Review: Solid - 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 desertcart 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.
Review: I've tried them all and this one wins - I've tried literally all of the high-end "pro" Xbox controllers over the years and this one wins by a mile for one major reason; the joysticks on this are next-level. This is one of the only pro controllers using hall effect joysticks on the market today and if you don't know what that means, Google it before you buy a pro controller. The deadzone, responsiveness, and low resistance of the joysticks on this controller are so much better than anything else on the market today. Think about how you game and you'll probably realize that joysticks are the single most important part of a controller. The fact that every single button on it uses a mechanical switch instead of the old mushy, sticky membrane buttons is icing on the cake. The ergonomics further that sweetness as I have XL hands and being able to grip the controller without accidentally pressing the back buttons means a lot to me. I had no quality control issues on my unit and after owning it for two months (20+ hours of use per week) it's still just as good as new. A lot of reviews complaining that it "feels cheap" but feels are worth absolutely nothing (elite series 2 controller proves this; it feels premium, but it's one of the worst pro controllers on the market with terrible quality control, sticky membrane buttons, and sloppy joysticks with atrociously excessive deadzone to hide the stick drift). What matters is performance and the Stealth Ultra wins by a landslide. When I first started trying pro controllers, one thing I cared a lot about was the ability to swap out hardware. Different joysticks, different D-pad, etc. But then I settled into what worked best and never went back. Controllers with swappable components became useless to me as I literally never swapped after this. That said, one of the drawbacks of this controller is that I had to apply a third party joystick extender to the right stick for aiming (I bought the Scufs and they fit perfectly). The other downside is the PC software for this controller, which is pretty bad, but fortunately you don't even need to use it since the LCD screen on the controller let's you do everything the software can.
