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 vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    Amazing for my Windows gaming PC. Sturdy, easy to charge, and fully customizable control is great for all of my gaming needs. Vibration can get a little out of control, but you can adjust to your liking.

    This is simply the best controller in gaming, and the quality is much improved over the original version of the controller. I think Xbox has a gem of a product and will continue to innovate and improve.

    Its such a nicely made controller I no longer use the regular ones. It does have a very small amount of stick drift over time but nothing like the old controllers. Highly recommend.
