I use to love it untill I tried a few better options. I use to think it was the best. Try using some of the programs towards the end on yours and see how the latency is and how much drift you have and see how it compares. I really had no clue until a buddy of mine who’s a controller guru started schooling me on them and I’m forever thankful. Playing black ops and cod you’ll instantly notice the difference. Even if you choose a different controller, check that gamepadla site linked below because it has a community built database of hundreds of controllers with all the testing data 📈 you could ever imagine. Honestly it’s mind blowing the work they do completely free. Hope you’re having a good one brother ! Thanks so much for checking out my video. We need to colab on another video one day.
Thank you ! Yeah it’s still an awesome controller. The triggers imo are the best between the two since it has those adjustable triggers. Another big w for the Zeus is those super fast hot swappable buttons. The Asura 2 is super similar
Have you found a good controller with hall effects that work on Xbox and PC wireless? There are a bunch that exclude Xbox. I use the rog ally but I have an Xbox too.
Hey CPPC, would you say that controller is better than the 8bitdo ultimate or ultimate c controllers? Those are pretty good for their price. Also i have the elite series 2 xbox controller. I couldnt tell if yours was the 1 or the 2
Mine is the 2. And this is the 5th one I’ve had. I have had to replace them so often. My wife’s had to replace hers twice too. And as far as the 8bitdo I think so. I’ve tried them and it’s just way more premium feeling and the joysticks feel better as well as the buttons.
Yes it does Bluetooth also as well. But latency wise the dongle is 30x faster. Just would strongly suggest using the dongle if you need wireless control. All Bluetooth controllers do have latency though so if you’re used to playing controllers on Bluetooth then I’m sure you know. If your using a device that doesn’t have a usb c port you can get an adapter to run that type a dongle
There’s a ton of controllers out there that offer similar setups. Check out gamepadla.com It’s a free community supported website that shows all the popular controllers and how they test with latency and other test.
you are mixing responce time with polling rate , the elite 2 actually have a superior responce time with less thna 8 ms is about 3 times faster according to Gamepadla when connected wirded and about 11 ms via bluetooth .
Check out the comparisons at the end with using the dongle vs Bluetooth on the Xbox. I don’t think using Bluetooth is worth it and no competitive gamers use Bluetooth. I ran the gamepadla test for latency at the end. Did you see all the test ?
@@cppctek what gamepadla is doing is not a software testing , they take it apart and use a special kit to test the input lag and I can't replicate that . I am actually don't think the elite series 2 is good , it's already outdated but the Asura do have way higher input lag compared to other top controllers. Gamesir , EasySMX and Flydigi controllers are way more superior in terms of input lag.
@@cppctek check out the bigbig won Blitz 2 , it also has the near link and way better input lag , the drift on the elite series 2 is a mechanical drift and you can and will get that at some point on the asura as well.
@monderkbaeli9411 the Asura only has higher input lag IF you completely ignore and miss the entire point that it has a special dongle included that is wayyyyyyy faster than both wired and Bluetooth of the Xbox. I think you’re maybe not really thinking about it in the same way. Why would someone use Bluetooth for competitive gaming anyways? Anyone who cares about latency will use the dongle. The proof is in the test I shared. It speaks for itself. You use what is faster. Not slower. The Asura wins with its included dongle by a mile.
@@cppctek In the market now the Blitz 2 TMR is the fastest and the most accurate controller i know about , i do have it and the Vader 4 pro , the EasySMX x20 and the elite series 2 .
I have that same white Xbox Controller. I'll consider this controller for the future. Good video. Thank you!

Great as always! I got the Zeus 2 after watching your video, that one has good button latency as well

Thank you for your support and have a nice life!

Yeah i had to send my series 2 in for warranty because apparently they have a habit of their shoulder buttons going bad.
Wow and its like half the cost of the series 2 and the whole kit of add-ons. Thats crazy.
Edit:
Should have watched entirely first. It sure does.

Does the joystick have a bluetooth mode as well, or is it dongle only?
Yes it does Bluetooth also as well. But latency wise the dongle is 30x faster. Just would strongly suggest using the dongle if you need wireless control.

If your using a device that doesn’t have a usb c port you can get an adapter to run that type a dongle
Actually NearLink tech is similar to Bluetooth mode, but more stable and fast.
Is it just the dongle that doesn’t work on Xbox
I don’t have an Xbox so I can’t confirm but the website says not compatible with Xbox so I’m not sure
Is there any other comparable competition?
