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.

    Amazing controller helps a lot since you don’t have to move your fingers off your joy stick to press a b x y or anything on your d pad your also able to program the back pedals to many controllers and the multiple different joysticks help with aim and other things

  • Bad idea to buy open box

    I purchased one "Open Box - Excellent". It was extremely dirty, it had food crumbs, dirt and grime stuck in every nook and cranny. It had scratches, and a damaged cord. It did not have the original packaging, overall it was fair at the most. Fortunately I was able to gather a little extra cash and just exchange it for a brand new one. I would recommend to never purchase anything open box. The brand new one is top notch. Definitely worth the 5 stars
