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.

    The ability to adjust the joy stick tension and travel length for the trigger levers is a win win for me.

    I bought this for my nephew for Christmas. He absolutely loved it. It comes with case and a charger. You can set up the charger in the case for charging while not in use. You can change out the pads and change the tension on the triggers. Make this controller adapt to you instead of you adapting to the controller. Very much worth every penny!!!

    My favorite controller with extras this go around the rubber didnt fall off and only one paddle broke after intensive use for 1-2 years. Easy to change layout and has 3 saved controller schemes so less assigning and more playing.

    Would have preferred removable, compatible battery for swapping out charged units over installed rechargeable battery but unit is more svelte as a result, pleasure in the hands. Bluetooth at last, a welcome addition. Prefer to use keyboard but carpel-tunnel wrists and arthritic joints compel using a controller. The Elite had been my go-to until this upgrade.

    Nearly as good as the previous gen. I like how you can have more than 2 profiles (3 loaded at any time) but the controller is narrow than the previous gen one and, as such, the upper paddles require you to curve your fingers to access them.
