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.

    Nice product. Feels really solid. Battery life is really good. However it is just a controller like the rest of them. If tou are not intending on using paddles than buyin a reular controller at more than half the cost makes more sense.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Good feel and solid build. So far no problems. Like the adjustable triggers. Will keep an eye for stick drift. Triggers are great because they can be tightened down. D pad feels odd being multi-direction. Overall pretty good. A bit overpriced tho.
