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.

    So much better than series 1. Little disappointed that there’s not two extra long joysticks as I use those on the series one. Overall feel is greatly improved grips are great the battery life is phenomenal and be able to charge it right in the case is even better.

    This is the best controller I have ever used. I already had one before purchasing this one, this one is a gift for my nephew. The only thing that I can say is that the price might not be in everyone’s price range but if you can afford it I would highly recommend it.

    Disappointed, had to return the first one as buttons came broken, and reordered a second, it worked, and I loved it, so I give it 3 stars, rapid hairtriggers, paddles are good addition.

    When buying these controllers take out the warrenty as you will need it. Left and right bumpers go out as my previous ones did. With that being said stick tension adjustment and paddels make a huge difference in game play and the controller feels great ergonomicly. Love my Elite controller just wish there was better life to bumpers.

    Great FPS purchase, but the paddles on the back are worth it. The linger sticks youd want to use for precision aim. Be wary of your LB and RB, most elite controllers' bumpers can be built a little weak

    Absolutely love this thing. Its significantly cheaper than a scuff or a battle beaver, but it has the same (if not, better) build quality. Battery life is also unmatched

    Hands down the best remote I've ever played with. Came to Xbox from 20+ years on playstation. Moved for headphones add the primary reason and was totally bowled over by the outstanding awesomeness of this remote. It's THAT MUCH BETTER. Period.

    This is the best controller in the world. Love using this for multi-player games such as war zone. You can map the buttons on the bottom to what you want to you can play better. Has a long lasting battery to keep you playing all night. The best controller period.
