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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Works perfect for COD and has stood up to some abuse. The charge stand and internal battery’s is awesome.

    Thought this was a good replacement for my Elite 2 I paid full price for. Just move sticks and paddle over. Problem is that the left joystick failed after only 25 days. Play about 2 hours or so every other night with friends. So this had alot less time than my scuf (that still works). I like the weight of the elite controllers. Very disappointed. Got a replacement because I am a Plus customer. otherwise I would be SOL and out $114. Microsoft quality is beginning to suck.

    ...caveat being that it is the only controller I have used except that which came with my Xbox. But it is a lovely controller. I have dexterity issues with the paddles on the bottom. But love the short trigger pull!

    Get the warranty. They tend to break within a few months thankfully Microsoft will replace them for up to 2 years I believe. If not get the extended warranty through Best Buy

    Its a really nice controller. Make sure you play with the app on pc or xbox to get the most out of it. Its got quite a few options to play with and the ability to have extra profiles is really nice.

    This controller is possibly the best gaming controller currently to ever be made. It’s new features up to and including the adjustable tension screws give the upper hand when gaming online. Pick this up you will not be disappointed.
