iirc the wired version isnt due for release for a month.Why don't they sell the wired version on Amazon?
I try to stay away from Best Buy if I can
Edit: I bought the extended warranty for my Elite 2 that runs out the end of this year. Going to be sending it in for them to repair/refurbish/replace. I only paid $20 for 3 years, so was worth it. Already had them replace it once for the LB breaking.

I'll have to pick one of these up, for sure.
My current fav is the Flydigi Vader 4.

Thx. On the Razer site, it lists Best Buy as a retailer to buy???
Depending on how the users here like it, I might pick the wired version up during BF if it goes on sale.

No charging base, no rumble, no speaker, no bluetooth and it is overpriced.
Still everything else looks good though and Razer buttons feel amazing (and actually work).
I do like Razer stuff.

M1 and M2 are still highly useful, they're just a step down on the switch quality from V2 to V3
I use the Razer Xbox app on PC, havent used it on xbox yet

You can stop quivering! I just got the controller today (bought it from Amazon) and it is AWESOME! The haptic feedback/vibration feels great. I was a little concerned because someone mentioned in this thread that it does not have vibration, but it does. I am a little curious though, where is the software for the controller? I'd like to swap some button functions.
Thanks a lot OP!

You could ask the same question as to why some people pay for Michelin Pilot Sport tyres instead of say Hankook Kinergy. Both are good tyres. But the feel and control I get is so much nicer with my Michelin's. Whilst you're content, some of us want more.

but I saw PowerA (yeah kind of low end products) announced 2 new controllers and thought the specs on the lower end controller was crazy for $49 so had to preorder one even if it ends up in the trash

That looks great for the money. The back paddle placement looks good and hall effects too. Whats not to like? I think we're definitely seeing everything start to move to hall effect now, which is potentially great in general. Though tbh in the many decades I've been gaming I've only had stick drift a couple of times. iirc an OG Elite and also a series 2 Elite. The Series 2 got it under a year, but the OG was a few years old.So not trying to highjack your thread

I am hoping too seeing these cheaper controllers having hall effect sticks we will start seeing Sony and MS start to include them but I bet that would really cut into their controller sales as I have had 3 or 4 controllers I have replaced over the years because of drift as well
I have tried PowerA in the past and they do feel cheap so expecting this one to feel cheap as well, may order the other one the revealed as well just to test thats $99

Damn that even has Hall effect sticks and triggers, well the HE one does and its only $49
This is the best Controller and it's $45.

I wonder Elite 3 will have Hall Effects sticks as well?
It would make sense now that 3rd parties are jumping in for the premium controllers.
I wouldn't be sruprised if all next gen consoles/controllers go that route as well. That's if they hold up in both build and performance.

The Gulikit King Kong 3 Max controller is also pretty awesome.

Good thing I got it for PC. I'm sure there are console alternatives in the same price range, which was the point that you chose to ignore.

I had a previous version. The LB stopped working after a few months. I didn't like the button feel.
I'm currently using a flydigi Vader 3 and I love it. Cheap. You can create macros. And after months of use it's still perfect. I also have a direwolf 2. It's also very good.

So at first I thought it wouldn't turn the system on. It does, but I have to hold it kind of pointing at the system(?). I don't know it just doesn't seem consistent. No disconnect issues so far. The rumbles are adjustable. I have mine set on the default (4), and I think it feels great.
What does bother me is my previous Razer Wolverine controllers have always had some quirk with the Xbox. Like not powering it on or having to unplug and re plug in etc. So whats it like when solely being used on the Xbox in terms of powering on the machine and config via software? Any disconnects, rumble as powerful as Elite?
Thanks again. I really shouldn't invest anything more into XSX, but it is tempting...

Yeah, the wired early version I had. Would be inconsistent turning it on too. I'm just waiting for Gamer Heaven, he says a review is due soon. I'm generally hesitant simply because my XSX isnt my primary gaming system. And the Pro is just about to be announced. But also the new Nacon is due for release soon.
