I couldn't imagine the Series X without this. It makes the experience so much better. You'll always wonder "do I need a controller that cost that much" and when you finally hold it you'll see how you can't go back
The elite 2 will be better when they update it to use the same wireless protocol as the new series X/S controllers, we'll see less input lag then. Not sure why the update hadn't already released.
Need a series 3 elite controller ok stick drift is a problem.we can't solve it but maybe a lifetime warranty on it since its a controller that has to go through being abused alot like 24.7 gamers for a regular gamer this controller will last if you don't throw it at the wall lol I broke mine from playing gears tactics £160 down the drain now I am using a the normal controller lets just say I miss my elite controller 2 the bigger thumsticks were the reason for buying it
I think elite is for people who like to play games really serious or on competitive games, so if you're a casual player i recommend the normal one but its your choice
After playing with the series X controller for a bit, it might be worth waiting, if they don’t bring out a new controller they’re being financially irresponsible tbh, the texture padding and coating is much better on the default S/X controller than the elite 2, that being said, I still LOVE my elite and think it’s a fantastic controller but even I can tell there are improvements to be made and I’m sure Microsoft sees that too.
I really appreciate this video and ideas you gave me. I just got Series X and the Elite S2 controller. Coming from PS4, everything is new to me and I felt lost. This guide was really helpful. Thanks a lot.
Good tips, but if you are mapping a paddle to a stick click it is a waste of a paddle as you want to keep your fingers on the sticks, so to press a stick in you don't need to move your fingers, you should set a paddle to a button that you have to press thats isn't near the sticks like y, x, a, b, or any d pad buttons
Be nice if they could bring one out with zero drift issues. Bought two of the original elites and my friend had the same issue with the 2nd variation, defiantly gonna wait for a 3rd version.
Ha! I switched to Xbox with elite controller because Sony didn’t make last gen back paddle attachment compatible with PS5. To me, this feature is more important than the new adaptive trigger function they added.
Dude the controller is only great on PC people buying this for a console are trash gamers... you mean to tell me everyone using the regulator controller and you need a controller with easier access to a duck button wasting a whole button??? You just succ dude
@@MarCoViTV this is one of the worst takes I’ve read all month. Bro what are you on about. Most people who purchased this controller play on Xbox and Xbox only. If you play on pc you have no reason to use a controller in the first place. And how is it a waste of buttons? You clearly have never touched a pro, scuff, or elite controller in your life.
I love this controller. I hate waiting 2 weeks every time I have to send it in for stick drift... Which takes about 4 months of Warzone quarantine play. Sniff.
The controller does have its share of QC problems. Stick drift is nothing to all types of controller, shoulder buttons sometimes do not register. If it is brand new out of the box, sometimes certain buttons get stuck but a little rubbing alcohol fixes that. New controllers sometimes have sticky residue left over after manufacturing. I sent an Elite 2 controller in for a shoulder button issue and I just received the replacement. A little rubbing alcohol fixed the "B" button getting stuck here and there. The new one seems to be ok. It is hard for me to go back to regular controllers. I also had an Elite Gen 1 which started having issues and just returned it under BestBuy warranty and got another Elite 2 with warranty. Paid the difference of $30, so now I have 2 Elite 2s. I know they have their issues but they are solid.
I guess I got somewhat lucky bc mine has been flawless for hundreds of hours (bought it within a month of release). Thanks for sharing your experience and tips!!
Honestly I rate the controller 10/10 I’m close to a year in and the L3 button has defected. +Slight drift on the right stick. All in all it’s been a fantastic controller and I never pick any of my other controllers up. I can sympathise with ms for having a heavy load on their customer service but requesting a call back after struggling to build a service order on Mac or iPhone has been dead ended a few times now.
Update.. sorted now. Only took 4 days 🥴. Fr tho great product, still recommend. Best controller in production IMO. Will be getting version 3 when it inevitably comes soon 😅
Not at all! They upped the warranty to a year. Made a call appointment and they called me a half hour later. Told them my issue with the right bumper and they sent me a shipping label. I sent it out and it has a tracking from when the label was sent to when I’ll get the new controller. Sure it will take some time but hell they will replace it.
