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.

    This is such a smooth, high quality & responsive controller! I had a series 1 controller but spilled my beer on it (when I was being chased by a 13 year old during a furious COD match). This new controller feels great in the hands and the ability to program it creates all sorts of awesome options! Love this thing!

    Great controller for Xbox games. I use it for all of my games, but bought it especially for Call of Duty since it has several adjustable components. I do not mind skipping the extra joysticks and charging case, so I did not need to spend more money on the more expensive elite controller.

    After playing with it during the Halo Infinite Insider Flight, I'd highly recommend it! The buttons and reduced trigger time helps so much with FPS games specifically and it feels like a must if you're looking for a premium controller for PC and Xbox gaming. With so much customization on the controller and the app, it feels incredible. Can't wait for Halo Infinite and to try out the controller even more! I'll probably pick up Battlefield and Far Cry to use this controller more.

    By for the best controller for the XBOX Series X & S. I have multiple controllers from hi-end to cheap and I've found the elites customizable options for me are better. Also has great battery life around 35 hrs of hard core gaming. It's more expensive then most, but cheaper and better in my opinion, than more expensive cintrollers with the same features.

    I had the elite series one and that was great until I started getting ghost movements in the left joystick. The series 2 Elite feels a bit better with the added grips and I LOVE the recharging feature. Been playing 7 days straight still haven’t needed to recharge the remote. And this is 5-7 hours a day playing. I love that I can map the triggers in the back for games like APEX and Smite. Very customizable. It is expensive, but you “feel” the difference. I think a little cheaper and it’s 100% hands down the best controller ever.

    Feels good in my hand when playing video games. I like the extra functionality that the paddles add. It feels a little heavy, but not enough to bother long play sessions.
