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.

    The used controller was very accurate. The controller was in excellent condition. It had all the parts that come with the controller and was clean and ready to use. I will always trust bestbuy with its open box items and they are always in correct condition

    I had the original elite controller and I am very pleased with the elite 2 controller. Many more features to the elite 2 than was offered for the elite 1. Have the ability for 3 different controller presets at the touch of a button for different games you play or just variations of your favorite game controls
