Your best bet is going to be the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2. But if that's a little too much for your budget, there's always a great alternative. The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 Core is an excellent pick. It's a very similar controller that costs much less than the Elite version. If you're fine with losing the additional accessories the more expensive controller comes with, the Core option is a no-brainer.
Right now, the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 Core is on sale for its lowest price ever at Amazon. It's available for just $99, which is $30.99 off its normal price of $129.99. That's a savings of 24%. This is the cheapest the controller has been since dropping to $108.99 in April, earlier this year.
The Elite Core controller is a bit pricier than standard Xbox controllers and only comes in two colors, but it's perfect for hardcore players. With so many games out right now like Starfield and the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1, you'll want to be at your best. This gamepad offers adjustable-tension thumbsticks, short hair trigger locks, rubberized grip, and a whopping 40-hour battery life per charge.
You won't get all the extras the more expensive Elite controller brings, like a swappable D-pad, thumbsticks, and other goodies, but you won't miss them at this price. If you or someone you know spends a good amount of time on their Xbox or has a worn-out pack-in controller from their first Xbox Series X or Series S buy, get thee to Amazon.
