Customers are saying
Customers frequently mention the high-quality build, ease of use, and satisfying feel of the Recon controller, particularly praising its remappable buttons and comfortable grip. However, some users reported issues with stick drift and occasional connection problems, especially when used with PCs. A few also noted that the controller is wired and that some users found the bumpers and triggers to be less responsive than expected. Overall, the positive feedback on the controller's design and features outweighs the negative comments regarding functionality.

It just works.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this because the two Xbox brand controllers I returned had sticky buttons and the blutooth is unreliable. I have not used any of the extra functions on this unit but I love the grippy handles and long braided cord. I play racing games and would rather have a chord than the unreliable location freedom of wireless. I also like buying from a well established company that gets into something new because you can get a great value even if they miss some things on their first try.

On discount, a really good wir3d controller
|Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this at a discount of 40 bucks, it was really good. Has two buttons on the back and the rubber additions on the sides were really comfy. If you dont mind it being wired. Then you should get this one when it's on sale. Better than the normal xbox controller

Great controller
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a few weeks of usage . The controller feels still good and no stick drift . The sound amplifier on the controller really helps me locate my enemies on the battlefield. Im a fps player so its really great having a built in EQ in your controller and not having to buy a seperate one

Good, durable, lasts about a year heavy use/abuse
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Second time I'm purchasing this control for my boyfriend, he's an avid ADHD gamer and goes the the motions with the control quickly and sometimes presses the buttons harder than he thinks but lasts about a year for him, taking into account we have cats that knock this thing around and caused drag on the previous one.

Good Gaming Buddy
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this because I wanted a mappable controller with the underside paddles. Couldn’t justify getting an Elite controller, so decided to give this a whirl. So far, it has been a good controller. The weight takes some getting used to given it's lighter and slightly thinner than the regular Xbox controller. The grips though compensate for it by adding extra handling. The sound controls are what you would expect from Turtle Beach. I definitely like having a controller where I’m not having to constantly remove and reconnect the headphone adapter. The “Superhuman” function hears everything even on the largest map, while the EQ function allows just the right amount of customization. Two cons: 1) the cable plug-in is extremely sensitive. If it gets shaken just a bit, the controller disconnects. Usually, if I mind my hands near it everything stays connected as it should. 2) the paddles can become cumbersome while you get used to the narrower construction of the controller. I mapped my melee to the left paddle, so that provided several awkward deaths in the first few days. Overall, though, good controller for the money versus and Elite.

Good at first, but started getting issues.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I initially got this controller it was perfect. Sticks were tight. Back buttons feel great; not too stiff and not too sensitive. It has a bit of a cheap feeling overall, but that's more with how light and thin the controller feels more than anything. But after about a month, I started getting issues with stick drift. When using the left stick it would subtly tilt my camera in games, which made it harder to use for shooters and action games with an emphasis on camera control. The left stick would also just sometimes move my character left without me touching the stick at all. The issues aren't too consistent so I don't feel like it's completely unusable, but disappointing considering how great it felt to use when it was brand new. I still use this controller when I can, and I do recommend it if you can get it on sale.

TB RECON
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome controller for what it does. Very lightweight and responsive. The super human hearing feature maybe a little gimmicky but overall its a solid device. One drawback is that you cant make the back buttons your shooting button. Other than that the features are cool. I think the price should have 50 instead of 60 though. Not a bad pick up.
