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.

    I use this controller for pc gaming and this thing is sweet. Controls are tight without drifting off. Different ways to customize the triggers to get quicker response. Would definitely recommend.

    This thing is a game changer. Having the back paddles for traditional button actions makes the controller competitive. You have the ability to never lift your thumbs off the joysticks. Increases reaction times for all mechanics of your gameplay. Solid build. Long battery life. Full access to detailed settings. You’ll find yourself building complex profiles for each game with this controller. Does so much more than just control your game.

    Great controller and it is totally worth it. The battery last what seems like forever. I rarely have to charge and when I do it’s lightening quickly because of usb-c. If you enjoy gaming and not paying for batteries or silly pack then purchase this controller.

    Great additions but poor reliability

    Great controller! The extra paddles underneath, the ability to shorten the triggers pull is a game changer, and most of all being able to set and button to a different one is a real game changer. Only reason its not 5 stars is the reliability. This is my 3rd one, since the LB and RB buttons can break easily. Thats why i gave it a 4 star

    The Best controller ever made for XBOX ONE ,my son and I bought the first XBOX ELITE SERIES when they first came out , we loved it and we were very satisfied with it ! The controller lasted a very long time , they were a little bit pricey but the more we used them i decided they were worth the money . The series 2 are even alot more better and worth EVERY PENNY I SPENT FOR THEM !

    Perfrct for any gaming purposes and you have customize it to your liking as well by swapping/ mapping out your control stick choices and the extra four buttons on the back of the controller as well, and ofc the controller pack i got does come with the controller sticks and buttons accessories so dont worry.

    I had my eyes on this for a while. Bit the bullet after missing out on Black Friday sales but i love the purchase! Its been helpful on games and Fps. And it feels premium with its padding and grip and extra tactical buttons.

    These controllers bring your gaming to the next level. I bought these for my sons, who play Fortnite against their friends, and they are dominating. It is built incredibly well and has excellent battery life.
