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.

    Awesome controller! You can adjust the sensitivity on thumbsticks and makes it so much more responsive. I still think its too expensive but its a great controller. Solid! Good quality

    Ever since being able to afford one, I have always used these. The reason for the four-star is that I know in six-seven months I will need top use the warranty support for stick drift or a broken bumper. The reason why not three or lower, I have total rewards and BestBuy is good with replacement controllers.

    These remotes are amazing . I like that , they have a little weight to them and you can change out the toggle switches to pads or flat plates . Great job on these.

    The buttons are smooth and work great. The grip of the remote is comfortable for my small hands and my fiances big hands. I am excited to look at the interchangable parts.

    I had 2 of the regular xbox wireless controllers... they served their time & purpose. BUT when you open the packaging up and see/feel this bad boy....oh my what an upgrade. The case/charging station setup is pure genius. Also you Can remove the charging base from the case.... But why? The cable goes in through the to of the closed case and your good....chargin

    Reliable sturdy controller. I have heard complaints about stick drift, but the 2 I have had didn't have any. Also, if you do have stick drift, you can always adjust it in the device settings on the Xbox. I tend to set the paddles to the joystick clicks as it seems more natural to click things this way. I have to admit, it is a luxury item, but if you play a lot, it is worth it.

    I like the idea of a customizable controller, but this feels out of my league honestly. A+ idea with C execution unfortunately. A controller with this price has to be perfect. It really wanted to like this.

    Love this controller, use it on the Xbox but now just Use it to play some PC Games with it where it doesn’t make a difference to use keyboard and mouse and or use it as a hybrid setup with keyboard & mouse. Has a high quality feel to it, extra controller functions, no regrets purchasing this controller. We have 2 of these controllers, both work like new even with heavy use,
