HYPR Recon Xbox Pro Controller Review-Best Rear Buttons, Longer Warranty
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2024
- Following the heat of the HYPR PS5 DualSense review, it's Xbox's turn to recieve some pro controller love. Alot of my praise carries over, and the company has included stick drift in the warranty since we last spoke. What really puts a smile on my face is the rear button system despite 2 gripes.

Hypr has Hall effect joysticks now. Can you review one of those controllers?
love watching these, calms the mental. thank you Kevin for the great content❤️
Would love to see you get one with the Hall Effect sticks in it to review. They have an option to add them in the custom builder now.
i agree !!! with the lack of labeling, i like my buttons marked or etched as you said, when they re not the controller looks bootleg and cheap, plus there are times when having the labels help, when you are learning a game, especially when you have to map or configure your controller.
you have made me a ocd mad man seeing all these options and tweaks lol
Can't stop won't stop 😂. Caught that reference before the cutaway.
hell yeah man
cant wait for your raikiri pro review! hoping asus found a way to increase the polling rate to 250hz stock to match ps4 controllers instead of xbox's stock 125hz.
that controller really looks amazing id like to try one.
That man used a Young Gunz reference, respect 😂💯
I have to agree i like the overall feel of the Hex Advanced but the rear buttons aren’t as perfect as i would like, the insta triggers take more force than the scuf instinct as well. These look lower and might fit my hand better. It’s really hard beating the Elite 2, for real
Yeah I was pretty surprised there was no copyright issues or anything lol
I switched from KontrolFreek to Skull&Co thumb stick grips. They are VERY grippy. Feels amazing. But aggressive thumbs will make them fall off. Big pro is they dont damage the thumbsticks if its not a perfect size, as KontrolFreek can, from my experience.
I’d love to check them out , I’ve heard nothing but good things
@@GamerHeavenOfficial yes, would love to see your review for the Hall Effect Sensors option
thanks for this review, I just ordered one. Quite a bit cheaper than a SCUF controller and looks to be the same quality if not better.
How is it now and how long did it take to get there?
@@QualityEditz2took 3 months to arrive. far too late for a Christmas present. Also feels cheap quality
Man they need to get better polling rates for the Xbox controllers. Hopefully the elite 3 will have better polling rates
Ive started doing diy personally, its far cheaper, better looking and it teaches you soldering/desoldering. I have a bunch if spare controllers with stick drift wish me luck on desoldering them 😂.
Good luck buddy
Would be curious to know how the button placement/feel compares with the BattleBeaver’s.
First!!!!! Glad to see this review. I’ve been dying to hear about the HYPR Xbox controller.
It’s really good. 2 small cons, overall I’m liking it a lot so far. Have a good day Jack
@@GamerHeavenOfficial Thanks Kevin. Awesome work like always. Can’t wait for the next review for whatever controller lands on the Controller Captain’s desk.
3:05 nice rip bro lol
Have you tried Cinch Gaming they have the same rear button design, I purchased one and its great
Got a Hex Advanced controler two months ago, the back buttons were scrunchy/sticky. The extra joysticks i bought with the wouldnt even fit on it. The smart triggers you had to press hard to click them. And the stick drift after two months is not only bad, it literally jolts you around aggressively. Would not recommend.
Awesome video. Any comment on the new hyper flex rear paddles? Id love to know what u think of them
Well I googled hyperflex rear paddles and its wetsuits. As moist as the reviews can get around here, it’s Florida and the water stays warms
@@GamerHeavenOfficial Hey, so im talking specifically about the company HYPR controllers. If you go to their custom builder for the PS5 controllers, they allow you to select their "new" HYPR flex paddles instead of back buttons. These were just added in February so not many people know about it.
Another solid fuckin review
This is why I trust you 🙏
Thank you so much
The problem with mapping the back buttons on a controller, is that it has to clone from another button. Instead of adding another button. For example a keyboard have way more buttons than a controller, would be great if we could map one of the back buttons to be like one of the keyboard buttons instead of cloning the "A" button or something.
This is exactly what I do. I have the elite series 2, and using reWASD I bind my paddles to keyboard buttons
Getting a 3rd party pro controller that has dedicated buttons that show up on REWASD is great for example I have the Flydigi Vader 3 Pro that has Hall effect triggers and joysticks, two way mouse click triggers with 4 paddles and 2 extra buttons under the face buttons and I mainly play apex legends and even if you rebound buttons within apex a death box menu will override your bind so you can’t crouch or swap weapon but changing the back buttons to keyboard binds allows me to jump crouch and swap weapon all while being in a death box
I cannot imagine a situation where a console player would be using this controller on a pc. So really only pc players are concerned about this and really what game has that many extra game mechanics that will require you to remap your rear buttons to a button not on the controller.
