    (I use my Elite controller on PC only) As a PlayStation owner that uses a Scuf controller, the Elite controller is better. Both have the off-set sticks, However, the Scufs back paddles come downward, therefore, only two are easily within quick reach, and the other two are a stretch to reach further inwards. The Elite's 4 back paddles are all placed where your fingers would be naturally, so access to the paddles are much more comfortable by comparison.

    After burning through three elite controllers in as many years thanks to their rubberized grips coming undone, I’m hopeful this new design holds. There is a seam on the inside now, but the stress bubble portion of the outer grips is now solid. I do like the feel of the new triggers better, but my previous ones never gave out so I can only say it’s a minor improvement. Loved my old elites, so if the grips hold up now, I’m sure to love these. So far, really like them.
