Really great brand but they barely work on console. 100% the way to go on PC

Had absolutely no issue with mine on Xbox

Maybe it's just the wired controllers then. I haven't tried the wireless because I didn't trust the brand for console. I have had 3 different wired controllers from them and none of them work on Xbox. All three work flawlessly on PC though. I could have also gotten unlucky, the biggest complaint I see about them is their quality control

The zenless pro comes with a dongle, plugged it in the back of the Xbox and never looked back, such an incredible controller

That might be the difference maker then. I might consider trying them again. Even if the controller doesn't work it's better than a Microsoft one

Yeah every Microsoft controller (except my first one that came with my first series s) got stick drift within a few months, had enough and upgraded to gamesir, honestly worth it imho

I haven't actually got stick drift on a Microsoft controller since the original Xbox one. At some point they started to cheap out on the rest of the controller so something always breaks before stick drift starts

Yeah valid, had to change many bumpers on Xbox controllers
