You just blew my mind when you said you can see your son diabetes number in the control me as a diabetic this is awesome feture great video.
your reviews are top notch. i like the fact that youre good at games also. i trust you more than the ppl i see testing their controllers on slow paced single player games..... will you be reviewing the apex 4?
Ah man I’m trying my best to get a gaming pc, once I do then yes that controller looks so good. Thanks for the support bro!
The bumper issue is more common than stick drift on the Eleite series 2 , which is wild for a controller. Thank you for the review , I will look to pickup a Sealth Ultra on sale
5 elite here, 3 V1 and 2 V2, all of them got drift, only 1 of them got problem on bumper.
Stay away.
Stealth ultra or flydigi apex 4
Thanks for the great video and explanation, I have 2 questions: 1/ can I map the R3 and L3 to the back buttons? 2/ if I will use the controller wired and use a wired headphone will i be getting the same results that you showed us in the beginning of the video? If yes what type of wireless headphones will you recommend ?
Hey bro so stick buttons register can be mapped to rear ones but the stick actual button can’t be disabled on stealth, like it can be on elite. When the controller is wired using a headset doesn’t add any latency on stealth and elite.
So good! Thank you. Forgive me, but what are the blue and purple joystick covers on the stealth ultra? Subscribed!
Hey the purple one is a kontrolfreeks Galaxy, one of my favourites for aim stick and the blue one is Skull&CO thumbgrips, a really good budget option that also comes with a higher one in the pack.
I've found spray some contact cleaner or alcohol into the bumper switches and the bumpers work perfect again
I’ve had failures on the bumpers of both versions of elites, I’ve resorted to mapping them to the back paddles…. And now stick drift on both, it’s frustrating
Right bumper always fails after 8-12 months. I’ve had 4
I went over to the stealth after two elite controllers having bumpers go bad. I use my stealth on PC and my headset uses a separate dongle so I haven't had the issues with a headset plugged in. I'm not a massive fan of the back button placement but I've gotten used to it. All in all, it's a much more consistent experience.
Can you please give a peek at your controls layout of Stealth Ultra... a newbie here using Stealth Ultra... in fact any controller.. I used only keyboard and mouse till date ... gaming on PC.. not xbox
Hey I'm using 0 min deadzones on sticks and standard response on controller, back buttons you can chose of your own liking. I keep the right outward one for jump and inward for weapon swap, the left outward is crouch and inward depends sometimes left stick press or one of the dpad inputs.
Had the stealth ultra. Really liked the controller, but had random disconnects only on certain games for some reason. Just returned it the other day due to left trigger slightly going out of place while playing cod. It did go back into place, but had issues with not staying ads in 2 different cod games afterwards. Apparently something broke after it came out of place. Think bad quality control with elite series 2 and stealth ultra.
Hey thanks for sharing bro, I need to keep an eye out for the triggers.
Hey, fantastic review! You said you cannot do a simultaneous press on each side of the back buttons on stealth ultra, can you explain a little bit more for me please? I dont understand. Thank you :)
Hey so on the elite I can use ring finger for the bottom and middle finger for the top back pedal, on the stealth it’s the middle finger for either outward one or the inward one. So if someone uses one side pedals simultaneously then elite is definitely the one.
@thephototechy Thanks a lot for explaining! Would you still recommend this controller? How is the plastic stick shaft? Have you had any issues with the plastic stick(s) grinding against the anti friction ring and causing unsmoothness/gauges?
@@Bawsa. hey so I mentioned that in my initial review and had the problem for some time, then it resolved itself but left a grove in the left stick shaft.
Why you have some parts cut off in the circularity test? Like you have to do it again to fullfill all spaces left for the first time.
Hey if you mean my left stick on the series 2, that’s a bad calibration and stays like that for some time and I can even see that in mw3 test screen as well. It’s only on the left stick so doesn’t bother me at all, also soon the calibration tool will be able to fix it.
@@thephototechy No, I mean the circle had some missing slices for the first time you took the test.
What settings for the stealth is the equivalent to the elites quick -4 adjustment curve ?
Stealth only has 3 different curves and they have no adjustment available. Also only the standard feel good and precision and fast feel a bit strange. Having adjustable values might make them more usable.
Are you able to share the kontrol freeks you have on here? Thank you!!
Hey I use galaxies for the right stick and left stick I either use skull and Co grips or the kontrolfreeks no slip grip. I’ve recently made a review of Kontrolfreeks and showed about fakes available online, so be careful where you buy them from.
Yoww. Do you have a solution for the deadzones on the xbox fusiona pro 3? Cuz they are uncontrollable sometimes
Hey have you checked if there is an update for your controller in gamer Hq? There are some base level deadzones but I do find myself using some in game as well, as the controller does feel very quick in response from the first push.
