Hey Jack . What I’ve found with the Scuff is that the same finger can use both the paddles on one side. I use my middle finger and it sort of rests in between both of them . And I just either flick up , or down. On whether it would get in the way . I’d have to say that it could . Especially if this is how you are used to playing. I guess it would require a bit of getting used to if you picked one up.

I have an elite series 2. I’ve had the controller for about 8 months. I noticed straight out the box that the A button sometimes does not register. I’m also now experiencing my RB is hardly registering. I have to press it really hard and in a specific spot on the button to get it to function correctly. Another issue I’ve had is random connection drops. It’ll be randomly in the middle of a game my controller will stop working, but it still says it’s on so I have to reconnect it by holding the pairing button. With all these issues, and not to mention how difficult it is to get a hold of Microsoft since it’s still within warranty. I just bought a scuff controller. I pray that it is better.

Ordered the scuf instinct pro. within 3 days had .8N stick drift on the right stick. returning it was a serious hassle. Like the feel of the controller but stick drift after 3 days is not worth a $200 controller..

I'm planning to get both of these controllers 😊

The Elite Series 2 would be an amazing controller and package deal if only it was more durable. I noticed right out of the box it seemed like some button presses wouldn't register the first press but that wasn't consistant so I didnt think much of it. A little after a year it started to shut off if I clicked the right thumbstick and wouldn't turn back on unless I plugged it in. I tried to contact Microsoft but since it was one month out of warranty they offered me nothing. Also important to note that I'm very particular and careful with my things especially something that was 180 bucks. I also don't game very often and I think I might of only played through about 6 full charges of the battery over the course of the year. The controller looks brand new with no signs of wear even on the thumbsticks. Very disappointing cause I thought the controller would last a lot more than a year of very light minimal use. However I will not buy a scuf that has less features and cost way more either. I'm just gonna stick with my regular standard controller which seems indestructible and cost a third of the price. The paddles on the back of the Elite 2 were cool at first but then I really never used them anyway. The only thing I will actually miss is the adjustable throw on the triggers.

Daaaaamn I'm torn. I game on PC and haven't used one of these pro type controllers yet with the paddles and everything. The scuf looks sick, aesthetically and otherwise, but tbh I don't play a lot of shooters anymore. As much as I want to trick out a scuf with custom colors and everything, I should probably save that extra $50 or so. Not to mention the rechargeable battery... I recently upgraded my whole PC so it has bluetooth now, and the rate I've been going through AA batteries is just ridiculous, but finally being able to use wireless on PC is so nice. That's the main reason I even started looking at controllers. Anyway, I think I'll get the eliteS2 for now, and maybe get a scuf later if I feel like it.

The main reason for me to get the Scuf Instinct Pro was the Design and the option to use my own pair of AA Batteries. I only use Premium Lithium AA Batteries wich usually last 60-80 hours wich is absolutely incredible. The build in battery of the Elite is a turn off for me, as that battery wont last 30 hours after a year of use PLUS if it gets defective you"ll need to get it repaired or buy a new controller.

Don’t go with Xbox elite 2. I’ve replaced it 3 times. Feels great and looks nice but after a few months the A button stops working or your character starts looking at the sky.

I've never suffered from stick drift on my elite bug I have on the scuff. The customisation as you state is far better also. So for me it's the elite for the win!

Surprised you did not even talk about the analogs or the d pad which are the biggest major differences between the two controllers especially for competitive gaming. The analogs for the elite controller are heavy and slow to snap back. They will tire out your thumbs over long play periods 4 - 6 hours or more. I have even got some bad cramps that last a week and felt like mild arthritis and I always had the tension on the lowest. If you need full control over the analog and make precision movements and fast jerks, it's a heavy slog. You have to put more pressure on the elite controller than you do on other plastic analogs like PS5, PS4 or Xbox Wireless. In competitive fighting games you will be using the d pad. The dpads on the elite are the opposite of what you want for a fighting game. They are rigid, and uncomfortable. The classic d pad is serviceable however but you will find it unforgiving after doing your 500th DP motion. It is simply incomparable in the comfort and precision you will get doing the quarter circle motions on the X Box wireless hybrid dpad. If the SCUF's hybrid is anything like the Xbox Wireless (Series X/S) then it is supremely better than a solid metal dpad and exceeds the PS5 dual sense although after some breaking in the DS4 is quite a decent dpad for such games. This review is missing some very important key discussion points I suggest you add to it because it could use a more technical analyses.
