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.

    Another great Microsoft product. Purchased to improve gaming experience with series X and more importantly Halo Infinite. The step up is noticeable, input lag improved and customization is a boost!

    Not durable for a premium controller

    This controller feels premium and durable. Unfortunately, it is not durable. This is my second elite controller and the LB button has given up once again. Granted, LB is my jump button and I use it frequently. However, this controller is over $200 and should be able to last as it is labeled as a premium controller. I'm not sure if I recommend this controller. I'm actually considering a Scuf Prestige controller if this controller breaks one more time.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I have so much to say about this controller. But, everything I would say will turn into three novels. It's a wonderful controller. There's nothing I can say, but thank you. This controller is amazing! And the price is worth it.

    This controller is amazing. A bit pricey. Setting LT and RT to hair trigger is great for FPS games. You can tell how much faster your shots are because of the hair trigger. Having the extra for paddle buttons also makes it easier in some games.
