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.

Super Unreliable Controllers
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is possibly the best feeling controller to hold and use, however the durability of these controllers is the worst ive seen. Standard Xbox One controllers tend to last me about 1 year. This controller lasted me around 500 hours before being completely useless with stick drift. That ended up being around 1 year. However the other elites I owned averaged 3-6 months before breaking. That includes one other elite version 2. The quality on these controllers is very low. The Razer Wolverine may be a better secondary option for now. Though many modern controllers have stick drift issues. The controller should not be 200 bucks without figuring a work around or modular option to replace the sticks when they start drifting. I end up burning through the replacement warranties and its not worth it.

Great controller but cheaply made
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller itself is amazing. Lots of customizable options. Has a rechargable battery via USB C so that's a plus. My only issue is that it's still a typical Microsoft controller. After 3 months of light usage, both analog sticks were drifting. I had to put a bit of force into the left analog stick in order to register. I suggest getting the best buy replacement plan for this controller.

Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical about about paying so much for a controller. This controller is definitely worth it and I should’ve been got one.

Overpriced but nice
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A nice addition but way overpriced for what additional features you get.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Elite
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great service and great prices. Always take out the 2year warranty. Price match guarantee is what always brings me back to Best buy
I would recommend this to a friendPADDLES UNRESPONSIVE
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great until the paddles in the back becomes completely unresponsive. Apparently it's a known problem! I had mine for a year and a couple months. The controller only comes with a one year warranty. $170 wasted. Just stick with the off brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat remote for adult gamers without kids
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product, but don’t drop it you’ll lose all the pieces and hats to find. Not kid friendly at all
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. I would recommend this over the regular one
I would recommend this to a friendFancy türd
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The extra flaps and all the adjustments are nice. However, the guts of the controller are the same crap as the standard, so drifting joysticks is going to happen. You'd think it could be a little better quality for that much scratch. We're on the 4th or 5th now...
