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.

    If you’re still using one of those $50 ish controllers save your money for this thing. Best controller I’ve ever owned. The precision is incredible. Feels like a top shelf piece of medical or military gear more than a video game controller.

    The controller has an amazing feel to it. I really enjoy using this controller until I realized that the ABXY buttons need to be fully bottomed out to work. When playing a game like Rocket League you can find yourself needed to press a button twice to get it to work, but in a fast game like that it is already too late.

    Red is my favorite color, When this was on sale I had to buy it. I'm glad they make these without all the other accessories and cheaper because I already had a broken controller and didn't need all the extras!

    This is by far the best control I’ve ever owned.! A lot of people have negative reviews or mixed reviews about this so far I haven’t had any problems but that’s why I bought the warranty. But by far it’s the best I’ve ever had!

    Best feeling controller there is. Make sure you get the accessory app to map the buttons. Only complaint is that you need the adapter for it work well wirelessly.

    Works good, I like all the features and abilities with it but they could work on the quality a little bit more, seems like the buttons aren’t as responsive as they should.
