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.

    Stick drift sucks

    6 month review.... I'm now on my 3rd elite series 2 controller in 4 years... ive had this one for 6 months. MAJOR problem ..........wait for it.... you guessed it stick drift. come on guys fix it..... #HallEffect sticks and triggers.... its the future embrace it. Way better than analog until they fix this I'm moving on and that really sucks because other than that i love them, but at $180 ???? there are $40 controllers on the market with better sticks and triggers now. build quality is top notch, but internal components need to catch up with the demand of the gaming community. cant recommend anyone to buy this because of that Unfortunately..

    I play a lot of RPG, Racing, and first person shooters. The controller allows me to customize the buttons for each type of game I play and it makes all the difference. It feels and looks second to none. I will never go back to a regular Xbox controller EVER!

    Great controller— get the warranty! These are known to eventually have issues. Best Buy has been great.
