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.

    Great controller, love everything about it. Would definitely recommend to the homies. DO NOT BUY THE SCUF THUMBSTICKS AND PADDLES. THEY ARE NOT WORTH $20.

    So far the controller performs very well. It has a good feel to it while playing. It is replacing a Series 1 Elite controller. So far I do like it better.

    An improvement over the previous model which I wore into the ground. Wish the button sensitivity were more configurable though. Fantastic battery life.

    I can not express how convenient this controller is. How easy it is to use and change the physical attributes on the fly. Programming the remaps within a separate application is not ideal; however one can setup multiple profiles and change the color of the power button to indicate which profile goes with which button layout. It's a bit heavy; but overall, Microsoft killed it with this one! Worth every penny.
