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.

    So far this controller has perfomed well despite negative reviews regarding stick drifting. I come from using the Razer Wolverine Tournament edition and still enjoy that controller, but its just something about having the option to play wirelessly and still getting decent performance results makes my gameplay experience so much more enjoyable. I also do prefer the back paddles and adjustable stick tention over the Razer as well. Hopefully the quality lasts long.

    Great controller but poorly made only reason to buy this controller would be woth a solid warranty like the total tech from best buy to where you can swap it out when need be. The sticks drift within 2 months the buttons get stuck without have sticky stuff on your fingers.

    I own the Elite 1 and still have it from years ago. This is a great upgrade. Totally worth ever penny. They reformed paddles so you accidentally push them. Great controller from a hardcoe gamer!

    I had the series 1 before upgrading, and it’s definitely an improvement. Grip is better and more durable.

    I’ve owned two series 1 elites and so far this controller is quite the improvement for the most part. The buttons all feel about the same, but the grips seem to be implemented far better than the series 1’s grips. The only minor nitpick I have is the buttons (namely the paddles) feel almost too click (this is a matter of personal preference really), and they’re also slightly different in their shape compared to the series 1, which I thought it’s paddles were just fine and didn’t need tweaked. Other than that very minor gripe I think I love it. The rechargeable

    I tried to upload a picture of my controller along with the grips I bought separately! THIS IS THE BEST CONTROLLER IN THE PAST 6 years of streaming and gaming that I have found. I will never go back. Talk about a disadvantage when it comes to you against other players! They better watch out. My k.d has gone up immensely and has made the experience of Xbox fun again for me. Thanks guys!!

    Finally decided to spend the money on a fancy controller. I paired this for my PC and works great. The controller feels high quality and feels great in your hands. Also like the different button options available to customize to your liking.

    Picked this up as an open box. I love the feel and weight of this controller. I’m not a great player but this helps me play a bit better with the paddles and being able to assign what they do.

    It’s an overall solid controller. The reason for the four stars is the wear and tear. Sticks get dick drift after a year of heavy gameplay and considering the price I believe it should be at least two years for any part malfunction

    Saw this controller online and I had to get it because it looks really good and I've heard some good reviews on it. Best Buy Customer Service was amazing. When I arrived everyone was friendly and as soon as I requested my Item they went to go get it fast for. Overall I haven't had any issues and it works well no problems. Product feels good when holding.
