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 new elite colorway. Doesnt come with charging case or paddles but I found these useless on my first elite. I usually just charge it with the cord and buy colored paddles off of amazaon anyways (20$ for colored paddles)

    Loved the look and feel of the controller, having owned an originally elite. ‘A’ button stuck fresh out of the box, had to return it, were our of stock, will probably buy again next time I wonder into store, elites are worth the money, just need to find another

    Nothing different from the Elite gen 2, however if you are looking for a different color go for it, just keep in mind this is the cheap version it does not come with the peddals, sold separately.

    The paddles are great for customizing from game to game, having three different presets you can setip any way youd like its awesome. If you’re looking for that step up in gaming, this is for you.

    Way better than any other generation. Used all controllers from original Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One S, Xbox One X and Xbox Series X. This one is great!

    Can't say enough about this controller, it's just awesome! I'm normally a PS guy, however bought a Series X and this controller is the only controller someone should use. It changed the way I game 100%. If you're concerned about the price, don't be it is worth it.

    This is a great alternate purchase over the elite controller. Same functionality as the elite , minus the paddles. To be honest , i barely use the back paddles and charges just the same as any other xbox controller.

    Came in excellent condition. Not a single blemish and the controller itself performs amazingly. Got some heft and you really appreciate the fine tuning freedom.

    Love being able to customize and controls work well. Do not like that you have to buy additional package for paddles and customization. Returned one because of stick drift. This one has minor stick drift already. Works well with my Xbox Series X.
