The duelshock 3 has the longest battery life when compared to duelshock 4 and duelsense

Dualshock 4 also has a giant pointless light bar. Nothing compares to Xbox controllers though. I go a month or two without charging my Elite Series 2. The Dualshock 3 lasts ok. It just depends on how old your battery is. I think it's rather easy to replace too.

Is gamesir g7 se good ?

I went from the xbox elite series 2 controller (consistently a new issue every 2-3months) to the gamesir g7 se. It took a week or so to get used to but now after almost a month i can confidently say it's an upgrade despite being less than a third of the elite roller price. I cant tell you long term,

How reliable is the Xbox Elite Series 2 in 2026?

I do hope Xbox announces a series 3. But I gotta say the controller is pretty good. I’ve done a lot of research on different thumb-stick technologies… and they all have disadvantages. The question is not just what do want from your controller, but what can you live without. For example, Hall Effect

how to fix and prevent 'peeling' on xbox elite 2 controller?

You can try to peal it up and put a spot of crazy glue but, truth, I ran into the same issue, tried the glue and one spot was great, then other not so good. Went on Amazon did a search for replacement faceplates for the elite 2, like $15-20, even custom colors. This is the one I ordered. Amazon.com:

The Steam Controller can play songs through its haptic feedback.

Steam Controller is 2 times cheaper than ps5 DualSense Edge (200$) and Xbox Elite Series 2 (200$) and out of those three Steam Controller offers the most. So think again about what those 100$ offer

Railgun Appreciation Post

Oh, I feel that! I used the original Xbox Elite controller for years with no issues. When I upgraded to the Elite 2.0 though, it was a waste of money. Defective RB out of the box twice, and very noticeable stick drift out of the box as well. Ended up grabbing that Razer Wolverine on sale for $80 (no

Does your playstation and xbox controller face button become uneven, some slightly lower than others?

This is my Xbox elite series 2 controller that I got refurb for $60. The buttons are laid out to be a bit ergonomic, maybe this gives you a clearer answer. Usually if it feels right to press with no stiffness or stickiness then it should be good.
