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.

    Good but there are better for cheaper. If you want a high end controller go for it but there are cheaper options that are just as good.

    A little upgrade from the regular controller. I’m just waiting for the controller to break like the rest of the Xbox controllers.

    Overall this is a solid controller and feels great in the hand, the one downfall is when it gets stick drift and you’re unable to fix it in the settings. Other than that the controller is worth it given the hefty price tag.

    This was bought for my grandson for Christmas. He loves the controller. It’s wireless so it gives you a little more freedom of movement.

    Great product, if you already have an elite controller take the paddles off the back side and switch them over and save a few bucks.

    Controller feels to built of decent quality. The only issue that I really have from time to time are the button presses not getting registered. A bit buggy every now and again but still an overall good controller.

    Had to return this controller twice until I received one that worked 100%. First one had problems with the A button. Second one had left stick drift. Third one was perfect. For the price they shouldn’t be that unreliable but with the Geek Squad warranty I was eventually pleased.

    I like that its a bit heavier, the paddles are nice at times but get in the way at other times. This will definitely get stick drift.
