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 is my second Elite 2 controller and I can say I won’t go back to a normal controller any time soon. The versatility and customization with the button mapping is amazing with the addition of the back paddles makes playing easier.

    I love this controller, balanced very well and sits very comfortably in hand! The customization factor is great as well, being able to change how far you have to press the trigger in for activation and changing the thumb sticks to be looser or tighter, I find myself using both underneath buttons and the regular top buttons as well depending on the game but I do tend to use both. Overall great controller!

    By far the best controller I’ve ever used. This thing is built like a tank; I was not expecting it to be so heavy, but I love that about it. The build quality of this is incredible. It feels really solid in your hands. All the buttons can be remapped using the settings on your Xbox. The price tag is pretty daunting, but I paid for the 2 year warranty so it’s the only controller I’ll need for the next few years.