@@JackLeftTown427 you just stated the most obvious shit ever. Also there are plenty of games where you need more then 14 buttons
@@JackLeftTown427 How is it to live in the center of the universe?
I play with this controller on a pc, ama I guess? lol.
Where do I start.. I can lay back in a resting chair instead of sitting near a desk? I have damage in both my middle finger and my right wrist, making pain when using mouse.
I have played on console since I was 2 years old, since sega mega drive, it gives me relaxed and nostalgia feeling.
Some games are actually better on gamepad than pc, and yes I know this is hard to believe so let me give a few examples: Piloting games like seamot in subnautica.
What else, oh yeah, the thumbsticks are analog :D. Instead of wasd making it either/or. It's actually really fun in many games if you want to walk instead of standing still or run.
Checked out the site and their grips for the custom Dualsense looks an awful lot like the grips on Extremerates back shell. Seems to be another texture tho, can you confirm? Asking cause I had the extreme rate ones and didn’t like the grips over time. So far Scuf has the best feeling grips imo (and your opinion too as I’ve learned watching way too many of your controller reviews, can you watch too many tho? Naw, I take that back).
Most of these controller companies are using ExtremeRate parts to varying degrees (Hypr, Cinch, Battle Beaver, Gamnetics...) with Scuf and Aim Controllers using proprietary parts. Companies with back buttons buy in bulk from ExtremeRate for the shells and even use their digital trigger systems to varying degrees. They just drill holes in the back of the shell and hot glue tactile switches in place.
So when you go to play a game, all I imagine is you with your hand on your chin, looking at your controller wall, and you say to yourself “Which controller shall I use today?”
are you saying OMNI's for xbox are the smallest kontrol freaks millimeter wise or are you saying xbox control freeks in general are the smallest? Trying to find one that fits snug to my power a advantage controller. The infernos (xbox version) dont fit snug enough and spin around the joystick when im moving a lot in COD MW2. Would appreciate your insight or if you have the power a advantage lumectra could you test the different freak thumbsticks please and let me know which ones fit snug. Thank you!
I recently ordered a Hypr Xbox Controller. It took about 9 weeks to get. Excellent controller but definitely would NOT recommend the interchangeable thumbsticks. They have their own design and the actual grip on them is awful. I was able to get hall effect thumbsticks from them though which is a huge plus. Stick with regular OEM thumbsticks if you do order a HYPR controller though.
do they regular thumbsticks fit control freaks?
Yes they do because the regular thumbstics are xobx x/s sticks. I upgraded to interchangeable which is their own design and it's not a good design
Connectivity issues aren’t covered in the warranty?, so if it’s losing sync to your Xbox then good luck getting them to replace it.
can i find somewhere a list of all ratings you gave to all controllers
Any updates on reviewing the Recon with Hall Effects ?
Dude can you start a gyro section. It's the future mannn.
Do these triggers allow you to still drive vehicles in warzone? Are there any issues?
Can you get the Hall effect joysticks or is that limited to the signature
Would you recommend this over a battle beaver controller?
Hey nice review. I'm looking at this controller but not sure if the kontrol freeks will fit over top of the interchangeable pro sticks thumbsticks on the customizable option. If the pro sticks work out well I'd just use those but if not I'd like to be able to slip some kontrol freeks over them but I'm not sure if they'd fit. There's an option for stock series x thumbsitcks and interchangeable pro sticks, do you know if kontrol freeks would work on either? Thanks
Yes they will. I had the interchangeable stick caps on the Hypr ps5 controller I reviewed. It’s that design that a lot of companies share , aim, hex, etc
@Gamer Heaven Thank you!
this men get sassy 💁♂️ when talking about controllers and when rating them specifically
Does overclock also work when using controller wirelessly?
your playvital thumb caps are not linked in the descritpion, unless im blind?
best controller channel in the game I don't give a fook
Bro you alwheys make me laugh 🤣🤣🤣👊🏾
Why are my base Dualsense 5's that have hundreds of hours run at an error rate of 7-8%... My HYPR HE controller came with 18% lol.
