The Xbox Elite Series 2 is among the best Xbox controllers on the market, and right now it’s discounted to one of its lowest prices of the year. Head over to Amazon or Walmart and you can snag the pro-style gamepad for just $140 (was $180). That’s close to its all-time low price of $138, which it hit last summer. Price cuts have been less than impressive since then, making this a good time to upgrade.

Designed with four removable back paddles, swappable thumbsticks and D-pad, trigger locks for faster actuation, and up to 40 hours of battery life, it’s a well-rounded controller. The back paddles are a notable highlight, as they’re located in ergonomic positions that don’t require you to contort your fingers in awkward ways to reach them.
Further customization options are available in the Xbox Accessories App, which lets you remap buttons, create unique profiles, or program “shift” keys for secondary inputs on the gamepad. As a bonus, your purchase comes with a carrying case to protect your controller while traveling.
This price cut is currently available at both Amazon and Walmart, so be sure to swing by the other retailer if your preferred store runs out of inventory.
