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.

    A little heavy but the buttons give me zero issues. No stick drift after a year and I usually destroy my controllers after a couple months

    Always love these controllers sadly this is my third one over time the left thumb stick seems to never recenter completely it's not that noticeable until you're playing a game that requires precision and this is also the second controller where the right bumper also messed up and sometimes doesn't work.

    Fantastic product, I use it every single day and have had absolutely zero problems with controller updates, movement on screen, and connectivity. The customization of the controller is fantastic and the price is well worth the gaming experience. As an added bonus, the 2 year warranty Best Buy provides for this product is the exact reason I chose to shop with Best Buy in the first place. 10/10

    Caught this while on sale and it's still holding up strong after a few months. Well worth picking up if you can catch it on sale. No stick drift yet, so fingers crossed.

    Great controller with precise handling and comfortable grip. I bought it to replace an older Elite controller, so I already had the compatible additional components. It was very easy to attach the additional peripherals from my older Elite controller since this is the same - just without the components included. My older controller lasted for about 3 years with heavy use, so I'm expecting this one to be pretty durable as well. Whether you need a regular, just sturdier Xbox controller of if you want to replace an older Elite controller, then this is just right. Plus, you have the option to buy the additional components/peripherals later.
