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.

    I love it, it doesnt seem to have the thumbstick drift like the original elite. Only thing I dont like is the new paddles, they are just a little too small for my liking.

    Once you get an elite controller it is hard to go back to a normal one. Paddles are responsive and convenient. Get your game on with a competitive edge.
