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.

    No way would I go back to a regular controller after this. Only con is there’s no share button like on the XSX controller for quick screen grabs.

    Love it - battery lasts forever! paddles are a bit hard to get used to, I recommend only using 2 at first (in FPS games I do right paddle for jump, left paddle for melee)

    Once you use this controller, you’ll be convinced it’s worth the price. Compared to the standard controller, it’s a world of difference. Now everyone fights for the Elite. I guess I’ll have to get another!

    I enjoy the option to set color schematics and sensitivity levels. I use Control Freaks on joysticks and they work perfectly.
