Some can come away from reading "War and Peace" thinking it a simple adventure story, while others can read the ingredients on a gum wrapper and unlock the secrets of the universe.

Their armours are basically the same in nearly all respects, according to the Halo Encyclopaedia. Boosts strength, speed, agility and offers an energy shield. Higher and higher ranking Elites get given armours that are increasingly superior to lower ranking armours though, so they are not all the same. It used to be held that a Major Domo was equal to a Spartan in Mjolnir, so armour systems above that rank are probably superior to Mjolnir.
The Encyclopedia has not exactly proven to be a reliable and viable source of information.
EDIT: Note that Elites are also raised from an early aged with combat and warfare in mind. Although their training is hardly as coordinated or rigorous. In fact as opposed to the SPARTAN project which selects the best via genetic and psychological test, Sanghelli training is meant to solely separated the weak from the strong in the first place. Not improve upon them.
Also from what I understand, Spartan armor systems are more advanced than their Covenant counter parts. This is for the reason that they (the later versions) were based of reversed engineered Covenant technology, improved upon with Human ingenuity and innovation.
