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.

    Have 3 of these controllers. 2 for kids and 1 for me. Absolutely love it. A must for fps gamers. Paddle buttons are amazing!

    My first console was the Xbox 360 amd i loved that thing. But havent had a console since then. Ive been playing pc for a long time and I had a PS4 controller that I bought from a friend and connected through Bluetooth. But its nothing when compared to this. Better feeling, ease of use, just love it. Just make sure to get rhe app to have it work right in your pc

    Everything is improved on this controller from the first generation. Great matte finish and sturdy enough for long gaming session. Rubber grips can still be improved.

    This is an awesome controller!!! I never purchased a pro controller before until i got a series x, and so far im very impressed with this premium upgrade, i also purchased a scuf instinct pro and both controllers feel amazing the only gripe i have with the elite 2 is the heavyweight it has, also ive read online about the elites v2 having poor quality and reliability issues, i hope its just people being to ruff with the controller and not a real quality issue.

    I think it is a big step up from the last Elite controller. Fit and feel is great and so is the responsiveness of it. I wish the price was a bit less though...

    A bit expensive but a must for first person shooting games. Would like to see other colors though at this price point.
