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.

    It works well but the A button is intermittent already after only a couple of months of light use (8-12 hours a week). No issues with the grips yet like the first elite. The elite series 2 joysticks do work so that's a plus.
