Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works great! Comfortable and easy to use. Feels good when using for extended periods of time.

Very comfortable controller The best controller ever made so far

Great controller. It has a great feel and weight to it. The grip on this is much better than the original model. No such drift as of yet, so fingers crossed

its a great controller till it gets stick drift. not even two weeks and right analog stick drifts towards the left. Pro - Feels Good on hand. magnetic thumbs stick 4 back paddles comes with disc d pad

So much nicer than stock controller. Custom profiles are a game changer. Takes some getting used to utilizing the paddles but they come in handy in shooters and from software games (dodge roll, jump, heal). All of the materials and options are very nice to have. I recommend buying the service plan as many reports online state the controller can become faulty.

The Microsoft Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller sets a new standard for premium gaming peripherals. Its customizable features, including interchangeable thumbsticks and paddles, offer unparalleled control and comfort for extended gaming sessions. While its premium price tag may deter some, the Elite Series 2 delivers a superior gaming experience that justifies the investment for serious gamers.

Great product even though overtime it does become with stick drift played a little to much NHL

I bought this controller back in July of 2025. I am a pretty competitive gamer, and I like to utilize paddles as it tremendously helps my performance. Although these controllers are a little pricey, they are definitely worth the money if you are a consistent gamer like myself!

Easily my favorite game controller out there. Easlily interchangeable with xbox and PC, very long battery life, durable, some customizable parts, and great carrying/charging case. I did have to replace it recently though due to RB button failure. Even with it's extensive use, the failure happened a bit sooner than I expected. These things are pretty well built. Don't think I can ever go back to regular controllers.

I like many features about this but there are some things I wish I could further tweak. Pros: - So much button and stick customization - RGB light behind Xbox logo - Metal D-pad and back button triggers - Quality feel - Rubber grips do a good job of helping with “sweaty palm syndromes” by being a quick drying grid style rubber Cons: - Much heavier than any custom controller I’ve ever owned - Not personally a fan of back button trigger placement/configuration - RGB light not very vibrant or as expansive in colors available as it likes to advertise I think overall I’m happy with the purchase, but I don’t think I’ll buy it again. I will wait for what they make next or seek a different brand.

These controllers are the most comfortable options available. The rear buttons are placed perfectly and the battery lasts forever. I've unfortunately had to return/exchange a couple due to stick drift. If they could figure that out, it would be the perfect controller.

The swappable thumbsticks, D-pad, and paddles allow for a highly customizable experience, catering to different play styles which was the main reason I made this purchase. I truly enjoy using this controller and I can’t wait to see what Microsoft does to the next generation of it.

I really like the hefty weight the controller has, and I can't play without the paddles anymore. However, after about a year of use the right bumper sometimes drops the input. while one of the paddles feel stiff. On top of if I squeeze it a little to hard it cuts off. And it randomly disconnects. I really love this controller. I just wish it lasted a little longer for the price tag

Works great! Really improving my gaming! I also can use on all my gaming systems computer, Xbox, mobile phone.

Best controller ive ever had hands down. Open box deal through best buy and ive had this for a year as my everyday Xbox and PC controller. It is mt favortie and if it ever breaks i will gladly pay to replace it. Heavier and made with better materials than a traditional xbox controller

I like these controllers alot because the battery last forever and the build quality is strong, but the best part is the customizable functions that makes Elite. Having this control much control can give you an advantage during certain games.

Feels like about 100 dollars worth of controller for the low low price of 200 dollars. Honestly it has some neat features, the typical things found on previous iterations of elite and scuf controllers but with added things like 3 quick change profiles, adjustable stick tension and a very long lasting recharablge battery pack that recharges when placed back inside its case. I'll be eager to see if my favorite microsoft controller feature will make a triumphant return on the elite version 2....stick drift, it's been missing so far, but its not outside its factory warranty period...so there's still time.

The Xbox wireless controller is comfortable to use, light and quickly reactive. It is also durable over time.

I'm really surprised at how well I adapt to the new controller, it's extremely easy to handle and the battery has lasted a long time, since I bought it I can play better and it complements my laptop so well that I use it for everything, both as a mouse and to play games.

This is my second Elite S2 the first lasted about a year and the left stick was broken all the way up couldn't bring it back down. The A button would get stuck down and the LB RB would stick. Keep in mind im retired and I game constantly, well over 90hrs a week, so I'm pretty abusive to my controllers. I would guess about 2-3 years for a normal usage gamer. I love the controller and im going to keep buying them as they break until they have a new model. Its conformable customizable and lasts way longer than your standard edition. Sure its expensive but I think the price is worth it. (Get the warranty)
