Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very sturdy. Doesn’t feel cheap. Nice weight, that makes you feel like you’re really in the game. Built in battery is very convenient and long lasting. Customizing and tweaking to your preferences makes it the best available controller out there.

This was my first controllee with paddles. There is some stick drift but nothing crazy. I do like how the parts are easy to change and software is easy to customize button

Phenomenal for gaming, better than a Dualsense that’s got sure

When new, the controller works fantastically. Key phrase is WHEN NEW. This is the 3rd elite controller that I am now going to have to replace because of stick drift, sticky buttons, and the headphone jack not working. Each controller started showing these issues just a few months in. You're probably thinking "Okay no problem, I'll just pay for the Best Buy 2 year warranty, then I can get a new controller whenever I want". HAHA good luck EVER finding them in stock. THEY WON'T EVEN ORDER THEM FROM MICROSOFT FOR YOU. My controller has been a piece of garbage for a couple of months now, but can't get it replaced thanks to Best Buy's constant lack of inventory on them. I have the listing bookmarked and check daily to see if they have any in stock, and they never do. Overall I do NOT recommend this controller for any gamer. Only reason I gave two stars is the controller is very nice when its brand new out of the box. However, you will regret it when you pay this much money and are without a useable controller for months at a time, after only using the thing for a couple of months.

Amazing product I’ve been using this Xbox controller since 2020 and I’ll never use another controller

This is easily my favorite controller to use, easily configurable, durable, and overall just premium. Customer service was also great as I couldnt find the color I wanted and a service tech helped me out.

Not great quality. Buttons often stick and has bad stick drift. Returned two and am on my third. I personally do not like how heavy and cumbersome it is. However, the paddles are nice and the Xbox logo lights up.

A bit on the pricey side when it comes to controllers but has a premium feel and the extra back bumpers that can be remapped.

the best controller and you can feel it. from the weight, to the upgraded features, like rechargeable, customizable, and durable!

Love how you can Customize your buttons to the back paddles easily through the app and plenty of joysticks and able to tighten the joysticks and accessories to find the one you like. Did get stick drift relatively fast but I do use it a lot.

Definitely not the perfected version, but the elite offers improved comfort, functionality, and durability that comp and pro players need.

Good controller so far, love the feel and the weight.

For an elite controller, I have to say it was not sturdy like the previous ones I have purchased. This one felt a bit off due to the thumb knobs feeling rebuilt rather than brand new, which is what I paid for. I previously purchased two black edition elite controllers, and they were built with much stiffer controls and no free traveling effect on the thumbstick, which is why I feel this way. Maybe I just got a bad one. could also be why this red one is less expensive than the all-black one.

Great controller! Feels solid does everything it should. Best Buy made it easy to purchase also

I debated on this for years and i would always say to myself i don't want to spend that much on a controller. The sticks started falling apart on my last one and i asked a friend that raved about the elite if it was worth it. He said you won't have to buy another controller for life. I broke down and got it and before unboxing it i was impressed with the package. This thing feels great. Very impressed and pleased with purchase. I regret not getting it sooner.

Excellent feel and quality. Will buy again! This meets my needs for a much better price than the Elite 2.

This is is my 2nd elite purchase. As with all controllers there will be wear and stick drift, but I can’t think about playing with something other than an elite.

it’s okay but gamesir is better. already had a problem with elite within first month

Love this controller. Feels great. Looks great. Customizable. Wish it came with at least 2 paddles. All in all great controller.

I literally have to change them every year or so because the buttons keep getting stuck.
