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 elite controllers are total game changers (pun intended)! If you are a serious FPS or fighting game player, these are a must have. Lots of customization and the thumb sticks are amazing.

    Life changing. Put off getting the elite controller for a few years. Finally done it and no regrets. However if you have bigger hands like I do, I find it’s difficult to play with all 4 back panel triggers. I only play with 2.
