Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

    This is the second time I buy this controller, the first time it was always disconnecting wirelessly. This time the battery doesn’t even work so it has to be connected at all times. Other then that it’s an amazing controller and you feel the quality.

    Just want to update y'all with a longterm review. This controller has been AWESOME but the RB button is now working 20% of the presses. Big RIP. Used daily since it's launch day in November 2019. DO NOT buy this controller without warranty.

    I’ve had this remote for about a year. Its been great. Takes a little getting use to cause it’s heavier but feels premium. I’d give it a 4.7 out of 5

    W/ a warranty this is hands down the best

    The warranty at best buy is so worth it especially for something like an elite controller where you use it a lot and it takes a lot of beatings because it's my favorite controller but doesn't have the best reliability and I always just exchange it out with my total tech membership! Couldn't be happier! All the extra buttons help me play games like Destiny without ever needing to take my hands off the stick and aim but the thing that probably helped me the most was being able to adjust how tight or loose the thumbs ticks are which has helped my aim tremendously!
