Customer Ratings & Reviews

A Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot just landed on my front porch and I find a lot to love and nothing to hate. It is beefy feeling, a bit on the hefty side but comfortable in my hand and all buttons and triggers are easy to reach, even the bottom buttons that I never use. It's basically a Xbox Elite but with some interesting improvements and tweaks. With the out of the box configuration you get the standard Xbox controller layout... left joystick and D-Pad and right joystick and ABXY buttons. But now the oddity with major cool factor. Now the Wait, What moment... The Pivot gets its moniker from the unique control pad flip feature. On the bottom of the controller there are two lock/unlock (switches which I though would kill the bottom buttons but not the case) that allow you to pivot the control pads independently. Meaning when you unlock you can pivot to a completely different configuration that is without joysticks (left D-Pad/LSB/RSB and right P1/P2/ABXY buttons). Not my style but still a cool feature. Each pivot pad works independently so if you like one layout better than the other you can mix and match to your playing style. Another cool feature is the height adjustment on the joysticks. Turning the joystick head either clockwise or counter-clockwise will raise or lower the joystick maybe about 2 or 3 mm. The sticks need to be in the lower position to pivot the pad and can with a twist bring them up to full height which I need for sports games like Madden. I tried Madden 23 with the joysticks in the lower position and it hampered the QB running so up periscope :). The triggers feel great with adjustable trigger stop similar to the Xbox Elite. If you use the triggers for a quick response (on/off) then flip the switch on the bottom next to the trigger to reduce the pull of the trigger. If you are, say doing a driving game, then keep the triggers to full operation which will give you more control over speed rather than full on or full off. Same for braking. The onboard display is simple enough and pretty much is for onboard and on the fly configuration purposes only. It's easy enough to switch profiles without having to go into the game setup. The Turtle Beach Control Center 2 software gives you full control of all buttons, triggers, D-pad and joysticks. You can create custom profiles and sync to the Pivot so you can switch on the fly. I ran the calibration routine to make sure all buttons and sticks were functioning properly... check! This controller is Xbox and PC compatible and comes with a wireless dongle for the PC, which isn't needed for the Xbox. I sure wish there was a way to have universal controllers on these feature rich controllers but the technology challenges are hard to overcome. It's been that way forever and I don't see it changing anytime soon. I own several XBox/PC controllers and this has got to be my go to controller going forward.

Not a big fan. Controller is awkward to hold and feels cheap. Also randomly disconnecting from my pc and im using the dongle that came with it.

Loved everything about it the flip side of it all the value the look the color and what it does
