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.

    These controllers are the most comfortable options available. The rear buttons are placed perfectly and the battery lasts forever. I've unfortunately had to return/exchange a couple due to stick drift. If they could figure that out, it would be the perfect controller.

    Great controller definitely worth its price. Great for racing games and also FPS games. The ability to map the buttons and having different levels of trigger response makes a huge difference. The 4 extra paddles in the back are great to have shortcuts with certain games.

    Nice upgrade over my series 1. I bought the core because I still had all the accessories from my original. Everything matches and that’s the only difference between the 2. Love the new grips.

    I absolutely love the Microsoft elite series controllers. I have a black one that I use. Also, this white one looks even better. It doesn’t come with the battery or the case but you really don’t need it. I love the way the stick works and it comes with all of the buttons and switches to the other one for the price you cannot go wrong with this I absolutely love the way it feels in your hand. The grip is nice the white does get dirty a little easy but it’s still looks great.

    Best investment for your Xbox if you are intense into gaming and want more configuration. I bought TEMU paddles for the back side and thumb sticks and they work well

    The controller is great. It’s heavier compared to most other controllers, which is something I like. The trigger stops are nice for most games I play. Along with the four buttons on the back you can use to map buttons to.

    These are the only controllers I will buy yes sometimes they have problems but I won't buy anything else they're sturdy they're made with the best components and if you have an issue with it you send it off and they fix it for free or you get a brand new. I really think these are the best controllers on any platform.

    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.

    It’s a great controller for FPS games. The problem is they are very expensive and break easy. This is third one. I bought this because I have all the attachments from my other elite 2. I love the color but don’t like the price. If you have money to burn then buy one but if in a budget save your money.