Had this for 1 month. Even day 1 there was right stick drift issue. Now both sticks are drifting. Controller feels so so good but its broken. I hope they can solve this problem in the future.
I swear I have elite series 2 controller and I cannot go back to the old controllers the elite series 2 just feels premium Edit: you should note this the controller does have durability issues so make sure you have a warrenty some issues of the controller that might happen are 1. Unresponsive bumpers 2. Stick drift 3. Stiff paddles 4. Unresponsive paddles 4. Uneven triggers ( what that means is when using the trigger stops they might be at different heights even if their on the same setting ) 5. The trigger stop tops fall off sometimes 6. And things start to make weird sound after awhile like triggers might make sounds that are not normal. Note: I had a launch controller so maybe they fixed problems like these by now.
I wish Microsoft would fix all the problems the Elite seems to have. I’ve read far too many reviews stating problems to risk paying that much for something. And I’d rather not deal with returning it or sending it to Microsoft.
The 3 year warranty cost $20. You would pay more than $200 in controllers and batteries over the next 3 years. Nobody should buy these without a warranty, because they just send you a new one for any issues.
RB and LB buttons on mine do not work properly. I had to remap them to my paddles. If I want them to work I have to slam on them. Quite frustrating tbh
But no low latency update if functionality... would have thought they would have planned a head.. or did they in the fact they can now sell you a new one with these features.
Are there still issues with the Elite Series 2 controllers or was that resolved? I held off on buying one bc of all of the 6month reviews I saw posted.
Everything has issues even multimillion pound cars it was not a issue that made a recall across the batch select few over a majority. I hate the people that create the fake narratives probably PS fan bois
Yeah also heard about there being a lot of issues. Last I checked it was heavily discounted within the UK a fair few months ago, which was a worrying sign. Going to research again.
@@jillianw8901 I just had a quick look, the prices have gone back up... I'm thinking/hoping that version 3 will have the adaptive trigger equivalent to the PS5. I'm going to be patience for once and wait it out lol
I wanna get the elite but I can’t it’s too expensive for me it looks really good and the triggers would be good for like any shooter game like fortnite,modern warfare and Cold War
I’m telling yah if you can map right or left stick click to any letter on the controller than this controller is cool af along with sensitivity this is some good stuff
Why is nothing mentioned about DLI (low latency input ) update to these controllers? I traded in my elite series 1 controller as soon as series 2 came out and As this is a premium piece of kit i would have thought the most sensible thing to do as when released microsoft boasted about it being future ready for series x that this update would have been ready for release day of the series s/x? I can't bring my self to use my stock series x controller as I'm to heavily invested in my elite series 2 controller due to the paddles and hair lock triggers plus the adjustable tension on the thumb sticks so PLEASE roll the firmware update out ASAP
Not many games support it besides some 1st party ones it seems. Cold War doesn’t have it it seems like (atleast on wulff dens sub par test method) series x controller clocks in at about 8 ms at 60hz witch is the same as Xbox one X input lag. PS5 a lot faster doing input lag times similar to what you can expect from DLI supported series x games at around 4.5 ms at 60 hz. Then ofc better at 120 hz. So maybe PS 5 have similar tech in their dev kit and Cold War is better optimized for PS5 then it is for Xbox series X witch wouldn’t surprise me. I’ve heard Fortnite and Destiny 2 might have DLI though but I don’t know for sure.
@@christiansoneson5631 what is it over 120hz on series x? I'm assuming it's 4ms if it's 8ms over 60hz or is that just on cold war without DLI? And are games on series x that support DLI closer to 2ms over 120hz? As for first party games i would benefit from DLI for gears 5 as the coalition have boasted a huge reduction in input delay on series x and as there's lots of things wrong with the game and this would help. I have heard microsoft plan on rolling out DLI to xbox one accessories including the elite series 2 but will that be b4 the release of halo infinite because i really hope so 🙏😂 Thanks for the reply too 👍🏻
@@steview0ndaxsx808 depends on the games native input lag also. Best case scenario is 2ms as they advertised but I think 4 ms should be more what you can expect from most games. We will see in the end. I know one of the best console tech channels are about to drop a vid on it soon.

