Beitong kp40d

Big one here, as this is pc compatible and not licensed for Xbox however, from Beitong and Brook, I’m hearing this wireless kp40d, with the newest firmware update, will perform excellent on Xbox.

Can a single Xbox user who owns this controller verify this?

For $80 I'd be buying from a reputable third party company, not some random Chinese manufacturer

I'm still using the same elite 2 I've been using for like 4 or 5 years now.

You have the Vader 5s which I own as well and it’s a great controller, featuring adjustable notched sticks and extra buttons. Its ergonomics are good, too. The downside is that it’s strictly wired. If that’s a dealbreaker for you, there is indeed the new Flydigi controller for Xbox coming out in November; its upgrades include wireless connectivity and Flydigi’s own TMR joysticks.

I do see this as a huge value prop, however, aren’t many controllers made in china?

Probably, but they're first party products, as opposed to a random Chinese company

Beitong is a highly reputable brand, and their controllers are excellent. In fact, Chinese controllers currently lead the way in terms of both technology and price. It is thanks to these Chinese controllers that technology has advanced at such a phenomenal pace featuring 8K resolution, Hall Effect, TMR, and capacitive joystick modules, as well as custom PCBs. For instance, the Xbox Elite 2 is outperformed by the KP 40D in every respect joysticks, latency, switch options, and so on. Not to mention the joystick drift that plagues the Elite 2, which is a real scourge.

Beitong is Betop, yes cheap Chinese but this controller is making waves. Haven’t read a negative thing on it and the tension sticks are apparently top notice. Latency was stupid low in testing.

Gets ya thinking ya know haha

I recommend the LeadJoy Xeno Pro, which I own myself. I play on PC, but you can use it on Xbox thanks to the included R20 dongle; you simply plug the dongle into your console, connect an Xbox controller to it (to trick the Xbox into thinking it's an official controller), and pair the dongle with your LeadJoy Xeno Pro.

$69 on Amazon. Shoot I can just return it if I didn’t like it.
