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.

    Extra mappable buttons are always a plus but they get worn down easily. Thumb sticks always felt a little too loose for my liking even with adjustments. Replaced with plan roughly every 9 months to a year. Thankfully I bought the plan.

    The build quality of this controller is solid, there are a few quality of life improvements added such as rechargeable battery, better grips and a button to adjust the profile that's in use (instead of a switch). If you're looking for a nice Xbox/PC controller this is a solid buy, if you have a Series 1 controller I wouldn't recommend the upgrade unless you get this on sale.
