@@trevfromnz8927 u think there better than elite controllers? i have a scuf custom and its shit after a year and i need a new one already. does the pdp have a good warranty?
Finally Microsoft decided to pull their head outta their a**. They’re letting third parties make wireless controllers. They had a monopoly on it FOR EVER. (Coming from an Xbox gamer)
@@FIVESTRZ it’s crazy that Xbox is so strict about wireless controllers: licensing. They force the manufacturer to pay a fee, and most companies aren’t willing to. 🤦♂️ same as with headsets. That’s why headsets are usually compatible with everything BUT Xbox. So irritating.
I saw this controller at Best Buy today. I’m not big on gaming anymore but when I do I like a really nice controller. I’ve fallen in love with the series 2 but after about 2 years the rubber falls off the controller and it needs to be replaced. I’d like to see the series 3 improve on the series 2 but I believe this controller could push the industry in the right direction.
Looking at this for myself as my elite 2 is deteriorating. I use the remappable function to remap the rb/rt to the left back buttons due to a hand injury making it uncomfortable to use them.
I’ll give you my honest 1 star Amazon review: I was really excited to try this controller after watching countless reviews. The colour scheme matched the whole aesthetic of my pc setup, the idea of being able to remap the back paddles on fly without the need for software sounded brilliant. The fight pad was really nice to use for Street Fighter. All seemed like I was buying the perfect controller… However without doing proper research about the interchangeable modules I ordered this without knowing you can’t order the modules separately… you would expect to be able to buy replacement modules in event of getting stick drift or sunken buttons, but you just can’t. Needing a whole new controller just because one of the modules have gone faulty seems idiotic to me. The analogue sticks are useable, but they are not the best you can get, they are not hall effect joysticks. Also, you can’t adjust the response “curves” for the analogue sticks like you can on other pro controller’s software. The trigger stops “work” but they are not great either, if set to the minimum (mouse clicks) they are wayyy too easy to press I found that I had to fine tune them to about 25% just so I could rest my fingers on them without them actuating. That being said, after fine tuning them to where I needed them to be it was quite easy to reset them back to mouse clicks in game by accident because my fingers accidentally would flick the locking mechanism. Which was also a problem as the deadzone set for how you needed them would now be out of bounds rendering them temporarily useless. Conclusion: there are just much better controllers out there around this price point. It’s not worth spending the money on this controller with this many issues. I like the aesthetic and functionality of this controller, it was just poorly executed in my honest opinion. If Victrix fix all these issues with a new and improved controller in the future, I will definitely consider buying… but the Victrix Pro BFG as it stands gets a big fat no from me 👎🏽
@@b-gamer340 no worries man, personally I’ve gone for Xbox elite series 2 to game on my PC, but even that has got stick drift after only 2 days lol… that being said, it is still a great controller. I will be returning it for a replacement very soon. Right now, the PlayStation Dualsense Edge is the goat… I’ve been using that for about a year on my PS5 with absolutely no problems, zero stick drift so I haven’t even had to replace the analogue stick modules yet.
@@abzolini bro I am on Xbox and only play Madden and stick drift after 3 weeks to a month. Sometimes after a day. I may start gaming on my PC or just get an PS5 edge controller to play on my Xbox..
@@b-gamer340not sure if you can use the dualsense edge on Xbox, I doubt you can, and even if there was a way to do it you won’t be able to set profiles or assign the back paddles to what you want without the ps5 software. If I was you I would stick with the Xbox controller, even I don’t use my dualsense edge on my pc just because the Xbox ones work seamlessly
It takes ages to charge, like around 4-5 hours, even when you use the official USB cable. Battery life is fairly decent, it doesn't last as long as my KK3 Max, but it's good enough for most ppl.
have 0ver 3,000 hours of fps on this controller. by far my favorite. only wish they had mechanical buttons but i upgraded to the hall effect stick mod but sadly i still couldnt find a hall effect mod with the mech buttons
What's a better controller for console use I have the victrix looming to upgrade there's the bfg or the razer v3 that are probably the best options on console
Is the polling rate the same as the gambit on Xbox, I purchased and still use the gambit because of the quicker response time. Will upgrade if this is the same
question about mapping of buttons, my left hand doesnt work can you map the left trigger and bumper to the right mappable paddles lke the elite 2 does?
