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.

    Good feel and solid build. So far no problems. Like the adjustable triggers. Will keep an eye for stick drift. Triggers are great because they can be tightened down. D pad feels odd being multi-direction. Overall pretty good. A bit overpriced tho.

    Quite a nice sturdy feeling controller. It weighs quite a bit more than a normal Xbox controller as it has a built in battery and is just made of heavier stuff. I wish the built in battery was removable as I play wired. All in all if a heavy controller doesn’t bother you I would get it. Swing for the complete set if you can core is nice but having all the extras would complete it.

    Excellent so far just make sure you buy the charger because it didn’t come with it. Actually it had a cord with a USB that plugs into the Xbox but that never worked so I had to buy a secondhand one on eBay. The charge lasts like one week playing every day so that’s good and it’s a very it feels very heavy duty like it’ll last. It’s expensive tho.

    While there may be some questions about the price of this item, there are a few things that warrant consideration. One of the main reasons I chose this item (along with the obvious controller itself) is because I wanted a case for my controller as well. The controller itself is an improvement over the regular Xbox model, with the addition of the back paddles, but also has a built in rechargeable battery and 2 additional pairs of thumbstick options to swap out. Add all those accessories up and the price may still be a bit on the high side, but I find it worth it. Bottom line, it won't make you a better gamer, but it DID improve MY game with the longer right thumb stick and easier back paddles for some games, and I like that I can leave this in the case and plug the charging cable directly in without unzipping it. I am more than happy with this.

    I used my Elite Series 1 for years and wore it out, even changed it's housing/buttons over time, still works to this day. Loved every minute of it, and the successor is an even more reliable move forward. I love the case/charger combo, makes putting down my controller and always having battery so much better. Less to think about. Super responsive controls and the customizabilty is extremmely flexible

    Great controller for mapping tasks on the paddles. Makes gaming extremely easier. FPS games is the best with this controller. If set up right you never have to move your thumbs off the analog sticks.

    This controller is perfect for anyone who already has an elite series 2 controller and is looking to replace their old one. You can use the old attachments on this new one and and it feels literally the same. So far no issue and price is fair compared to the normal elite series 2 controller.

    I thought it came with the pieces and stuff but it didn’t. That’s my fault for not reading it correctly lol. Good product overall tho. I’m not a big time gamer and I’m glad this one is fairly simple to use. It definitely has helped me improve my firing rate.