@@thephototechytook mine back and got the instinct. I wish the instinct pro had the fusion 3 paddles 😫. I cannot use all four fingers on the back of the instinct. Kinda lame
The boring old elite wins even tho the stealth is such an amazing controller and feels awesome anti stick drift great trigger buttons but paddles on the stealth are horrible , the whole reason for paddles is speed so with 4 paddles you use two fingers on each hand but with the stealth the triggers are too close and at the same height so you can only really use one finger which takes so much more time
Bro the pedals on the elite are something else for sure. I actually started using mine for a video comparing 1000hz vs 125hz, and the first thing I noticed was the performance increase with those back pedals. It honestly makes me want to buy another one in the hopes it won’t develop same issues as mine, with sticks having too much play and bumper not working at times.
Still no turtlebeach update?
How you grip the elite 2 controller? I have big hands too and i have problem using the controller with 4 paddles on, i can use with 2 but i bought because of the 4 paddles, i try to get used to it but i maybe buy a eswap x again and waiting for the 2nd to arrive to my country, and yes the sticks on the elite sucks, weird, maybe because of the magnet, wobbly, i got stick drift (small) after 1 week, terrible qc, my left stick doesn't even go back to the middle after a turn left or right
Hey so I’m using the series 1 smaller pedals, the longer one’s definitely make the grip a bit difficult for me. I also tried the scuff ones but prefer the series 1 more than them. Honestly if the sticks didn’t have that slop I’d use it a lot more, might even make a Xbox design lab one as well 😂. But as it stands I just done like playing with the controller, I thought of making gameplay video and just gave up after a minute of using it.
Bro if i could copy your review, i would write excactly the same! Big hands not good with this Elite, stick drift straight out of the box, plus it feels loose, not good for small and precise aiming
@@rixordix i tried every controller that i can, for me the only one that worked is the thrustmaster eswap x pro, big controller and sticks are awesome, they are a little stiff but doesn't have the weird big physical deadzone as the elite have, and the back buttons are perfectly under my middle finger, for the bottom 2 you only need to adjust your fingers a little bit, but you need a ps controlfreak for this controller, i don't know it will work for you because my hands and the way i grip the controller i like different back button placement, but you can try if you want, at least you send it back
@@markfromhungary3022 Mate thank you for a reply! Im going to have a look at the Eswap pro right now, because this Elite is driving me crazy😉 I will give you an update as soon as i tried it out, or if i find another one! Thanks again buddy😀
Ooh Yep i see now it is the wired controller, my xbox is standing on the other side of the room because of the wired internet cable, maybe its the time to move the xbox to a place in front of me, with Wifi connection and then a wired controller, its time😁
Yo just letting you know my Xbox Pro BFG just came in and I ran some tests on it and it looks like it’s locked to 125hz polling rate for wireless and wired. Honestly kinda disappointing on PC, but the controller looks so clean especially in all white.
Ah man now I don’t want to get it 😂. Can you please let me if it still feels responsive for aiming?
@@thephototechy honestly I don’t even feel a difference from 250 or 500, but definitely after using the SE 1000 you can feel it like night and day. Personally, definitely going to be my new daily so tired of the Stealth Ultra’s back buttons 💀
@@TripleeVFX so I felt the same with 500hz on Xbox with SE, definitely 1000 felt better. How is the audio? My gambit and BFG are a bit quieter than others.
@@thephototechy definitely quieter, it’s still the same as the gambit
@@TripleeVFX ah man I was hoping they’d improve on that. I can see it releasing 7 march here in UK, hoping to get it soon.
I’m sorry I will not buy another elite two controller again nothing but a bunch of crap
The last two I bought came with stick drift out of the box
I just bought new the Elite 2, it has massive stick drift and it feels loose, not good for small and precise aiming
Without watching the vidoe i will go with the stealth ultra 😂..
All because i have gone through over 5 elites already ..stick drift out the box
Bumpers giving 3 inputs when i press it once (btw thats a sign its going to go bad)
Im goood on elites ...
Hey so same here, never buying an elite again. Mine has stick issues and yes the right bumper is going off with MiniPlayer time.
I’ve bought me one turtle beach stealth pro and right trigger broke so they sent me another one and same thing right trigger broke again
Woah thanks for sharing bro, I’ll keep an eye on mine.
Can you share you settings from the turtle beach app for the controller ?
Hey so the app is strange on Xbox, you have to set a profile then sync to the controller, so I just set everything on the controller. Just making sure aim response is standard and deadzones to 0, back buttons of your choice.
