Customers consistently note the H.E.A.R.T Controller's Hall effect technology as a standout feature, praising its precision and control, especially in racing games. The mechanical buttons are also widely appreciated for their satisfying click and quick response time, providing an edge in fast-paced games. However, some users find the stick tension to be too strong, requiring adjustment, and the controller's light weight and wired connection are seen as drawbacks for some.

Almost perfect
PROS: I love the feel of the stiff thumbsticks. They feel very smooth while aiming in my favorite games. ABXY are flat and very easy to press I really like them. The dpad is a slight upgrade compared to the stock controller. Back buttons are in a good place and easy to press. CONS: The triggers feel almost loose and I wish there were trigger stops considering the price. The bumpers are NOT CLICKY. On the h.e.a.r.t, the bumpers feel mushy and I prefer the stock bumpers. Menu and share buttons are awkward because i find myself miss clicking alot. The controller does feel cheap and doesn’t really have grip. An issue I encounter with the controller on xbox is that it disconnects while still being plugged in if you pull the cable. I dont know why this happens because my screen says controller disconnected but the rgb is still on. Could be an Xbox issue. Other reviews stated discomfort holding the controller, and I think stock does feel better, but it isnt the worst. The software app is great too. The stick DO FEEL DIFFERENT in a good way. I have had the thrustmaster h.e.a.r.t controller for almost a week and I like it.

Extreme accuracy and resposiveness.
The controller looks funky with the black/white design which I rather like. The controller is quite light, making it feel a little cheap. I wish there was some rubber coating or better texture on the handles as the plastic is a bit too smooth. Ergonomically speaking, the controller itself fits well in my medium-sized hands. However, the trigger buttons cut sharply outwards digging into my fingers, which became uncomfortable and even a bit painful in games that require continuous pressure such as driving games. Also, the back buttons underneath the controller are in a place that makes them easy to press accidentally, and so I had to continuously adjust my grip. I decided to disable them. The ABXY buttons, thumbsticks, and D-pad, are in the traditional places, so no complaints there. There are buttons for RGB, mapping, and social medial control above the system and select buttons, which I kept pressing by mistake. Hopefully this won’t be an issue once muscle memory builds up. I appreciate the 3.8mm audio/mic which works well and drives most headset I have. Also, the vibration is just as good as the official controller. The ABXY buttons are a joy to press and are extremely responsive. I never suffered a missed press. The button travel is rather shallow, but this helps faster activation. The same goes for the hall effect thumbsticks. They are impressively accurate in that even a slight press will be registered without any drift whatsoever. This was super helpful in games where precision is key such as FPS and driving sims. The X-shaped D-pad also features mechanical actuators that gave me no false diagonal inputs, which is great for traditional fighting games. Unfortunately, the trigger and thumbstick buttons’ sensitivity gave me trouble when playing FPS competitively as actions occurred when I didn’t intend to, costing me performance and accuracy -and even some matches. There are some quality-of-life benefits that are welcome, such as the ability to create macros on the back buttons (M1, M2), changing LED color and intensity, muting mic, and managing headset/mic volume. In the end, the overall experience is OK. Playing adventure, RPGs, and casual games is great. If it wasn’t for the comfort or accidental presses in twitch-style games, this would have been a great HE controller for the right price.

Best Controller on the market
When I got my hands on the Thrustmaster HEART Controller, I was curious to see if it could live up to the hype. The main thing that caught my attention was its Hall Effect tech. This is supposed to eliminate stick drift, something I’ve dealt with this on a few other controllers, so the idea of a controller with zero stick drift was cool Right off the bat, I could tell the accuracy was on point. The controller claims to track within 0.01 degrees, which honestly sounded like overkill, but shooting and moving felt really nice and super smooth. The mechanical buttons are a SUPER nice touch, they feel so much nicer and essentially feel like a mechanical keyboard but with buttons. I LOVE the sound they make. The customization options were also a pleasant surprise. Using the ThrustmapperX software, I could remap buttons and tweak the thumbstick sensitivity, which is something I always enjoy. Plus, I could change the LED strip in the middle to different colors. The two extra buttons on the back are also programmable, which is awesome. I will say the software is very non-user friendly as of now and required a lot of exploring and tweaking. Would love to see some updates that simplifies it alot more. Design-wise, the controller has a unique look with its two-tone color scheme and LED strip running down the middle. I actually like the style, it’s flashy without being over-the-top, and it looks pretty sleek alongside my Xbox setup. The weight is pretty different from the OG xbox controller which took some getting used to and I really wish they added the textured grips on the side for better control. I really do hope they make a wireless version of this controller. While wired isn't a deal breaker, it is a very nice quality of life addition. Overall, I think the Thrustmaster HEART Controller is a solid choice. The Hall Effect sticks are a big improvement over standard designs, especially if you’re tired of stick drift ruining your experience. The customizability is a great bonus, and while the wired connection is a bit of a drawback, it’s not enough to turn me away. If you’re looking for something durable and precise, this is the controller for you.
