It would cost almost double if it were wireless (MS licensing fees), which is fine, but then you're competing with scuff on price and performance. There's a huge under served market at the sub $100 price point and TB has found the sweet spot. Comparing this to my Razor Wolverine TE, which I'm on my second one in a year (first one replaced under warranty after only 3 months) and the right click stick is starting to go. I'll probably try the TB seeing that it's half the price, if it makes it 6 months it'll be worth it. I look forward to their quad back button version, it'll be a wolverine TE killer.

[@lightningjet9444]

I’ve had this controller for a few months now and I’ve run into some problems. First, the cable that comes with the controller has gotten really bad and I’m at the point where the controller is disconnecting twice every 15 minutes. Also second, I’ve had this problem that I know isn’t a problem with my headset as I used my headset on the standard Xbox controller and it worked great, but my headset keeps on randomly exploding with static and I’ve nearly shit myself 3 times as it is so loud and so sudden. Also thirdly, my friends keep on saying that they can hear a low hum from my mic and yet again I know this isn’t a problem with my headset as I tried it on the standard Xbox controller and I didn’t have this problem. So my thoughts on this controller is that it’s great out of the box and works great for a few weeks, but then a multitude of problems start kicking in with your audio. Then again this is turtle beach’s first attempt at the controller market so you can’t be TOO mad at them. Like this comment so others can see because people need to know what they are potentially buying

[@shathan123]

Do you disconnect and reconnect the controller wire where it plugs into the controller often? Or do you keep it plugged in at all times? Does it ever tug at the wire where it’s connected? Just hoping that this could have lead to the issue (even though it should be built to withstand some of that anyway) because the thought of it happening out of the blue when you just leave it plugged in all the time like I do is unsettling seeing as how I have one on the way right now. PowerA controllers are great plugged in (no issues at all with the connection) but have had bad luck with stick drift on them days/weeks after purchase.

Just leaving my review here for anyone who wants a detailed experience. (Ive o my had it for a month, so keep that in mind) I’ve used so many controllers.. spent $200 on the elite 2. Ive had THREE power fusion A controllers. The elite 2 lasted a year. Ended up having MAJOR issues with the left stick not responding when moving forward. And then horrible issues with the right stick and stick drift. I beat myself up for not buying a warranty and felt so bad spending that much money for a controller to last only a year. From that moment, I searched for a cheaper option which led me to the power fusion A controller. The power fusion A was a great controller.. but the BIGGEST issue was the LOOSE puddles on the back. Make one false move and bend it the wrong way.. BOOM. The thing that holds the paddle in place would BREAK. This happened with EVERY single one I had. And I owned 3 of them. I learned from my mistake and got the warranty and just kept replacing it. The last time it happened I went to Best Buy and they didn’t have same controller in stock.. long behold I tried the turtle beach controller instead. I’ve owned the turtle beach recon for 1 solid month, using the controller every day. I haven’t had ANY issues with stick drift just yet. I love how LIGHT the controller is. Some people like weight when they play.. but I like how it doesn’t have much weight to it. Makes it easier to hold for long periods of time. I LOVE THE AUDIO FEATURES. The “superhuman” sound boosts all the high frequencies making it easier to hear footsteps, sound cues etc. (warzone) switching over from 4 paddles to 2 paddles was different, but it only took a few days to adjust how I held the controller so it wasn’t a big deal. I love the pro aim feature as well. Being able to adjust the tightness of the right stick was great for precise aim and control. Power fusion A didn’t have that option so it was great. There are no trigger stops.. but since the controller has been so good.. that doesn’t bother me much. The way you can fix the EQ to taste is a great touch. And the way the right stick re centers.. phenomenal. Paying $60 isn’t bad at all, and I have the warranty JUST in case I want to replace it. I know it’s only been a month.. but I’ve been blown away by the performance of this controller. 🙏🏽

How is it now? Does it have any problems?

[@noroyalbloodline3983]

Are you a causal gamer or like to sweat?

[@kevindevos4698]

For the people that got their hands hurt by the orginal series X controller and have this one. Is this good and do you advise it? I hear its more like the dualsense, which I would really love.

[@amieabc]

With the new recon headset, do you get the buzzing with the recon controller? I’ve got the this controller today and my turtle beaches are buzzing

[@blesner1983]

After one week I have stick drift on this controller. It is garbage. After my experiences with Razer, TB, Nacon and Scuff, I recomend sticking with first party.

[@spaceiranees406]

Worst joystick ever no quality at all

[@ItsJustChase]

Cool to see audiophile headset in a review like this, I am like you with IEMs and headphones as you are with controllers. I have so many sets for music and was looking forward to use this on my pc and xbox.

