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.

    Great controller and it is totally worth it. The battery last what seems like forever. I rarely have to charge and when I do it’s lightening quickly because of usb-c. If you enjoy gaming and not paying for batteries or silly pack then purchase this controller.

    Took a moment to get used to the extra paddles (which are optional) but I can't go back to a regular controller now. Only issue I found is that the rubber grip on the controller will peel off with time. I suggest getting a cover/sleeve for it to prevent or delay that issue from happening.

    I love the Elite controllers. This is my 3rd in a matter of years and Microsoft kinda needs to look into some of the ongoing issues, but this is one of the best controllers out there.

    I bought this as a bday gift for my husband because the older model wasn’t exactly working for him anymore. Weve both been impressed by the customization abilities and overall performance. Overall, a great purchase.

    The controller feels great and well built. The ease of swapping out the joysticks or removing paddles is amazing. But with all that being said i do not believe this controller is worth its hefty price tag. You can buy 4 or 5 regular controllers for the price of this, or even a console. Way too expensive so in the end decided to return it.

    Really like this controller. Comes with different stick options. Really like optional taller stick (wish it came with two instead of one). Also has the ability to adjust the tension on the sticks with the included tool USB C connection. Includes nice case and charging dock. Battery is built into the controller so not replaceable. Battery life is excellent!

    I have now had 4 pro controllers and each one has a peice that stops working after 2-3 months of gaming. The first 2 were the original elite series and the second 2 were the elite series 2. Each controller has had a button stop working and to make things worse they’re different buttons EVERY TIME. DO NOT buy without a protection plan I made that mistake on the first 2.

    Was very skeptical about this at first due to the high cost, but after using it a few times I love how easy it is to use and how you can customize your settings. This controller makes game play much easier and more enjoyable

    Bought the controller when it first released. Approve of the feel and back panels. Unfortunately, the left Thumb Stick lost its clicking, most likely due to overuse/user. Fortunately, purchased the Geek Squad Protection and was able to get a replacement back in August 2020; had to purchase a new Geek Squad Protection plan that was higher than the original price :(
