Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the controller's exceptional overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options. Users also frequently praise the device's comfortable grip, balanced weight, and high-quality tactile feel. However, some customers have expressed concerns regarding the durability of the buttons and bumpers, as well as the early onset of stick drift. Despite these technical frustrations and the premium price point, many still consider it a top-tier gaming accessory.

    Katie instantly went up due to the trigger adjustments. I'm coming from a PS5 controller on PC. I got to get used to the rest of the other features but I really like it

    Controller works fantastic! One slight problem is the y button likes to double press during rocket league. But other than that it works great!

    I purchased this after returning the hori fighting stick and it was the best decision i made. The D-pad just works better for me when playing street fighter 6.

    I was really excited to get the controller. Looks great, feels great, was very disappointed. Every time I pressed the A and Y button I had to press very hard if I didn’t it would not register. This happened very often. The button did not get stuck it just would not work correctly. After having this issue I did some research and found a large amount of people having this problem even after exchanging for a new controller. I returned for a refund and will just use my regular controller. If they can fix this issue it would be great, but this is a deal breaker.

    If you already have an Elite controller this is a good way to replace it for less $$ and get a new color. Would recommend!

    This controller is everything you need for an FPS game! However, I did hear there are cosmetic issues still happening even with the new Core controller so I recommend getting protection on it

    I bought one of these over a year ago for myself. I loved it so much that I gifted it to two of my cousins and one of my friends a couple months ago! If you want a top tier Xbox Controller which works on Xbox Series X or previous gen Xbox's, I highly recommend it!

    One of my favorite controllers. The thumbsticks eventually lose the tight feel and the right bumper will not consistently take inputs due to wear and tear. Despite the negative, I love this controller.

    Excellent controller, but for the price i wish Microsoft will make the entire controller red instead of being cheap and using the white controller as the base center.

    This is the Best Controller out there built in battery a great little charger stand. I love the feel of this it is a little heavy but not bad at all. Having the extra buttons under the controller is great. You can set up the controller any way you want the buttons to go.

    This is my second controller, and it tends to wear out as you use it. I would recommend a credit card that adds a warranty or pay for a warranty for when it breaks
