Customer Ratings & Reviews

I picked up this elite controller after a flood of recommendations from so many sources. I thought it would allow for some macros and other useful things through the use of the paddles but that didn't pan out. I really want to love this thing but it's hard to. The default vibration sounds like it's trying to saw itself in half. But props to them for allowing you to turn that down in the accessories app. You can make some fine tuning to your dead zones and joystick curves there as well. If you drop this controller, you'll get to pretend it's a Mr. Potato head and go hunting for the joysticks and the D pad insert. The levers on the back, as cool as they look, are useless at best and intrusive at their worst. They'd be useful if you could use them to macro together a combination of key presses or if they were a unique button recognized by game developers. But the only control you have over these things is what button to you want it to mimic. Or, realistically, what buttons do you want to accidentally press all the time? The handle grips are great and the triggers are nice as well. I like that the controller came with both a charging dock and a usb-c port. Battery life is good so far. Having the option to pick thumb sticks is a cool feature and one of the few unique aspects I think is actually useful. Being able to pick what Dpad you like is neat, but in a perfect world unless you're playing retro titles or fighting games I think it's of limited use. Unless new functionality gets added for the elite, I personally don't think it's worth it's asking price. I wouldn't buy it again. The elite is no where near 3x as nice as a standard controller but it's certainly 3x the price. If these were half the price, they'd be great.

Premium feel. A bit on the heavier side with the build in battery. Love the removeable paddles and interchangeable thumbsticks.

Has nice weight to it and feels sturdy....battery life is very good. Was a little pricey. Time will tell if it was worth it but I am enjoying it right now.

Sick controller! My kid loves this and I don’t think he’ll ever use a regular one again. Pricey, but awesome!

This controller works great and with the paddles on the back I can take full control of the game !

Love this remote!! The back paddles are a must and no battery pack is so great. The battery life is still good even after having this remote for 2 years.

Love these controllers, I have 4 of them because I like the weight and feel; use one each for ROG Ally X, Gaming PC and XBox Series X with a spare in case one dies and I don’t want to game tethered or wait for recharge.

By far the best xbox controller you can get, easy to use and customize to your liking. The stiffness of the triggers is a game changer in any games, makes you ads and shot so much faster. Once u buy this controller you’ll never buy a regular controller again. Ive bought 4 so far and will continue too.

I've purchased a few used versions in the past but decided to buy one brand new. Love this controller

This is by far the best controller you can buy for Xbox. It is so customizable, comes with a built in battery that last supper long and they even included a charging case for the controller.

Definitely worth the buy if you previously had an elite controller. If your old expensive elite 2 controller broke and need a replacement? Buy the core and take the parts off your old controller and voila, you have a fully functional elite 2 controller with all the bells and whistles at a fraction of the price. Don't forget the protection plan for when you get stick drift.

Very good heavy controller especially for an elite controller

My kids love these controllers, they are the best, the controllers I mean. My kids are ok too. :-)

This thing has some heft to it, but that doesn't stop me from enjoying hours of play. Easily the best Xbox controller available, and that is considering the Scuf Gaming and Battle Beaver options. I love the build quality and the ease of use with the trigger stops and paddles. I can swap in and swap out paddles, the directional pad, thumbsticks, and macro's quickly and easily thanks to the clever design of the whole controller. I also like that I can adjust the thumbstick tension. The carrying case with the ability to use a charging pad from within is a nice touch.

The quality of this controller is like nothing I've owned before in console gaming. Very sturdy, great options and ample customization

Definitely a step above the standard Xbox controller. I use on the PC and connecting is simple and battery life lasts me several play sessions.

Absolutely love this controller. Love the feel and weight that was used in this design.

I absolutely love it, good quality controller and amazing battery life

Did not realize twisting the joystick makes it come off. During street fighter the joystick gets loose and i have to re tighten during a fight.

Bought this as a gift for my partner and he definitely liked. I wasn't to sure at first because it was a bit expensive, but he said that it was definitely worth it.
