Title: Solid
Review: Ok, a few things to say about this controller and why I purchased it in the first place. I hope this review helps and sorry if it is a bit lengthy. I purchased this specific controller because originally I purchased a PowerA controller with the extra back buttons at my local Wal*Mart. I saw thousands of good reviews and stars on Amazon and so I thought why no. Due to the fact my original Xbox One controller was starting to feels its wear and tare from over the years. Less then 3 months later the left joystick wouldn't go forward and it would jitter. It felt cheaply made, like badly, creaking sounds all the time just from holding it. The power light wouldn't always be on, so I was unsure if I had it plugged in correctly. I kept my receipt and box for warranty and I contacted PowerA for a replacement, which took from time of contact till the arrival, just a day of two weeks.During that time I looked at this Recon controller and wasn't sure because of price was high but then it went down by $15. So heck yeah! Got it in the day after my PowerA replacement arrived. Tried it right away and WOW! Immediate and clear upgrade.1) The controller doesn't feel cheaply made, it feels really solid.2) Super Responsive, playing 1st person shooters and Elden Ring games, I had to adjust a bit because it was to accurate. I was over doing it and now I don't need to.3) Packaging was done right, registered it as well right away. Loved the braided cord and it being USB-C type just makes it so much more better. The Latency is so little, just light speed.4) Using for headset and trying everything out for the chat part is great, very helpful and love the layout of the buttons at the top instead of having to feel around on the bottom like others. Plus with the D-Pad part of the controller, I love how it isn't just UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT. It has the notches I guess you would say for upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right. It does make a difference, especially in side scrolling games like Street Fight and Mortal Kombat, which I personally do no use the joysticks for.I honestly wish I didn't originally cheap out with the PowerA, but glad that I learned a lesson and I hope this review helps others in decisions like this. I know Turtle Beach is just coming into the lime light of controllers now, but so far so good. I will give an update if something bad happens.

Title: Best Value Xbox Controller
Review: The features provided for the cost, even without a discounted priced, are why this controller is the best value for an Xbox controller currently on the market.Pros:Wired for zero input lag2 textured back buttons (I prefer buttons - not paddles)LightweightTurtle Beach audio enhancements + mute button built into controllerCons:Type C connection with no locking system at the controller (work around provided later)Don’t let the lightweight frame fool you into thinking this is a cheap controller that is going to be trash like a madcatz. This controller has been phenomenal for 3 years now. My favorite part is the fact that you get Turtle Beach audio enhancements on the controller - something you could only get with TB Elite Headset (not worth the money) or via their Audio Controller ($130 + you can use any headset you like). Big fan of Super Human Hearing in my HyperX Cloud II’s and now I get that premium feature in a $60 controller??? This came out at the perfect time too as the Series X dropped their optical out port, which was a requirement for the $130 TB Audio Controller.The only bad thing I have found so far is of course the type c connection will sometimes disconnect in the middle of gaming, but there is a fix and this will also help you maintain a healthier female type c port on your controller. You must make sure that your wire is coming into your controller from an angle as horizontally even as possible. YOUR CORD SHOULD NOT COME FROM UNDERNEATH YOU BETWEEN YOUR LEGS AND THEN BEND TO GO INTO THE CONTROLLER. The tension on that bend is what wears out the female port, so make sure your cord is generally going straight into your controller when you game and you will be fine.The best way to do a wired controller connection is to have a locking system at the controller port and then have a magnetic quick disconnect on the braided wire just before the USB that goes into your console or whatever power supply you choose. This prevents disconnections and also prevents you from damaging your controller or anything else if you try to walk away with the controller still in your hands. Don’t see any brands using this method though lol

Title: Best for the Price
Review: It's annoying trying to find a decent PC controller that isn't in the $100-$200 range. Let's say you want a pretty good controller that does the bare minimum but you want something durable and feels good to use. Almost impossible. Everything comes with a ridiculous amount of features from trigger tension switches, audio/mic controls, extra buttons in general, RBG lighting, etc etc...Just a lot of them have an unnecessary amount of clutter and usually they are features that you'll never use and knocks the price margin up drastically. Yet cheap controllers are terrible with their toggle sticks dying out fast, their buttons sticking or losing their input feel, and the whole nine yards of degradation.This is a great controller in the basic fields. The wire is good and sturdy, definitely excels among ones that use like a cheap USB-C plug that you'll damage in a week and the cord itself is fabric threaded which is just nice overall protection to it. It also tries to keep features to a bare minimum so extra buttons don't kill hand comfortability. It doesn't have the most amazing grip in the world, but it is the standard so I'll consider it a plus. Trigger pull feels excellent and all buttons have a nice press. Toggle sticks also feel responsive and I don't see them losing their ability to stay stiff. Only thing I didn't like personally was how light it is. Though, I know a lot of people prefer their controllers to not have weight so you'll probably enjoy that.Overall, Turtlebeach made a really good cheap controller.

Review: Esse controle é incrível, um bom matérial, bom acabamento, várias formas de configurar, muito fácil de usar, ótimo para jogos de corrida e fps. Eu uso no Forza e F1 mudou minha Gameplay, configurei os botões traseiros para passar a macha, amei esse controle, não troco por outro. No nível o controle elite do Xbox com um preço maravilhoso.
