NACON Revolution X Unlimited Advanced Precision Controller Officially Licensed for Xbox Series X | S, Xbox One, Windows 10/11 PC & Android – Wired and Wireless – Charging Station

Finally!!
I’ve been waiting for a long time for a quality replacement for the absolutely terrible Elite controllers that Microsoft offers. I’ve endured through 3 Elites (all developed shoulder button and trigger issues, along with stick drift in a very short amount of time), tried the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra (a complete let down with that kind of price point both in build quality and software), and 2 Razer Wolverine V3 Pros (horrible software experience, poor connectivity, bad build quality, even worse support by Razer). The typical offerings of third party controllers have been good to great in only a few places, only to be a letdown in most other features.Nacon almost nailed this controller perfectly. I had thoughts to only give it 4 stars because of some minor “annoyances, but compared to other offerings I had to give it the 5th star. Premium feel and build quality, face and shoulder buttons are just clicky enough but not so much so that it seems more gimmick than functional. Triggers are smooth and offer trigger stops that alters to a mouse click, quick trigger. The software to program is offered both on XBOX as a native app and on PC, and is intuitive enough to accomplish what you need to in remapping buttons and settings. Connectivity has been perfect, booting up the console each time the controller is engaged and turned on.It also comes with a dock, instead of just a charging cable, which is a nice touch. The dock can be a tad finicky to seat the controller properly, but nothing too bad. The added extra sticks, weights, and stick rings are fantastic. They apply with a satisfying click, and are easy enough to take off to change out. The weights are unique and allow for the right amount of heft that suits you, easily inserted into the hand grip portion by way of covers that slide off of each side.The minor issues mentioned would be that the battery life isn’t amazing. Probably due to the screen, but you can remedy that a bit by dialing down the brightness. A lot of companies are adding 2 extra paddles right where the grips are that seem to me to be useless. I found this to be something that in on the Razer V3, and I had to disable them completely because I couldn’t not hit them accidently. Additionally, the profile swap button is on the bottom of the controller right where my finger lays and I have found that I’ve accidently changed the profile I’m on mid game. Again, these are very minor, especially considering how long I’ve waited for a controller that gets me from ever having to go back to the trash Elite controller ever again.Lastly, at this point, no controller should be without minimum hall effect sticks, which this controller has. So they even check that middle Bingo square of the bare minimum and company should hit (see Microsoft who still refuses to put hall effect stick on a $200+ controller that is notorious for stick drift). All in all, I recommend this controller to anyone and everyone looking for a premium experience out of an XBOX controller.

Frustrating at first but good controller.
This is a tough one. The apps for both xbox and pc are terrible, and updating the controller took hours and quite a few tines of Uninstaller the apps and trying again. It was a very frustrating experience right out of the box. That being said, once it was finally updated, fantastic controller. Buttons and sticks feel great. i love that I can change the weight. The apps need some attention, and their generic support email respose was no help. Hopefully I will never need to use the apps for anything else.

Get past the set up and you will see why it’s a beast
I will start with the bad first. Updating the controller before you can even use it. Now I had to do the update 3 times but I guess they say the third is the charm. After the third update try, it finally finished thank goodness. Now I see a few review talking about the right stick messing up after trying to change the pads and this to happened to me. But after careful inspection I realized that for some reason when you pull on the stick to remove the pad for me it popped up a little causing it to feel like it’s sticking, so I put some pressure on it pushing down and it popped right back in and felt smooth as butter like it did out of the box. To play on Xbox is why I brought this controller. I couldn’t get connected wirelessly until I found out I had to use the dongle ether in the dock or connected to the system to get it to connect wirelessly but after I figured that out I was good to go. Now the good after finally getting all that out the way I will say this controller is a absolute monster I have 3 regular controllers and none of them even come close to this one the movement on high speed games such as 2k is night and day, you can feel and see the difference while playing with the controller. The customization in the app is also great but can be confusing to someone new trying to set it up and what all of the terms mean and things you can do. The look and feel of this controller is great, it’s a tad bit bigger then a regular controller but still feels great in hand. If you can get the controller updated and working it’s definitely worth the purchase. I hope this helps someone with the right stick issue cause I fixed mine by popping it back down in place. This is worth 5 stars once over the hurdles after you get it working lol. PS I brought this controller just for CFB26 so I know iam bout to get nasty 🔥
