Trigger Grip- Tiny little bumps on the Trigger button add better traction for the player during gameplay.
D-Pad- The D pad is the 4 set button next to your right analog stick. The Up down and right and left. They have developed this into hybrid between the elite series 2 controller from Xbox One and the regular Xbox One controllers. This specification gives the controller a cool look along with better traction.
Use Multiple Devices-  The new controller is verified to be able to sync to Apple IOS, Android, and PC devices through what is called "Xbox Radio". It has smart capability in remembering your devices so you don't have to sync your controller to a device every time you turn on your controller.
USBC connectivity- 
The Xbox series X controller has a USBC port so that you can either hard wire into your system or be able to charge your controller through this port.
Dynamic Latency Input- Brand new system improvements that transmits your controller actions to your Xbox Series X at a faster rate than the Xbox One.
Share Button- The brand new button stationed in the middle of your controller gives you a new way to share your gaming media. Instead of cycling through menus to record and share your media you will be able to do it at just the click of a button.
