    Works great. Less expensive option if your series 2 breaks and you still have the extras.

    Good controller not great. Had some drift that was easily fixed by tightening the stick. But now have a R1 issue in which it is not responding on the first push which is a problem. It was the first issue I had with the elite 1 controller.

    I had the elite series 1 for 2 years and then it broke. Used it almost everyday and was great. When these came out i was on the dence about getting them since they are so expensive and the old one broke. But once i startes using it again i have no regrets. It does help alot woth shooters adding the short trigger and just the weight and grip feel nice. 100% recommend if price is not an issue

    Beautiful controller, miles better than the ps5 dualshock in my opinion. Premium feel, testured grips, does not slip out the hand when playing for hours, metal buttons, mag lock sticks and great weight.

    The controller feels sturdy, it is responsive, and I like being able to change pieces out to suit my gameplay needs. The battery lasts forever, and the controller has some weight to it.

    Had the original and loved the customization. The 2 series has even more! I really like the 3 different trigger settings, for the pull. The tensioners on the joysticks as I have a heavy hand. Been using it for a bit and I really enjoy it! Haven’t had to charge it up yet so the battery life has been awesome! The price tag is my only complaint about it.

    This controller is definitely for those heavy gamers out there because of the amount of customization you are able to do with it! I was actually a little overwhelmed at first cause I've never had this many options, but holy heck, it's insane! This one is especially excellent for FPS and MMORPG games in my opinion

    Helps my son waste even more time and stay closed up in his room yelling at people even longer. It does seem to be well made. It feels a little heavier and much higher quality than his other controllers.

    I bought another one because I do really like them, but the first one I had started to have that right stick drift after a little less than 2 years, which at least on Ark Survival Evolved made the game unplayable with it making my player look straight at the ground constantly even if just standing still. There are plenty of videos online about this issue, (the spraying air and using alcohol "solutions" on some videos did not work) and I can say that from my experience it is real problem and should be unacceptable for the lofty price; MS should at least have a longer warranty for this particular issue.

    I recently purchased the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations. Design and Build Quality: The controller's build quality is exceptional. Performance: The Elite Series 2 Core delivers outstanding performance. Customization Options: The ability to remap buttons, adjust trigger sensitivity, and customize thumbstick tension gives me a level of control that I haven't experienced with other controllers. Battery Life: The battery life is impressive, lasting through several gaming sessions on a single charge. Conclusion: In conclusion, the Microsoft Elite Series 2 Core Wireless Controller is a premium gaming accessory worth every penny.

    Love it and hate it. Physically it's incredible looking and feeling -- just what you would want out of a $200 controller. Would give 5 stars, except that out of the box my A button was less responsive than X Y B, and my right trigger developed a crunching / squeaking noise... which is not cool for a $200 controller. Bestbuy product page states you are buying a Model:FST-00008 version of the controller, and yet I received a Model:FST-00001. So... not sure why that was either, and thus I have to give 3 stars. If you can get one without any issues, or you don't care about the issues I mentioned, then don't hesitate on buying one. Product received via shipping on January 30th, 2021.

    This is the third controller that I bought for my Xbox. It was expensive compared to the other two, but it is actually the best thus far. Very comfortable and the battery life is much better, lasting almost 16 hours. The fact that you can charge it while inside the case is a plus. I highly recommend this controller.
