Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

    Bought this the day in came out in November. RB stopped working in June. My friend's RB also stopped working around that time. Controller was out of stock for a long time until today when I finally got my chance to return it. Does my Geek Squad warranty continue for the entire two years I paid for? NO, it does not. Guess I'll have to purchase a new warranty then...oh, now it's $59.99 instead of $39.99? Wonder why? Maybe because I've had to return 4 or 5 of these "elite" controllers. They're just as fragile as the normal ones this has proven not to be a good investment. Did not purchase warranty this is the last one of these for me.

    My first controllwr was broken roght out of the box. The A face button woukd only register about half of the time. I returned and exchnaged it for tje same controller, and the one i recueved was the sw problem, except it was both the A and B face buttons. Very frustrating for a basic function to not work on a $130 controller. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

    Amazing controller when it works. After roughly a year of use the bumper buttons stopped working. This is an issue I've had with every elite controller ive owned

    Expensive paperweight

    This thing didn't even last 2 months. First, the buttons wouldn't register being pressed unless you solidly hit the center. And then all of a sudden, it stops detecting ANY USB cable plugged into it. So now it can't charge. I have a $140 Xbox-themed paper weight. I'll just stick to the regular Xbox controllers from now on. The "Pro" version is clearly all marketing. Never again.

    Was expecting a lot more. I easily would accidentally click the back tabs and while its pretty grippy the rubber ends up being easily scuffed as well. For the price the controller didn't work enough.
