Xbox’sEliteSeries 2 controllers are a great pick for PC and Xbox consoles alike, but they’re also pretty darn expensive. Thankfully, you can pick up the cheaper Core version for significantly less money, especially if it’s on sale - which is the situation right now! Amazon US are selling the Elite Series 2 Core in white for $99, a solid reduction from its usual price of $130.

The main benefit, then, is that you get a USB-C rechargeable controller in a nifty two-tone design with higher-quality components than the standard controller, including an eight-way d-pad, clicky face buttons and grippy handles.
Overall, the increase in build quality and tacility justifies the Elite being double the price of a standard controller ($49), especially if you pick up some cheaper paddles and other components down the line to add that extra functionality for way less than the standard Elite Series 2 ($140).
