Divided opinion

The controller looks very chic and is also comfortable to hold. All buttons and knobs are easily accessible. The cable is very long for my circumstances and perfectly adequate.
The sticks are easy to grip and smooth, the rockers have a stronger front suspension than the original Microsoft controller - which I personally find very good. The pressure points of the other buttons and knobs are okay.
The first star deduction I have been giving for the Afterglow function. Here are three modes are provided, which can be freely selected by a slider on the bottom: OFF - ON - ON with vibration. The function that concerns with vibration of the light effect does not work on my controller unfortunately. No matter what game is running. Go The other two functions.
The lighting is by a number of LED's very strong and intense - you should definitely not look at the controller or the LED's! The completely transparent housing provides a nice insight into the inner workings - big drawback: it leaves many, unsightly fingerprints that make all unsightly. After a long playing in the summer also form light deposits, which are not always easy to get rid. Here a satin plastic (keyword: frosted glass effect) would certainly have been more practical for the optics.
Another star I have to give for handling the sticks while playing - but a purely subjective feeling!
I play racing simulation like Forza series and even shooter or WoT. For small, small movements of the stick is very accurate. But the further you tend him, the more experiences the movement on the screen to accelerate. I can not imagine, for which games you want to be practical to me at present. When racing simulations "it verreißt the wheel" so to speak, and the car becomes uncontrollable. When shooters or WoT fast will target to hit and miss. A little the stick tilted too far and it is past the target and then the game is already out.

So I remain the bottom line in the original controllers - even if it looks really good by the afterglow effect.
