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.

    Best controller ever made

    The best of the best! Great for shooters where you need your hands on the thumb sticks. Easily map buttons to wherever you want. Build quality is fantastic. My series one broke and they wernt making that one anymore so I had to wait 4 months for this and use a standard controller while I waited. It was a big adjustment in the games where I was so use to using it. I couldn't even remember what button did what! Highly recommend!

    This is really an elite controller. Very well built and is easy to use. This is cheaper than a custom controller and has every feature that a custom one has. XBox did an excellent job with this.
