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.

    I actually like this controller a lot and it’s saving me a lot on batteries. I bought this wried controller for my gaming laptop so I would recommend it. The only thing is the reason I didn’t give it five stars was because the mapping is confusing but otherwise it’s a good controller comfortable in the hands.

    Like this controller a lot. The only issue I have with it is the left toggle starts to drift. I thought it was just me because I’m a bit hard on things but I’ve read other reviews saying the same thing. Other than that great controller and functions. Just buy it when it’s on sale until they fix the issue!
