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.

    No major complaints about controller cept wish the button inputs where a bit better, especially at the price, but it was my best option to get a cross pad instead of the default Xbox dpad. Best Buy did great though by price matching the Amazon price, so 5 stars to them.
