Customer Ratings & Reviews

The XL is so great for my live streaming along with its usefulness in my creative applications. Any macro/hotkey can pretty much be programmed to do what you want. If I had to do it over, I would have bought the XL and not the regular Stream Deck. Now I have both but it makes it easier to shift to another camera while still having control over my videos.

While it is confusing to see a 5 star rating with a 3 star or lower title there is a good reason for it. The Stream Deck XL is great and i highly recommend it, it SHOULD NOT be your first Elgato Device. Elgato came out with a new Stream Deck called the Stream Deck + and this is way more beneficial than both the Stream Deck and Stream Deck XL. The dials on the Stream Deck + allow for more actions than ever and it allows you to use both the Stream Deck software and their Wave Link software. Wave link allow you to sort all the audio in your PC to controllable sub mixes to be easier for both Streaming and Home/Personal use. If you already have a Stream Deck + then get this! The uses it gives you are limitless and almost every update has something new that's worth fiddling with.

I upgraded from the MK.2 to this beast and it was a lifesaver. I'm constantly on my computer doing gaming, photo editing, drawing and everything in between. I like having more buttons than just 15 and it looks amazing on my desk.

I am very pleased with the compatibility of this product. It does everything I wanted it to and I am not using it for streaming so it does have a lot of versatility if someone wants to use it for quicker shortcuts or other uses that aren't for streaming. Only thing that took a while was to get everything i wanted set up. Other than that it was a great investment for me.

Easy to order, got here quickly, and product exceeds expectations. Thanks much BestBuy and Elagato!

After using the six button stream deck for almost two years now on Twitch, I decided it was time for an upgrade and man am I happy I did. If you're tired of going through folders to get to your next scene then I highly recommend the Stream Deck XL. Sure you could go with the fifteen button one, but you know what they say. Go big or go home!

It does what it’s supposed to do. I just haven’t spent enough time with it to know if I really need it. It’s definitely handy but it seems more like a gadget than a necessity. If you absolutely hate having to click a mouse to make selections than this is 100% for you, but if you don’t mind mouse clicking you may want to saveYour money. One things for sure, it wasn’t cheep.

Definitely overpriced just getting that out. But it is a cool item to add to your setup with many features. Definitely not necessary to buy if you don’t have other compatible technology that allows you to control for instance lighting. If you’re a streamer I do recommend you buy one.

I like this Elgato Stream Deck XL, it is large but very comfortable. I can add all my short cuts in one place for easy access. With one press of a button I can adjust audio levels and mute mics. I can adjust my Elgato Key Lights and control OBS for easy streaming. This is a must have device that gives you supreme creativity control.

Great item for making shortcuts and helping out with everything computing. Software is very user friendly. Total customization of all buttons in what images are on them to what they do.

This is a GREAT product!! Upgraded from the 15 key model so I could do more in a faster connecting environment while doing video conferring.. This device works with OBS and ZOOM quit well... Recommend to anyone looking for an easier & quicker to make presentations run smoother within their video conferencing format.

Bought to use as a sim racing button box and is way better than the actual button box. Highly recommended if you are in the market for a sim racing button box.

This is advertised as being a great tool for streamers and I am sure that's true, but it's also a great tool for anybody who uses complex software with a lot of keyboard shortcuts. I use this for a few 3D applications and being able to create a subfolder where I can store a bunch of quick access shortcuts is fantastic.

I usually use the stream deck for my flight simulation and it of course took my sim experience to next level

I'm not a streamer but I've never loved a device so much. I use it for shortcuts along with BetterTouchTool ( for Mac ) to save loads of time in launching apps or getting stuff done within them. No need to remember a bunch of shortcuts anymore. It makes my computer feel a 100 times snappier. I do dislike the way the buttons feel. They're way too soft and go way too deep. I wish they were closer to the feel of my mechanical keyboard.

The Streamdeck XL was originally built as a switchboard for people controlling live streams. But it al functions as a really great addition for anyone that keeps a lot of multiple apps open on their computer while working. It can help you streamline switching or create macros to automate certain tasks at the touch of a button. You can create individual profile pages that launch when you use a certain application and have a default profile for other situations. This does require configuration so expect to spend a fair amount of time setting up your profile, figuring out how to create macros, getting icons (elegato provides a web based icon creator), etc. Thankfully basic configuration is fairly easy and can get more complex if you add third party software like Keyboard Maestro on MacOS. Then you can trigger more powerful macros from other programs. But remember this isn't plug and play. You have to build the profiles yourself. There are smaller versions which have the same functionality just less buttons. Highly recommended.

Adds quick macro functions for controlling streaming system for our church's live stream. Makes the process simple for fast training and low technical skill help. Great for gamers and computer users that have the need for lots of macros.

i didnt think i would need the extra keys but they came in handy, highly recommend even if your not streaming, you can create a lot of hotkeys for regular work as well.

Perfect condition, easy to set up, and makes my day so much easier. I use this for work functions and shortcuts as well as for my side hustle, video editing and streaming. Cant recommend enough!

Using this to live stream with two PTZ cameras and vMix software. Really make my life easier. Ability to color and label the buttons (and have it change button color based on camera status) is really a lifesaver. I would recommend using Bitfocus' Companion software to make this even more useful.
