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.

    Very great quality controller with pretty much unlimited customization.I’d like to give it a 5 stars but they still had a problem with lb and Rb stopping working. Went through at least 4 elite 2s due to RB or Lb no longer working.

    Great controller, until the bumpers start acting up. Started with the left bumper then moved to the right. Possible software issue cause it changes between them. Only one works perfect while the other needs a very hard press to recognize it’s being used. Still have my previous elite 1 controller and it still works perfectly. Kinda disappointing.

    Just replaced my xbox elite 2 after about 3 years, and since having one, i only needed the core. Once having and elite its hard to go back. However they are fragile. First one is almost unusable now from 1 bad drop
