Best Xbox Controller-28 Compared in 3 Price Points (Ultimate Showdown)

[@godofthunder5051]

The video we have all been waiting for

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

As mentioned on social media last night it should have been a 31-way shootout not a 28, as I forgot to bring out the Nacon Revolution X, Nacon Pro Compact, and Cinch Custom. I have dedicated reviews for both Nacon linked at the bottom of this comment, and this pinned comment explains how the controllers fit into this comparison. These controllers may have RIG in the title which is Nacon’s newest branch of gaming peripherals. They are both wired and have Dolby Atmos virtual surround support from the 3.5mm headphone jack AND a subscription/activation to Dolby Access (a $15 value) on PC and Xbox consoles to be able to use them. Keep in mind this won’t sound as good as native Dolby supported headphones, soundbars, surround, etc..but it DOES sound very good as seen/heard in both my reviews. In North America Nacon has a 1 year warranty, but every other region gets 2 years. The Pro Compact is physically small, which is good it you have tiny hands but even if you have average/medium hands it is still pretty comfortable due to having full size thumb sticks with anti-friction rings, and oversized face buttons which I LOVED due to being big and flat. Mini retails for $50 but is only $30 only Amazon currently depending on which of the 3 color you choose. If you need a cheap controller this is a good option, however it has a permanently attached 9.8 foot cable and isn’t as comfortable (for me) as almost all of it’s competition. The Revolution X is still its launch price of $100 in white or black but goes on sale occasionally, and was $80 during my initial review. As for the cons slippery included thumb sticks, slick plastic shell with no rubber grips, a weird bumper design, and no trigger stops or smart/digital triggers, an expected staple of a $100 pro controller. On the positive this gamepad has 4 comfy rear buttons sunken into the rear shell flush you can map on the fly, the thumb sticks performed good in gamepad tester and have anti friction rings like its cheaper mini brother, the application on PC was quite good, and the Dpad and face buttons are large and clicky. A decent option at $100 however it feels and looks pretty cheap despite controllable RGB around the thumb sticks and I wouldn’t recommend it over the ThrustMaster Eswap X in the mid tier. I didn't recommend the PS5 Dualsense from Cinch Customs and the Xbox offering is no different. Their Xbox pre builts when they do have some in stock vary from $190 for no rear paddles (how, just how), $230 for a 2 rear button, and $330 for a 4 rear button (without a remap chip, again very overpriced). The controller builder on mobile phone is terrible to navigate, PC works better but is cosmetically ugly while creating a controller with VERY LIMITED options and parts. $182 for just 4 rear buttons on a stock black looking controller, and there is no remap chip available just like Aim so you are stuck with static rear button mappings you select in the builder. Build time is 6-8 weeks or 1-3 weeks for $30, and you only recieve a 30 day warranty or extend it to a still short 6 months for $30. On top of being overpriced, not having as much customization, a fairly long build time and short warranty, my biggest complaint is Cinch puts their 4 rear buttons stupidly close to each other, even if you are covering all 4 rears with just your middle fingers it feels like you are covering 2 buttons because they are so darn cramped. As with PS, for Xbox Cinch is at the bottom of the custom controller recommendation list.

[@nicholasforth3586]

But the sticks have 100% accuracy. Its the best controller I’ve used as far as accuracy goes. Eswap s is good too, but i went through 4 in a month due to some sort of technical issue they seem to have where the thumb sticks intermittently lose connection with the rest of the controller, so i finally gave up on it.

[@bohmfalk]

Bought the Nacon Revolution X a few days ago, it arrived yesterday. I was excited to open it up and test it out, was disappointed at the size. I have average size man-hands, and the controller is just uncomfortably large. Like, width-wise, I feel like it's built for longer fingers than mine. And the rear buttons (paddle spots) were just uncomfortable.

[@ezakustam]

Please pin your comment. It's very important, and it's getting buried.

[@AugustusGray]

On my third elite now, and when you get a good one it’s a fantastic controller. And if you don’t, at least Microsoft sends you a replacement within a month (in my experience). If they offered Hall effect sensors on their controllers in the future, I would be tempted to spend some of these outrageous prices you see in the controller market nowadays

I got one of their custom Design Lab built Elite Series 2 controllers and had to exchange it 3 times, finally ending up with a refund on the 4th send back due to partially unresponsive A/Y buttons. I actually think this one (not stick drift, bumpers, etc.) is an actual design flaw with the controller that maybe a lot of folks just don't notice? Big sadge though, the controller is otherwise nigh perfect?

