    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.

    This controller is amazeballs!! The programmable 4 back paddles are a game changer. Takes awhile to program for different games and profiles but it’s worth it. Only for experienced gamers!- if you’re a newb concentrate on learning how to play first because this will confuse tf out of you but long time gamers don’t read anymore BUY NOW!!

    This controller serves me well for gaming sessions. I’ve never had any issues with battery life, and the hand feel is second to none. My only complaint is that paddles and other thumb sticks are sold separately, but other than that this controller hits above its price point.

    Good quality feeling controller, awesome that it includes a charging dock, worth the price for a major upgrade to the original controller that comes included with the console. Would be better if they used Hall effect thumb sticks, or at least have them be interchangeable for when they wear out

    Good weight distribution, premium materials and customization accessories included. Would be nice in other colors or being able to swap out the faceplate, etc. Also, when storing the included USB charging cable in the case along with the controller itself it is advised to remove the sticks so that the cable doesn't potentially cause damage.

    Great Controller, Poor Quality Control

    This controller feels great in the hand and has a very nice weight and a overall premium fit and finish. I love the back paddles and the magnetic swap-able stick heads. The best feature of the controller in my opinion is that you can tighten the tension of the thumb sticks which is a game changer for me since I’ve always found the stock Xbox sticks to be too loose. The reason I’m giving this controller 2 stars is because the first controller I got had a loose and jiggly d-pad with both the circle and cross head on the right side of the d-pad. I exchanged the controller and the second one was even more loose then the first one so I decided to return it. I understand there’s always going to be defective products (especially with game controllers) however the fact I got 2 defective controllers back to back is unacceptable in my book for a premium controller that retails for $180.

    The grip makes it easier to hold for me. I have physical challenges that can make holding a controller difficult. The textured grips really help. The mappable back buttons make all the difference. My hands are small, so it can be hard to move all around the controller. The back buttons help me manage longer play-time.

    I had the first series Elite controller and they improved a lot of the flaws of the first one. Feels a lot better in hand and seems of better quality.

    It's a great design, but for the price it should've lasted way longer. With simple use, nothing out of the ordinary, it lasted for about a year. The rubber sides started peeling away and it also began having stick drift. I wouldn't recommend spending this much on a controller that won't give you much in return.

    I do love these controllers even if theyre sold at a lessened price for not having the extra accessories. They work really well with comfort grips and access to many functions despite not being sold with the aforementioned accessories. I do hope this one lasts because elite controllers are infamous for not having a long shelf life.

    Nice solid controller like msot of the elite series has been. Gotta be super careful never to get a drop of water on it or itll be done for. The texture on the grip isnt my favorite in the least. Used this for a couple years, but glad i got the Envsion Pro for my PC.
