    Elite controller is the best there is. Make sure to get the warranty if a heavy handed or avid gamer. Will drift after a year, when original manufacturer warranty expires. Buttons might break. It's a controller, a $200 one. Get a warranty.

    Absolutely FANTASTIC. I had a scuf controller and it is literally a $300 paperweight.I wish I would have gotten this sooner. There are so many things you can do with this. I love it. I highly recommend you get the extended warranty though throw geek squad because I have read some reviews from some full-time high end streamers who have had issues. However, I am very please. I've streamed over maybe 50 hours and the battery is STILL full. I'm blown away. Stay away from Scuf...this is your controller. I promise.

    I had a minor issue with the left trigger after about six months of use but shoving a cotton swab where it seemingly didnt belong seems to have resolved the issue! This controller has seriously improved my ability to get killed in Call of Duty by kids with significantly more free time than me! In all seriousness though, this controller has ruined other great controllers for me. I love the PS5 controller but can’t play Warzone on it because I’ve gotten so used to the back paddles on this one, without them I feel naked in the battlefield. And do you know what it’s like to be naked in a battlefield? Everyone can see your grenades, it’s not a good feeling.

    I ordered two elite Xbox controllers, selected the date for delivery, and they were there when promised. Price was very competitive and I searched many sites. Pleased overall.

    I hate giving this a 3 but its only because i had 2 of these in 1 year. I bought one the stick locked up , easily exchanged it because of warranty and the new one locked up in less then a week. Now the plus is its easy to set up and it has multiple sticks that work well with my thumbs. But for being the Xbox brand, im disappointed

    Great experience but doesn't last

    The greatest controller i've ever used, but it's not very durable. I've replaced it twice now, first because the right bumper failed, then because the grip started to become unglued after many hours of use and changed the shape of the controller. If you're going to buy this get the protection and replace it when, not if, it fails.

    Nice weight, very sturdy and comfortable to use. The only bad side is that these controllers unfortunately do not last! They are great controllers, but must be replaced about every year or so... I've decided it's worth to buy & replace because I actually really like this controller over any other basic wireless ones on the market.

    Love the customization options and this controller will elevate your game to keep your thumbs on the sticks. The problem is stick dift will hit within a year and continue to get worse. The bumpers will also mess up and become unresponsive. This happen on my original elite and i went back with a core for cheaper and it was great Nov 2023 until Dec 2025.

    Definitely a great controller. Nice weight and the buttons feels more premium than the non elites. Only downside is the price. This is worth the investment if you game a lot on pc or Xbox. The buttons on the back are programmable but only with the inputs that are already on the controller. I could not find a way to map it with a macro or a specific key.

    Good quality. Feels nice in your hands. I like being able to adjust the joystick sensitivity. My one complaint is it did not come with the back paddles and adjustable joysticks, but third party options were relatively cheap, but with the high cost of the controller I feel like it should come with.

    Best Xbox Controller There Is

    I have nothing bad to say about this controller. I realize some people in the past have had issues with their controllers breaking down. I have not been one of these people. I owned the Series 1 and loved it. Not with the Series 2 it has only gotten better. I think it's leap to say that it is drastically better, but it's defiantly better. I think the grips are nicer than the Series 1. The paddles feel tighter, which I like. And having the ability to adjust the thumb sticks is very nice. This is a solid, well built controller. But I will also say that if you hare happy with your original controller, you do not have to spend the extra money on one of these. This controller is a "want", not a "need".
