Thumbsticks are highly sensitive which is different than other controllers used in the past. Also had a difficult time connecting the controller to turtle beach account for customization. Overall not a bad controller!

I wish I knew it was not wireless for Xbox. You have to use a cord so therefore it has cool features, but I give it a grade too cause I don’t have a computer for the wireless. I have an Xbox and I don’t use it very much cause I use my wireless controller instead, so I probably wasted money.

The Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot Wireless controller is an interesting way to have a self-contained modular controller. I’ve seen other controllers that you can take out and replace modules for more customization, but it also drivers up costs and complexity. The Stealth Pivot finds a nice balance at a good price to give you some customization and flexibility in how you want to use it. It is a little bigger and heavier than a standard plug-in controller, but felt good in my hands, not cramped like other controllers. The grip felt good and stayed in my hands. The colors are nice, and the LEDs not overpowering. There is software to customize the buttons and display. The display is large enough to read and can display social media information if wanted in addition to the controller status. Depending on what you use it with you have 3 different ways to connect. For PC wireless, you have to use the included dongle which takes up a USB-A slot. Wired, you can connect to a PC or X-Box. For Bluetooth (BT) you can only connect to a mobile device. All 3 connections responded well on a PC or Android phone. Responses were good and no lag was evident. The battery is rated for 20 hours of use. On the top you get 2 mini sticks and a D-Pad for movement with 4 buttons. Flipping them over you get D-Pad and 8 buttons. Besides that, you get a slider for audio, on/off button, menu options, analog and button trigger buttons, and 2 buttons underneath. The rotation release, and short/long trigger option buttons are also available. Charging/connecting is done through a USB-C connector on the connector.
To the big item, the rotation of the A and B sides. Two things must happen. You must release the lock from underneath and rotate the mini-sticks to the down position. Turning the top of the mini-sticks left or right will raise and lower them. The pivots will only rotate with the min-sticks in the down position. I tried as hard as I could to twist them while playing without grabbing them and was not able too. The force required to rotate the min-sticks won’t allow them to raise or lower by accident, so no worries of the sticks collapsing while playing. I found being able to switch the pivots better than I thought. For driving or flying type sims, the 2 mini-stick layout worked best. For fighting games, rotating the right side to get 6 buttons instead of 4 and min-stick was much better. I usually kept the mini-stick on the left in use with the D-Pad. One D-Pad and 2 buttons didn’t give the best options for most games to me. In changing the pivots you don’t have to do select anything or make additional changes, just flip and the new layout takes over.
There is software you can download for PC and mobile to customize the controller. You can also go through the onboard menu options to do all of the major changes you would like. The 3.5 jack volume/mute can be controlled by the slider under the on/off button. You can have chats or other media display on the on-screen display. It’s not big, but good enough to convey information. You can have 5 different profiles to save the layout and colors you want. The software still needs some work, but it gets the job done. All of the options to change are available and not hard to find and change as you want. 20 hours will last for a long gaming session. The force feedback was good and responsive. I had no drift with the sticks. You can adjust the deadzones as wanted in the software for more control.
As this can be wireless, it is bit heavier due to having a battery, but I like the feeling of heft is provides and the slightly larger controller in my hands. It’s all plastic, but felt good in my hands, and not slippery. The options to customize are available on the device or through software. The LED display can show useful information, but I kept mine clean with just want was needed. It’s to bad it has BT, but it only works on a mobile device. Being able to connect it to a PC without losing a USB slot would have been nice. Hopefully the software gets better with time, but it does what you need too. You have to connect by wire for some options. I think it’s a fine controller and innovative in giving more options without having to physically replace buttons or controllers.

Functionality and ease of use could be better and personally, I didn’t need a tiny LED screen on my controllers LOL but other than that, a solid controller overall
