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.

    Bought this for my son for Christmas. He loves it, but within 6 months it’s acting up and a couple of the buttons don’t work or don’t work well.

    I play games on just about everything (PC, Xbox, Phone) and I am so glad I have this controller to use on all these platforms. As soon as you pick it up you know it's a great quality build. Extremely easy to switch out sticks and d-pad (takes seconds). It's also very easy to set the paddles to whatever button you want (I did it through the Xbox).

    Let me start off by saying, I play Call of Duty in a competitive manner, so my controllers will take more abuse than the average player. But within 2 weeks, the controller began to show wear already with the sticks squeaking and the triggers making noise when depressing them. If you are comparing this between a SCUF, absolutely go with the SCUF the extra money is worth it. But if you are looking for a controller than can just do more than a regular one, be configured, and adjusted in every possible way, this is your choice. If you play in any professional manner, or for 5+ hours a day go with the SCUF.

    To be honest, just get a scuf controller. Its a decent controller yeah, feels somewhat good. But i actually dont use any of the features. Removable d-pad and joysticks, i use the same ones everywhere and have no need to change to something uncomfortable. Im on PC as well so controller becomes more and more alien the further i am away from using one. Which is majority of gaming sessions

    I own the first one which is great. I bought the new and it is 10 times better. Tension control thumb sticks are awesome! Smaller paddles which is great cause I used to accidentally hit the bottom ones on the series one. Not sure why some people are saying the controller is slippery, cause I don’t have issues with that. Nothing negative to say about the controller at all

    I enjoy using it, back paddles are addressable on Steam for extra buttons, very useful.
