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.

    I finally upgraded my Xbox controller and now I wish I had done it sooner. It has so many features and allows you to play different styles and different types of games easily.

    Open box saved me over $80 and the controller was as good as new, not a single part missing. Save your money, buy open box.

    I love the controller. I just hate how buttons have gotten stuck over time and/or stopped working - left trigger and right bumper. I've had to replace the controller twice, but keep coming back for more!

    Months in and both bumpers have stopped working half the times I press them. I have to press hard in the middle to get them to register the click now which makes this unusable. Sad because I owned the original Elite controller and had the issue with the rubber gripping peeling off on both sides. Now this controller has defective left and right bumpers after only a few months of use, never dropped.

    Really enjoying this controller. This is the first time I have bought an elite controller and i got to say, it is a game change. Makes it so much easier to play fps games. I will not go back to the regular controller after this.

    Too expensive for what it is, and I've found that the triggers are a bit clunky if you're not playing a 1st person shooter game.

    Love this controller! So many different ways to customize to you specific gaming style and comfort. Was skeptical if it was really worth the price... The money u save on batteries and the fact it comes with its own charger and protective case just adds to the value.

    Overall controller is the same as Elite series 2, the only difference is the build quality is a little cheaper and the accessories dont come with this one.
