This is the best official controller Microsoft has to offer. I love the weight and feel. Only that’s missing his Hall effect sticks. I bought open box and it was missing the tension adjustment tool so I took off 1 star.

amazing product, due to the fact of personal customization for each game and the interchangeable d-pads, paddles, and thumb sticks, i love the fact i can change them out when im switching games and switching my play style. i personally am a multi gamer, and i switch out my games constantly so im always changing my play styles and switching pieces on my controller. i do highly recommend this product.

Nice weight, solid rubber grip, and love the triggers how they lock up. Just wish it wasn’t so expensive

Love the weight, accessories, swappable thumbsticks. Long battery life. My only complaint or nitpick would be the non- removable battery for long term purposes. I recommend getting geeksquad protection for that reason.

The microsoft elite controller 2 is the best controller Ive owned! The grip on the handle is very comfortable, the adjustable triggers and joysticks make it the most personalized controller out there currently!! It’s rechargeability is exactly what XBOX has been missing all these years!! The controller may be a little pricey but in comparison to the stock controller, this controller blows it out of the water!!

The elite controller feels more solid/heavier than a standard xbox controller and has more attachments for buttons/triggers which helps in a variety of games. I do recommend getting the warranty though because I had issues with my first one not connecting correctly and disconnecting randomly. My 2nd one has fared better but the nubs on the back that switches the tension fell off within the year. Other than that the battery life is good and it charges via USB-C.

No complaints at all! No need to worry about battries and the grip on the controller handles are great!

Great value. I use this on my PC and it works perfect. The built in rechargeable batteries last all day.

Right out of the box the quality of the controller is amazing, the weight from the metal and the grip they used felt amazing. All around it’s the best bang for your buck controller. The only reason I gave one less star is that I bought the controller assuming it came with paddles but it didn’t and that’s my fault obviously it caused me to go on amazon and buy and wait for the paddles to come.

The elite controller is great, I've had a couple of series 1 and 2. I would recommend the protection plan, the controller will break in some capacity, all pro controllers are infamous for this, whether it be stick drift, grips pealing, broken bumpers, or broken charging port, something will eventually go wrong with it.

Works great feels comfortable with great grip and extra controls help a lot in matches

The best controller on the market for Xbox or PC. Build quality is great, has good weight to it, love the lack of cables and shiny appearance. But... How does a controller this expensive have so many issues with the buttons? Not even a week after buying this for my Jedi:Survivor play through on PC, it registers the "A" button about 9/10 times. Now, that sounds like a nitpick, but consider making a jump in a platformer ONLY 9/10 times by no fault of your own, after paying so much for a controller. You either need to press down HARD or press down perfectly nadir for it to register every time. Totally unacceptable for a controller of this price point. Why is it still "good"? Everything else is beyond wonderful, except the "A" button which many other users have reported issues with. Had it RMA'd and done custom fixes, nothing works. MS just had a poor "A" design I guess. Get it if you have money to spend and hope for the best. Or like using the paddles which work very nicely. Otherwise, I recommend the standard version. I have one too and has zero issues.

I liked it a lot; the controller is very comfortable and works perfectly.

Honesty debated for months over this purchase. Finally made it and don’t regret it. The quality is clear and the weight and paddles take time to get used to but it’s more than worth it.

Nice controller. Heavier than the default controllers. Great battery life. Had trouble with my rb button. Return was more difficult than expected. Even as a best buy total plus member, i could only return through microsoft. They did fix and send back though. Seems to be fine so far.

Love this controller. Been a gamechanger for apex and COD. great battery life.

Love these controllers but despise the fact that the common issues have still not been addressed. Left bumper has failed me on 4 of these controllers. Battery life is excellent, weight is great, paddles and customizability is fantastic. Just the freaking bumpers that always seem to crap out. Oh and stick drift has always been a problem. Given the price and the fact that pretty much everything else about it is solid, I would expect the bumpers to hold up better.

Great controller and nice feel. Like the white and black combo.

Very comfortable you’re able to adjust a different settings and the Xbox light change color to I set it too I love it.

This was the one I swapped the blue controller with that was definitely a refurbished being sold as new. This on had no paddle presets, xbox light is bright and it was 100% clean. I just didn't want white because it gets dirty faster but it was the only other one available besides the normal elite series 2 for $200. Other then that great controller and it works just like the normal elite 2s. Very happy with the product and that it was new and not used.
