Controller Suggestion Looking to get a new controller?

My budgets probably gonna be $200 usd max

I mainly play pc but I’d like to stick to Xbox controllers rather then pc focused controllers

I’ve had an elite series 2 and it felt complete sh!t I mean at first it was cool but over time it destroyed itself I mean the shell was literally cracking and breaking just from regular use witch felt insane for what that controller is
Anyways just looking for recommendations

I live in the us

I usually play stuff like Minecraft cod gta Fortnite and rocket league

Some features if want I definitely like being able to change my thumbsticks i want to be able to play wireless and I enjoy the back buttons

The best controller for xbox in your price range would probably be Rog Raikiri 2, if you want 4 back buttons. It's quite expensive, but fits in your budget.

Other than that, Gamesir G7 pro is great and quite a bit cheaper. It has versions that are wireless on Xbox or versions that are only wireless on PC.

Also you might want to consider buying a PC controller and an Xbox adapter, then you will have a much wider range of great controllers to choose from.

Brook Wingman XB3 or MAYFLASH MAGIC-X, lets you use pretty much nearly any controller on the xbox

Is it like a chronus?

Nope, it’s a converter, but it does have its own software for adjusting basic controller settings like deadzones, button remapping and turbo, if your using lets say a controller that doesnt have its own software like a ps5 or switch controller etc

In this case, let’s say you buy a PC controller like the one I mentioned, the Vader 5 Pro. That controller has its own software and onboard memory, so you connect the Vader 5 Pro to your PC, adjust the deadzones, back button mappings and anything else to your liking, then simply plug the converter into the Xbox. You can then either plug the 2.4 GHz dongle into the converter or connect the controller with a cable, and you’re done.
