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.

    Great controller; it feels sturdy in my hands and has the right amount of weight. The fact that it is customizable is a definite plus. It's worth the price.

    My ten year old grandson is very hard on products and this one is holding up very well. Excellent product that I would purchase in the future and for my other grandchildren.

    At first I thought the 200+ price point was outrageous but actually using the controller I can see why it was necessary. The controller is great, at first the diamond textured grips felt wierd but i got used to it. I have been using this non stop and the best part is I barely have to charge it. I played games for an entire week on one battery charge which to me is pretty outstanding. And the adjustable control sticks just make it all come together. Whatever game I choose to play the sticks are able to support the comfort and usefulness that i look for. I highly recommend this as a pick up.

    This XBOX Elite series 2 core controller pairs well with PCs. I tried using my PS controller and it gave me a hard time. I would definitely buy another one.

    Once I got used to the elite controller I feel like i cant go back to the regular one. My Elite 2 RB started to go bad after 2 years of 20+ hour gameplay per week. Got this one as it is cheaper and I already had the extra assessories. I did also purchase the Best Buy 2 year warrenty just in case. So far everything works great and I checked all functions in the Xbox Assesories app when it arrived. So far I would recommend this.

    Great controller for Xbox games. I use it for all of my games, but bought it especially for Call of Duty since it has several adjustable components. I do not mind skipping the extra joysticks and charging case, so I did not need to spend more money on the more expensive elite controller.

    Great product, quality feel and brings a better gaming experience to the Xbox platform. Purchase this as a gift and can tell you the person who has used it for the last month won’t touch a regular Xbox One controller now lol. This controller has allowed for them to make the needed adjustments to in game play as well as being able to charge the controller (no more battery replacements) and this means no longer using third battery chargers, battery packs and worrying about why they only have 3 - 6 month warranties. This product is genuine Microsoft and is the quality you would expect.

    Great controller. Good grip, awesome haptics. Only problem is that the kit was missing the most basic attachments that make the pro controller what it's supposed to be: the backside paddles, thumb-stick and d-pad replacers, all sold separately.

    Overall great product for long hours of gaming! Feels very sturdy and tough for accidental drops. Has interchangeable parts and excellent performance with no lag in input. Textured grips are very good when playing long hours.

    Great product, however give 4 stars for two reasons. One being that the A button does not register if your clicking towards the bottom of it i find myself in game having to click the button mulit times to get to work and as you know in COD every milisecond counts epsecially with cheaters so ima actually change my 4 star to a 3 as it is so aggrating if it wasnt for how well everything else on it felt id already sent it back...will be sending it back reguarless to see if this problem can be fixed im not paying for defaultly equipment. Another issue i have is the program for controlling mapping for the elite. I dont need 3 profiles at once to have to click between if i just need two i should be able to turn off the defualt and any of the other three customizedable profiles i hate being in a game having to switch deafult and 3 profiles to get to what i need if my game only requires two profiles..like one for walking in an open world then another for fighting...
