Review on YCCTEAM Wired Controller for Xbox One - Dual Vibration, Headset Jack, Trigger Buttons - Black by Mark Ponnusamy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good as a temporary replacement, not permanent.

I've had this controller since June and unfortunately it has the same analog stick problem as the LAST 3rd party controller I bought: just a month or so later potentiometers or something around them specific, minor areas from available motion twitching when translated into games. In this case, moving the left analog stick forward (up) and then moving it slightly left or right creates a "dead zone" where input is read as if you released the stick. movement stops if not immediately switched to crawl. Until you restart the movement and make the inevitable "mistake" of moving the stick slightly one millimeter in either direction again to repeat the aggravating process. The last controller I bought had a similar problem; where just a few months later (at this point maybe 100 hours combined) the forward direction (up) was causing strong left and right deflections (regardless of how you held the stick as long as it was mainly pushed up); as opposed to stopping the movement completely as is the case with this controller. I now have two controllers and may have just bought an official Microsoft controller; Given the price of the third now I'll be in the same price bracket. If you need a cheap controller to get through the rough patch while saving for a good official controller; of course it works fine. A few months at most.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Something different
