Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    Love the controller. Got a second one because I didn't buy an extended warranty on my first. I highly recommend putting the 2 year service on it. I used mine daily and it started to break down after about 8 months. By 12 months (about 8 days past warranty) the left stick got all kinds of wonky. Anywho, i had everything I needed from the previous controller. so I bought this one with 2 year service and saved a bunch of $$$.

    By far worth the investment especially if you like to play FPS and Battle Royals. Favorites features are the trigger stoppers and paddles also has a nice weight to it that isn't too heavy.

    The feel and battery life of this controller are fantastic. I have to charge it about every other month. Just hate that to avoid disposable batteries, this or buying a rechargeable battery pack in 2024 is the way to do so. Other than that, I don’t regret this product at all.

    Great replacement for the Elite Series II. With the known wear out of the Elite Series parts, this is a great option to replace just the controller. If you’re a first time buyer, highly recommend finding replacement accessories off Amazon. Allows ESII users to replace their controller for more affordable price.

    better controller than a scuf. the padding for your hands keeps it from getting sweaty from food grease if you eat and play and its alot more durable and last a lot longer than scuf controllers. scuf controllers break so easy. ive had 3 scufs in 3 years and only 1 xbox elite series 2 controller for 2 years with no issues and the back paddles are easily replaceable for like 10 bucks on amazon

    Currently l been using this for one month and then had to use to play such as Call of Duty, Roblox, and some other because you can change the thumb sticks and also the D-Pad l think? Currently, nothing change and also I got a feeling that there will be a issue or an drift stick in a few months if l play too much like Competitive matches such as R6, Call of Duty, Overwatch, etc.

    Once you use an Elite controller, its a totally different experience. I have bought numerous controllers over the years and I can tell you that the difference is clear with the Elite Series. Love the color options now (This is my second controller)
