Amazing Budget Pick
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Controller for it's price is very high quality. The latency is really good, it doesn't die (not surprisingly), but the d-pad feels kinda cheap, but besides that it's a good pick if your on a budget

“Disappointing Performance”
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was disappointed with the Turtle Beach Recon Wired Controller. The buttons feel stiff and unresponsive, and the build quality seems cheap compared to other controllers I’ve used. While it’s compatible with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows PCs, it doesn’t feel reliable for long gaming sessions. I wouldn’t recommend it if you want a controller that lasts or performs well.

Please don’t buy this junky controller
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not worth 10$! 20 days is how long I’ve had this awful controller and there’s stick drift, and when I call asking for help I’m told there’s a 15 day limit to when you can return an item unless you pay for stupid Best Buy plus?? Scummy and wrong. Don’t buy.

Cool controller but my hands didn't feel great
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The controller itself is cool but however my hands didn't feel great when I was using it. The vibrating on the controller is just too much to handle for my hands.

Stick Drift FAST
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally wrote a positive review because it was great...While it worked. Had the controller less than 90 days before the stick drift became so bad it's basically unusable. I work a lot and only really play a couple hours on the weekends so its not like it got a ton of wear. Buy a different controller.
