Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    The right bumper has failed, the rubber grip is peeling away. Quality is bad but while it worked, the battery life is great! Having buttons mapped to the underside helps in the heat of the moment

    Good controller but ended up returning it after about 3 weeks of use. Has a few issues and didn’t fully use all the extra buttons and paddles for the price paid. Nice weight and feel but I’m happy with my series controllers.

    Great overall construction of controller, feels heavy and durable. Paddles are a definite game changer over stock controllers. No double AA, comes with internal rechargeable.

    This is hands down the best PC controller I've personally used. If you have the money to invest, it is certainly worth the purchase.

    This is only worth the cost if you have a current broken elite controller or you want to find after market sticks and paddles.

    I do not know how to use all of the back buttons on the controller. It comes with one little magnetic piece to connect it but that's it. Other than that it is definitely a solid controller

    Its a very good controller. While it is on the more expensive side of things you get what you pay for and what you are paying for is a durable, easy to use, great feeling controller

    I owned the Series 1 Gears of War 4 edition and I loved it (until the grips came off). With the Age of Quarantine, I have been gaming a lot more and really missed my Elite. So when i had a chance to buy this, I could not press "Add to Cart" any quicker!!! Yes...it is expensive, but it is worth it.

    Same ol trashy junk controllers Microsoft puts on

    Overall the controller works good but within three months of my purchase the RB button is already starting to stick and not work, it works sometimes but only when I press it hard, if I lightly press the RB button it does not work, so definitely make sure you purchase the warranty on this controller. It's $45 for 2 years and it's worth it because Microsoft does put out junk controllers and this is probably the best of the junk controllers they have out of their junky controllers.....that's why Microsoft is in a class action lawsuit right now for putting out trash controllers I literally have nine controllers on my shelf that do not work, I have three kids and I'm on my 10th controller.

    Good controller, paddles can be swapped out by the scuff ones and are pretty useful. For the price compared to others not a bad buy.
