The armor used by the Elites in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' has a few differences from the armor used in later games. Some Elites have a "curled-back" headpiece, different thigh armors, and smaller shoulder pieces. They also have shoulder armor with a three-pronged design. In addition, they have orange glowing sections on their arms and legs, which often give away their position. Their eye color is also the same as their armor color; a [[Sangheili Minor|Minor]] with blue armor will have blue eyes, for example.

=== Halo 2 ===
In ''[[Halo 2]]'', there are no curled headpieces and the eyes are not the same color as the armor, rather a dark purple or black color. Also, the shoulder pieces are larger than in the previous game. They also have glowing orange sections on the backs of their legs and on their arms which act as shield indicators, glowing brightly when the shield is fully charged and dimming or going out altogether depending on shield level.

=== Halo 3 ===
In ''[[Halo 3]]'', the armor now features larger shoulder pieces, longer and more numerous spikes on the headpiece, and a small tube connecting to each mandible guard. The tube is only included in the ''Halo 3'' incarnation. There are also downwards-angled lights on both sides of the chest plate. The large orange shield indicators are replaced by two small green lights on the harness' back and chest plate, which are dull when the shield is fully charged and glow bright when the shield is depleted.

In ''[[Halo Wars]]'', the Elite's armor is more reminiscent of the ''Halo 2'' version as opposed to the ''Halo 3'' version. The shoulders are much more rounded and the coloring in the armor seems worn out.

While the Elite combat harnesses in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'' are identical to the ones in ''Halo: Reach'' the combat harness is different from the earlier iterations in a number of ways. The other types are also much more varied, depending on the Elite's rank or specialty. Only the Minors' armor greatly resembles the combat harness seen previously. An addition to the armor is the [[energy dagger]] which is emitted by the gauntlet when the wearer performs an [[assassination]].

The Elite's HUD compass has Covenant markings instead of cardinal directions. Night vision uses a purple color, as opposed to the green color used by Spartans. The Elite's HUD also features a target tracking system when used with compatible (Covenant) weapons.

In ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'', unlike in ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'', all of the Elites (with the exception of [[Sangheili High Councilor|Councilors]], wear the same kind of combat harness albeit with different coloring depending on the rank.
