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.

    If you are a gamer, I recommend this. The paddles make fighting games easier and the charge lasts forever.

    Great controller. I've played with all consoles, and xbox is my favorite, and i had all the extra back buttons from a friend, so it was nice to pay the cheaper price

    I thought it came with the pieces and stuff but it didn’t. That’s my fault for not reading it correctly lol. Good product overall tho. I’m not a big time gamer and I’m glad this one is fairly simple to use. It definitely has helped me improve my firing rate.

    I did not know that you can charge the controller while it is in the case. Nice feature. Only feature it doesn't have that I would like is an auto rapid press feature.

    This should have been a day 1 purchase, even before any games had been installed on the Xbox series x. It feels infinitely better than the lame controller that comes packaged with the console.

    I like how heavy it feels, the grips are nice but quickly start losing their friction abilities after a few uses. The only other problem in have is the size of tge controller. It might just be me but it just needs to be bigger i feel like.

    We bought this for our son's 12th birthday and he was so very excited about it. Apparently he had been wanting it because his friend has one and we didn't even know it. The versatility is great and we love that it charges in the case. He is obsessed with Fortnite so he gets a lot of use out of it. Great controller and highly recommend for the advanced gamers. My only complaint is how much it costs. As a mom and not a gamer I don't understand why it's so expensive...

    Improvement, but still needs tweaks

    The Series 2 Elite is a much needed improvement over its predecessor, but still not perfect. The thumbsticks are still too easy to accidentally knock off, and I personally think the rounded ones should be smooth. Some pros would be the built in battery life is impressive, and it has 3 customizable control mapping options. The extra paddle buttons don't get knocked off as easily as the series 1 controller.

    I really enjoy video games so having this is more like a “collectors” item. I love that the controller is customizable. However, it’s not a must have. If you play COD/HALO/PUBG etc it could be useful. Parents, if you don’t have the money to spend on this, try and reason with your child before purchasing.
