Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller's high-quality build, excellent battery life, and comfortable grip. Many appreciate the customization options and the controller's overall feel and weight. However, customers are negative about the prevalence of stick drift issues reported by some users, as well as concerns about the durability of certain buttons and bumpers. The positive feedback on features like customization and feel is frequently offset by negative experiences with controller longevity.

    Super responsive and I love being able to map my buttons or swap for paddles. Recommend getting the warranty because sometimes RB and sticks can go bad.

    Excellent quality for a gaming controller. For an aftermarket controller, it surpassed the original.

    Great controller, but a heads up that the bumpers will wear out over time. Make sure you get the extended warranty, and you should be ok.

    amazing product, due to the fact of personal customization for each game and the interchangeable d-pads, paddles, and thumb sticks, i love the fact i can change them out when im switching games and switching my play style. i personally am a multi gamer, and i switch out my games constantly so im always changing my play styles and switching pieces on my controller. i do highly recommend this product.

    Improvement over the series 1

    The grips feel way better and it feels like it’s just better made than the previous series. The battery life has been amazing. I’m a streamer and play a good amount but so far this controller has been nothing but great. I wish it came with 2 of the tall thumbsticks instead of 1 and the paddles on the back are smaller than the series one but luckily I just transferred the larger paddles over since I had the series one. Thumbsticks however are a different size attachment so you can’t transfer those over. Like I Said so far the controller seems like a big improvement but we’ll see how the durability holds up and I wish they gave us another large thumbsticks and the paddles were slightly bigger.

    I love this controller, it feels very premium in my hands. Super nice material, and the buttons are satisfying to press. Decent bit of customization you can do with the physical buttons, then switch the “button binds” in the accessories app. I unfortunately broke my old one, but I loved the controller enough to where I may end up buying another

    I was hesitant to buy this again. The first one I got for Christmas from my wife. Brand new right out of the box it was defective and had stick drift and I was pretty disappointed.. was impossible to play first person shooters like call of duty. So We returned and if getting it from Walmart was the reason I don’t know..Then bought it from bestbuy and wow!! I’m really impressed and enjoy using this for Warzone.. grippy and a little heavier but has a nice feel with a lot of settings.. good thing I took a chance on it again.. worth the buy!
