Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. They also frequently praise its comfortable grip, good weight, and responsive feel. However, a significant number of customers have reported issues with stick drift developing quickly and concerns regarding the durability of the buttons, including the bumpers. Despite some initial hesitation about the price, the positive attributes like its overall comfort and useful paddles generally contribute to a positive user experience.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    Love this controller, I just wish they kept the two short thumbsticks like the xbox series 1 did. Make sure you get a warranty I've had a friend break two this year and take it back for a replacement.

    Better than the first xbox elite controller. The construction of this expensive thing is better, the options to select button presets on the controller (without needed to go through the xbox menu) is nice.

    So far so good. Triggers, grips and joysticks feel great initially but time will be the real test as all these components broke on original elite controller and I went through multiple. Hoping the build quality of this series is much improved.
