  • I have been playing videogames since 1992. Went through almost every controller design possible. From the modern ones, I never liked the layout from the playstation so sticked to Xbox. At the moment I’m using a GameSir T4 Kaleid and absolutely loving it. Mechanical buttons and hall effect joystick are very nice. Since I’ve had it only for a year I can’t say anything about reliability. Most reliable Xbox controllers in order are Xbox classic controller S, 360, One. After that every single one is bad IMO. Series controller start to drift pretty fast, same as both elites. So at the moment my most favourite is the Xbox One controller 2nd revision (1708) also known as Xbox one S controller but if the GameSir won’t break for the next couple of years it will be the top one for me.

    I hope more first party controllers will get a proper higher tier version with real reliable parts like everything hall effect and mechanical buttons…















  • Rocking mine since Sep 2015 approx 25k hours. Had to replace the glide pads with some from china, the thumb rest is rubbed through, scroll wheel has some corrosion and there is no profile left on the right side rubber but technically it’s still working fine.

    And you don’t need to have the software on all the time, just save the config on the mouse.
