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.

    Honestly feels nice in hand, the only issue I have is the left joystick doesn’t click in when brought all the way back. Works clicking every other direction.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    You'll be doing yourself a favor by getting this controller. A bit pricey, but in my opinion, definitely worth it. Custom settings for all buttons. I use it on PC and Cloud gaming on my Android device. Highly recommend.

    Best controller Ive owned to date…Has nice weight to it and feels durable…. I know most people complain about this controller having durability issues but I have not had any issues yet. BUT I also take care of my things, and have not dropped it since I’ve owned it.

    Love it! I was between this and a SCUF controller. This is the much better option in my opinion especially for a $50+ difference ( i got it for $158 and got the extended replacement and was still cheaper and my feeling is much better built.) The case that comes with holds the extra parts and charges the controller.

    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.
