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.

    I didnt realize this was the all plastic one when I bought it, I thought it would have metal parts like my old one that lasted like 8 years. I dont use the wierd sticks or bottom buttons, so honestly I shouldve just saved some money and bought a basic controller.

    Decent. On par with the first generation if you set aside the defective units. I wish it had a little more grippiness. The paddles don't stick out as much on this one. For the price, when it's on sale, I'd say this a very good deal. If you move up to a "better" controller you're going to be paying twice as much.

    Broke a previous one after rage quitting, so I decided to upgrade. I like how everything is adjustable, I feel like it has improved my gaming experience big time. I never want to go back to the original controller.

    The controller is great, responsive, and has all the bells and whistles you expect for an elite controller. I wish I had known that the mapping would be limited to the games.
