This is my favorite controller, the buttons feels amazing, and the grip is just great for comfort.

Sweet controller and color way with the red and black Confused on why the joysticks and directional buttons are magnetic.

It’s a great controller holds a charge for days mine was 3 days before it needed to be charged

Lover the series 2 controller definitely worth the extra money

Nice and very good quality my son loved it for his birthday thanks

This controller is great and it’s easy to set up and use

nice and heavy it does not come with back flippers

The controller is nice but after about a month or two I’m noticing some stick drift. Not the happiest about it but otherwise pretty good.

Paid for next day shipping ended up receiving it 2 days later not even going to bothering looking at the purchase returning it first thing in the morning

It’s my first time buying this controller supposed to be one of the best but left joystick stick I cannot play the worse thing I haven’t use it a lot like three times

The Microsoft Xbox Series Elite Controller feels premium and customizable, with swappable parts and extra features that make gaming smoother. It’s definitely pricier than a regular controller, but the build quality and performance make it worth it for serious gamers.”

One of the Best controllers on the market! My only gripes is that the bumpers seem to go bad after about 3 months of use, and the sticks begin to drift after about a week or so. But besides that, it's the perfect controller! (Mainly get this if you've already got the Series 2 kit with added paddles and everything already.)

This controller is an amazing piece to have for a gamer. This controller is a must if you are a more competitive player in certain games. The unit is premium with a bit of heft to it, so keep that in mind. The back paddles have a nice premium touch, while they conform to your hand without feeling awkward. The device itself has many presets you can configure as well. My last one lasted six years, so yes do not drop it so it can last you.

The elite 2 core is a good controller, but it has a different feeling than the Elite 2 in general. Mind you, I bought the Elite 2 in 2019, and it was completely rubberized, the buttons had a very premium feel to them and such. The core, doesn’t quite have that feeling. The buttons feel good, but not the same as my old controller. That could be because Microsoft lowered their quality for everything, or it’s the because the core is their “budget” version of the elite. Or it could be they just redesigned things in those past 6 years, who knows. Either way, it does the job very well, it just feels a bit different. Mind you, for $130, I expected it to be much better!

The Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller for Xbox Series is a game-changer. The premium feel and comfortable design make it a pleasure to use during long gaming sessions. The quiet operation of the buttons and triggers enhances the experience, adding a subtle touch of quality. Customization is a key feature—interchangeable thumbsticks and a precise D-pad let me tailor the controller to my playstyle, while the adjustable thumbstick tension adds a competitive edge. The wireless connection is flawless, providing lag-free gaming with no connectivity issues. The long-lasting battery is a welcome bonus, and the durable, ergonomic design ensures hours of comfortable play. Plus, the sleek look with its matte finish adds a professional touch to my Xbox setup. Overall, the Elite Series 2 Core is the perfect balance of comfort, customization, and performance—a must-have for any serious gamer.

Feels great and I love the budget option here if you already own another elite controller as the parts can be moved around. However the first Elite 2 controller I had an issue with the bumper RB and now this one I notice sometime the A button will fail to register or register twice which cause a double jump in some instances when I don't mean to. I still like the controller and extra buttons to map some actions, you can even map keyboard keys to it through xbox but I would have expected an elite controller not to have issues that the standard controllers don't have right out the box. 4/5

Very happy with this purchase. The quality is solid, it works exactly as described, and it’s been easy to use right out of the box. Everything feels well-made and dependable, and it’s clearly designed with real users in mind. I’d definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable option, and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from this brand again.

The game controller exceeded my expectations with its ergonomic design and responsive buttons. It delivered an immersive gaming experience, enhancing precision and comfort. The sleek aesthetic and customizable features add a personalized touch. This controller is a game-changer, elevating my gaming sessions to new heights. Highly recommend for any gamer!

These Xbox Series X Elite controllers are totally worth the upgrade. They are so much more responsive, and feel so much better in my hands than the original controllers that come w/ XBOXs. I also love to use this controller with my PC games as well. The only thing I would change is I would make the controller where a Userer could easily clean the buttons if you spilled soda on them or something so they do not stick.

I personally love the controller it's heavier than the other one so it feels better in your hands and the overall quality is better and the thumb sticks and pad are detachable if you choose to replace them with different colors you can.
