    I had the original elite and that controller was my absolute favorite of all time so hopefully this one serves me just as well. The back paddles are by far the best ergonomically and the added charging dock is a nice addition over the original as well as the added trigger step and new color scheme. I literally can't go back to regular controllers anymore.
