Good replacement from the series 1 but I have reservations.

The new series 2 XBox controller is great - I also have the original Series 1 Elite controller. Both are a more solid feel in the hand than the supplied controller that is with the XBox X. However, I would have liked to have seen the series 2 version come with highlighted A, B, X and Y buttons like the supplied controller. Much easier to see if you are playing in a darkened environment. Plus, I am not entirely sure why Microsoft have moved away from not having an interchangeable controller battery. The battery in the Series 2 controller is not removable and needs to be charged via its C type charging connector. Thus over time if the battery performance degrades, I'm not sure if it can be swapped out. However, despite my reservations on the non-removable battery, I still have given the Series 2 Elite controller a 5 Star rating.Read full review...

Great controller plagued by manufacturing faults.

Amazing hand-feel but the controller I received suffers from the face button manufacturing fault that is apparently common to the Elite 2: the hole in the outer shell is too big for the buttons meaning the A button has wiggle room and does not always register presses. Easily fixed by slotting some tape/paper down the side of the button but this is a rather ugly fix and not ideal for a £100 premium product.Read full review...

Makes such a difference

Once you get familiar with the button layout and your own customisation, it makes such a difference to your game play. I held off so long from buying due to the price however has proven to make me a better player, especially on my favourite game COD. The paddles on the back are the hardest to get your head around as your first instinct is to go for the XYAB buttons but once you do, you keep your fingers on your thumb sticks all the time which is one of the keys to being quicker. There are so many customisable options on the controller but loads of videos on YouTube to help you with that. I now wouldn’t be without mine, I am sure you will feel the same.Read full review...

Elite Series 2 Controller.

What a piece of kit this is. It took me from starting out using only two paddles but worked my way up to all four and I play mostly shooter games. Keeping my left and right thumbs on the left and right movement and aiming makes a match difference on winning. Also with three adjustments on trigger and zoom makes lightning fast response especially when using the single shot 🔫 lol.Read full review...

If you want the best - this is it.

This is without question the best game controller that I have ever used. It is solidly built, responsive and highly configurable. I am not a hard-core gamer and won't use many of the user customisable options but I'm very glad I bought itRead full review...

Quality feel but not all that.

Don't get me wrong it's a great controller with cast metal optional length thumbsticks and other lovely satin chrome parts but the left hand bumper button snaps internally and there is some stick drift that comes and then goes about halfway through its life. It can be a nightmare to put back together correctly once you have replaced the bumper button assembly as the rubber palm grips seem to want to detach from the body no matter how you jam them in place when screwing the casings together....The rubber on the 'Concave' topped thumbsticks can also split and break off.Read full review...

Best in class.

The elite 2 is the best gaming controller in the market. You can customise with 3 different game modes and with 40 hours battery life. The truly is a elite product.

new features worth having !

much improved on the 1st edition of the elite controler.
the adjustments you can make to the thumb sticks feel is a great new feature.
charging is simple and easy - although i guess time will tell how good the battery is over the years (fingers crossed)
my only issue is that sometimes the buttons just cont register when pressed lighly or very quick (see fifa 20) this was not a problem with the 1st elite controler - infact it was much more button consistant than the standard plastic one

Overpriced

Don't get me wrong it's a great controller, well made and good quality but it's hard to justify the price. The ability to tweak the settings is good but when you've done it once, that's it. Seems pricey. Read full review...
