    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.

    Owned 2 of these remotes. They all seem to have the same issue. Left trigger takes on attributes of the right trigger. You aim using the left trigger, and without pressing the right trigger, it fires. You can not fix it, even by assigning the left tigger attributes to back buttons. Returned it and bought a Gamesir 7se.

    Quick question. I use this controller on PC and it seems that the controller itself switches off if either not used for a while or if the PC enters sleep mode and is then switched back on. The only way i could tell to switch it back on is by disconnecting the USB at either end and replugging it. Is there a fix to this as i don't want unnecessary wear on the cable?

    I am on my third controller in about 1 in a half years. My right analog keeps getting very bad stick drift, same thing has happened two times now. Im almost expecting it to happen again but oh well.
    Can you explain to me what the icon to the right of the glowing controller icon is? the circle with the aim on it? what is that another mode?

      I understand that this controller doesn't have a dead zone on the sticks, so you could try to adjust the dead zone in the game options of the game you are playing, might fix the 'drift' problem.

    The fact that it doesn’t have trigger locks and won’t work with wireless headsets, kills it for me. Don’t really want my headset and controller plugged in. They could of left a lot of the other stuff off, and added wireless headset functionality, extra paddles, and trigger locks.

      @@suprhero1 That's why I didn't purchase it. I'm not saying it is a bad controller. I never said I hated it. I just prefer certain features on my controllers. I just want others to know that it doesn't truly support wireless headsets, and that it doesn't have trigger locks. These features are important to some people. Mainly my comment was meant to be a way for someone to make an informed decision about purchasing this controller. If you don't need these features or don't prefer them that's fine.

    NOT for MW2 2022. Personally I don’t like the controller. It felt so slow and unresponsive. The sound portion of it was okay. I could barely hear footsteps if at all. It’s function as a controller it’s too slow for me. The triggers, bumper buttons and all of the others almost felt like a regular controller. The texture on the grips I could barely feel them nor did it serve a purpose for me. I have tough skin.

Don't buy this POS controller if you intend to use it on pc, in less than a week it will disconnect while in the middle of a game, this happens almost every 5 - 15 mins even if you try to reconnect the usb c cable, stay far away from this shit, even my 20 dollar chinese controller I bought on amazon has lasted longer than this crappy shit! look it up on google you will see so many people having this issue.

      Need to fix your windows settings. I use my recon on PC with Steam games. Windows 10 on 6 core AMD laptop and no problems at all. I also use the recon 200 and recon 500 if I forget to charge the 200. Just bought a spare recon controller as they are now replacing it with a wireless version. Great controller.
