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.

    Excellent controller. Bought one when they were first available, but got stuck drift within 35 days of use. This new version is holding up very well and feels tighter.

    Good value as I didn’t require the bumpers. Controller feels solid and comfortable to hold. No 5 star due to a rattle after a year of use in the vibration. Never dropped or damaged which is unfortunate.

    elite controllers are some of the best on the market and this is a good compromise for price if you dont want to spend the extra money for others.

    It is an elite 2 without all the extras. Great for replacing broken elite 2. Im not a big warranty person but i highly recommend getting the warranty. Saves you about $70 (if you buy the warranty again after turning in broken controller) and saves you the headache and stress of getting a new controller. If you start getting stick drift, button stop working, controller stops charging, battery stops holding a charge, etc, take it to bestbuy, redeem the warranty, they give you the new controller, buy the warranty on it for $50, and you are back to gaming. (Warranty is 2 years, its a new controller)

    Xbox controllers have always felt great, and this one builds on that. The sticks are good and even though there are reports of stick drift later, if you have the best buy protection you can easily swap them out!

    Best Xbox controller for competitive gaming. I will see it is better to get the insurance with this item because the buttons and joystick tends to wear out.

    Great controller. I always use the elites, you just have to buy the warranty cause if you play a decent amount the controller does break easily
