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.

    My son loves the controller for the adjustment capabilities. Def a little pricey. I just hope it won’t suffer from the drifting issues reported/class action suit.

      Hey there,

      We're glad that your son is loving his new Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. While we don't anticipate him having any issues with it, every new Xbox controller comes with a 90-day limited manufacturer's warranty. If he runs into any issues, please have him reach out to Xbox Support for assistance here: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/controller/wireless-controller-solution

      Hope that helps,
      Chuck

    Love the paddles the design and honestly most of it. Where my issue comes in is the reliability/ construction materials. I’ve bought the warranty every time now as I’m on my 5th controller in 3 years. Always get the warranty always this will break especially the thumb sticks drift paddles lose functionality and the lb rb after a while of using while break. I play a ton Of 1st person and moba so my ability’s are mapped and set up which I love and you can have multiple loadouts for sodden games which is always a plus.

    First of all, I do not know why no Best Buy’s carry this in stock ANYWHERE. So with the warranty thankfully they replaced my controller. However, I had to leave my controller with them on Monday morning and they told Me I would receive it by Friday June 27th.. on Saturday i received and update saying I won’t get it until Monday ! Thankfully I was home on Monday when they delivered it and my pck age was not stolen !!!!
