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 controller is nice but after about a month or two I’m noticing some stick drift. Not the happiest about it but otherwise pretty good.

    Microsfot already invented the best xbox remote on the market the original xbox controller that come in the box. This product has amazing quality but it feels to havy and hard bringing hands fatigue and inacurate gameplay. For the price it cost it does not worth the upgrade. I took it back to the store after playing hallo infinite with it.

    I only still get these because they are only $60 to replace the warranty every 2 years. They fall apart quick and the software prevents proper movement sometimes

    Very mid. Loose left and right analog sticks coupled with loose paddles. Not for me personally. I would definitely opt in for a different controller.

    I bought this controller as used but I couldn’t ignore the saving I was getting. I love the feel of it in my hand and the paddles in the back.

    Bought this about a year ago and slowly it started not responding. Well today I was using it and no reponse when I pressed any of the buttons. For being a $180 controller it should last longer. I have an $60 PowerA Fusion Pro that is still working. If you buy the Elite Series 2 make sure you get the insurance you will need it.
