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 controller is great until it is not. It suffers the same plague as Elite One. The bumpers wear out. If you buy one, get the extended warranty, it will pay for itself guaranteed. You have to wonder how the stock controller will last forever, but the Elite will not last 6 months.

    I don’t understand why this is not part of the the console… these are so easy to use! And just like the new Astro A50 headphones, I don’t have to mount it far away, near the console, but can mount the charging station next to my gaming chair and start a game from there, or charge it more conveniently!

    Worked good for a while. Sturdy and feels good. Then the buttons started to stick, and double click, from one touch.

    Thought it would be an upgrade to the older Xbox controllers with terrible Bluetooth for pc connection. Sadly it’s still wonky. Other than that’s it’s perfect, long battery life, and the upgrades are definitely worth it as an upgrade for a pc controller.