[@RyanRayner13]

I think I'm on my 10th...maybe even more? elite series 2. They tend to reach a point where they become unusable for one reason or another at around 3 months for me. The longest one lasted me was maybe 6 months, and it was the white 'core' version. I only have to pay about $50 Everytime I need a new one thanks to Best buys insurance, I know I could just go through the manufacturer warranty when they break, but 50 dollars isn't a lot of money for me especially since I can get a brand new one the same day the last one breaks. I do use plenty of other controllers for specific use cases, but the elite 2 is my daily driver. I think I might try that new turtle beach controller instead next time my elite 2 breaks though.

Since my first Xbox One until my Series X, i actually had 8 (!) original Xbox Controllers turned into Stick Drift within a few months. It was always the left analog stick (used for running). So i was very happy to hear about the Gamesir G7 SE, the first Xbox Controller with Hall Sensor joysticks. And i really don't get why even premium Xbox Controllers still don't have this. Potentiometers are the weak spot of any controller, soon or later.

[@g0ggy]

Man the fact that none of the high tier controllers come with hall effect sticks just seems insane to me.

[@asstroh]

Great video, as always. Love your content. I do think you have it backwards, though -- regarding the Elite II units sold, and quality control issues. The reason such a high number have been sold (aside from being Microsoft's official top-tier controller, and its prevalence/stock in brick-and-mortar) was the "quality control" (strategic obsolescence, in my opinion...) issues. I had an Elite I for 1.5 years before I needed a replacement (well cared-for). When I "upgraded" to an Elite II, it lasted me 2 months. Warranty swapped for a brand new one - 3 months. Endless issues with stick-drift and non-responsive bumpers. Gave up on them awhile back. Hope the rumors of their improvement are true..

I've got the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma Xbox controller and it's the most comfortable thing I've ever used even considering the back buttons. I actually think they're better because I'm not using the kung-fu grip anymore. The extra bumpers are a huge plus too. I liked it so much that I sold a kidney and bought the PS5 version too. I play a lot of Elder Scrolls Online on PC so having 6 extra buttons instead of 4 makes it perfect for it.

[@KID_CHAMELEON]

I just got the Instinct Pro last week after exchanging about 12 Elite Series 2 that all had stick drift out of the box and I absolutely love it. It's definitely overpriced though. It should be around $150 in my opinion. Although it's quite expensive, I'm definitely digging it more than the Elite Series 2 overall. Also, there was a card in the box that said the warranty was increased to a full year instead of 6 months. Definitely consider this controller if you have no problem dropping $210 on a controller.

MASSIVELY IMPORTANT TIP HERE. In ds4 windows adjusting Max Output to something lower like 95% or even 80% and then putting sensitivity to 105% or 120% respectively will give you NEAR PERFECT circularity. The lower you put Max Output however decreases the accuracy so it's not recommended to go below 90%. It would be nice if you could explore this more btw lol

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

I am doing a DS4 windows tutorial in the near future, and I will cover the adjustment you mentioned along with a bunch of other useful tweaks. I’d also like to clearify what you’re saying would SHOW good results in game pad tester but generally FEEL like ass due to not having 20% of your outer movement on the stick, and using a higher sense to try to counteract that. Cool party trick to show your buddies a low result in Gamepad tester…not advised for actual gaming.

I recently picked up the Gulikit KingKong 2 Pro as well as the Gamesir T4 Kaleid. I'm using them as PC X-box controllers on Steam. I like both of them quite a bit....maybe the T4 the most. The Gulikit feels higher quality and more solid, plus those triggers are the smoothest I've ever felt, but the T4 has better touch on all the other buttons. The thing I don't like about both of them is the View button is placed badly. You can't really hit it without bumping the left thumbstick. One of the biggest reasons I got the T4 was so I could remap a rear button to the View button.

The Nacon RIG Revolution X has been very solid and truly the best one ever for durability and no stick drift. FYI, they did just come out with a new one that has hall effect sticks. I think my "RIG" version has them, that's why its lasted this long, someone said to get the one that says RIG because they thought that one has the hall effect sticks.

