Amazing controller that has better sticks and vibration than microsoft controllers. Feels great to hold and use. I wish there was a 8bit app for Xbox to change the controller settings and update it. Have to plug it into a pc for button mapping and any other customization. Read more

I was pleased with the quality of the components and features for this controller. Charging dock, optional thumb pads, good feel and quality of buttons and a quiet d-pad. This is your one controller across Xbox(via included dongle), wireless or Bluetooth. 4/5 as I feel it’s a little pricey for an alternative to a first party controller. Read more

Great aquisition I'm from Brazil and bought this, as it's probably the only way for me to obtain a wireless controller for Xbox with hall effect to prevent drift. I have a wired Gamesir which is great, but the wire is annoying to use in the living room. This one is better than the Gamesir tho, IMO. It was very expensive and I think it's shameful I had to pay so much for such a simple need (a d*a*m***n controller which is wireless and won't give me drift in 1-2 years). Shame on Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony for that. The hall effect system was developed for the freaking DREAMCAST joystick... 1998... That aside, about the controller, it's great! I was really happy when it arrived, cause it's a gorgeous controller. It can be a piece of decoration in any room, specially when docked. The grip is great, although I prefer holding the Elite Series 2 (which I use seldomly to avoid drift...). It's light and smaller than the usual xbox controller, but I found it very comfortable. My girlfriend has small hands and she thinks this is the best controller she ever held. The start/select buttons are a bit too centered, a bit far from the sides, but I don't mind it after playing for 3 days with it. It's just a bit odd. The sticks are AMAZING, even better using the stick caps that came in the box. Feels really good and it prevents thumbs from sweating. I prefer the D-Pad style of the Elite 2, 360º, but the D-pad here has a clicky press which I liked very much too. The triggers are clicky and noisy, which I do like, but if you intend to play next to someone sleeping, it might be a problem. Not loud like a mechanical keyboard, but loud. Overall, I think this is a 10/10. Do I prefer the Elite Series 2? Yes, but it is plagued by drift-risk, which makes it a 6/10 product to me. Read more

Buttons on the back,.click em all the time. Love the colors, the style, triggers are amazing. Love it Read more

This is a great controller for those who like to collect special controllers. Design. The blue color wave design looks much better in person than it does in pictures and it has darker blue designs in it that look great. The gold d-pad reminds me of the gold in the rare logo that I've seen since I was a kid. The yellow on the bumpers and triggers is also a great touch. The R40 logo looks great! I even appreciate the custom stick pads for sea of thieves. The charging station is also a great addition and I really like the yellow charge light on the bottom. That's a really nice touch. Feel. Feel of the controller is premium and the plastics feel very high quality and very nice. The sticks feel very comfortable and move extremely well. The bumpers are nice and clicky and the triggers feel nice and smooth. The controller is a bit shorter and the numbers are a bit smaller than the standard controller, so if you have larger hands that may be an issue. I would say it's more the size of a switch Pro controller. I have smaller hands so it's great for me. The other buttons feel nice and tacky have great feedback. The hall effect sticks and triggers are going to last a long time. Price. I've seen some reviews that this controller is overpriced. I disagree. The design of the controller is excellent. The buttons are premium and the sticks are premium with premium hall effect. It also comes with its own charger that has its own colorway and a yellow charge light on the bottom. It's also a custom collaboration with Rare. First party controllers aren't rechargeable out of the box and do not have a charging station. Those two things alone will cost you $30. This controller also can have three custom configurations stored on it. Only the elite Xbox controllers can do that and they are much more expensive. The standard ones can be customized but those customizations aren't stored on the controller at all. You absolutely get what you pay for here. I'm very happy with this purchase and if you are an old school gamer you will be too. Read more
