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.

    Great controller. Some of the optional buttons feel cheap, but it creates an advantage with mapping buttons.

    I had a white one and bought this one for my brother. You cannot see in the picture that the bumper, trigger, and backside are glossy blue.

    I bought an openbox controller. I'm not sure I'd pay the full $180 price for one of these, but the interchangable thumbsticks and magnetic D pads are a cool idea. Charges with any USB - C charger. That's nice.
