Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the Elite because I was sick of bumpers/sticks etc. breaking on my standard Xbox controller. And for a while, these controllers performed well. They feel great, the weight is good, and the accessories/customization options are a plus. But the bumpers still don't last. Look, I'm not throwing my controller around, dropping it, or button mashing. But somehow, miraculously, Microsoft made the bumpers on the Elite controller just as poorly as the original controllers; they get mushy/break with regular, long-term use. Overall, it's a good controller. Just pay up and get the Best Buy warranty, because you'll probably need it.

If you need a top of the like controller this MIGHT be it. Its good sturdy, long battery, and feels good but it can tend to get stick drift not in the normal way but that the sticks work so well that the slightest touch and youll keep drifting when having your finger rest on it

Had to update out of the box otherwise pretty good

Wonderful controller. Love it. Best thing ever. Wow.

Excellent quality. Would recommend this to xbox gamers.

Great feel in hand, responds well, needs to have external battery

- Great customization for a personalized easier experience - Very durable inputs but edges of rubber tend to unglue. - Thumb stick grooves go away slowly - Glues for grips way better the Elite 1 (I Play a lot)

Very comfortable and very nice design. Only down side is that it doesn’t come with the paddles

Controller came with a variety of custom tools to change the sensitivity of buttons and analog sticks. There is a learning curve so you might want to try using the controller in different forms before setting into one kind of setting. Beware bc this product does tend to lemon out the most even though its a premium controller.

Great controller. Easy to use and customize your favorite additions

Initially I was pained at the thought of buying a controller for this price. However, once I opened the box it became apparent to me just why the price was high; this controller is bulletproof. Amazing quality of materials, very very comfortable, incredibly customizable. This controller will last you years and years easily. Only downside is that it is not currently compatible with iPad. I stream my PC to my iPad for gaming, and was disappointed as a result. Amazing controller though!

Good controller i got it for my brother for Christmas and he loves it

Amazing!!!!!! Beat controller out there without a doubt

I've been skeptical over the years in paying the hefty price for an elite controller, but finally jumped the gun when they announced the series 2... and I'm glad i did. This controller has great ergonomics and grip texture, along with a plethora of features and settings, including hair trigger settings, multiple sticks, mapping, 4 quadrant vibrating settings, e.t.c. well worth it if you are a competitive gamer. No problems with drifting so far. Love that you can adjust the tension of the sticks as well.. overall, a great product from Microsoft!

This controller is legit, i mean what else can i say besides LEGIT

Great choice of you want extra paddles for playing games, would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for stick drift within a few months depending on what you play and how often I'm sure. Fix that and it would be 5 stars for sure!

Bought this as a gift for my husband and he loves it. So many different options to customize so it might take some time to figure out your ideal set up but it’s worth it !

I really enjoyed this nice entry into the elite controller line up.

Works great, but have a little trouble with it coasting to the left. Other then that great.

Awesome Controller! Color Pop and Ergonomic Flourish!