This is a great control My only complaint is that if the Xbox is left on sleep mode when you go back to turn on the control it won't respond also I have to turn my Xbox on before I pair the control. It's super annoying.
What do we do when it only wants to work as a mouse and keyboard? Yes, i did all the stream bull. It isn't syncing properly with the app out the box and doesn't work with the Xbox gamepass app on pc.
Hey ECPU, I have a question about this controller. Do you have the playstation version of this? If so, do you think you could take out the xbox button and playstation button layouts on both controller and swap them around? That and can you swap the buttons between the black and white versions?
I’ve watched tons of reviews about Xbox controllers now while trying to find what to buy next. To be honest I got a bit lost. Every time something looks good there seems to be something else that puts me off. I currently use an elite 2 and the sticks are dreadful no matter what settings or tensions I try. Had it a year now (3rd one though). I tried the stick Xbox X controller yesterday and the sticks felt way better than the Elite. I used an elite 1 for over a decade and was always happy with that one. I’m looking for something that has low response time, tactile buttons, hair trigger stops, same stick feel as the stock controller, fits KontrolFreeks and has two buttons on the back or paddles. I also don’t mind if it’s wired or not. Does this controller you have reviewed fit the bill do you think. Because I was maybe thinking about the Victrix Gambit or a Gamesir (don’t know which one)
there's no controller out there with all those assets right now. you could try the one i use the Flydigi Vader 3 which basically has everything you're looking for but the sticks (KontrolFreeks don't fit on the stock sticks). you can always change out the sticks tho with a couple of modding.
@@Arenz7Link hi, thanks for the response. I actually ended up buying a Victrix Gambit and a Gamesir Kaleid. The Kaleid is amazing other than the lack of trigger stops. I glued some bits of Lego on to make my own 🤣. The Gambit is pretty good but I don’t like the seemingly built in deadzones. The triggers on the Gambit are awesome but unfortunately nothing else on it is as good as the Kaleid. Hopefully Gamesir will do one with trigger stops at some point.
The stock triggers are Hall Effect, the stock sticks are not. However, they do sell (for $40) a set of Hall Effect modules that you can replace by simply swapping them in.
I really liked this controller, and I didn't actually run into any issues with it, other than the fact that I do not need a separate fighting pad for fighting games, nor do I need to change the layout. I contemplated returning it and getting another Flydigi controller. However, the Razer Wolverine v3 Pro dropped out of nowhere (with all the improvements I wanted in its predecessor), and I bought that instead.
My victrix pro is very bad, every time looses 10% from battery disconnects for like 30 sec vibration doesn't work updates doesn't help only used with pc
So if you need to replace the battery for this controller you can’t use rechargeable AA batteries if needed because batteries went bad? That’s my biggest concern
Kinda questionable that you didnt even mention one thing they could have done better or smth thats not that good with the controller since there are many many bad reviews and comments about Victrix products online, espeacially when it comes to reliability, sad that this is just an ad and not an honest review
Yeah uh their bumpers are extremely cheaply made, you’ll waste $170 because they’ll refuse to send you a replacement part because replacement parts don’t exist for this controller which is a MAJOR RED FLAG DONT DO IT IM TRYING TO SAVE YOU GUYS.
@Windshieldchoke I spammed the hell out of the bumpers, and I've had no issues with them. Maybe your unit had a QC issue? Either way, they should have replaced your controller, especially if they don't sell replacement parts.
Tactile mechanical switches are a deal breaker for me. Terrible design for controllers. Which is why I regret buying the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra controller.
