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.

    Its a good controller. I've had an elite series 1 in the past that worked well for 2 years till the grips fell off then an elite 2 controller that had issues after a year with the trigger but replacements were easy and this is by far the best controller out there

    This controller was a hard purchase for the money. Let me tell you though it was completely worth it. I have loved it since the first time I used it to play. The ability to tighten the sticks is a very big deal and makes a huge improvement.

    I owned the elite series 1 and this one just feels a lot better than the first one. I've heard a lot of people complain about the dreaded "drifting", but as of yet I haven't had any problems with that or any other problems. Would defiantly recommend this controller.

    Improved fit in hands and less effort to use. Big upgrade from the elite 1. Love the built in case charger as well. I ended up pulling some of the buttons off my elite one and using those just because I have worn them in just right.

    Love the new colors. Same performance/feel as the original Elite 2 but with a little more style. Highly recommend but based on my experience, it’s best to have the TotalTech or geek squad plans to protect it.
