Customer Ratings & Reviews

The controller looks premium and feels great in hand, actually using it leaves a lot to be desired. The mechanical buttons and triggers feel responsive with the audible clicking but are not very responsive when actually gaming. Playing Halo Infinite and Baldurs Gate 3 this controller really struggled to actually register my button clicks 1/3 of the time. For a $200 controller I expected at least elite series 2 or better quality but after the crappy software, not being able to map the L3-R3 buttons and the awkward placement of the 2 of 4 mapable paddles i couldn't justify keeping the controller. I wouldnt recommend this controller over the elite series 2.

I was super excited to try this out until the moment I picked it up. It feels cheap. The screen is the only way to interact with the controller because the PC app does nothing but show you a picture of the controller and never actually applies ANY settings. The phone app is also next to nothing. Neither actually work. The sticks are not swappable. The triggers felt too shallow even on the long throw setting. The buttons are far clickier than I would like. The lighting is really the only cool thing about it and a $180 controller lighting does not make.

Best controller I have ever owned, easy to set up and can be use with multiple devices, feels light and comfortable.

One is The better controller I’ve had in a long time. I like the light feeling for once I’m use to heavier controllers. Not to mention the RGB?

Yo, this may be the worst controller I ever purchased in my whole entire life. I don’t even know where to start. Do not buy this controller. I am so upset that the store is closed right now that I can’t return it and go get me an Elite controller. First, the bumpers and the analog stick randomly stop working throughout games Controller randomly cuts off and does not cut back on for several hours. I was in the middle of a 2K game and the controller cut off and would not reconnect, and I lost because I was idle for too long. I checked the controller, and underneath the Xbox button, the light is only flashing. The USB they gave you in the box is flashing as well, and you can’t reset the dang thing. It’s been doing this for the last 45 minutes. I do not recommend anyone buy this controller.

I am a huge turtle beach fan but my biggest complaint is my turtle beach head phones cant sync with the controller for one of the focus selling points the headset mixer.

On paper it’s amazing. It has good feel. It’s a little light. Turtle beach’s software is horrible. It’s a pain to make custom profiles. The turtle beach usb dongle you have to use for wireless play is horrible. The sticks and triggers are decent.

Played with the new Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra controller. Still need to put more time on it but noticing some flaws. Grip is lacking on controller and sticks. It seems the app settings on the Xbox may be working against the settings on the controller. Either way, I've already switched back to my Elite controller. May call Turtle Beach tomorrow for some help. But the overall grip issue and no real stick options got thinking of returning for refund. Hall Effects or not, the negatives are outweighing the positives thus far.

Absolutely amazing, love purchasing items from Waterford! Friendly, smart employees who don’t fail to get you what you need and or make your day. Best controller ever! Turtle beach stealth ultra 10/10!

Overall its a good controller. Nothig to complain about.

Great controller to many features i dont use. Had 2 controllers and both triggers broke. Wish they added different sticks but other than that was nice while it lasted.

Compared to the elite series 2 controller it's not that great, it has some gimiky features and the hal effect sticks are nice but for the money stick with the elite series 2.

What a huge let down was to purchase this controller. I was so excited for this controller that I immediately preordered it when it was first announced. I was excited for the Hall Effect Thumbsticks and the fact that is wireless. It worked perfectly right out of the box. The controller itself is nice looking, but a bit too light for my liking. The fact that you can customize it on the fly is great. You can change the color the LED lights that illuminate the controller as well. The built-in screen is pretty neat. Very small, but bright and clear. I never really got to try much of this feature because a few days after I started using the controller, it stopped synching to the usb charging base. I went to the Turtle Beach site to find a way to update the controller. The only way to do that was to connect the controller to the base, but since that was the problem, I could not update it. I tried resetting the controller a few times. It didn’t work. Then, the controller was turning off and on by itself. After 2 hours of trying to make it work, I gave up. I took it back to Best Buy for a full refund. I have an Xbox elite controller that I purchased on sale a few weeks prior to purchasing this controller. It was still sealed. I was going to return it, but not anymore. I made sure to purchase a few years on insurance for the fact that Elite thumbsticks tend to develop a “drift” after some time. It’s unfortunate that this controller has so many issues. If they can work out all of them, I’ll reconsider. But for now, no way!

Before I start: I purchased THREE of these controllers, and all were updated to the latest firmware as of 12/17/2023. These issues exist on all 3 units. This controller is a complete failure from fhe QC department, which is inexcusable for $200 MSRP + tax 1. The D-Pad has a critical flaw with the right direction. It has a lot of pre-travel that makes a fake click noise, before an actual click is registered. 2. When trying to do a QCF motion on the D-Pad (glide from down to right), the D-Pad will get stuck in the bottom right diagonal direction, until you move close to up-forward (which causes accidental jumps in fighting games). Unusable D-Pad for 8-way games. 3. The anti-friction ring on the left joystick degrades extremely fast and the stick will grind on the walls of the controller. The anti-friction ring is useless and incredibly cheap quality. 4. I only get around 6-8 hours of battery life on a charge, it is not lasting the advertised 30 hours. 5. The software on Windows is incredibly buggy, you can see options glitch out in real time, and they do not apply correctly to the controller. 6. The controller has a bug where the screen will NOT time out at all after restarting the controller (for example, after you fully charged it). You have to access the on-screen menu and then back out for the timeout to work correctly. I would be extremely upset if I designed this controller and garbage QC control ruined my design. I refunded all 3 controllers to Best Buy and got my $600+ back. Don't buy this controller until QC and firmware issues are sorted out.

Possibly the best controller available!! Controls are customizable has a nice case to keep it in .and the best part is no more AA batteries!!

The Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra excels with Hall-effect sticks, tactile microswitch buttons, adjustable triggers, and a clever OLED display for on‑the‑fly customization. It delivers strong game feel and versatile connectivity (Bluetooth, dongle, USB). However, its premium price, average battery life, and occasional software or quality-control issue.

Easy to setup and install firmware updates, and love the feel and rbg lights. Eveything is customizable on this controller in settings. Definitely feels like a pto controller, but it is slightly small the controller. Overall 5 stars

Works so much better than the Microsoft Brand !!!!

Better than the others. Very customizable and give a cool feel to the room while it charges

One problem if found is the triggers need to be better built. You have to be gentle when using
