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.

    The Elite Series 2 is probably the best controller I’ve ever had. However, the one big complaint I have about it is that the D-pad feels very loose. I guess it’s because it’s just the nature of it being an interchangeable part, but the D-pad should feel more high quality than it is for the price of the controller.

    First one I picked up was missing all of the accessories and was filthy. Returned it and grabbed a different one. Second one was in near perfect condition. Be careful with the open box products.

    OMG!!! The features of this controller are like non I've seen. I love the hair trigger settings (Very useful in COD) and the ability to map the x-y-b-a buttons to paddles under the controller are outstanding. The different thumbsticks help with customization and there are three different sensitivity settings on the thumbsticks. I scoffed at spending this kind of money on a controller, but worth every penny. Even for a part time gamer....
