    This is better than the Series 1 but the bumpers are still the part that breaks. This is already my second one.

    I got this and their headphones at about the same time thinking they would be easy to link and use together. Nope! Returned the headphones. I kept this because I think/hope that I can make some adjustments once I sit down and figure how to do that. Still, for my large hands the paddles are too long, as in the way, too easy to hit accidentally. They feel like a good solid build. Aside for the paddles, it seems to be a good controller. I would recommend, but with these concerns.

    The Core controller is good enough for the price. I definitely would buy the accessories but not necessary, just wanted to get an extra one so my son and I can play together.
