Customer Ratings & Reviews

I absolutely love playing with this controller. At first, I was hesitant because of the price but after a while I feel like the price is more than a bargain. I can use it for my Xbox, my computer and my cell phone. I can customize it for movies, individual games and streaming, soo much more. It's insanely customizable. The weight and durability are amazing. Gaming just isn't the same without it. By far one of my favorite purchases of all time. Don't even get me started on the battery life... It lasts for like 20 hrs, sometimes more.

I recently bought the Xbox Elite Controller for my son, and it has completely exceeded our expectations! The build quality is top-notch, with a premium feel that’s evident the moment you pick it up. The customizable thumbsticks and paddles allow for a truly personalized gaming experience, giving him more control and precision in every game. The grip is comfortable, even during long gaming sessions, and the adjustable tension on the triggers adds an extra level of responsiveness. The controller also syncs seamlessly with the Xbox, and the ability to switch profiles on the fly is incredibly convenient. It’s definitely worth the investment for any serious gamer, and my son absolutely loves it! Highly recommend this controller for anyone looking to elevate their gaming experience!

The best controller I’ve had so far and awesome battery life

It’s got a great feel to it and I like the ability to customize is nice, I had my first one for two years. It started to drift and the buttons began to not respond. Otherwise it’s great to use.

This controller is fantastic in just about every way. Lots of customization and fine tuning. I won’t go into the details, because anyone can research how much you can do with these great controllers. This controller is weighty, compared to the Xbox elite one, it feels about 50% heavier. I like it and have no issues, it makes it feel sturdy. I have yet to have issues with any rubber coming off like the Xbox elite one, so that is a great improvement too. The bad news is: I have had to replace about 3 of these controllers already! For me, the right bumper keeps becoming sensitive and double pressing. Eventually, it will stop working altogether, especially if you press harder on it. I believe it is a manufacturer defect (happens after a few months of everyday use). I’ve tried cleaning it with some success, but it still comes back. I highly suggest getting the replacement plan if you want to have this controller for a long time. Although I had to buy a second so that I would have no down time in between returning and ordering a new one (they are almost always out of stock at my BB store). TLDR; Buy this controller if you game a lot, but know that the bumpers (or other buttons may fail after a few months). Get the replacement plan option OR use Microsoft’s new 1 year replacement plan and expect to wait about 2 WEEKS to get a new controller. The warranty use to be 90 days, currently it is now 1 year!

Huge upgrade from a regular controller. The weight is heavier but that makes it so much better. The grip pads are an excellent touch. Love the different map settings and light customization. And getting paddles is a must

Amazing customization Great handling Great overall product and performance

Super dope controller. Feels amazing in your hands and comes with tons of extra paddles etc. unfortunately mine is missing the charger that comes w it but it’s a standard USBC so I can charge it myself anyway. Feels durable and super high quality but also comes at super high price. Great gift for a serious gamer but casual players don’t need all this

I really enjoy this controller. It has a good feel. The grips are nice. The paddles on the back are easy to reach. Programming the buttons is super easy. Some people have reported stick drift, which I have never experienced. I own two of these controllers. I will say I have never paid full price for one. I bought used off best buy and ebay (with no issues).

I think it’s a excellent controller , I’ve had 3 . I do play a lot . Especially FPS and for the most part these elite controllers give me a couple of years great use . It weighs about right and the customization options have been great. I know it’s costly but I really do feel like you get what you pay for . Microsoft also has a pretty good warranty with these controllers so I’m happy with my purchase

I really enjoy this controller. Its light and helps out alot when gaming.

Great controller. So many customizations in the Xbox accessory app. I love the different size thumb sticks and the D pad that’s included. Love the paddles, even though there was a slight learning curve for me on those. I like the fact that you can create a profile for different games and save it your controller. The controller doesn’t feel cheap and feels good in your hands. I do recommend you get the extended warranty due to the fact that controllers do have issues due to the amount of use they are put through. Great controller and a nice addition to your console.

Great controller overall. Comfortable in my hands and the additional buttons are a game changer. My last one was one of the white variants that doesn’t come with the accessories. That controller developed stick drift within a year when I’ve never had that problem with the all back controller. Maybe I got a defective item or maybe the white controllers use a different part. Anyway these usually last a couple years before I return them under warranty.

Fantastic controller great customization, it's a not heavier but more than makes up for the weight with extra battery life.

It is a very good controller I do like it the build quality is there the price is a little steep in my opinion when you compare it to something like the G7 game sir only because the software does not have as much customization as I would like truthfully but battery life lasts forever never have any problems with pairing it feels like a $200 controller but it's one of those where if this controller goes out I'll probably be buying a game sir

Where to start with this beauty of a controller. I love how well it responds to the games I love to play, to the ease of use for the in game system customization. It feels really great in the hand even in the sweatiest of situations. The case it comes with is really nice and holds the accessories nicely.

Controller is working great. It is configurable and adjustable in just about any way and can suit anyone’s needs and play style. I have had no stick drift issues with these and the paddles are nice and clicky.

Had to replace my original elite controller after 5 years and the new one feels better and battery lasts longer

Should come with the rear attachments, at least. Otherwise very good - customizable inputs, nice weight, good grip.

I really dig this controller and look forward to the inevitable Elite 3 which will (hopefully) borrow a bit more of the things I like about the Series SX controller. In the meantime, this will be just fine. It's expensive, so I do recommend trying to catch it on a sale. The build quality feels excellent, and I'm generally happy with the level of customization it allows me on PC. I primarily use this for FPS games (Apex Legends, at the moment). If you're feeling limited by what your standard controller or gamepad lets you do (especially as far as movement goes), this might help. There's a learning curve, and you'll probably spend a few days figuring out how to map your buttons with another week adjusting to using paddles, but once you get it, you can expect to feel as comfortable with it as you would any other gamepad. I really like the magnetic attachments, the trigger stops, the "Shift" options that let me program buttons do more than a single function, and the overall feel of it. The d-pad is a bit more squishy than I'd like, and I do prefer the feel of the SX d-pad to this one. It's fine, though, and you don't really use it much for FPS games, anyway. I've heard complaints about stick drift, but I think that's an eventuality with all modern controllers, regardless of brand. I typically do a full rotation with each stick before I start playing, and that tends to "reset" them, so stick drift isn't really a problem for me, especially in games with deadzone settings. That said, I've only had this a few weeks. I do have an extended warranty, just in case, so time will tell. If you think this might be for you and aren't completely turned off by the price, I'd recommend it. If you can't think of a reason you'd want it or would ever want to pay that much for a controller, skip it. Beyond FPS games, I could see this as being super cool for racing games and maybe a few other genres. Also, if you're using it for PC, get the dongle (I think it runs about $20-30). I already had one, and it works really well.
