    the adjustment button for my left button LB broke in the exact same way yours did. I can still move it but it’s got sharp edges/burrs

    It’s crazy how the elite series 2 is 130 atm and the core is more😭

    I've heard a lot that the original Elite Series 2 has problems with the RB and LB after a year, can you tell me if the CORE is like that too or if its material is different?

      @@Valckorion so I’ve not had the core long enough to say. To be honest, I’ve used it 1 time so far. I do know this, I’ve had my elite version for a few years and never had an issue out of the RB/LB. However my left thumb stick no longer clicks, and the little rubber nub to help adjust trigger travel on the right has fallen off.
      As for differences, the main ones are in the video. The feel and a few text differences

      @WhatsThatTech I'm seriously thinking about buying this controller to play on PC, to be honest I'm thinking about buying the original black version and then the white CORE one, do you think it's worth it?

    • @WhatsThatTech
      @WhatsThatTech  20 днів тому +1

      Being worth it is all user preference. The grip is nice, but to be honest, I’ve never taken advantage of the features it offers. Never adjusted and keep the trigger travel different, never permanently used the paddles.. 99.9% of the time, I used it like a basic Xbox controller. I like the wight and the premium feel. So it’s really whatever you prefer. If you’re perfectly fine with a regular Xbox controller and just want grips, maybe look into getting aftermarket grips for a cheaper Xbox controller.
      Honestly, I just like the premium feel. But could do fine without

      Core feels little more bulky but in all it's the better controller, no play in the thumbsticks like the standard elite series 2 the core more tighter. Feels amazing since the calibration update and also have no issues with LB & RB unlike the standard elite series 2.

      @ yeah, I think the core feels pretty solid. I just don’t like that they left out the rubberized texture from the middle of the controller
