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.

    The Xbox Elite controller series 2 is definitely better than the original elite. They started with a good controller in the elite but made the series 2 much better.

    The Core controller is good enough for the price. I definitely would buy the accessories but not necessary, just wanted to get an extra one so my son and I can play together.

    Probably not worth it for most people, but once you get used to a controller with paddles on the back, there is no going back to a regular controller.

    These are so hard to come by so I bought one just incase my elite 1 broke again. Decided to open it and use it because I was having issues with a new headset and wanted to see if the controller was the problem. Went ahead and played a game of COD Warzone and haven't put it back in the box. Grips feel great and they fixed the issue i had with the elite 1 when you used the quick setting on bumpers for shooting games you wouldn't get much of a response if you tried to drive a car for example GTA5 or COD warzone. Only complaint is the paddles aren't as large as the elite 1s so i swapped them out and been using ever since.

    This is a pretty good controller but if you going to charge so much for it, make sure the quality is very good and the item last.
