Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the controller's exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. Users also frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality tactile feel. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the durability of the buttons and bumpers, as well as the early onset of stick drift. Despite these technical frustrations and the premium price point, many still consider it a top-tier gaming accessory.

    So far so good. It definitely helps with the ability to configure buttons to each game. It’s a little pricy, but worth it if your looking for next level controls.

    Great controller to use, when it works. I am about to send in my third controller back for warranty repairs in 5 months. Issues include stick drift, buttons sticking, and double pressing buttons with only a single input.

    The controller works fairly well with one issue.. the left bumper was broken upon delivery. It can still work but requires a firmer press than it should. It was not a brand new controller so I guess that's fine but wish it had a warranty.

    “B” button broke in 10 days - disappointing

    Pros: battery built in. upgrade to rubber design to prevent peeling (we will see), hair trigger manual instead of on console settings, all black (preference), slightly longer cord, new cord connection it’s slightly bigger than previous model, Cons: button haptics are not as crisp, button stuck within 10 days, internal battery makes it heavier as it’s not removable, all black with no accents (green & silver) which was on previous model (personal preference), does not come with two long stick options just one, doesn’t last long, 10 days old and it broke, have to use my original elite from years ago which feels so much better, lighter and responsive in hand. Unfortunately they totally stopped making the elite a couple months back. Will be getting a replacement soon and will report back periodically with updates. Hopefully with an upgrade to the star count.
