Its official page says that it is “designed to meet the needs of today’s competitive gamers” and that it “features over 30 new ways to play like a pro”. The controller is highly customizable and comes with a set of six thumbsticks of different shapes and sizes, four paddles, two D-pads, a charging base, a carrying case and a USB-C cable. Its battery can last up to 40 hours, and yes, it can connect to your device via Bluetooth or USB-C to play Xbox and PC titles. You can also save up to three custom profiles with a default one for the controller, so you can easily switch between them depending on what you’re playing.
While this is the second time the Elite Series 2 has been on sale this month, it’s often not easy to find it on sale at a discount. It’s also out of stock on Amazon right now, so this might be your best chance to get it for much lower than the retail price.
