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.

    Pretty good controller, better option for a replacement of the $179 version since I’ve gone through 2 of those already; this one has lasted a while already.

    I got this controller on the day it came out and since then it has been holding up very well, I love the battery life much better than last year dont have to charge as often, the remapping of the buttons and creating profile for certain games has made me a much more aggressive and faster gamer.

    Everything about this controller is awesome, unless of course you are me and the pads on the back are sensitive to you squeezing the controller from anxiety. Haha. Go get it if you can hold your controller lightly

    The customization this controller allows will take your gaming to the next level. The build quality makes it feel like it should cost much more than it does and I am still finding new ways to make it my own after several months. Don’t miss out!

    Love everything about this controller, do wish could have more controller over program two or three commands to one trigger or quick access to start a recording, but no complaints I love the feel and weight so much I unfortunately hate playing with a regular controller.
