Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options offered by this controller. Users frequently highlight the comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality feel during gameplay. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the long-term durability of the buttons and the potential for stick drift. Additionally, while many appreciate the design, some find the premium price point and specific bumper functionality to be areas for improvement.

    Bought this controller on black friday, and also at an even cheaper price for it being an open box item. It was in great shape all included items were present. Im very happy with my purchase and also the process of receiving it.

    I love using the controller. The back paddles are a necessity... They should come standard on all controllers to be honest.... But the the elite isn't built to last ,,this is my 3rd series 2 elite...( Went through 5 of the first gen. ones) The sticks will start to drift and then eventually stop working completely... Definitely buy the extended warranty.

    I bought the original elite controller approximately 3 years ago and the life that the elites who has makes the other one feel cheap and inferior! The new style of the rubber grips is a major improvement. The tension controls on the thumbsticks makes a difference between night and day. Everything feels new fresh and reinvented. Bottom line... This is a controller that you have to have if you are serious about your gaming!
