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.

    Don’t buy an Xbox or any Xbox Accessories!!!

    I’ll put this very easy and clear - DON’T BUY AN XBOX OR ANY ACCESSORIES! I’ve had this controller for 1 month and it already has stick drift. I take care of my consoles and all of my accessories so this isn’t neglect it’s a matter of extremely poor quality and manufacturing. My brand new Xbox controller that came with the console stopped working after 2 weeks. The Xbox wireless headset I bought stopped working after 1 month and now this Xbox Elite controller is having the same problem. I’ve gone through so much shipping these accessories back to Microsoft to get a replacement and they won’t even promise you a brand new device, they will tell you it might be refurbished. I really hope I can save anyone and everyone reading this from buying an Xbox or any Microsoft accessories for Xbox. Spend the extra money to get a PS5.
