The best controller for Xbox Series X|S
We’re past Cyber Monday, but Walmart is still pushing out brand new gaming deals for December. Right now, you can pick up the professional-grade Xbox Series X Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller for only $124.00 after a 30% off instant discount. That’s a great deal for the original Elite Series 2 controller that includes the component pack. The newer Elite Series 2 Core controllers in White, Blue, and Red do not include the component pack and they normally retail for $140. The component pack itself retails for $59.99.

Includes component pack
The Xbox Elite Series 2 Core controller features better build quality and lots more customizability than the stock controller that comes with the Xbox Series X console. Some of the more significant pro gaming features include adjustable-tension thumbsticks, wrap-around rubberized grip, and shorter hair trigger locks. The component pack, which is bundled with this controller, includes an extra sets of paddles, thumbsticks, D-pad, and case.
I rarely see this version of the Elite Series controller for sale. The versions without the component packs are commonly sold for a lesser price, but one of the biggest advantages of getting this controller over the standard controller is the customizability. Without those extra accessories to modify the controller to your liking, there’s less of a reason to spend so much more when a regular Xbox controller can be often be found for under $50.