After about a year I'm having problems with the left stick. It briefly stops working while pushing upwards. It didn't happen with the standard controller.
The elite 2 doesn't have this issue as the grip pattern is pressed into the actual material of the controller rather than stuck on with weak glue like on the original.
Anybody having connectivity/strange pairing issues with the controller and the series X? Ive had my elite 2 with my xbox one for a year now with no problems, I got my series X and my controller is acting strange now
I’m having similar issues with the series S. sometimes when I turn on elite controller won’t turn on Console and won’t connect when console switched on got to turn both off and try and it sometimes re sync. Haven’t worked out a permanent fix yet. Battery is fully charged firmware up to date and instant sign in is on. Hopefully a firmware update will be out soon to solve the issue.
I love this controller but my controller has a lot of issues. A button sometimes doesn’t register as well as the B button, My left stick dosent register sometimes, and last is that both stick have mad drift stick.
I have Elite 1 and I say that after I tried it I can't go back to the traditional. If Microsoft hadn't fallen for the sonist conversation and created the Elite 2 with a removable battery, I would certainly buy one too.
Actually the built in rechargeable battery on the series 2 should come to more standard xbox controllers. Thats the one thing I appreciate about ps controllers but I still prefer xbox
I hate I mean dirt dog hate the grips or let’s say the rubber and the lack of grip it provides, if you look at a sweet X/S halo 20th AV Edition controller which comes in the HALO X/S one console it’s supreme compared to the elite 2 grips , it stay put in your hands, while the E2 will slide around and move while in both hands, I just don’t get what would of been so hard to apply some of the upgrades which came on the X/S controllers to the E2 ..anyway I’d go on, but I doubt anyone at XBOX is listening to someone who’s ONLY BEEN PLAYING XBOX SINCE THE DAY HALO DROPPED AFTER SITTING OUTSIDE THE STORE FOR 24hrs, on top of owning 6 of the original Xbox units and had then hardwired in each bedroom,living room, and my game room so all my friends could play in teams of two against each other …but hey it’s not like I don’t still have 5 Xbox ones,one Scorpio,and one halo X/S system, still, lol…come one pls fix the E2, I was really disappointed when I finally broke down and got it today…xoxoxo
@@VincentGonz I think so, it feels so much better as the new Series X pad feels cheap. Awesome for shooters with small trigger pulls and back buttons. The charge on it seems to last forever to, i hardly ever have to charge it. You can tighten up the sticks to which helps with my bad aim hehe
Q: Has anyone had any trouble with the elite 2 bumpers and buttons not working correctly on mobile ?? I bought 1 and took it back to the store 2 times and the 3rd new controller later still the same issues...Also yes I've updated it to current functionality ?? Help??
I think Microsoft needs to have an answer to the Dualsense. For real. They need to add atleast adaptive triggers. All gaming sites praise it all the time. I think it will impact where people choose to play third partie titles.
I have a PS5. I'm on the fence how much I care about the haptic feedback but the adaptive triggers are very cool - especially in Call of Duty. I agree. I'd love to see Microsoft adapt it.
@@MisfitToy Cool! 👍I have the Series X and it's awesome so far. I will wait a year or so and see if Microsoft announses some new features to the controllers. Doubt it but you never now. Big changes to controllers have happened in the past.
@@memorycard1000 Agreed. Yeah I have the Series X too. The Xbox controller is actually overall more comfortable to hold and the rumble is nice. Haptic feedback is kind of cool but also sometimes feels like too much. It can distract from the game.
Funny how no one is talking about the update. It's a bit laggy on the Next Gen console. Currently it's in the case and I'm using the controller that came with the series X. It's much more responsive
I love my elite 2 but does anyone else find it has serious lag on doom eternal for some reason. It’s only when I try and go forward and it’s the same whether in Xbox SX or on pc.
This controller is so good that my lb doesn’t work left stick doesn’t work dpad doesent work and sticky left trigger so yeah your supposed thousands of testing on this controller must have been fake I haven’t even had this for a year and it’s impossible for me to play
It's going to be interesting to find out how Xbox ends up getting the companies and what companies they get most likely they won't be able to get Sega but that doesn't mean a girl can't dream.