Battle Beaver: Love the stick tension and accuracy on these but the back buttons effing suck Dual sense edge: Currently my main This thing just feels so good in your hands. The half moon paddles feel amazing, but in competitive Apex Legends I need 4 paddles not 2. The function keys are pretty much useless. Only a slight stick drift after 6 months of heavy use but hey, I can replace those at anytime for $20. Gamesir G7 SE: This controller feels awesome for the price, but there is like NO AIM ASSIST with this controller in games. I don't know what it is, but if I am playing on controller then... I want aim assist. Elite Series 2: Stick drift. New or used. Always stick drift. The thumbstick tension adjuster and paddles are the only good things about this controller Razor Wolverine v2 chroma: My god this controller is comfy and the extra bumpers is just pure genius. I loved everything about this controller, BUT and a big BUT, the factory deadzone! even setting it in the software to 1 is just awful. Aim feels very muddy for fine movements. Thrustmaster eswap X Pro: When you said the thumbsticks feel amazing, they do! SO very accurate, but there is something about the sensitivity curves on these that don't provide linear aim consistency for me. I found myself going back to the Dual Sense Edge. Scuf Instinct Pro: Stick drift right out of the box, but the thumbstick tension feels great for aiming. I personally didn't like the new paddle system. Aim PS5 Pro: Currently on expedited order. Used my code Stallions baby. Will update my review soon. Thanks for putting out great content on these controllers. Not everyone can afford to try out several controllers like you and I!

[@acebirdjohn]

Hey dude, love your video's, so consider me a subscriber! Is that an Ikea board behind you? And how do you mount your controllers to it? I have a decent collection of controllers lying around, would be nice to mount them behind my monitor. Keep up the good work!

[@kenshiroson4893]

These controllers are amazing, and if money was no object I'd snag 5 of em. But with my gamesir se hall effect wired controller do to arrive any day now. I don't think I'm buying anything without halleffect sticks ever again.

i am looking into getting a xbox aimcontroler for my pc but i only can find the old reviews not any that are for the xbox series x version. are you going to make a update review any time soon?

[@xaviernq1228]

Gamestop once had the gambit on sale for $40. Got one and for that price is really good.

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

Damn that’s an insane deal !

[@esportsmiyagi]

In your opinions what controller for xbox playing on console so i can't overclock is best. I enjoy the elite series 2 but was wondering if theres better options. I enjoy the thrustmaster but hate the back button design. Ive hear the victrix is pretty good along with the scuf instinct but heard the scuf is costy and the back buttons suck but triggers are amazing. Then theres the razer v2 or v1. Unless theres any other

[@Alex-oy6wb]

Thanks for this. What controller would you recommend for street fighter 6 on xboxsx?

[@SaltMakerE]

Fantastic video. I was hoping for some advice. I have larger than average hands, and I find the stock xbox series x controller not nearly as comfortable as the larger xbox 360 controllers. Can you recommend some type of add on grip, or wrap, or something to that effect that would bulk the controller up in a meaningful way? I see various different types of grips on amazon, but it's plastered with so many different one's it's hard to tell what one might be best.

[@outbakbandit9879]

Dude much appreciated!

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

No problem friend

[@robertopadula7847]

Really good video :) Which one do you think is the best for playing Warzone in xbox serie x? Also paying attention to input lag, thanks

I'm looking for a good cod controller. Is the elite series 2 good?

[@BLNKT.]

This was great thank you! Is there a best play station controller video too?

[@Gamerlingual]

I’ve used the Elite Series 2 rear paddles and they made my index and middle fingers numb. It’s almost like starting carpal tunnel syndrome. Then I played without using them and I could game again. Would rear buttons help solve the issue of losing that feeling with the paddles? I mostly play FPS games and thought maybe the 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth or Pro 2 might be a good replacement. But they only have 2 buttons 😕

[@PickledPreserves123]

Unrelated to the controller stuff but the voice you do around the 42:48 mark of the video is really funny/different from your own voice, not many people can do that. Have you ever considered doing any voice acting work?

[@stocksy5798]

Hey mate, cheers for the information still struggling a bit on what to select… the only game I play is Rocket League. I don’t care for back buttons, only use Xbox layout. I go through the standard Xbox controller every 3 - 6 months as the LB button always breaks as I use it for boosting. Any recommendation for durability when it comes to this in the Xbox range?

[@ColtinBriggs]

What controller(s) for Xbox has/have the lowest input lag? Or are they pretty much all 8ms?

[@jimmys4708]

Hello there Mr Gamer Heaven I was wondering what controller to buy. The Vetrix Gambit or Gamesir G7?

[@casino9240]

Go with the gamesir!

[@alanbenyamin487]

Even though it's classified as a switch controller, the T4k technically should of been thrown in the budget list as my pc recognizes it as an X Box controller 🙃

[@Alfredox123]

nice video, i think im gonna gonna go with the gamesir g7 for my pc, will there be a best playstation controller video like this one?

