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.

    Got this for my husband as an early Christmas gift, and he loves it! He says it makes playing shooting games wayyy easier. I love that it is rechargeable too. It has already saved us so much money not having to buy so many batteries!

    It's an amazing controller, but it is expensive.

    I game primarily on my pc, but I also primarily use a controller. I know, blasphemous. But for me using a controller is the most comfortable gaming experience. This is the king of controllers. Peak controller. No comparison. It's plug in (or wirelessly connect) and play. 99% of games support it. There really hasn't been a single flaw that I've run into. It feels fantastic and the build quality is something you'd expect a $180 controller to have. Obviously if you have $180 to spend on a controller, there really isn't too much competition, and rightfully so, as this thing has reached peak controller. I recommend it, but really only if you want the best of what controllers have to offer, and can afford it.

    Very nice! I was skeptical at first about letting my child buy another controller, but he has been happy and it seems like a good purchase.

    I have been wanting to buy this item for awhile, but it kept on selling out. Now, I know why, this controller is the best ever and gives you the ability to play games in so many capacities. One of my favorite purchases ever!!!!

    Amazing for my Windows gaming PC. Sturdy, easy to charge, and fully customizable control is great for all of my gaming needs. Vibration can get a little out of control, but you can adjust to your liking.

    This is simply the best controller in gaming, and the quality is much improved over the original version of the controller. I think Xbox has a gem of a product and will continue to innovate and improve.
