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 one was a bit of a letdown. I upgraded from the original Elite controller because that one requires a USB dongle to connect to my machine and was hoping for the same experience. This one feels cheaper, has some weird issues with connectivity, and overall disappoints in the aesthetics department. Otherwise, it's a decent controller and I'd recommend these over third-party brands any day.

    I game on a PC and it’s kinda hard to find a controller that’s comfortable because I have very large hands but I can say it connects great to a computer works great. I just wished it was about an inch wider

    I honestly love everything about this controller with regard to the features and way it changes how I play. However, I am needed to replace the controller again after having button issues and stick drift issues. I always take great care of my tech so these widespread mechanical issues are a damper on an otherwise great controller. Definitely get the Best Buy replacement warranty for this one.
