    Coming from a 2080 super I'm a little surprised, I thought it was going to be much more impressive. The biggest difference I see is in the frame rate which is obviously a big deal.

    Started off great super responsive pedals, triggers and smooth feeling on sticks. But after about 5 hours of gameplay it started having input issues. Itd have stick occasionally input the direction opposite i moved it, prolong button inputs from taps to 3-4 second holds randomly, and randomly input bumper triggers. This happened accross mutliple controller profiles, games and even after reinstalling drivers. Was very disappointed as its unusable now.

    I had an old original Elite 2 so I just use the knobs and D pad from that set. It does feel a bit different than my old one but I think it's just the breaking in period. I am used to it now and I love it as much as my original.

    Worked well while it lasted. I only play rocket league on pc with this controller and legitimately I’ve always taken care of my stuff but these controllers break probably within a year on average for most. My thumb sticks are the only reason I’m now on my 4th controller and it’s out of hand. But while it works it’s great!

    Overall a really good controller. The only downside is it is USB rechargeable instead of batteries (my preference). I also does not have a screen shot button
