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 really do think Xbox is making these controllers better than how they launched with the black ones, it’s solid, has amazing battery life, pretty much get 40 hours out of it per charge which compared to my ps5 controller, that’s night and day, love how you can change the Xbox logo color in settings as well!, great triggers for FPS games.

    For the price, I would avoid these. They are too prone to issues (mine developed occasional stick drift after a few months). If they get down to $120, and you have Totaltech, they are pretty good. I use mine on my Switch, with a Bluetooth adapter, along with my Xbox, and it's nice when it isn't having troubles.

    This controller is definitely built with quality. I feel if i drop it its going to damage my floor… the extra paddles on the back are a little much from my brail to process still but I’m working on that. The colors are customizable too which is cool. My only complaint is that the rubber on the grips feels a little slick at times but I’m sure they’ll wear in. Either way I’m still very happy with this controller.

    Way better than the original. Textured handles feel great, it looks like is a solid piece unlike the original that started to lose the glue after a few months of usage then the rubber around the handle would bubble up and come off the controller. The triggers have 3 levels of resistance. The control sticks can be adjusted too... Very useful. The battery lasts a while even after long periods of gameplay on Elder Scrolls Online. It's worth the money. But if your original is in perfect working conditions then save the money and keep using that one.

    Great product, however give 4 stars for two reasons. One being that the A button does not register if your clicking towards the bottom of it i find myself in game having to click the button mulit times to get to work and as you know in COD every milisecond counts epsecially with cheaters so ima actually change my 4 star to a 3 as it is so aggrating if it wasnt for how well everything else on it felt id already sent it back...will be sending it back reguarless to see if this problem can be fixed im not paying for defaultly equipment. Another issue i have is the program for controlling mapping for the elite. I dont need 3 profiles at once to have to click between if i just need two i should be able to turn off the defualt and any of the other three customizedable profiles i hate being in a game having to switch deafult and 3 profiles to get to what i need if my game only requires two profiles..like one for walking in an open world then another for fighting...

    The Xbox controller is a standout performer with exceptional battery life. It comfortably lasts through extended gaming sessions without frequent recharging. The ergonomic design offers a comfortable grip, and responsive buttons enhance gameplay. It's a top choice for console gamers looking for a reliable and long-lasting controller.

    I am a Scuf user. Got gen1 Elite controller 2 or 3 years ago and hated the paddles. Went back to Scuf. Wanted a new Scuff, but they were out of stock for Xbox. Decided to go with Gen2 Elite and was impressed. Paddles weren't as sensitive as the Gen1s. That's was my main gripe, love the improvements from the 1st elites. If they change the paddles to be on the back like the Scufs I would stay with the elite controllers. But will be buying a new Scuf soon, but the elite will definitely stay as back up.

    Like the heavier remote. Wish you could map out the extra buttons for more potential controls like mapping a PC keyboard. Previous owner clearly was hard on their equipment on even refurbished value was 3/5, maybe.

    Good weight on the elite controller, very responsive. Nice grip on the back as well. Stick drift is still a issue which is u fortunate with a higher tier controller. Spring for the warranty if you can to save you down the line. Doesn't come with the paddles which I thought was strange.

    It is a great controller other than the fact that it needs to be replaced every year because a part will break ok it. I’ve had problems with stick drift and with the bumpers on every elite controller I’ve owned. They are way to expensive to keep replacing every year.
