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.

Shoud I change my Elite Series 2 for the new Steam Controller?

The elite series 2 is also meant for PC gaming. If it still works well, no missed presses or double-presses like mine has developed, continue using it. And since the elite is an xbox controller with xinput, it is far more directly compatible with games than the steam controller.

Suggestion for a pad to play on pc

Thank for the reply!I just checked online the dimensions of the Cyclone 2 and looks like a bit bigger the the Elite Series 2 that i'm using atm and it wuold be perfect for my hands so I would leave the Elite paired to the Xbox and use the Cyclone only on the pc.

How to use Xbox Elite Series 2 controller on Xbox 360?

I've own two Elite 2 controllers over the years so here's my thoughts on the points you wanted to know about: Stick drift - Both my current and the previous had stick drift issues.

Controllers

I bought the elite 2 Xbox controller before gamesir G7 Pro. I love my G7 Pro. Those microswitches on short trigger mode, l4/r4, lockable rear buttons. It’s everything I want in a controller. I use it for my ally and my legion pro 7i. Fun fact, gamesir docks that come with controllers usually have a

Windows 11 will not recognize Xbox Wireless Adapter

Thanks for this, it worked flawless to connect Xbox Elite Series 2 controller on my fully updated Windows 11. Fixed the XBOX_ACC unknown device problem with the dongle. This is the solution.

Nothing crazy but it’s a setup I’m proud of.

I bought two of the elite series 2 controllers and got the other one for $50 so it was a good pick up for the price. The other ones, I just like to have different colors, I have a blue one, a red one, a white one and a black one. Also if I have people over and I’m on my series x, they can choose wha
