While this is still an awesome controller, and far superior to the with console controllers, I can't help but think I may have been better off getting a new first edition elite controller. My series 1 still works, but the grips have almost all begun to peel off, and I figured it was time. The old controller had more sensitive paddles, and the home button actually pressed in; the new one has clunkier textile feedback in the paddles, and the home button is a little TOO discreet; almost can't tell if I'm pressing it if not looking at the controller. As well as that, the triggers are a LOT louder; there's a definitive clicking with each fire. Some people might consider this an improvement, but for those around me having to listen to it, I don't. I really thought they may have made this one lighter, as the weight and the grip peeling is the only critique I'd have for the first edition, however there's only about a ten gram difference. I'm sure as I get used to it, these things will improve, but so far (a week or so in) I'm a touch disappointed. In the grand scheme of things, though; an incredible device. I loved my first elite controller, and I love this one too. Makes playing so much smoother and faster; as well as that it helps my wrists as I'm not twisting them around so much.
