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.

    Elite controller for an elite feel of gaming

    I've been using this controller for almost a year now and I love it. I think this is the best controller you can buy right now. You can remap the buttons, adjust the sensitivity of each joystick, make 3 presets of customization for different games. The joysticks themselves can be swapped out for different shaped ones that come with it. I have gotten so used to the the paddles on the back that I can't go back to a normal controller.

    Great controller if you want the ability to customize the settings. Once I played with the Elite, never went back to standard. Like being able to swap dpads, adjust trigger pull, and add levers to the back for additional functions.

    I upgraded from the Elite controller version 1... I love the textured grip where your palms rest, as well as the additional accessories you get vs the Series 1. For example. there's now a 360 style pop on joystick that's noticeably bigger/rounder than Xbox One's and I LOVE IT! I've missed the bigger/larger sticks so getting this back is welcomed. I just wish they'd make the 360 larger sticks with the textured grip on the rim of it like the Xbox One's sticks so I could have the best of both world's lol. No complaints though!

    Works like a charm. Tested with Windows PC, SteamDeck, and NVIDIA shield. Flawless connection. If you want to enable the levers you will have to buy the additional set for the paddles. This is only the controller itself. Works well with small hands, I am somewhat doubtful if this is very comfortable with large hands.

    Quite a nice sturdy feeling controller. It weighs quite a bit more than a normal Xbox controller as it has a built in battery and is just made of heavier stuff. I wish the built in battery was removable as I play wired. All in all if a heavy controller doesn’t bother you I would get it. Swing for the complete set if you can core is nice but having all the extras would complete it.

    Best controller I've ever used. 4/5 because I've had to send it back TWICE because of issues. MS is pretty quick (7ish days on average from sending back to receiving your replacement) and I cannot play on other Xbox controllers anymore, and it makes the cool PS% dual sense feel like it's just lacking features. I HIGHLY recommend you buy the 2 year replacement plan from BB. For hassle free replacements.
