    Improvement over the series 1

    The grips feel way better and it feels like it’s just better made than the previous series. The battery life has been amazing. I’m a streamer and play a good amount but so far this controller has been nothing but great. I wish it came with 2 of the tall thumbsticks instead of 1 and the paddles on the back are smaller than the series one but luckily I just transferred the larger paddles over since I had the series one. Thumbsticks however are a different size attachment so you can’t transfer those over. Like I Said so far the controller seems like a big improvement but we’ll see how the durability holds up and I wish they gave us another large thumbsticks and the paddles were slightly bigger.

    Everything is is adjustable. Trigger throw, stick tension and height, and paddles if you want them. This controller has been the answer to every complaint I’ve ever had about controllers since thumbsticks were invented. Seriously though, the Elite Controller has been a welcome addition to my gaming rigs. Not only do I use it with my XBox One, but it connects instantly with my PC to play the games that are better played with a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard. As far as durability goes- that remains to be seen. No drifting issues yet…

    Quick, Responsiveness missing in previous models, honestly a premium controller, can't wait to see how the hall effect sticks handle 1,000 hrs of gameplay then I'll update my review.

    Bought first release and got stuck drift horribly. But Microsoft sent me a new controller after some long phone calls and checking on updates. But my 2nd controller is working as intended.
