Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great controller with excellent features. Only problem, is the issues these controllers tend to develop. Personally, I have gone through at least half a dozen of these controllers since they debuted. Stick drift is a gaurentee. Pretty smooth out of the box, but eventually, they'll break in and its not pretty. Bumpers usually are the next to fail. Haven't had issues with the series 2, as far as rubber grips peeling off. Microsoft has been aware of these issues for quite some time. Doesn't seem like they care, even with the looming class-action lawsuit over these contollers. For the price point, I wouldn't say these are worth it. Only reason i bought another one over the Turtle Beach Stealth, is the elite can still accomadate for the M80 mixamp for Astro A40's. For a little extra $, get something with Hall-effect sticks. They dont break as easy.

[Employee of bestbuy] The controller has been working great it exactly what I wanted, I’ve been using it for 3 weeks so far and playing with it has been fun. I would recommend if you want an elite controller without the other accessories.

I've owned it for a little bit now and I haven't had any issues with it, I use this controller a lot on my PC and my Xbox and it's great having a rechargeable controller that I know won't run out of battery.

Nice controller feels great in the hands. Good quality.

Ive had it for maybe a month and so far im glad my friend talked me into getting this instead of a regular controller

Best controller ever. No more batteries. Love the customization

Great controller for pro gaming and durability Great build

Is a very well constructed controller and I like how you can customize it.

Best controller I have used nice rechargeable batteries long battery life customize to your liking

Bought this as a gift for my husband and he loves it. So many different options to customize so it might take some time to figure out your ideal set up but it’s worth it !

I can’t stress this enough: buy the protection plan. I’ve read numerous reviews on some models having design flaws, stick float, etc. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE this controller, but I would hate to spend $180 on one and not have it work after the 90-day Microsoft warranty runs out. My first didn’t charge on the base, current one seems flawless.

A good upgrade from the ones I had like the way they feel in the hand I like everything about them they are definitely worth the upgrade

Works wonderfully. Nice and smooth on the joysticks and triggers.

Always get insurance the rb button will give out after 6-8 months if used often

Excellent Functionality and customization, though it is very expensive, the price jump over the original was a bit unnecessary. the rubber grips are a big help for sweaty gaming sessions, and the rechargable battery is a nice touch, although it is a shame that it is built-in and non removable.

Good controller with good external build quality and feel. Always get the warranty as this controller is known to have issues with stick drift or buttons getting stuck. Great while it works!

I would not want to use any other controller…… Best ever

This is the best controller I have ever played with! The buttons are very responsive, the ability to change sensitivity on that trigger buttons is amazing, and the paddle buttons on the back feel great. I mostly play Fortnite and I use the most sensitive setting for my right trigger and the middle sensitivity for my left trigger. It’s taking me a bit to switch to using my back buttons instead of using the buttons on the front, but I’ll get there with more practice! The looks are great as well, but my favorite part is the magnetic charging station. I just lay the controller back in its case and it immediately starts charging! I don’t have to move it around first to make it work either. 10/10 would recommend. If it was $30-40 cheaper, I think these would be flying off the shelves!

Excellent controller. Had the original and decided to upgrade to the second version, no disappointment at all. Quality feels better and the sticks are durable. Customizing the controller paddles/buttons is ready to do from the app in your Xbox console

This controller is worth the extra money if you are a serious gamer. Definitely worth the extra, the features are the best in class.
