    Better than the first iteration in many ways but still has its issues. Feels great in hand and the rechargeable battery is a must have past due added touch that the controller badly needed! I had immediate issues with my right bumper though the bumper buttons break very easily and are poorly made. I was really surprised how fast the bumpers gave out and I feel like it will happen again soon

    Got this due to 1st gen elite controller breaking again. Had few problems with the first gen and seems Xbox fixed most of those problems with this second gen. Seems like the paddles are smaller then first gen elite and and the third trigger stop seems like it turns the trigger into a button with the limited rage of motion, which is probably going to take some time to get used to. Favorite upgrade from the first gen to second has to be the analog resistance control. Thought the resistance function wouldn’t be used be definitely find it useful. Would definitely recommend as long as it holds up longer then the first gen elite controller.

    Definitely like that it has color. Needs better grip for big hands and maybe some more button for extra customization/Personel. Over all it’s good though.
