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.

    Awesome controller, amazing features for true hardcore gamers but there are a few flaws. My RT (right trigger) over time became very "sticky" it would require me to put in extra pressure to press the trigger down after having it in the medium trigger sensitivity for about a month.... not a big fan of that (like really 1 month). Also the cover on the trigger sensitivity lock popped off of my controller also within the first month and I have yet to drop this controller even as I write this review months later. Either I was given a bad controller or these are designed to break easy but regardless of the cons it's a good controller all around. take my advice GET WARRANTY ON IT!

    excellent controller with the same feel as the original Elite 2 controller, just without the included triggers/adapters (which I didn’t really use anyway); great value for the price

    Thought I would invest in this product so I didn't have to use so many batteries. Great investment. It is exactly as described. Love the ability to change the buttons. It lasts a long time on a charge, when low, I just plug in the cord or recharge. Wish I hadn't waited so long to buy it.

    The Battery Life is impeccable and the fact that you can customize the d-pad and thumbsicks makes it so cool. It has usb type c for charging which is great and I can connect the case to the usb charger so I can use the charging pad. Worth every penny.
