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.

    This is a must have for my x series. Hard to go back to a regular controller. The quality is excellent, and definitely better than the first generation.

    Bought this to replace the series 1 Elite controller. Happy with it so far. Hopeful it doesn't have the issues the 1st series had with stick drift and the rubber grips pealing off.

    The controller is awesome when it works. Unfortunately, the left trigger went bad out of nowhere. I was losing fights in call of duty because I would aim down sights and then it would switch back to hip fire while I held it down. Microsoft is never fixing the elite 2. I’m going to wait until they release an Elite 3.

    Love this controller!! Overall it works great and feels good in the hands for long hours of playing. If you are a heavy gamer I would recommend purchasing the warranty with Best Buy.

    Very good upgrade from the first one. The removable charging dock from carrying case is a very nice feature you can either leave it in the case or take it out, very nice feel to the controller as well
