    This controller gave an undoubtably edge and was a fantastic upgrade from the old elite controller. The RB and LB on the original popped out on me and a few friends. Haven’t had any concern with that with the new one. Love the rechargeable battery and the charge stand in the case.

    Highly customizable. I researched Razer as a main competitor, and this just seemed better from a wireless / wired option standpoint and a more configurable trigger selection. Xbox accessories is a great companion app.

  • Great, but the new PS5 DualSense is better

    The elite controller is a huge upgrade from the regular xbox controller, but the PS5 Dualsense controller beats this one despite being much cheaper. Microsoft should upgrade this with another one with better haptic feedback.
