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.

    Every button has an authoritative, reassuring press, but lowering to 4 stars because it's not quite as durable as you'd think. The vibration motors have begun rattling the chassis juuuust enough to where it's noticeable, and the rubber, textured grip has come loose up near the shoulder buttons. While in a different league entirely to the base controller, the Elite 2 is truly great... for ~8 months. Low-great, high-good thereafter.

    Amazing controller for your xbox or computer. Comes with a charging stand or you can directly plug into the controller. Paddles are removable and all the buttons can be remapped using the xbox or computer software.

    I've been a Playstation/Xbox fanboy since the beginning! But wow, the Elite series 2 controller is a piece of art. This is the best controller feel I have ever got from any controller on any system ever, hands down. Well done Xbox!

    I was very disappointed with this product after loving my original Elite controllers. It got stick drift within the first few months of owning it. Microsoft did repair it, but it took almost 6 months to receive back. Now the B button is jamming. I highly recommend getting the protection plan.

    Gotta be honest...if you have/play an xbox, its THE controller. Unless you go the Scuf route. Its a little on the pricey side, though.
