Core controller for a while now, and it’s honestly a game-changer. Customizable buttons are the greatest. The ability to swap out thumbsticks and adjust the trigger sensitivity also help a lot. It feels solid and substantial in your hands. The battery life, is a huge plus—no need to constantly charge it (though I usually do). It also survived a bluberry beer spill almost immediately after unboxing. Bonus. The only downside I've found is the price, which is why I took so long to buy one.

Sadly I keep repurchasing this after already replacing the one from the warranty because it falls apart after enough hours of play. The rubber grips are heat seals so they come off eventually, the paddles lose their responsiveness to the touch, and the bumpers eventually fail. Surprisingly, I can’t recall ever having stock drift on one of these things and I’ve gone through probably 6-7 of them throughout the lifetime of the product. I’ve noticed that bestbuy changed the warranty from a 1 year to a more expensive 2 year warranty. Product has issues before 1 year with enough play. TLDR: love having this product but hate how it falls apart way quicker than the regular controllers.
