Favorite Controller!!
Favorite controller to date and Iâve tried them all. I wish the parts were replaceable just in case but Iâve been playing a ton of Rocket League and still have yet to get any stick drift. Bought a second one.

NOT WORTH THE MONEY.
NOT WORTH THE MONEY.Worst controller I’ve ever owned. First one’s hall effects sensors started bugging out after 6 months. I filed a warranty claim and was given a new one. Second one was constantly disconnecting from the computer after 30 days. I’m throwing these in the trash and buying something cheaper.

Longest lasted controller since my old PS4 controller. R trigger issues but fixable.
This is the best controller I’ve had in a long time. 0 stick drift after nearly 500 hours of play time on Rocket League. (About 6.5 months as of this review). However, I cannot give this 5 stars.* It’s NOT 1000hz, meaning regardless of how good it is an any other way, it’s not to standard and may have an affect on your performance in game.* My right trigger keeps going out (becomes wonky/uncontrollable), fortunately I know whats wrong with it so with a quick piece of paper to keep the problem in the right place a piece of tape to hold it on and a little bit of manual re-calibration gets it back to about 90-95% of it’s expected performance.* It also has weird issues with not turning on when you expect it to (requires xbox button press to turn on), or at least weird programming. But that’s never been an issue for me I prefer my controller off unless I tell it to turn on.* The software (thrustmapperx) kinda blows, but gets the job done I guess, also don’t really need I just use it as a visual reference to re-calibrate the R trigger.And that’s basically it, but most people can’t take their controller apart and fix the problem, and those are the only ones I’ve ever had. It’s discontinued for a reason though I suppose, but for the current lowered price of $60 that’s a steal as long as its not super-used. That being said, I personally will be looking to buy a different controller when the time comes.

Broken Button Component
Not a bad controller. It feels a little boxy but I got used to it after a dozen days or so. Wasn’t having any issues with it until now (4 months after order, to the day). The A button is no longer clicking, it’s not a software issue but a mechanical one, I’m a tinkerer and couldn’t help myself but to take it apart and look at the physical button component. It’s not working anymore.I’ve had plenty of controllers over the years, but never have I had one’s button stop functioning this soon after purchase. Based on the issue with the failing button and the fact that I didn’t love the feel of it in my hands, I probably won’t be purchasing the HEART controller again.

I wanted to like this controller…
I’m just gonna give my Pros and Cons about this controller. Anything I don’t mention is probably because I don’t care about or just don’t use it enough to review it. I mainly play Rocket League and diagonals are important to me.Pros-ABXY Face buttons (It has a mechanical short press to it, it’s great!)Mini Sticks (Great accuracy + support for square deadzone)Overall style of controller (The black and white scheme. Looks great!)Cons-Triggers (Feel cheap, uncomfortable, and just a bad design especially when I transition my finger from the bumper. the trigger just pokes out. Also the trigger has a sharp edge that makes it uncomfortable.)Polling rate (I wished it was 1khz, while having low latency on both sticks and buttons)Price (It feels cheap, holding hollow plastic, and just bad ergonomics for this price point)RGB (Its there, but cmon, I need more color options or customizations. Like they need to make a setting in their app for this)This controller is not for me for my playstyle, so I’ll be returning it.

Read The Description Before Buying!
When I bought this controller I thought it was wireless…. SMH. No where does it say that this is a wireless controller, my bad, I should have read the entire description. I kept the controller anyway and it is a really good controller so far! I would buy it again for sure! Although I would probably get one that is wireless.

The quality control is amazing, and the materials feel great, the grip takes some getting used to, but once you get used to it it feels nicer than the standard Xbox controller grip

bought may 2025, amazing controller when it worked, feels similar to a ps5 controller in the hands but has the xbox placement. hall effect analog is game changing, 0.000 degree accuracy when testing with programs. recently 3 months after purchase the B button has started not responding to input and the cable is not sustaining connection during play. product has a 1 year warranty, working with thrustmaster for a hopeful painless replacement.update. 3 days later replacement on the way, no hassle. sent the SIN of the controller and a 5 second video of the button not responding and that was it. updating review from 3-4 stars