Maybe yours are bad or u dont like it, then I don't knows. I bought this and the edge, love the bfg alot more, returned my edge and my bfg still strong until this day from last year
Definitely my next controller, gotta wait another month for its release
How was it? Just got one

This is my next controller for sure!
I'm falling in love with this controller I'm getting this for my Xbox series x
have u got it yet? like it?
Is the build quality improved from the PS5 version?
Yas
It is a verry good controller on the XBX!
The triggers are hall effect now, but other than that, I'm not sure how much it differs from the PS5 version.
@@StardustLegacyFighter The main differences is the XBox version has rumble and Dolby Atmos while the PS5 version does not.
@@MonkeyFrogStudio Thats why im getting the xobx version
Answered all my questions. Will be my go to controller next after my scuff breaks.
Didn’t even show how to set it up with the Xbox. Great job.

How do I charge the controller? It has been charging and blinking for more than an hour now.
Did u find how to do it yet?
It takes ages to charge, like around 4-5 hours, even when you use the official USB cable.
Battery life is fairly decent, it doesn't last as long as my KK3 Max, but it's good enough for most ppl.
Is it maxed out at 125hz like Xbox?😏
Hi, great video! Could it be used with REWASD, with the back buttons as unique buttons paddle buttons, similar to the Elite? Thanks
To clarify, there is rumble in the BFG?
yes
but very little compared to most
have 0ver 3,000 hours of fps on this controller. by far my favorite. only wish they had mechanical buttons but i upgraded to the hall effect stick mod but sadly i still couldnt find a hall effect mod with the mech buttons
Does it have a turbo ability
Great review
What's a better controller for console use I have the victrix looming to upgrade there's the bfg or the razer v3 that are probably the best options on console
so is the wired one exactly the same as this one internally?

Can you flip the right stick and face buttons around? So the sticks would be top left and top right
You can bro
question about mapping of buttons, my left hand doesnt work can you map the left trigger and bumper to the right mappable paddles lke the elite 2 does?
yes you can
Yep!
If you guys put the mini screen on the controller, it would be the best controller ever released
Does the controller havre vibration rumble built just asking cause I kno the Ps5 version doesn’t?
What do you do when you get stick drift? I can't find anything about buying separate parts for the joysticks, if there is can someone show me a link?
This is a great control My only complaint is that if the Xbox is left on sleep mode when you go back to turn on the control it won't respond also I have to turn my Xbox on before I pair the control. It's super annoying.
How does the quality compare to the xbox elite series 2 controller which is pretty bad quality?
Way better than the Elite Series 2, despite it being slightly lighter.
What do we do when it only wants to work as a mouse and keyboard? Yes, i did all the stream bull. It isn't syncing properly with the app out the box and doesn't work with the Xbox gamepass app on pc.
I have problems with the vibration. I get no vibration
Mine doesn't either and disconnects every half hour for half minute...could you fix the problem?
@@sorinrezmuves5676 come to find out they don’t come with vibration, so I sold mine really quick. Its best to do that if you like the rumble

So if you need to replace the battery for this controller you can’t use rechargeable AA batteries if needed because batteries went bad? That’s my biggest concern
The vast majority of pro controllers don't support removable batteries, so you're pretty much limited to Xbox controllers or wired controllers.
There is a red light blinking on mines and I’m lost
No negatives? Hmm 🤔
Can you take the back things off it keeps messing me up in games alot of times
The back buttons? Nope.
Bro? How do you connect this controller to your MacBook Air to play? I can’t use it help me please
Is blue tooth just contact it to blue tooth
Stick drift?
if you do it’s modular, so just replace the module
sadly the software does not work half the time on windows 11
I’m sold
The front buttons don’t seem as reactive as a regular PlayStation controller
Cap
Is it compatible with xbox one ?
My LED won’t blink to let me map
Not gonna lie…..I prefer this baby over my Scuf Instinct 😂😅😅
Really ? I was about to get a Instinct pro
hall effects should be standard by now
Can this connect on phone?
