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.

    Smooth playable controller, love the extra buttons underneath to change button layouts, the different button layouts changeable on the fly at a push of the button for different games.

    Expensive controller that cost me more money

    This is a very well constructed and quality controller that feels really great to use. My issues with it stem from its pc compatibility. Firstly I would not use this controller via bluetooth, as there is intermittent latency, use a dongle or a cable to connect. Secondly, and my biggest disappointment, is that there does not appear to be any first party support for keyboard mapping. I found plenty of tutorials on how to use it. But when you try and use the software to map, the options are not there. I ended up using a third party software to accomplish this

    After having this controller for a couple of months now & finally having a real opportunity to play with it, I realized that I don’t have everything that was suppose to come in the box. When trying to charge my controller I realized that I didn’t have a USB-C cable that was suppose to come included in the box. I am highly perturbed at this moment. Help!!!

      Hey there,

      We're sorry that you're missing the USB-C cable from your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. If it's still within Best Buy's return period, we recommend exchanging your controller for a new one. Otherwise, the good news is that the controller is compatible with any standard USB Type A-to-USB Type C charging cable. Best Buy has a few different options available.

      Hope that helps,
