    I had an Elite Series 2 for over a year. Many buttons failed. Wanting to keep the high end controller experience continue, i opted for the Core. Bery peased. Great feel. A few button misses which are to be expected with an Elite. Its common but not a big deal.

    The controller feels so nice to play on especially with the grips on the controller and its clean design. I don’t have to worry about battery life as much because charging Is such a breeze and it’s lasts for a long while.

    This one of the best controllers on the market. Well worth the price tag of $180 added with the Microsoft wireless adapter for $25. I recently got into gaming on the PC and was previously using a standard Xbox one controller. the difference between the standard and the elite is night and day. More advanced options, slightly heavier, comfortable grips, switchable parts, and a battery life that will last your for a couple of days on a full charge. No complaints yet.

    Love this controller. This is one feels very good compared to the black series 2. I can use on my gaming PC an my series x. The only thing is it just don’t come with other accessories. But that’s why the price is just right.

    This thing is a game changer. Extremely tight gameplay. The hair trigger option is very cool and the buttons just feel higher quality. It’s a little heavier than a normal controller abut feels great in your hands. The buttons underneath take some time to get used to but are all fully customizable. It comes with a very cool charging/ travel case which is great. I would recommend this to any serious gamer. Huge improvement over my standard controller.

    A year later… still world perfectly. Honestly , there isn’t much to say about it. I love it, the settings are saved across the board Whether I’m using the controller for my Xbox, pc or Used for my phone - it saves the settings for all the games I want to use it for under its profile. Super easy to get used to, and feels amazing. 10/10

    I love this controller & i love the warranty that best buy offers for it. I only give 4 stars because of little things ive noticed. They do eventually get stick drift but again warranty, & then theres the issue ive had with 3 in a row of the rubber grip starts to peel up after a little while. Another personal gripe is i have big hands & it wouod be nice if the spacing for the paddles was better. It is very difficult to use all 4 with larger hands. Atleast in my experience.

    I didn’t think I noticed much of a difference at first until I forgot to charge this controller, using my old controller felt like using a fisher price toy. This is such nice quality, the charge lasts so long, and it’s heavy in a good way. Weighty.

    Excellent grip, customizable via hardware and software which is very unique and helpful, various options for sticks and pads and triggers, and the warranty is by far the best warranty I have ever received. Would HIGHLY recommend for PC or XBOX gaming

    Expensive but fun addition to my console.

    The first thing I noticed was the heft of the controller. This thing is rock solid. I will say, playing with all four paddles didn’t let me get as good a grip as I wanted, so I only play with the top two (I have large hands and the lower ones got in the way), but I enjoy the advantage of being able to keep my thumb planted on the right stick. There is slight drift in the right stick out of the box and adjusting the stick tension did not fix it. That being said, it is so slight it’s so far only registered when looking at the map in Warzone. It otherwise has not affected my play. The short-throw trigger setting is great for any repeated with the trigger motion (e.g., semi-auto shooting). The paddles let me crouch and jump while aiming in CoD like the PC players, replace my stick presses for added finesse in NHL, and make some fun paddle shifters in Forza. Definitely a fun addition to my One X and happy to know it is forward compatible for the transition to the Series X. If you have the money to burn, it’s a fun addition, but not a necessity.
