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.

    It's overpriced and not that much better of a controller than the standard

    This would be my 4 th elite. Had hopes for the new gen elite but its just a failure. If youre playing any fps game ,this controller would last maybe 4 or 5 month. Stick drift, button failures and back buttons not responding. It was a head ache especially when you play competitive

    Super responsive and I love being able to map my buttons or swap for paddles. Recommend getting the warranty because sometimes RB and sticks can go bad.

    Got this on sale and am very happy with it. It’s definitely an expensive controller but feels much better than regular Xbox controllers. Battery life is excellent.

    Very good controller but it seems to have too much stick drift for being a brand new controller. I looked online to see if other people were having this issue and it turns out a lot of people have had this issue over the last year. Microsoft extended their warranty up to a year for the controller instead of the 90 days they first established but this issue should have been fixed.
