I bought this, solely for playing a console port game on PC. Deus X Machina (Acquired for free from Epic Store) was next to impossible to control with any degree of accuracy, so I asked a very good friend of mine for recommendations on a good controller to be able to continue to play the game with my friends.

He said that this one was the best that money could buy. He was not wrong! However, what he didn't tell me, was that to get the best experience, you also need to buy the Microsoft Xbox wireless Adapter/Receiver for PC

I tried it for a few days first, using just my Bluetooth adapter, but it was laggy, and often gave false inputs, missed inputs, or delayed inputs, which got me killed more times than I'm comfortable to mention, so I also bought the above adapter.

The controller then became the best controller I have ever used!

Firstly, the controller connects to the Bluetooth adapter, usually, after a few seconds, but could sometimes take 10-15 seconds, or just fail altogether. I must have forced reconnection about a dozen times, even deleting the device and re-pairing it to my computer, until I bought the Adapter, and it all changed! It will connect within a second of pressing the XBOX button on the controller. There is zero input lag, that I noticed, and it stays connected without issue for however long you want to play for. The battery will last for a little over 40 hours of solid gameplay on one full charge. and it charges from dead flat to fully charged in about three to four hours or so, but just a ten minute charge will give you about an hour, so you can finish your game, or get to a save point or whatever, plus, you can also plug it in to your computer directly, to charge and play at the same time, and it will automatically become a wired controller when you do this!

While it is an expensive device, it is, in my humble opinion, well worth the expense, if you can afford it, and you really must have the best! And let's face it, we do want the best, don't we?

I haven't even mentioned that this controller is fully programmable, so you can set the buttons and triggers to do whatever keystroke or function that you want, and you can even set different trigger sensitivity/travel on the left and right trigger switches. It can switch on the fly between default and up to three of your preset on board configuration profiles.

If that doesn't make you want one, then nothing will!

Another feature, if that wasn't enough, is that you can easily remove and swap the thumb sticks AND the direction pad. Just pull them up and they pop right off, and you simply put another in their place, where they will stay by the neodymium magnets built into the device. The same goes for the four hidden paddle switches on the underside. Oh, didn't I mention them before? Well, there are four paddle switches nestled underneath the controller, right where your fingers will naturally site when you're holding the controller. By default, they're disabled, but can be activated in the config app when you are connected by the supplied 3 metre cable. These paddles can be set to carry out any function you want them to be, whether a keyboard key press, or a controller button press. You choose how you want this thing to work. If you don't like the paddles, you can tilt them and pull them off, and store them in the really cool carry/storage case, which also houses the spare controller pieces, the cable, and the charger block. Incidentally, you don't need to charge it in the case, because the charger block is also built with magnets, so you can pull it out of the case to charge on your desk, or wherever you like. Just place the controller on the charger block and it's magnets will line it up with the electrical contacts. This device is engineered so well, that you will wonder how you ever got on without it!

It's designed to work with both PC and Xbox one console too!

Very good for fps game. Comfortable and easy to adjust. Very good for fps game. Comfortable and easy to adjust.

Great remote. Paddles at back are comfortable and easy to use. Weight is nice and feels sturdy. Had a problem with Y button not being responsive half the time I used it so taking it back for replacement today. Great remote. Paddles at back are comfortable and easy to use.

Better than the series 1 in almost every single way, except the back paddles are smaller Better than the series 1 in almost every single way, except the back paddles are smaller

One of the best controllers I have ever used. It is a bit pricey but it feels great in the hand nice and heavy and great with the paddles too. One of the best controllers I have ever used. It is a bit pricey but it feels great in the hand nice and heavy and great with the paddles too.

Awesome controller, feels great, works great and has excellent programmability and supportability through the Xbox accessories app. For windows users I’d recommend spending an extra and getting the Xbox wireless adaptor dongle, my onboard Bluetooth wasn’t up to the job and had occasional lag. Plugging it in to USB clearly sorted this, but the dongle gives me flawless wireless performance and is well worth it.
