Xbox One Elite Wireless Controller- Core White

It is Series 2 to be clear. I was afraid it wasn't.As described, it comes with an internal chargeable battery.Most important to setup Xbox Accessories from Microsoft Store to configure and update the controller.

Great quality, weight, finishing.Smooth control. Looks and play like fire. Love it.

Everything great about the regular Elite 2 controller but at a much friendlier entry point.Costs are down due to omission of back paddles, additional sticks & carrying case, but that's the only thing different between the 2 models (except for the much-better-looking two-tone color finish on the Core) - it even has the 3-zone trigger adjustment options like the Elite 2.All other software based tweaks that you can do with the Elite 2, you can adjust with the Core on the Xbox controller app. So you're not really missing any major features.You can purchase all the additional bells & whistles later on; just wait for a discount on those ;-)Alternatively, there are cheaper good quality third-party vendors (Scuff) who provide back paddles & cases too.The Core does come with the stick tension adjuster in the box, so you can tweak that to your liking.Built-in battery means that you no longer have to keep changing AA batteries on low charge, and the battery life is just as good (if not more).Works seamlessly with Xbox One & Xbox Series consoles as well as with PC.Highly recommended for anyone interested in getting a better controller than the one that comes with your Xbox console

Received with very bad condition left stick that has weird responses and moves. Not recommended at all

very nice and original

The best controller I’ve ever had

As described

Let's start off with the good points. Great grip, feels premium quality, adjustable triggers is a good touch, and all around feels sturdy.However. Microsoft have cheaped out as usual. Firstly, it doesn't include the paddles. Fair enough but come on, wouldn't cost them $1 to add them to an already expensive controller.Secondly, my buttons can stick. This is apparently happening to a lot of others too. For instance the y button and right shoulder button do this. It's annoying when switching weapons or cycling inventory. Can't fix it either.Thirdly, the PC USB dongle doesn't work with it correctly, you have to unplug and replug it in. It doesn't pair with the xbox accessories app very well either. Bluetooth is an option? Sure but add 20ms ping onto your reaction time.Fourthly, range. It's range sucks. Unless you're sat in front of the PC or Xbox, it's going to cut out and act up intermittently.Fifthly, the total lack of support online for any of these issues is abysmal. Microsoft do not care.Conclusion. Just buy a generation 1 elite controller. Does the same trick. It's a real shame too. I like the potential.
