Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

Great feel, but defective product
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, this controller feels great. The D-pad, adjustable sticks and triggers and rear triggers all give it a very personalized feel. But after reading all the reviews on how good the 'mechanical' XYAB buttons feel, imagine my surprise when they feel super generic and they even get stuck. I haven't spilled or had anything on my hands...fresh out of the box a $200 controller has buttons that stick... If this is just an anomaly and I get a replacement that doesn't do this I would gladly give this 5 stars, but as it is I can't tell you how many times I have died due to this issue.

Another controller turned into a paperweight.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased Nov 22, now it's Aug 18th at the time of writing this. Less than a year of ownership the RB button is now failing, it doesn't register a button press about 70-80% of the time I press the button. Previous Elite Series 2 controllers had these issues, however, I gave the benefit of the doubt when buying the "core series" hoping that they'd fixed this KNOWN issue, they didn't. Sadly, now this is my second almost paperweight Elite Series 2 controller with a broken/dying RB button. For the price of these controllers you'd think they have a highly build quality, they don't sadly. For those seeking a controller but play games that heavily use the shoulder buttons (RB/LB) don't waste your money on the Elite series, just buy the normal controllers. Now I resort to using one of the backpaddles to function as my broken RB button.

Controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.my grandson is happy with purchase Everything he had hoped for
I would recommend this to a friend Over all pretty great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a really good controller. The only downside is it is USB rechargeable instead of batteries (my preference). I also does not have a screen shot button
I would recommend this to a friendNot quite the best
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These controllers are cool in theory but in performance I think this will be the last one i buy. I have had 3 of these in 4 years, each on having a different issue. The paddles work great on each one for 2-3 months. One of them had a headset jack issue where everytime someone talked to me, they heard themself echo in my headset, if i changed controllers the echo would stop. And my very first one of these the lb bumper wore out after 2-3 months.
