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.

    For $180 I expect it to work flawlessly, but as soon as I started using it I noticed that the menu button and Y button had to be pressed hard to register.

    Definitely a step up from the included controllers. This is my first “elite” controller and the paddles on the back are great for certain games.

    I was actually lucky enough to find one of these on a geek refurb price. It wasn't scuffed, the box was as new looks, everything was there. So I have my second one... The first one, I'm actually looking to Dr. because how ever I hold the handles, I somehow squeeze and put too much pressure. So I, literally over time crushed some of the holding brackets. didn't know I could do that. But it doesn't matter, I'm getting some faceplates and going to try to make an Gold on Gold Elite controller. GoldFinger!!!

    Dpad is weirdly strange when using the down direction. Overall the controller is well worth the upgrade over stock xbox controllers.
