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.

Poor design
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like most Xbox elite controllers, even with proper care; the trigger eventually broke jsut from being used. Sad design

I would recommend this to a friend LB Button stopped working.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s insane, you pay over $150 for a controller so you are expecting to get a quality product. I bought this almost exactly a year ago. Several weeks ago the LB button stopped working. Microsoft won’t replace it of course. They don’t have enough money I guess. The controller is nice until your buttons stop working. I had the controller previous to this as well which had issues with the grip coming off. It’s always something. Disappointed.

Staff was great, controller wasn't
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Controller felt tough and durable, but had stick drift out of the box. Returned it for another one and it also had stick drift out of the box. The staff was great and helpful but the product itself was sub par.

Defected
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought 5 and returned them all, each came out of the box defective. Issues from stick drift to sticky face buttons to crunchy triggers with each controller having one of these issues. My stock 2 year old controller that came with my Xbox one X is far better controller with a control freak on the right thumb stick “and no issues at all after two years”
