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 love Xbox series 2 elite controllers. They are smart, ergonomic, built rock solid, smooth and sleek. If there are any controllers better I dont look for them.

    The best Xbox controller! It is hard for me to imagine going back to the standard controller. The weight and hold of the controller and the exclusion of the extras make this controller a bargain.

    Xbox Elite 2 the Greatest

    Always great products at great prices. This Xbox Elite 2 controller is the greatest gaming controller out as you can tweak everything to your liking which is perfect as gaming isn't a 1 size fits all when it comes to controller and tension on buttons, triggers and joysticks.

    Works as expected. I love the color. I had my last Elite controller for 4 years no stick drift. Only replaced it because the grip started peeling off.

    Replaced an Elite Series 1 - like this one MORE

    Purchased this to go along with a new Xbox Series S that I purchased at the same time. This replaced an older Elite (series 1). NOTE THAT THIS ONE DOES NOT COME WITH THE PADDLES OR EXTRA THUMB STICKS. If you want those, be sure to get the model WITH those items included. Microsoft sells the paddles & thumb sticks as a separate package if you get this model and change your mind later and want to add them. This controller works great. Lots of adjustments in the Xbox Accessories app on your Xbox. I use all four paddles and you can program each paddle for a different function. You can easily switch between three pre-set configurations with the button on the controller. You can also set the color of the Xbox light per configuration so it’s easy to tell which config you’re on.

    Great controller, no issues with it. I only gave 4 Stars since I purchased an open box excellent and it did not contain the charger for the case or all of the joysticks. My local Best Buy was unable to assist me further.

    Love the way this thing feels in my hands. I don't use the extra buttons so it's nice how you can remove them. The thumbsticks feel nice too and you can swap them out for different ones.

    Expensive, but I love it

    I’ll start by saying I paid for it with credit card rewards- so I didn’t have to pay any extra for it. While it’s a bit pricey, I do love it and am glad I got it. It’s very comfortable, the metal pieces are really nice and it just feels better than a regular controller. I dropped it once from maybe two feet up, some of the metal pieces popped out but they popped right back in because they’re magnetic, which is actually really cool. No issues with stick drift (yet) after a few months of use. Love it so far.

    Controller is the best out there except for the fact that the thumbsticks will start to drift in a few months. Definitely get the replacement plan. Hall effect sticks just don't feel the same.
