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.

    I had bought the elite 2 when the Xbox series X was released as I play Microsoft flight sim on my Xbox (when I can and it’s not crashing to the desktop). The battery died so I had to get a replacement. I’ve had to this controller and I like it better then the black elite series 2. It’s cheaper for go for it. Nothing beats the Skuf controllers.

    Nicest controller so far, but it died way sooner than I expected. It hasn't died completely, but it just keeps blinking and doesn't connect. And the none elite controller also broke but because of another flimsy excuse.
