Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall great controller for the money. It's lighter than wireless ones, which I like. Good ergonomics

It’s Alright
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think you’re better off getting the Gamesir controller with hall effect joysticks. Around the same price, and will last much longer than this did for me. The grip is nice though.

Excellent controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent controller. Very reliable with an excellent grip.
I would recommend this to a friend Good wired controller if you get it on sale!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this controller on a half-off Black Friday deal because I wanted a second controller to use with my laptop so I could keep my primary controller with my Xbox. This is a good controller for the price I paid. First the good: This controller works well for playing Forza Horizon 5. The sticks are both responsive and seem accurate. I mapped the back paddle buttons to control shifting up and down, and that made a big difference but takes some getting used to if coming from the standard Xbox controller. The included USB-C to USB-A cable is long and feels like it's good quality. This is a wired controller, so no need to worry about batteries. You can save 4 different controller profiles, making it easy to switch between games. Now the less than good: Sometimes the buttons require a slightly harder press before anything happens. It's not every time, but it's enough to make it annoying in the middle of a game. The locations of the back buttons feel awkward. The process of mapping these buttons seems a little convoluted, and I don't know if I can remember how to change it if I lose the instructions. All in all, a good controller if you can get it cheap.

Better than standard Xbox controllers
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price this is a really great controller. Lots of extra buttons and controls for other features. I use this for PC, so not aware of all the features available on XBox but ill gladly use this over a standard Xbox controller.

Controller
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its really a great controller. The only issue i have is the triggers aren't adjustable at all. Other than that it's awesome.

Hasn't stick drifted yet.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller is good. It has all the functions that you would want in a device of its caliber. It has the basic, necessary functions for any play style as well as the back buttons that help with additional functionality. It hasn't stick drifted yet, which was my previous issues with X-controllers. So far so good!

Better than I expected for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a good hardwired controller and didn't want to spend the money on a Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma. I came across this Turtle Beach and the sound enhancements are better than I expected. Also, I love the programmable buttons on the bottom as they don't get accidentally pressed as much as my orignal xbox elite controlller. Longevity is really the only question at this point, but for what I paid for the original elite, it didn't last 5 years.

Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.New to the area and have been coming here for a lot of supplies for a setup recently, staff is all super friendly and helpful while also not hovering or bothering. No extra fluff there, just wanted to say this is a good store. As for the controller, I love it. Take extra good care of it and keep it clean to prevent early stick drift on it though.
