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.

    Controller is bit more expensive than I would of liked but the customizability of it makes up for the cost. Love the fact I can fine tune the tension of the sticks and what the back paddles can do.

    First one I picked up was missing all of the accessories and was filthy. Returned it and grabbed a different one. Second one was in near perfect condition. Be careful with the open box products.

    If you are a fan of the newest standard controller that ships with Series X|S and are wanting something more from your controller; this Elite Series 2 might be the tool to improve your game. I'm a Halo player and it's fun to be able to map, save, and switch Slots depending on which Halo game I am playing. Muscle memory is key, and this controller has left me satisfied for the future.
