About Xbox Elite Series 2

The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 is the definitive choice for competitive gamers and enthusiasts who demand absolute precision and deep customization. Engineered to meet the needs of professional players, this controller moves beyond the standard console experience, offering a heavy-duty, premium feel and a suite of mechanical adjustments that can be tailored to any playstyle.

The hallmark of the Series 2 is its modularity. It features adjustable-tension thumbsticks, allowing you to use a specialized tool to choose between three resistance settings. This is paired with shorter hair trigger locks, which reduce the travel distance of the triggers for faster firing in shooters.

The controller comes with a set of interchangeable components, including:

Thumbsticks: Various shapes (standard, tall, and dome).

D-pads: Both a faceted "dish" and a traditional cross.

Paddles: Four removable stainless-steel paddles on the back that can be mapped to any button, allowing you to keep your thumbs on the sticks at all times.

Unlike the standard plastic models, the Elite Series 2 features a wrap-around rubberized grip that extends to the front of the controller, ensuring it stays secure during intense sessions. Internally, the Xbox Accessories app allows for near-infinite customization, including button remapping, dead zone adjustments, and the ability to save up to three custom profiles (plus a default) that you can switch between on the fly using a dedicated profile button.

Breaking away from AA batteries, the Series 2 features an integrated rechargeable battery providing up to 40 hours of life per charge. It includes a sleek USB-C charging dock that can sit inside the included hardshell carrying case, allowing you to charge the controller while it's protected. With Xbox Wireless, Bluetooth, and USB-C connectivity, it is fully compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PCs, and mobile devices, making it the most versatile and powerful tool in the Xbox ecosystem.