@@thephototechy is the Controller good? i am thinking to buy it over g7 se
@@Troynex hey bro I honestly really enjoy the stealth on my seriesx, but I’m using it wired only. If you can live with only 2 back buttons then I’d say the G7se has an edge with 1000hz, but you need an audio solution as well coz the 3.5mm port won’t work.
Right now I either use G7se, stealth ultra or EswapX on my seriesx. Also the victrix BFG for Xbox has just come out and soon some reviews will be out, so I’d say check those first and then decide. If 4 back buttons are a must then G7se definitely out of question.
@@thephototechy okay Thank you. So I only use 2 back Buttons. So you prefere the g7se more than the stealh Ultra? Stealth Ultra has only 250hz wired Right? …
@@Troynex hey yes stealth ultra is only 250hz wired, but turtlebeach has used a lower resolution on sticks and it makes the controller feel really responsive, still when it comes to aiming I prefer the G7se and the G7 in 1000hz.
Can you do a video on the Astro C40 and the Scuf Envision Pro on what you think and the Dual sense Edge PS5.
Ah man currently only on consoles but trying my best to get gaming pc.
once you go pc you will not go back to console lol@@thephototechy
I have the Elite and I just HATE the paddles. I really prefer buttons in the back over the paddles which I have on my other controller.
I got the SCUF paddles, and they're a good in-between. Not exactly a button feeling; but WAY more tactile than paddles
I have had 4 different elite 2s in the past few years….I love my elite 2 but the bumpers and the d pad are junk so i got my bumpers set up as my paddles
Recently picked up a new Series X cause I love flying games, & the awesome Turtle Beach Velocity One flightstick isn't compatible with PS5. The next purchase for my Series X is definitely gonna be this Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra controller. Now to stay off social media trying to convince me Xbox has abandoned the console market, & there's no reason to remain there lol
I know exactly what you mean, it feels like a time where Xbox will be manufactured by ASUs,MSi, Acer etc could be a reality and we all need to be on the pc platform.
@@thephototechy Yep. Either way, im glad my flightstick & this controller are PC compatible as well as Xbox consoles.
@@thephototechyIt's because gamers are shallow brand-chasers, hate bandwagon jumpers. At some point even the most well-meaning person would just go: "Uh, F*** it" and drop the whole thing. This is why we can't have nice things.
The bumpers on the elite series 2 are terrible. I have the core elite series 2 and also the regular black elite series 2 and both of them the RB button just stopped registering a push within 3-4 months of use. Also, both had a slight stick drift out of the box and has progressively gotten worse with use. I will be getting the stealth ultra just for the thumbsticks.
Hey so my right bumper on the series 2 core is playing up as well. The calibration tool just came out on Xbox, so try calibrating your elite and see if it improves the centre point a bit so you can use lower deadzones.
@thephototechy Is there something I need to do to make the calibration tool active? Because it doesn't show up when I plug in my elite series 2?
Elite series 2 is a shambles. I’m on my 5th broken controller and 9th across both gens. I play all my 3rd party on ps5 because of this, as I’m so accustomed to back paddles, which obviously means I rarely boot my SX up.
The durability is disgraceful in all honesty. I can’t recommend it to anyone.
I saw a reddit post about the turtle beach controller and a lot of peoples said they have a problem with this controller
But i say again (sorry) the elite 2 is sucks, is for casuals, i tried to get used to it since a months but i just can't, the x and b button sometimes don't register, this is my smallest ptoblem, but man these garbage magnetic sticks with that huge deadzone, when you feel you move out the stick from the middle, im 99% sure after a guy video and tests in my controller that the idiot adjustable sticks springs f the sticks up, i can't even use with 4 paddles because they are too close together, my finger is not fat, this is for story games , worst pro controller ever for me, can't even spam the paddles like the buttons, and i think it's have 8ms input lag or response time, other controller have 4 or even faster, it's not sound much but when you go against oc you need everything
The xbox version of pdp bfg pro controller is slowly coming out, Did you plan to make a review?
Hey bro, yes I'm thinking of getting the BFG for xbox but worried about polling rate as well. I've just finished testing the BFG latency on PS5 and it matched the nacon rev 5 pro in my tests and the Nacon is 250hz, but I think something is happening to thrid party controllers on PS5. My local retail still don't have the BFG yet and only Amazon has it here so I might get it for a review.
Both are trash . Get a Scuf
Stealth ultra is my favorite controller I’ve ever owned. The scuff and elite 2 are both overpriced garbage that don’t last. The ultra is light years ahead of both
Using the Stealth Ultra over the Scuf Instinct Pro now. Scuf dropped the ball with the 2 paddles in back being placed on the back piece of the controller. Between the paddle breaking 2 times, and another with stick drift, I'm done with it. It's now a back up with a super glued paddle.
