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.

    I waited way to long to get one and I regret that. If you’ve never tried one and have been using the standard controller you are missing out.

    Haven’t had much time with the elite series 2. However, what little time I have had it is far superior to the elite series 1. The controller feels heavier and of higher quality than the series 1.

    I think the controller and it's features are some of the best in the market. I use it on my PC and I only have 2 notes. 1. The connection issues are the only thing that made me debate on returning it. It will drop for little to no reason even when updated and right next to my PC. 2. The price is a tad high for a controller. I do understand it has fancy features but I payed over 250 with the warranty which I wasnt to thrilled about.

    The controller felt and looked amazing. However, my right trigger stuck if pushed all the way down. Returned it, didn’t feel like trying to fix it myself. However i hear that these controllers are very hit and miss.

    Great product when it works, but I had to return it after 2 months due to slight drift on the stick. Got a replacement and now it works flawlessly ❤️

    I purchased the original elite 3yrs ago. It was worth every penny. The elite 2 is better in every way, it’s like holding a glock in your hand. It’s thr best hands down controller on the market.
