Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great controller but had to replace it when it got the dreaded stick drift. Get the extended warranty. You can thank me later.

Well, let me just say that I hesitated for years on getting this controller because of the cost and also because I'm not very big on many controller based games on PC... However, recently I purchased Star Wars Squadrons on PC and let me tell you that this controller is a GAME CHANGER for that game and I'm sure I will find many more games that I will benefit greatly in... For starters, the build quality is fantastic, this feels like a premium controller, it makes my Xbox One controller feel like a cheap toy in comparison. The customization is great, I like playing with the Xbox 360 tension on the sticks, and it's great to have 3 different options to choose from. The BIGGEST selling point for me and many of you of course is the BACK BUTTONS, and let me tell you that these buttons are giving me a HUGE ADVANTAGE in Star Wars Squadrons. Being able to keep both my thumbs on both the thumb sticks at ALL TIMES while toggling my power systems as desired(using the back buttons) allows me to continue to track targets and/or escape enemies without losing control of my ship. It's just a huge advantage being able to multitask without having to reach over the controller to press other buttons. MY KDR nearly doubled overnight after I got used to the controller and now I regret going so long with this controller. Another thing is I think Microsoft totally nailed the configuration of the back buttons, they're not too big or not too small, just perfect. I even spent the extra money on the GeekSquad Protection to cover my controller for a few extra years. If you feel you will benefit from the back buttons in whatever it is you're currently playing, stop reading this review and purchase now or when you see a sale on this thing.

I buy is to play Warzone good controller is so fire

This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!

I think this still the top controller out there. For real.

Pricey but high quality and good feel. I use it with a PC via Bluetooth, Definitely an upgrade over my 360 controllers. Unfortunately the customization of the paddles on the back isn't working after I switch from USB cable to Bluetooth, so taking off a star for that. It essentially makes the paddles useless for me. So minus one star for that. Also I'd hear there was a drift issue with these so I asked if I could buy a service plan, but the clerk told me I had to pay for a Best Buy membership to buy a plan. So no plan, hopefully I can use the warranty if there is an issue. Odd when people won't take your money. I won't deduct a star for that since it doesn't reflect on the product, more of an issue with Best Buy.

I have big hands , so bigger controllers are a must. And always buy the geek squad protection with this controller . ALWAYS!!!!

Excellent. I love this controller. I highly recommend it.

Very sturdy and well made. Its a heavy controller that feels good in your hands. Also provides lots of button customizations. Would recommend

Its a hit or miss with these controllers but luckily I havent had any problems with the infamous bunper defect. So far my experience has been great.

Love this controller, never an issue connecting to my PC. Makes gaming so much simpler

Love the Elite Series II, went away from a Scuf Instinct Pro, will never go back. My favorite controller. Really love the color. Red is my fav color.

Very good, should come with back pattles so you dont have to buy a 50 dollar case to get them.

It is a nice controller it would be a great controller if they could fix all the issues with the drift and the dead zones and also the price is kind of high for what it is I think it should be only about $80 I don't think it's worth the almost $200 it would be a $200 controller if it used Titanium or something but I'm sure the cost of the material is not warranted $200 but it is a nice controller over the stock ones. I like the stock ones too of course it doesn't have all the other features that the this one has but I can live with the stock one because it's only $49 on sale and this is $200 so I can buy four regular controllers for the price of one of these but it's up to you preference and your money situation

The controller works well and it was well worth the money

It's a recent generation xbox controller, so it can easily connect to your windows pc without the need of a dongle. The back buttons... on the back... are a life-changer. I would personally have a hard time going back to a controller without back buttons. You can customize the back buttons -and I think the general buttons too- however you want. You can have up to 4 back buttons in total and they are all removable. So if you are unsure about using them all at once, you can simply ease into it. The price is expensive, so make sure to properly think if you want such a product, but it is cheaper than getting the xbox core controller and the separate accessories. Great to play on your xbox or if you like to use controllers for your pc, it is easy to do so.

Always in stock. Need another and the old one stills work.

The built-in battery pack and grips are great. Charge lasts 1-2days with 5 hour play. The sensitivity slide bars below don’t seem to make a big difference. I would have liked the paddle controls as an option.

It’s a good controller. Better for gaming if you are starting to get serious.

I love this controller and I've been through a couple. For me it's less about the panels than the sheer weight of it which seems right in my hands for all the gaming I do. Elite controllers have earned a reputation for falling apart over time, especially having sticky buttons, rubber grips that unglue, etc. Best buy has made this so easy with their two year protection which I definitely bought this time on both the controllers I bought. And I'm glad I did because about 15 months in I'm about to bring mine back to the store. Because there's nothing worse than having sticky buttons on a dragon's about to decimate you.
