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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

    The grip makes it easier to hold for me. I have physical challenges that can make holding a controller difficult. The textured grips really help. The mappable back buttons make all the difference. My hands are small, so it can be hard to move all around the controller. The back buttons help me manage longer play-time.

    This is a really solid controller with a nice case. The XBOX app lets you create three custom button layouts and save them to the controller. I also change the center button LED, so that each custom button layout has its own color.

    Good controller upgrade. This should be OEM for the Xbox Series X system since the system depreciates in value.
