Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with the product's great overall performance, impressive battery life, and extensive customization options, along with its comfortable feel and good weight. However, a significant concern among users is the prevalence of stick drift and issues with button quality, particularly with the bumpers and A button. The price is also a point of hesitation for some.

    Definitely an improvement from the black series 2 ones. They tried to right their wrongs with these white, red and blue ones (America!) . They are built sturdier i feel. And if you had the black one before with the charger base and all the paddles and such, just switch the paddles over to this core controller because it doesn't come with any of that. To me it was a no brainer . Definitely xbox best controller so far. The razer wolverine is nice, but the paddles are in a very awkward spot. This elite series 2 is where it's at, better than the original runs in black.

    Much Better than the TB stealth Ultra

    I swapped from the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra controller, and haven’t regretted it a bit. My only complaint is that I lost my capture button because it was replaced with the profile swap button, and I have no way to remap it. But the ability to use one of the paddles as a function key, allowing the other buttons to have dual uses, depending on if the function button is pressed or not, made it not that big of a deal.

    Heavy duty, way better than the normal controller. Feels a lot more premium, should come with every xbox. A little expensive though.

    After many months (maybe years) of my brother telling me to get this I got to say, nope...no really, controller feels amazing, not $180+ dollars amazing tho, yes...mapping, customizing, interchangeable d-pads and joysticks, ja da ja da...still not be able to macro just doesn't do it for me, for example: if you want to map a L1+R1 in one button (paddle in my case) you can't do it, while cheaper options (like 8bitdo pro2 controller) can...I just can't fathom the price tag for just the way the controller feels...sorry, it's a no for me.

    Nice feeling controller. Feels very sturdy. Comes with a charging dock and the ability to switch between Bluetooth for PC and then back to Xbox. Only gets 2 stars as the left bumper stopped working within about a week of purchase. Seems to be a common problem with this controller.
