There's less than a week left before Christmas, but Best Buy is still pushing out more gaming deals for December. Right now, you can pick up the professional-grade Xbox Series X Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller for only $119.99 after a 33% off instant discount. Better yet, you can still get it delivered by 12/25. That's a great deal for the original Elite Series 2 controller that includes the component pack, unlike the Elite Series "Core" controllers. The component pack retails for $60.
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.
The original Xbox Elite Series 2 controller is rarely discounted. I usually see more deals on the Elite Series "Core" models, which don't include the component pack. However, one of the biggest advantages of getting this controller over the standard controller is the customizability. Without those extra accessories in the component pack to modify the controller to your liking, there's less of a reason to spend so much more than the already excellent non-Elite controller.
