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.

    Fantastic controller! This is the best controller for any console gamer wanting to have an edge or compete with PC players. The build is solid. It looks and feels great. Battery life is great. There are plenty of different options to configure to make the controller yours or to give you the right tools for each different game you might play.

    Amazing controller great software but will take long time to get used to for your hand from using a normal controller. Also make sure to check all the buttons work and there’s no stick drift these controllers have a bad history of it right out the box.

    So far so good the controller feels like a premium accessory, the price tag is high and some people might find the buttons on the back annoying but the beauty of this controller is that you can customize it to your liking and however you feel it the best way to play. The only thing I wish this controller had that is missing is the share button the new one has.

    Its a great controller, feels good in your hands. Long battery life, a great many accessories. But I don't feel $180 price tag warrants. This should sell for what rival controllers go for or cheaper $125-150. Could use a little more quality components to hit that $180 mark.

    This one makes you reevaluate how you’ve been playing, you have so much more control in the joysticks and buttons and trigger leveling infreases your action ratio; cery satisfied how customizable is

    I bought this controller when I was in need of one, it was worth the purchase. The controller feels nice in the hands and the buttons are great. I can customize my controller and it’s settings and layout which is so useful.
