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.

    Every elite controller ive gotten has started stick drift and the rb stops working all within 6 months. Get the competitors controllers. Not to mention its super heavy and will cause wrist pains.

    Love this controller, BUT i do wish they lasted longer. this is my 4th or 5th elite controller. For the price they charge it should be much more durable.

    This is my second elite 2 wireless controller. I use this for PC and the joystick will randomly move or get stuck. Recommended to get the warranty. This is still the best controller for PC.

    originally bought the Turtle Beach Recon controller, but was having problems having it turn on my X Box. This on the other hand, had no issues. Also enjoy the interchangeable thumb sticks

    Great handle mostly decent functioning, sometimes buttons don't always perform functions when hit which can be very frustrating with fast-paced real-time gaming

    Expensive but worth the purchase. Bought to replace my aging elite 1 controller. I was hesitant because of the internal rechargeable batteries as I prefer to change out batteries as needed for my own rechargeable ones.

    Much better quality build than previous model and the internal lithium battery is too notch. Adjusting sensitivity of thumb sticks is nice touch and overall responsiveness seems better.

    The elite 2 is the best feeling controller I have ever felt. The hair triggers are amazing and the ability to adjust the tightness of the sticks is incredible would highly recommend this controller
