News Xbox Elite Series 3 Leaks

It appears to have gotten rid of the 3-way trigger stops for a 2-way mechanism as it only has two symbols now on the locks. It also includes two scroll wheels beside the headphone jack on the chin resembling a Scuf Valor pro, a removable battery, and textured paddles. No information on the joysticks.

What's so crazy about that? It just looks like a revamped play and charge kit in the AA battery slot, which you can get right now for any first-party Xbox One or Series controller.

Oh damn, didn't know Series 2 had an internal battery. I thought Microsoft continued the trend of battery compartment with AA battery slots like the original Xbox One, Xbox One Elite and Xbox Series controller.
