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.

    I love it, makes my gameplay a lot better and the fact that you can get paddles for extra buttons, and also switch out the joy sticks is pretty sweet, nice controller if you can afford it

    Great upgrade from other Xbox controllers. Lots of flexibly with trigger settings and button configurations. I added paddles and accessories separately and they add flexibility.

    In my opinion, this is the best controller on the market. Its ability to customize and adapt to my personal gaming needs is something the regular controller just can’t do.

    I love my controller! It’s very responsive although I must admit after 100 hours of usage it will begin to lose its touch but Believe that’s for ultimately for competitive(Due too competitive pressing) play! If you’re playing more of a laid-back game; you should be good to go for a long time.

    Ergonomic design, heavy, comfortable, elegant and customizable! Honestly? Since I got my headset, this is the best purchase I’ve done for my Xbox and PC. I love the fact you can charge it INSIDE the case. And carry it without ruining the buttons, sticks or triggers. Plus other things y’all should check out about it... love it!

    I am loving this controller. It feels so good in the hands. And I love how you can customize the controller to your needs. Also I am loving that you can change the LED light on the controller with the Xbox accessories app on Xbox.

    Since I got the elite controller I never went back to the regular controller, for first person, shooters I use the paddles can’t go back to using the regular buttons on those types of games and it feels good in the hands.

    Solidly built, great controller for Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, or PC/Mobile. Long lasting built in battery, the 4 programmable buttons on the back can be remapped to any button on the controller. Love it so far and highly recommend!

    Pretty durable for clumsy players or short temper players. Plus you can exchange parts to customize or replace damage parts. Also comes with neat feats for competitive gamers

    Bought the elite series 2 Xbox controller for only 80 dollars because it was an open box. When the controller arrived the condition was excellent.

    Great controller with plenty of customization. The only slight problem is the analog stick likes to swing in the opposite direction when you let go of it.

    Great for online gaming, paddles are extremely useful for shooters but can be programmed to any button you want so can also be useful for other types of games.

    Ever since the first elite controller dropped I couldn’t play Xbox again with a regular controller. The grip the touch the feel the feedback everything just feels luxurious with this piece of hardware I wish the price would come down a tad but you gotta Pay To Play can’t live without it highly recommend it.
