    Nice controller, not worth upgrade from series 1

    The build quality of this controller is solid, there are a few quality of life improvements added such as rechargeable battery, better grips and a button to adjust the profile that's in use (instead of a switch). If you're looking for a nice Xbox/PC controller this is a solid buy, if you have a Series 1 controller I wouldn't recommend the upgrade unless you get this on sale.

    Love everything about it -- except the new rubber padding that was extended over the handles. My old Elite controller they gripped really well; the new material feels waxy and slippery. Other than that, there's nothing to complain about. Comes with rechargeable battery and recharges by putting back in the case. Adjustable joystick tension, better paddle controls, and a host of other improvements make this the best conrtoller out there. If only it felt "grippier'....
