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.

    The elite two is so much better then the first edition, i like the fact that rechargeable battery is already in the controller it self and that it has three different button mapping settings which you can change depending on what game you're playing

    [Employee of bestbuy] My right joystick started to drift after about a month of use :( The weight, paddles, attachments, and accessories are all well made and felt great to hold however!

    Fantastic series 2 core controller

    First off I’ve had a regular series 2 controller when it launched back in November 2019. It was the best off the best. I never used the paddles on the back and rarely used the case it came in. The right bumper button started to not register 3 years later. So i picked this core series 2 up and it has a smaller form factor like the new S/X controllers have and i live that. Slightly smaller than the regular series 2. It is identical to the other minus case, , paddles, and a few different thumb sticks which i really liked. You can get those other accessories later on if you want and save sum money.

    He is in love with this controller, so glad I got it for him. Now he never wants to use a regular controller again. I like how it comes with the hard charging case and that you can change out the buttons. Pricey but worth it in the long run.

    The highest quality control we I've ever purchased. Microsoft outdid their self with everything from the box it comes in. The case to protect it. And the magnetic charger and type c charge port. Feels unbreakable in your grasp.
