Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    If you can afford it, get it! Amazing! Customizable! Loving it! Great package. Case even has magnetic charger within it. Feels perfect. Paddles take some time to get a feel for but then fit in flawlessly.

    So far so good. Ive mixed reviews about this item but decide to take the plunge (and getting the warranty just in case). It's been working great to far. It doesn't have the same issue that the OEM rechargable battery has. I haven't ran out of juice on this controller even after multiple days of usage with charging it. The build feels nice. I like a heavier controller, and the triggers and definitely nice to have. Is it life changing? No. Is it a gimmick? Also no. It's just a fancier controller with a. Few added features which are nice to have. Hopefully MSFT has had the time to fix the kinks.

    Though there were some issues with initially getting my controller, this has been a great product. The battery life is great, works well on pc and console, and has a lot more options and greater durability than the original

    I love this controller. I’ve owned the previous generation elite controller and this is a great upgrade. The paddles are smaller which helps me from accidentally pressing them all the time. The controller feels better overall.

    This is my third of these controllers. My only complaint is that the other 2 still work great, except for the single zr button on each. To be fair though, they must have lasted hundreds of hours of gameplay each before breaking. These controllers do have a great quality feel though - much better than the basic controller my Xbox came with. Definitely worth the money!

    Having owned the 1st elite series controller I didn’t think this one would be that much better, but I was wrong. This controller improves almost every aspect of the Series 1. The wrap around grips are excellent. My series 1 grips started to fall off and I don’t see that being a problem on this one. I love that it’s slightly smaller than the 1st. Because of that I can actually use all 4 back paddles comfortably. The thumbsticks and triggers feel great. The controller now has a rechargeable battery built in and can be charged by placing it on the charger that’s in it’s case. Overall a great improvement and a fantastic controller. If you play call of duty, Fortnite, etc you need this controller.

    This is a great rechargeable controller option for Xbox. I do wish that the paddles were included with each controller. It seems like a miss to charge extra for those on the side. Controller performs well, and had great battery life.
