Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve had this controller for a little over a year now and it is the best I’ve owned. Most controllers overtime will develop stick drift, this one has lasted and has a nice feel and function.

If you buy this make sure you get the warranty for it. At best it’ll last you a year . I never dropped it or banged it and they all eventually break but it is the best controller when its working. What ever model you get they’re all the same but the white one is the cheapest and the warranty for some reson is almost half as the elite or color choices . Best way to buy is get the white one with accessories from scuff with the warranty.

Elite is good not great once you get into the assessor option and change the responsive curve it makes it feel like a different type of controller it’s awesome for fpa gaming

Ive been through every controller on the market and all come with fault and failure. So went back to the elite as its robust and doesnt fail. Glad BB had it on shelf when i needed it

The Xbox Elite Controller is hands down the best controller I’ve ever used. From the moment you pick it up, the build quality stands out—solid, premium, and made to last. The customizable paddles, adjustable tension thumbsticks, and trigger locks give you a real competitive edge, especially in fast-paced shooters or precision-heavy games. What really sets this controller apart is the level of personalization. With the Xbox Accessories app, you can remap buttons, tweak sensitivity curves, and save multiple profiles. Switching between them on the fly is super smooth and incredibly useful. Battery life is excellent, the rubberized grips feel perfect in your hands, and the included carrying case and accessories add great value. If you’re serious about your gaming or just want the best possible experience, the Elite Controller is worth every penny. Highly recommended.

I was really skeptical about purchasing an Xbox controller that retails for over twice the price of the standard one that comes with the one in the box, but I’m glad I did. Some reviews point out that stick drift is an issue with these, and luckily for me that issue hasn’t arisen for me yet (knock on wood). Once you get used to the feel of the Elite Series, you will fall in love. The texturized rubber handles help ensure you never lose your grip mid-session. Adjusting the resistance of the thumbsticks couldn’t be easier, same goes with the triggers. I love being able to choose the color of the Xbox logo that sits atop the controller, as simple as it may be. Three different presets lets you swap between different layouts and color combinations on the fly. My only gripe with this is of course the lack of hall-effect joysticks, and the D-pad. If you’re like me and are tough on your controllers by forcefully mashing buttons during intense situations, you may find that this controller is a deal breaker. The D-pad will come off way too easily. I debated purchasing the more expensive version of the Elite Series 2, but I’m glad I cheaped out. If I ever find that I do need the extra accessories, they’re just a $50 purchase away. Not to mention the nice colors you can choose from when it comes to the Core iteration. Give it a shot, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

No real flaw to point out to be honest! Too many features to count! I could go into all the perks but I don’t want to write that long lol… I’ll mention my favorite feature which is the fact you can adjust the analog from being tight too loose amazing feature! The rest you can see just by clicking on the controller and viewing!

I like how customizable this controller is. All though it’s a lot cheaper than the regular elite controller and doesn’t come with paddles you can buy a set and still spend less money than buying the elite. Amazing controller I am not disappointed.

The grip is good and you can customize the controller also. Overall a solid and reliable controller. Lastly the charging station was a well added item.

So glad I caught the sale on this! I can't believe how much you can customize your button layout with this controller! You can set a "shift" button that allows you double-up the function of other buttons. You can also set buttons to perform an action, such as taking a picture, etc. There are many. You can set up three different profiles and also set the color of your "Xbox" (Home) button in each, which I think is pretty cool. I obviously added a custom faceplate to mine, which is a great option for adding your own style to it. When doing so, they give you a piece that transfers the light source out to the three profile lights and, something I picked up from a YouTube video, you can use a Sharpie and color the ends of the pieces to make them colored lights as well. [Don't know why my green marker looks more aqua/blue-green in the pic or so bright, it really made them darker, which I like, a lot, and they look green to me also. Pictures often change things slightly.] This is a pricey controller but, they all are. Going with this one, for a few more dollars you get so much more than the difference in price might suggest, to my thinking anyway. I couldn't be happier with my decision to make this purchase!

I purchased an open box controller that is listed in excellent condition on the website, and also on the label which is on the box. Best Buy‘s website, it states, item sold in excellent condition. Include all accessories. Well the controller did not include all accessories. I opened the box and I was greeted with the controller, however, no USB cable. Now don’t get me wrong. I know this might be a little nitpick, but if you’re going to list something as including all accessories, please include all accessories. Trust me I have more than enough USB cables lying around the house, so this is no major concern of mine. My concern for this purchase starts with the label that is on the box. Yes the label states excellent condition. There are however, three labels in total on top of the next. The original label states the controller is in satisfactory condition. The second label the controller is in good condition. And of course the final label states excellent condition. Well my issue is this if you’re going to change out the label take off the old one. Because now you’re gonna have a bunch of Customer scratching her head as to what were you guys actually hiding. The price difference between the three different condition levels is very negligible, I think maybe four dollars at the time of writing this review. I will say this the controller is in very good to excellent condition. Yes I saved roughly 70 bucks by buying it open box, and for that, this purchase receives four out of five stars.

Excellent build quality and responsiveness. The controller looks and feels very cool, and it performs flawlessly for competitive gaming. A bit expensive, especially once you add accessories, but overall very solid.

I love this controller. It has more weight than the regular Xbox controller. It has nice rubberized group areas which add to comfort and control. The sticks on the controller have customizable tension which really lets you get dialed in when playing FPS games. It also has 3 programmable layouts. The price of the controller seems high at first glance but after using it for a good bit of time you'll see and feel that it is totally worth the price. If you're serious about gaming, buy it.

Excellent controller and a great price!! My other elite controller somewhat disintegrated and this was the replacement. Awesome colorway and I still had my case and extras from the previous controller so this was perfect and I swapped some pieces with my black one!!

I liked the over all feel of the controller. It has good weight and quality to the touch feel. I also like how it is conpatable with paddles for customizable gaming.

Best Xbox controller ever its chargeable no more need for batteries or garbage battery packs it also allows you the ability to remap all of the buttons and add 4 paddles to the back of controller that you can make any button combination you want also can get interchangeable sticks and d-pad no tools needed to swap magnetically held in place take your gaming to the next level

I had initially purchased the blue version of this controller and liked it so much that I decided to get the red version because I had spare cash and liked the red color. These are now the primary controllers I use and I only use the regular series x controllers when I have guests over or I want to let these controllers recharge. The paddles make playing many games a lot easier, especially if you play a few competitive multiplayer games. I also like the internal battery and the face that you can also charge the controller and continue to play if you want to. The hair lock triggers also feel nice for people who don't want to use as much force when pulling them, and the settings will mostly be uses for online shooters. These controllers are best for gamers who play a lot of competitive multiplayer games, need a lot of customization in their controller, or people who want a controller that has a long lasting battery life and does not need to be recharged that often. For everyone else, the standard Series X controllers will do just fine.

I've used a few of those and there are always problems, but thus far after about a month, this one seems to be having no issues with the bumpers or stick drift

The buttons feel good, the joystick feels good, must have for fps games.

Works and feels great. Caved after my 8BitDo failed after a month and I couldnt be happier
