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.

    Best Xbox Controller

    By far the best xbox controller you can get, easy to use and customize to your liking. The stiffness of the triggers is a game changer in any games, makes you ads and shot so much faster. Once u buy this controller you’ll never buy a regular controller again. Ive bought 4 so far and will continue too.

    Best controller to game with hands down

    This is by far the best controller I’ve ever owned.(yes including the PS5 dual sense) Only reason I didn’t give a 5 star rating is I’ve had multiple elite series controllers in the past, and there are always issues that eventually occur. Shouldn’t happen so frequently with hardware that costs this much, but it always seems to unfortunately. That being said, I absolutely love gaming with the elite series 2. It’s extremely useful, and now that I’m accustomed to it, I can’t go back to a standard Xbox controller.

    This is my second Elite S2 the first lasted about a year and the left stick was broken all the way up couldn't bring it back down. The A button would get stuck down and the LB RB would stick. Keep in mind im retired and I game constantly, well over 90hrs a week, so I'm pretty abusive to my controllers. I would guess about 2-3 years for a normal usage gamer. I love the controller and im going to keep buying them as they break until they have a new model. Its conformable customizable and lasts way longer than your standard edition. Sure its expensive but I think the price is worth it. (Get the warranty)

    GREAT when it works properly! Unfortunately I’ve only had the controller less than 6 months and the Right Bumper and “A” Button are almost unresponsive. As well as developing stick drift in the left Analog Stick already. Warranty is absolutely necessary for any Elite controller.

    I had bought this controller when it first came out and decided to get a 2nd one for my 2nd xbox series x. It's definitely a major upgrade from the elite series 1 controller. The rubber grips are better and I love how I'm able to change the tension on the thumb sticks. The quality is excellent. The ease of use is excellent. Very easy to set up and update and map the buttons to your liking. My only con about this controller is that's it's a little more expensive than the original elite controller with only a couple of upgrades. I would definitely recommend this to any hardcore or pro player.

    The best controller a gamer can buy. Once you get used to it and figure out good button mapping ( I recommend A,B,X,Y, your thumb never leaves the joystick so you can easily multitask) you will never want to use a normal controller again
