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 a very solid controller. Perfect for casual gaming - great grip, good sensitivity. You need something better for competitive gaming. For the price, I would go with a different controller.

    I didnt realize this controller didnt come with the back paddles however its a great controller that works w my pc and xbox with no issues. So far the battery seems strong enough to handle decent sessions w.o dying or needing plugging in

    Great controller for the money very easy to use use.The only thing I didn't like was.The analog sticks and the directional pad have pieces that don't snap real tight and they fall off easily but if you pay attention to that it's a great controller

    Simplicity is one of the keys. I had two other brands over the last decade and a half. This one isn’t as tiresome to use. It’s also VERY responsive. A great choice.

    Great controller. The trigger hardstops are my favorite part of the controller. Bumpers can show wear quickly tho in my opinion

    Button mapping customization is awesome, along with the swipable analog stick. The feel of the controller is amazing with back grips and adjustable triggers. Astounding gaming controller.

    We got this to replace an elite controller that our kids dropped. This is every bit worth the money if you like to gaming. It takes a moment to get use to the paddles but once you do there’s no going back. Worth the money. Having the ability to select different settings for different games and have them programmed is epic!

    Well constructed, feels premium. Still not sure what to do with the back pedals, but all the buttons function without fuss like other xbox controllers xan sometimes. Would be a 5-star if not for the high cost. If you want the controller of your dreams and can afford it, then it's a great pickup. Otherwise try to wait for a sale

    Great controller but one or two flaws

    Love the custimization options but the official microsoft app that goes along with it needs a little work. Also my left thumb stick constantly unscrews itself for some reason. Other thing is i have maybe slightly above average hand size but certainly not huge. Yet when you get some paddles and install those they constantly get in the way of your grip. Even without them the controller feels small. I will need to buy a grip sleeve or something. Other than those 3 things i dont have any problems with the controller itself. I would say overall 2 of my complaints like the app and grips are just personal issues that might be because of my own preference. The 3rd which is the left thumb stick unscrewint itself and feeling like it gets stuck sometimes i would say is manufacturer error or something.
