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.

    This is really an elite controller. Very well built and is easy to use. This is cheaper than a custom controller and has every feature that a custom one has. XBox did an excellent job with this.

    The paddles can be a bit stiff, but if you’re trying to take your FPS play to the next level or just looking for a better built controller, this one fits the bill. The top two paddles can be especially stiff. The rest of the controller and it’s features are very nice and you can edit the settings and presets of the controller very quickly while in-game.

    I purchased for one of my grandkids. He really likes this model but I think we bought a defective one. The buttons get stuck so unfortunately we are returning it for another.
