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 summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    I like it. Recommend you getting a case to keep all the pieces in check. If controller is dropped all the pieces fly off.

    Love these controllers. The ability to set hot keys with the back toggles and preset up to 3 hot keys for different games/characters in games, comes in handy

    Feels good. I like the weight and the haptics but the stick drift drives me crazy. Brand new and even when customizing the controller through the Xbox it recognizes out of the box there is stick drift.

    Its a great controller, but not much different than the Elite 1... I'm so glad I waited to upgrade until my E1 grips fell off...

    Controller is fantastic! After two years it has worked really well. Little stick drift in the right stick, but nothing that renders it unusable.

    Although we had to return this (button input was lagging on the PC), it feels very good in hand. We also have an PS5 elite controller and using this one in comparison, it's a little heavier but still has amazing grip and the satisfying buttons. Connecting to PC via cord or Bluetooth was easy.

    My son broke the first elite controller. Bought an open box deal to save a lot money. Works flawless.
