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.

    I ordered two elite Xbox controllers, selected the date for delivery, and they were there when promised. Price was very competitive and I searched many sites. Pleased overall.

    It’s an elite controller. What’s not to like? Just get ready to learn a new way to play with the extra paddles. Definitely worth the extra $$

    I will say this controller is perfect in every way and you'll pay a premium for it. I've used mine for 3 years now and its held up pretty well. I did have to take it apart and follow a tutorial on cleaning the insides specifically the right bumper. It was a pretty simple fix and works like new just need some 90+ alcohol rubbed on the bumper contacts.

    I bought this to use as my controller while outputing the video of my Legion Go to my large screen TV and it works well. I was a little bummed that this "core" kit does not come with a case or any of the extra metal buttons but i can always buy them later if I feel I need them. This kit does cone with a very long USBC braided cable.

    Nice upgrade over the original Elite controller. Feels tighter. Took a little getting used to the smaller paddles, but it was for the better.
