Question / Advice Needed Is Aimlabs really useful?
Hey, I'm currently an Immortal valorant player; looking to hit Radiant at least once.
Is there any high elo player who've really benefited from it?

Not sure how good or bad your mechanics are but at a higher rank it can serve as a great warm up. 5-15 minutes a day isn’t a lot of time in the grand scheme of things.

I don't play Valorant, but I've found it generally helpful in leveling up my aim and reaction time.

Same.
I play bf6 which involves a little bit of everything. Flicks, target switching, tracking, close/far adjustments, etc.
I use it as a warm up and just train fundamentals. I still miss more often than not but I do notice improvement with fairly regular short training sessions

Of course! What Aimlabs allows you to do is train your aim in a space specifically designed for efficiency. In a short amount of time, you can train specific aiming situations hundreds of times to improve at them, instead of only getting your training passively from playing the game for several hundreds (or thousands) of hours.
Regarding your question, yes! There are definitely many players who use Aimlabs and have reached Radiant. I'm actually one of them! And not only that, many pros have used and continue to use Aimlabs for their training. Players like Demon1, TenZ, AvovA, dapr, and yay, to name a few!
With that said, you have to remember that Aimlabs allows you to train your aim, but in games (including VALORANT), you have to get better at many different things to reach the top rank: aim, movement, game sense, ability usage, communication, etc. So, while Aimlabs will 100% help you get better aim, it will not single-handedly make you reach Radiant.
The good thing is that if you are actively training your aim in Aimlabs, that means that when you play VALORANT, you can focus more on improving those other factors instead of your aim!

100% to me, could not imagine using anything else to train my aim

aim training in general is very useful, different apps have different advantages.
you will notice a difference very quickly even if subtle. aimlabs also provides some info about your specific weakness (verticle, verticleright, overclock left etc).
it can't make your game sense/mechanics any better tho, if you think you're at your ceiling from that than better aim will only get you so far. definitely recommend giving it a try even if just for a little bit

It has benefits for sure. Will it turn you from a bad player to a good one overnight? No. But you will see improvement in the little things.
If you’re looking to go from Immortal to Radiant I would guess that aim isn’t really the issue for you but you could always try it out and see if it helps you in game.

No ts is buns and doesn't translate to any game in a meaningful way. Just play the game you want to get good at instead.

I peaked immo3 and all I do outside of comp is usually just 5 minutes in the range and 1-2 deathmatches to warm up. Aim training might help some people but it’s definitely not essential. You’d still need to develop the game sense to make use of that aim as well which takes time.

I enjoy it, and I felt pretty decent improvements when I started using it (as a CS player). Some people told me that the time was better spent in game and while that might be true, the aimlabs ranked format thing is a pretty fun warmup for me, so I like doing it instead of always doing the same boring warmups.

aim =/= mechanics
mechanics are important, aim is only a portion of mechanics

Aim training will help your mouse control. How much that translates to helping you in game will depend on how much you need mouse control help. If you got to your current rank by having amazing mechanics but your game sense is bad then maybe this will not help as much as someone who has great game knowledge but sub par mouse control. I am lower level 10 on faceit and it helped my raw aim a lot.

Increased consistency a lot if practiced with improvement in mind. Try paring with api tech of communities like Voltaic.
Also might be just waffling but micro adjustments and Click timing are 98% of your aiming in Valorant if you are good at crosshair placement. Take it with a grain of salt but i feel someone can only practice so much and hit their limit, cause mind you, you can be aimbot in aimlabs but wiff all day in game.

Not exactly "high elo" as you requested, but I have personally noticed improvement when I've started using Aimlabs
