Performance
The haptic feedback is truly a standout feature. The subtle vibrations and nuanced textures provided by the controller add a new layer of immersion to gaming. In games like Astro’s Playroom, the difference is immediately noticeable, and even in more demanding titles, the feedback enhances the overall feel of the game. The adaptive triggers, while not always utilized to their full potential by every game, provide satisfying resistance and feedback during gameplay, making actions like drawing a bow or accelerating a car feel more realistic. The improved stick design also contributes to more precise and comfortable gameplay, even during extended gaming sessions.
I found the battery life to be consistent with other wireless controllers. It easily lasts through several gaming sessions before requiring a recharge via USB-C. The Bluetooth connectivity worked flawlessly with my Windows PC, providing a seamless gaming experience.
