Pros: A direct improvement over the first pad model in this series. Of the most noticeable, a more pleasant grip due to the embossed coating and a new disc-shaped d-pad, very comfortable and responsive. The connector is now type-c instead of micro-USB with corresponding advantages. Recognized as expected. Has some cons The disadvantage is the same as other xb pads, the XABY buttons are as usual flimsy, a little dangling and not pleasant. This is not a huge drawback, but still, controller surpasses them in this aspect.
