    I really like this controller its probably the lightest xbox controller out there besides nacon pro compact. Its so light i refuse to use it on certain games cause im afraid ill break like with boxing or mlb the show when i pitch so i use the thrustmaster on that but by far this one is my fav. The regular xbox controllers are straight trash, my xbox next gen is barely 8 months old and ive gone through 6 xbox controllers and im not going for 7

    Controller works good, the price was good. The only reason for four stars is that i have had it for about a month and started with a left to right drift.

    Feature-packed but broke in a week.

    The rumble/feedback stopped working 1 week after purchase, so I cannot rate this any higher. It also seemed to lose USB-connectivity when restating my computer, and I had to unplug-replug it in. When it did work, it performed well. Button/trigger action is good, rear-button mapping is easy, sound passthrough worked great. It's very light. I had been using a PowerA Fusion, which is a bit heavier and felt more substantial than the Turtle Beach, but that is personal preference. It has a lot of features for the low price, and if it hadn't stopped rumbling, I probably would still be using it, but after it broke I returned it and went back to the PowerA.

    I've never been so happy that I bought a controller. I don't make use of all the headset features, the the controller stands on its own as a functional, sturdy, and responsive gamepad. The two back buttons were a fantastic bonus for games like fortnite that often require a lot of simultaneous movement and inputs as they allow you to access your face buttons while keeping your thumbs on the joysticks.

    One of the best controllers I've used especially for the money, has everything I need, two extra mappable buttons is more than enough imo and great audio as well.

    Average Controller, Does Its Job

    Works well I guess. I would have hoped the response times would have been better with a wired unit. The bottom buttons are nice, but you can only program them to a single function, so no multi-button program. Overall average. Saved money over the wireless and the 10' cord allows me to sit almost where I want to. Works for now. Purchased on sale, would not purchase if it was the same price as a wireless.

    For 60 dollars you get a great controller that offers audio presets found on turtle beach headsets for 1/3 of the price. Pair this up with the recon headset that just came out and you have a great affordable bundle . Let’s be honest, most high end controllers break under a few months use, this price justifies the product as well as the paddles on the back . If it ever breaks, ehh it was 60 bucks, buy another !

    Got this Turtle Beach Recon on sale. I’ve had Razers Wolverine controller and while that controller is obviously a little more fancy. This controller isn’t far off and for a lot less money.

    It works very well, it connects too quickly, the material feels a little fragile but if you are a person who takes care of your things it will last you, the extra functions that come with the control are very good