[@trappedintimesurroundedbye5477]

you ever think of reviewing a sterling wheel? that Logitech Pro G with 11nm and True Force seems like it would be up your reviewing alley 😂 it's nice real nice would love to see you review it. But it's pricey so I understand if you don't but I think you could definitely make a entertaining video with that. take care and have a great day.

[@GamerHeavenOfficial]

Hey 👋. I reviewed 3 wheels on the channel in the past, no Logitech but that IS coming along with more racing sim content 🙂

[@trappedintimesurroundedbye5477]

@@GamerHeavenOfficial nice 👌 👍 👏. you definitely make good content. you definitely have a presents for the camera. just remember only keeping doing it if it scratches that creative ich and helps put you in a better mental state as soon as it doesn't back away do it all on your terms for others to enjoy don't feel obligated by comments and a KZbin algorithm that gets unhealthy quick. Anyway you don't need me to tell you that but it's also good to get positive feedback on your ridiculous shit that way you know it's working 😜 take care and have a great day.

My elite controller just went in on me 😮‍💨 thanks bro bro

[@upthecreekyt]

What'd you replace it with? My 5 year old scuf is finally giving out on me. And the prices have gotten a little silly.

[@Immanuelm.8]

@upthecreekyt I got a new one from Microsoft, but I customized them so they would be okay. Try to check the sight and see if you can customize it.

[@polsinstructor9174]

Still can't believe not a single hall effect sensor controller with 4 back buttons. Elite version 3 anyone? Also, might wanna do a video on reWASD compatibility. It reprograms the back buttons of a gamepad for pc, but only works with the elite and a couple other controllers.

[@onof9523]

[@SkeetInTheEar]

Vader 3 pro, need a brook xb2 though

[@humbullbeast]

Wow its crazy that you reviewed the Power A. Got my first one from gamestop maybe 3 years ago. My first one gave issues then I went to Gamestop and they gave me the newer v2 controller. I say you get what you pay. A great controller but yes the paddles do become an issue after a while! I need to try the 3rd version now!

[@iiiajayiii1978]

❤ the vid, I wish the battle beaver would up their customer service, their warranty and lower their price. These simple changes would surely push ut too the top? spot

[@rickyjulian5897]

what controller would you recommend for someone who loves the xbox style controller, but wants to be able to overclock said controller on pc?

[@aviatinggamer9051]

My problem with the elite series 1 (I had 2-3) was the rubber grips kept peeling off after a year or so. I recently got a scuff instinct pro and I love it so far. I will probably get an elite series 3 whenever those come out, but probably 6 months to a year after a launch. Aka, when they get done beta testing

[@colorsyncharcade]

Hi GamerHeaven thank you for recommending the Gamesir G7 SE controller because I am looking to buys a controller with hall effect thumbsticks, because stick drift is a bit of a problem for me. Had problems with stick drift with controllers in the past.

[@theexpatgunner]

Will be picking up my ThrustMaster eSwap Pro S later today. Looking forward to some Warzone action using NXG mini sticks.

[@dubbuster7977]

Hey I’m curious on how your eSwap S is working? I bought one as well I while back and within a couple weeks I noticed the thumbsticks had already developed a significant jitter. So I bought another set of thumbsticks and those too developed jitter in only a couple weeks. On top of that I noticed my A button would do extra presses randomly after only about a month of use. Is yours still working fine, or have you since trashed it for something else? I really wanted to like this controller, but from what I’ve used myself and what I’ve heard from others who bought them they’re just junk.

[@lloyddavies4639]

Bought the turtle beach recon kept turning off after 3 weeks, so I’m stuck between the Victrix gambit or the razer wolverine v2 chroma, which one shall I get? Or any other recommendations I’m on Xbox series X

[@rthythmical_flow]

Hey 👋🏾 gotta a question what you say is the best controller for gaming with no extra buttons because I like crawl trigger stops I don’t mind having tho and money is no problem

[@Awakeonuwu]

You are literally a GOD.

Shit I’ll take that lol

[@KeegBennett]

hey gamer heaven love the content for controllers i was wondering if you'd be doing a scuf envision review soon my birthday is on the 21st and was gonna get either the Xbox Elite 2 or the scuf instinct but saw the envision and wanted more feedback on it before making my choice haha

[@jameshastings6538]

Is the polling rate on Xbox Series X limited? I’m trying to figure out if the controller speed matters or not. Was looking at the GameSir G7 SE and wondering if you can take advantage of the 1000hz on Xbox

[@konstantinospolemis3087]

What do you guys think about the gamesir g7 se for someone who wanna play fortnite as competitive using a controller? Unfortunately, the controllers with triggers stop are out of my budget.