[@hikmetsaglam9329]

Hey the techne I have a question about which mice I should get I watched all of your reviews for these mice but I’m stuck on which one to pick The 3 mice I want are the Logitech g502 wired The basilisk x hyper speed wireless Or the steel series rival 600

[@Juice8767]

I just snagged this on a whim because it's on sale for 45 bucks and I'm surprised at how solid the build is and I'm excited to put it through the trenches

[@Izzy-hm4zn]

How is it still?

[@GORILLA_PIMP]

How is it now?

[@Airths1]

Is there any latency input delays if you wanted to be competitive with triggers or buttons?

[@manfreds6389]

😍 Thx 4 the info, just what i need !! 😁👍

[@carucen]

thanks for this Rew^^ huge help

[@SNAKES600]

I just bought a recon 200 headset can i just plug it in this controller without the 3.5mm adapter?

[@twitchie2245]

yeah but how is stick drift and and triggers after a couple months?

[@firefistx7477]

The problem with elite controllers is trying not to misclick. I also distrust pushing the paddles trusting that the input was input. Like double pressing a button to make sure

[@demarcoadkins]

Thanks for a great review on this controller! I would be using this controller for my Xbox One! and some of the features were really helpful, I tend to play a lot of fighting games so the joysticks and the keypad are really good! I love how the keypad has extra layers on them sidestepping for fighting games would be a lot easier with this, I also like how you went into detail about the controllers features, keep up the good work man.

[@LezBhonest91]

I have been using the black new turtle beach the easy plug and play like you said but yet I can’t hear anything going on in my Xbox my audio is none

[@PhilMGCollins]

Does the Recon controller have rumble motors in (specifically) the triggers?

[@OGTASHMONEY]

Just ordered one, can't wait to try out the new stick drift feature

[@nathanpino3192]

thxxx for this video now i know that i've gotta buy it

[@19Kspargur]

I was wondering about this controller and after watching this I just ordered it. Thanks

[@TheTechne]

thank you for watching

[@The_power22]

I just bought it at the PX and can’t wait to try it The bottom buttons would be perfect for GTA5 when opening your cell phone

[@raymondwijnacker4202]

Guys I need some help. I used to play on cheap PDP controllers then got a Power A controller for the back pedals. Biggest let down for me was that the thumbsticks were a bit smaller, less accuracy. Now it got some drift and I'm looking at this one. Does it have bigger thumbsticks then the Power A controllers??

[@Rakesh-vq9zm]

How about the back buttons. I use all the 4 buttons in Xbox elite controller . I am thinking of getting this one instead of the elite one . Is it easy to use all the 4 paddles with that pattern??

[@CronusChronicles]

Enjoyed your passion! Subbed

[@Mcloun]

Is it still worth buying a year later tho i been using the elite series 2 and loved it i only recently heard about this controller and wondered if its still worth getting

[@dontfunkwiththajazzybeatz]

I just bought one today, currently having a smoke and I will test it out... I like the feel of it in my hands, it reminds me of a Madcatz controller (remember those??!!) I had back in the day for the og xbox, small n comfy, it allows for quick reactions.. First time with remappable buttons too, which I have been wanting for a while.. I will let you know how I get on!!!

[@colerichards861]

I got mine for Christmas but it’s got drift could u make a vid on how to fix it

[@OneoftheCaesars]

I have the action button set for A. But while holding A I can't look around in free mode games. I fixed before where the sensitivity was fine but I have no idea how I did it. Help? Lol

[@DarkAlbino]

I have dolby atmos on xbox and the blackshark v2 pros I'm wondering if the custom eq on the controller will conflict with DA

[@leeporter6849]

Is this like a AMP/DAC in the controller ? Will it increase the volume of a normal headset epos H6pro ?

[@Psmgamer]

I definitely gonna order one as I been wanting to get one since I need a second controller. Does the white get dirty easily? I know there's a black one that looks better.

[@derekanderson5622]

CAN ANYONE HELP? So my elite pro won’t give me audio when plugged into the new recon controller.

[@josephmercer2782]

might try seeing if it needs an update but idk if wired controllers require that

[@isaiahhouser2737]

Does this controller work with wireless headsets as well? I have the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2.

[@austind9222]

The gen 2 pairs with the Xbox. Not the controller. So yes it will work just fine.

[@GaziGhostism]

Is it necessary for the controllers to be plugged in to the xbox? Or it functions just as the normal controller.

[@CreepyRecordings]

My regular Xbox s controller started drifting after 6 months. I wanna buy a new controller should I buy this one or the original Xbox controller? The price dofferece is not big