SMH still today, sure we customers have to undo the mistake of a genius of engineer removing the share button to set up as a shift function to activate it so we can take Screenshots . And later it will get messed up by the app and we have to remapp again and again. I remember in 2000 when Mercedes and Volkswagen forced customers to suck the oil instead of releasing it and they got sued for that and removed that immediately from production. Forcing customers to changing simple habbits is causing problems and not solving them . Me personally i spend money to get rid of a problem not to buy one.
The dead zone on Xbox controllers are terrible compared to PS4 DualShock. I have to move the Xbox joystick a certain distance then it picks up where as DualShock is INSTANT as soon as the joystick moves a hair. Xbox is not good for games like call of duty
That New Playstation 5 controller is not better then the Xbox Elite Series two Controller. Xbox Controller's Design and Quality is better then Playstation, Xbox Elite Series two Controller is the best Controller that you can Buy......

I have Elite 1 and I say that after I tried it I can't go back to the traditional. If Microsoft hadn't fallen for the sonist conversation and created the Elite 2 with a removable battery, I would certainly buy one too.
Actually the built in rechargeable battery on the series 2 should come to more standard xbox controllers. Thats the one thing I appreciate about ps controllers but I still prefer xbox
Play and charge kit is the best, always ready to go. Can't understand the preferences for internal battery.
@@qSPARTANp yeah after 1-2 years the battery is dead
I never got one because I'm afraid it'll get a defect like all of my past normal ones.
We need Xbox series X console. Colors
White. Green

Well my elite has phone keybinds instead of buttons for the game.(when I try to play on cloud)
Is this BennyCentral (Same voice)
So now I need this controller. Paddle for switching gears in horizon I think will be awesome. And triggers for COD also awesome. Thank you MS.
Trust me it is. It makes it feel like you're driving a car with paddle shifters
@@Cacao613 thank you bro, I imagine it’s really useful gamepad. I need to buy it :). Tyvm
Thought about getting one before I saw the price. So i bought a switch lite instead
Bruuh
Of all versions of the Switch you bought you bought the Lite version. Just hope you don't get stick drift issues with it.
The compression on bennys voice is intense
I hate I mean dirt dog hate the grips or let’s say the rubber and the lack of grip it provides, if you look at a sweet X/S halo 20th AV Edition controller which comes in the HALO X/S one console it’s supreme compared to the elite 2 grips , it stay put in your hands, while the E2 will slide around and move while in both hands, I just don’t get what would of been so hard to apply some of the upgrades which came on the X/S controllers to the E2 ..anyway I’d go on, but I doubt anyone at XBOX is listening to someone who’s ONLY BEEN PLAYING XBOX SINCE THE DAY HALO DROPPED AFTER SITTING OUTSIDE THE STORE FOR 24hrs, on top of owning 6 of the original Xbox units and had then hardwired in each bedroom,living room, and my game room so all my friends could play in teams of two against each other …but hey it’s not like I don’t still have 5 Xbox ones,one Scorpio,and one halo X/S system, still, lol…come one pls fix the E2, I was really disappointed when I finally broke down and got it today…xoxoxo
I just ordered the elite 2 as my new Series X pad has started to ware out already. The anolog stick has gone rough and grindy.
So you'll say the elite controller V2 is worth it?
@@VincentGonz I think so, it feels so much better as the new Series X pad feels cheap. Awesome for shooters with small trigger pulls and back buttons. The charge on it seems to last forever to, i hardly ever have to charge it. You can tighten up the sticks to which helps with my bad aim hehe
Q: Has anyone had any trouble with the elite 2 bumpers and buttons not working correctly on mobile ?? I bought 1 and took it back to the store 2 times and the 3rd new controller later still the same issues...Also yes I've updated it to current functionality ?? Help??
My a button on my series 2 is un responsive from time to time. Very frustrating.
