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.

    Once you get an elite controller it is hard to go back to a normal one. Paddles are responsive and convenient. Get your game on with a competitive edge.

    These "elite" controllers feel substantial, but still suffer from the same "drift" issues as the regularly priced ones. This is our third elite controller. I like the non-T-bar directional pad because it feels more versatile. However, I'm sure we will be purchasing another one soon when this one, like all the others, develops drift.

    I love it, it doesnt seem to have the thumbstick drift like the original elite. Only thing I dont like is the new paddles, they are just a little too small for my liking.

    LOVE this controller, especially with the short triggers. But you need to get the wireless adapter for it, to work 100% of the time.