Hi, i just recently stumbeled across your channel and you seem to know whar you are doing. I need help with my controller, im using a Stadia gamepad. The bloetooth- mode is up and running, It works perfectly everywhere except on my PC. I connected it via bloetooth, my pc doesent recognize my controller as one. By troubleshooting on my own, I already tried all those steps mentioned in your troubleshooting-video from 11 months ago and nothing worked. Wired works though. Is this a Windows-sided issue? Do I need some external software to fix that? Can I use some sneaky hidden settings in steam or windows? I already searched a lot, but couldnt find anything.
i think theres some kind of driver that google released after Stadia closed to allow it to work as a standard USB/wireless controller. Look into that, may be related to your issues.
Where the power a moga xp ultra
wtf the website I went to doesn’t offer anything customizable
Whys his mustache so nice...
When does the ReWASD tutorial drop??
I wish I had an answer, it’s coming though I swear
do kontrol freaks work on the regular joysticks? the concaved
please let me know. Its a deal breaker for me if they aren't compatible with kontrol freaks on the standard concave thumbsticks
Im not sure if it was me but I tried to use your Kontrol Freeks code and it wasn't working. I tried Stallions, "Stallions", STALLIONS, I even tried Stallions@ check out and it was saying not valid. Sorry I wanted to use your code when I was getting a few things from them and it didn't work so I went ahead and check-out without using a discount code. Ether way great video as always.
The code is for the controller
In your opinion gamer heaven, what is the best xbox controller on the market in 2023?
The one I reviewed on April 1st 🥇
@@GamerHeavenOfficial thrustmaster?
@@thompsonjamal24 i dont know why he wouldnt just say the controller…probably wants you to go through all his vids looking for it…lame
Filipino-made!!
👍
Can you remap the back buttons to the "window view" ?
No you can’t
Thanks!
You need to check out cinch gaming controllers i don’t own one I own a hexgaming ultra X but cinch gaming controllers look literally the same like the recon controller you reviewing I swear they are literally the same thing 😂😂
I reviewed the Cinch Ps5 controller on the channel. Are you referring to an xbox controller from them?
Yes
It’s literally looks and kinda does the same thing as this controller you’re reviewing
I ordered a ps5 controller on march 23 and it has not shipped to this day. This is my first pro controller purchase so I don’t know if this is to be expected or not. Either way I emailed them 4 times over the past month to cancel my order to buy a scuf or the dual sense edge instead and they haven’t replied to any of them. But after watching this vid and seeing stick drift is covered in the warranty I think I’ll be good. Anyone else have experience with hypr or scuf?
That’s insanely bad customer service your talking about , sorry to hear you went through that. Did they finally refund you or send a controller, or make it right? What controller did you end up going with ?
@@GamerHeavenOfficial nope, I haven’t heard from them at all. I looked up my order number on the website and it was in “quality testing” on April 25 and that was the last update. But if i manage to cancel I’ll try a scuf bc I need 4 paddles. I also used your code 🐐
@@gabrielruvalcaba7892 Hey man, I would advice to wait because scuf's back paddle design is not as good as back buttos. You can't use the Scuf paddles simultaneously and you would need to wait a few weeks too for it to arrive
@@Flowkeyz ya I use different fingers for every button/paddle so I think I’ll just wait on my hypr to get to me
@@gabrielruvalcaba7892 Have you received your controller yet? Thinking of ordering a Hypr, but don't want to wait 3-4 months for it to ship.

Very unrelated - but what hair products do you use?
The cheapest stuff on Walmart grocery delivery 🚚 shampoo, hair spray
The black&orange controller he is showing is 300 bucks...I just built it
315.83 to be exact, but it's with hall effects thumbsticks
You Italian bro??
Can a company make an original controller instead of customizing stock controllers at some point. It's sad. Every controller since the introduction of Bluetooth has issues with the face buttons on angles. Bluetooth, Elite 2 and Series controllers all fall victim to this. This also translates to controllers like this, Scuf and so on.
i believe why companies make controllers using the base xbox and playstation controllers is because that's what game developers base it off. Thats why third party controllers feel weird playing games compared to stock xbox and playstation controllers.
Bro you’re hilarious lmao
Stick drift?
None measured or seen in gameplay, I will let you know if it gets it down the road
Roach Coach!! Grab your breakfast sammich boys and girls...Now get your ass back to work 😂😂😂
do rocket games controllers
seems way over priced for the features
what do we exactly get by spending 200 dollars instead of 40 for the gamesir controllers? worse materials sure but way more functions and features, hall effect sticks and triggers, mechanical face buttons, 1000 hz polling rate (kaleid t4), i mean wtf...these 150+ dollars "pro" controllers are overpriced as fuck
Hypr have added the option to add hall effect thumbsticks.. Does this make them the top dog of pro controllers now? @GamerHeavenOfficial
Thanks I bought a custom controller and use your code 🤌🏼
