Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options, along with its comfortable feel and good weight. However, a significant concern among users is the prevalence of stick drift and issues with button quality, particularly with the bumpers and A button. The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

    Love this controller! I like the weight, it feels solid. I did have an issue with stick drift in the left stick after about a week, but BB sent me a new one overnight since they didn’t have in stock

    Pros -The controller feels great and has a good weight to it -It makes a good 200 dollar paper weight when it inevitably breaks. Cons -Stick drift in first month and a half -Bumper buttons stopped working properly within first month -Rubber pieces that let you adjust trigger pull fell off within days after never even using them -Probably wouldn’t make as good of a paper weight because it would some how find a way to drift off the table or fall into pieces. All in all the features it did have were great and after the first one I bought I did buy a second and now have 1 week on it with no issues but after a total of three warrantee issues with the first one my expectations are super low for this one. Hopefully I am wrong and can update this if I am but all in all my experience with this controller leaves much to be desired. And I only bought the second one cause it went on sale and it was the best option available at my local Best Buy at the time

    This is the second elite controller i have purchased and it is great. I dont know how long a controller should go before getting stick drift but the first one i bought lasted less than a year before drifting became a real issue. Thankfully i have protection on this one in case the problem arries again.

    Ive been using elite controlles since the first edition. I play primalrily fps titles as well as Smite competitively. Other than the weight of the elite controllers, ive enjoyes them. They're comfortable and versatile. Paddle options and custimization are very good and the overall quality of the build is pretty good. Had it not been for me dropping my controllers fairly regularly, i wouldn't have to replace them. Overall, very good contriller.

    Love this controller. If you are thinking of upgrading your Xbox controller and deciding between this and an actual "SCUF" it is a toss up, BUT there are a few things about this that I like vs the SCUF. I like that the underbody paddles are over-under instead of side by side. It allows you to use your middle and ring fingers as opposed to the SCUF design which you have to move your middle finger back and forth to use. Also, it is compatible with all xbox compatible components which the SCUF isn't always apt to do. Lastly, this product is sexy. The charger, the carry case, the interchangeable buttons/joy sticks—everything is beautiful, durable, and nicely designed.

    Great price, however paddles in the back will wear/tear after awhile and a paddle might become a little loose. maybe 6 months in for a casual player. Doesn't affect gameplay too much but annoying sometimes. Also my left thumbstick keeps coming loose sometimes but that doesnt affect gameplay, just annoying.

    Great controller but only made it 14 months. With my warranty through Total Tech no big deal, but buy the warrant for sure.
