    Not much difference between the first gen controller but has some very good upgrades, stick tension increase and decrease as well as better grips that doesn't peel off but never had this issue on my original 1st gen. This controller seems to have a better latency as well as a more aggressive trigger stops. Love this controller and feel this is the best on the market as of right now.

    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.
