    I’ve had 2 scuff controllers and I feel like the Xbox series controller is a better pick hands down, you get the same customizable controls if not better. Also it’s for a better price

    Excellent controller. Love the interchangeable sticks and the adjustable vibration and trigger! The texture of the grip area is incredible. The price is high, but totally worth everything that comes with it.

    This is my second Elite 2 controller and I can say I won’t go back to a normal controller any time soon. The versatility and customization with the button mapping is amazing with the addition of the back paddles makes playing easier.
