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.

    Bought this june 11th. It died nov 4th and never turned back on. Was in the middle of playing xbox when the controller died. I thought the hattery just needed to charge so i put it in the charger. Still nothing. This controller was well taken care of and placed on a shelf put of reach of kids when not in use. Before this the controller was great with a real long battery life.

    This is the 3rd one of these I have purchased. Not because they wear out, because my 2 sons had to have one also. Nice battery life,

    I'd love it if it wasn't for the fact that i can only use it wired to the PC, if i use it wirelessly every time i hit the A button it acts like i hit the center X button (not the blue X button) other then that it's a good controller
