    Upgrade from an elite one controller. Feels solid and well made, but so did the elite one until it fell apart.

    I’m going to give my honest opinion on this controller. I thought it would be better than the first series but it has the same issue. It starts wearing down and the buttons and sticks won’t work anymore. I recommend anyone who buys this please pay for the warranty it will save you money later. I did purchase warranty and will be refunding it.

    This co controller is a improvement over the first elite in every way except. It feels a bit smaller, and tends to dig into your palms a bit more.

    This controller is great for playing things like shooters where tracking and trigger speed are important, but if you're more of a casual player then it may be a bit overkill.

    Beats the elite 1 hands down. Smaller back triggers and the bumpers are separate buttons now. The number one reason got it was for the joystick tention and boy was it worth it.