Hello xbox. My xbox serious x turns off every time i play cod. Cold war
I think Microsoft needs to have an answer to the Dualsense. For real. They need to add atleast adaptive triggers. All gaming sites praise it all the time. I think it will impact where people choose to play third partie titles.
I have a PS5. I'm on the fence how much I care about the haptic feedback but the adaptive triggers are very cool - especially in Call of Duty. I agree. I'd love to see Microsoft adapt it.
@@MisfitToy Cool! 👍I have the Series X and it's awesome so far. I will wait a year or so and see if Microsoft announses some new features to the controllers. Doubt it but you never now. Big changes to controllers have happened in the past.
@@memorycard1000 Agreed. Yeah I have the Series X too. The Xbox controller is actually overall more comfortable to hold and the rumble is nice. Haptic feedback is kind of cool but also sometimes feels like too much. It can distract from the game.
Please that's the Nintendo switch let's move on pony 🐴
@@JJACK2024 What are you on about?
Thanks 👍
It needs a firmware update. The swap axis feature aka legacy is broken. If I could just adjust deadzones it would be PERFECT.
Funny how no one is talking about the update. It's a bit laggy on the Next Gen console. Currently it's in the case and I'm using the controller that came with the series X. It's much more responsive
I love the new capture on controller
I use my elite series 2 for Rocket league. I need these paddles for it.
Yes customization is very important in RL, on my standard xbox controller I use LT as boost, b as drive backwards and x as air roll right
@@standupyak i‘ll use the left paddle for air roll right (x button), because i can‘t click 3 buttons at the same time
@@OnePiece_61 it works for me
Can't get a Series X right now because of scalpers.
I love my elite 2 but does anyone else find it has serious lag on doom eternal for some reason. It’s only when I try and go forward and it’s the same whether in Xbox SX or on pc.
The same. I first noticed it on doom eternal, now it briefly stops working when going forward on every game.
The controller for the Series X alone is already so good tbh.
I hav an elite
I’m waiting for the Xbox series x to come back in stock
Waiting for new elite series 3
❤️ for Benny
I mean my elite was awesome until the controller drift but I gotta exchange
Elite Series 2 is hands down the best controller
This controller is so good that my lb doesn’t work left stick doesn’t work dpad doesent work and sticky left trigger so yeah your supposed thousands of testing on this controller must have been fake I haven’t even had this for a year and it’s impossible for me to play
Have you spilled any soda on it? Maybe some crumbs or dust in it? May want to remove the face panel and clean it out as best you can.
I’ve had mine a year and didn’t know all this 😂😂🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
It's going to be interesting to find out how Xbox ends up getting the companies and what companies they get most likely they won't be able to get Sega but that doesn't mean a girl can't dream.
Yep
I hope the next elite series is like the ps5 controller with its hapyic feedback
Best controller ever made, BUT IT NEEDS A LOW LATENCY UPDATE
SMH still today, sure we customers have to undo the mistake of a genius of engineer removing the share button to set up as a shift function to activate it so we can take Screenshots . And later it will get messed up by the app and we have to remapp again and again. I remember in 2000 when Mercedes and Volkswagen forced customers to suck the oil instead of releasing it and they got sued for that and removed that immediately from production. Forcing customers to changing simple habbits is causing problems and not solving them . Me personally i spend money to get rid of a problem not to buy one.
Who else takes his elite controller whenever not gaming @ homee
Too bad you can't macro with the Elite 2 :(
series 3 better have ps5 styled haptic feedback
This should have been series x original controller
We need customers Xbox series x and s like Xbox one x
Huh?
🔥
The dead zone on Xbox controllers are terrible compared to PS4 DualShock. I have to move the Xbox joystick a certain distance then it picks up where as DualShock is INSTANT as soon as the joystick moves a hair. Xbox is not good for games like call of duty
series 2 dont have tall sticks only series 1
Not true
If only this controller didn’t have a tonne of issues
Does it ? I've had mine since launch, no problems... so far.
That New Playstation 5 controller is not better then the Xbox Elite Series two Controller. Xbox Controller's Design and Quality is better then Playstation, Xbox Elite Series two Controller is the best Controller that you can Buy......
Can I use it on PS5 ?
