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.

    This controller is everything you want in 2020. The only thing I will say is get the insurance. I'm very gentle with all my devices (especially controllers- considering how fragile they tend to be). Alot of my friends have been experiencing knob drifting, and other little things malfunctioning.... Long story short, excellent controller, but that insurance will SAVE YOUR POCKETS in the long run. *My left stick is starting to feel a little lose after about a month or so of having it.

    Sucks that Microsoft still makes you purchase battery paks for controllers. This is where they fall short in the console wars. However, this was an impulse buy, dang it microsoft. But it is a very good controller. It feels premium and it comes with a charge base. All controllers should be double a battery free at this point. But still, all in all, its worth it.

    Its a pretty good controller, i like how you can adjust the tension to the sticks and how far you want the lt and rt to go down, controller is pretty responsive and has nice qualities, it has a good gripping material and its just pretty good in general, would recommend.

    Worth it in my experience

    While there may be some questions about the price of this item, there are a few things that warrant consideration. One of the main reasons I chose this item (along with the obvious controller itself) is because I wanted a case for my controller as well. The controller itself is an improvement over the regular Xbox model, with the addition of the back paddles, but also has a built in rechargeable battery and 2 additional pairs of thumbstick options to swap out. Add all those accessories up and the price may still be a bit on the high side, but I find it worth it. Bottom line, it won't make you a better gamer, but it DID improve MY game with the longer right thumb stick and easier back paddles for some games, and I like that I can leave this in the case and plug the charging cable directly in without unzipping it. I am more than happy with this.

    Perfect controller. This is my second elite controller. I still have the first, I just wanted a spare. Feels solid. The only difference is that this does not come with the carrying case or the back paddles. I got back paddles elsewhere for $15.

    Excellent controller compared to the one that comes with the XBOX. I’m not a hardcore gamer and probably won’t use it to its full capabilities, but the way it feels in your hand due to the weight and the smoothness of the controls; makes it a great purchase.

    If your looking to expand what you can do in games I say go for it. I bought just for Apex & it gets the job done plus more. Back triggers help keep me in game without extra finger movment. No stick drift. Fist perfectly in my hand. It's just a step up from the normal controller.

    Got this to upgrade from my original Xbox One S controller. It has a very solid feel and switching between the joystick lengths is incredibly simple. The back bumpers are great for FPS games and button mapping is simple.
