Review: A Great Game Controller With A few Caveats. - The Thrustmaster eSwap X Pro Controller is a great controller for the most part. The one place where it could use a little help is with the joysticks. They wear out a little sooner than some on the market do. Fortunately, there is a really great fix for this! There is a third party part which you can order which you can use to replace the joysticks without having to replace all of the joystick, whether you are using the sticks which came with your Thrustmaster eSwap X Pro Controller, or if you are using one of the colour packs. You can find the third party replacement part on desertcart here: https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B09H7PVZMY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The replacement part will also eventually wear out, just as all joysticks usually do, but it will take a lot longer for it to do so. The replacement part will make the joysticks much stiffer, so if you have unusually weak thumbs, you may need to chose a different option. The box which the Thrustmaster eSwap X PRO Controller comes in is really nice, and it's that way for a reason. When your gaming session is done, you should put your Thrustmaster eSwap X Pro Controller back in its box, and fit the stiff foam part over the two joysticks in the way that it originally came. It has a cut-out which fits over the switch controller in such a way that it can't be inserted incorrectly. The purpose of this packing piece is to ensure that the sticks are perfectly centred, and that neither spring has any extra tension on it. This will not only ensure that your joysticks last longer, but it will also ensure that your joysticks will remain tensioned properly even over long periods of time. The eSwap X PRO is both a very high quality controller, but also a rather expensive one too, so you'll want to give it the best care possible. Initially, the Thrustmaster eSwap X PRO Controller is more expensive than most controllers, but if you replace the spring box (the mechanical part only, not the whole joystick), you'll eventually recoup that extra expense by not having to buy a new controller every time the joysticks wear out. The thing to remember is that unless you want to customize your colours, you should never buy Thrustmaster replacement sticks. Always buy the Epindon Thrustmaster eSwap Pro Controller Replacement Stick Module Kit instead (see above link). Summary: If you do not use a game controller very often, then this joystick is probably not going to be for you. But if you use a controller a lot (almost daily) then this is definitely the game controller for you. If you game a lot using a controller, this controller will save you money over time if you use the Epindon Thrustmaster eSwap Pro Controller Replacement Stick Module Kit when your joysticks wear out, especially if you put it away in its original packing after each play session.

Review: DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME. - ***DO NOT BUY*** Rant: This might be the worst hunk of junk I have ever purchased in my life. Not only have I had the stick modules replaced thrice (6 total replacement stick modules) within a span of 4 months, I also had the entire controller body replaced, and I STILL HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. I though I could bypass this issue by purchasing one of their Hall Effect Stick modules, but lo and behold, I had the exact same issues. Sure, I no longer had drift. But the sticks would randomly disconnect. Not the controller. THE STICKS. Randomly disconnecting for up to 10 seconds, or they would go back and forth between the input I was actually putting and no input like 10 times a second. I had this problem with every single stick and with BOTH controllers. I should also add that the Y button and LB both started either double clicking or not registering inputs at all. The second controller did not have this issue, but I have also had it for a lot less time. I purchased this controller in December 2024. It is now the end of July 2025. 7 months and two broken controllers and 8 total broken sticks (2 controllers. 6 normal stick modules, 2 hall effect modules) ALL with some sort of issue that makes it almost unplayable. I should add that I play rocket league and grind it quite a bit. List of issues I had: - Sticks disconnect - Stick drift within 2 weeks - Random inputs - loss of functionality (can ONLY turn left on one stick/no bottom right inputs register at all) - Button double clicks - Bumper inputs not registering - A button broke literally 2 hours after I wrote this review... TL;DR Don't waste your time. Don't waste your money. You WILL suffer. Just get a SCUF controller or literally anything other than this.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good Controller with Small Disappointments but Great Longevity
*by L***D on November 24, 2021*

I've used everything from the cheap controllers to MS standard controllers, the original Elite, and the Razer Wildcat. This has been the best of the bunch. The single biggest issue I have with all of the controllers I've used is drift. Eventually they've all suffered from that issue. When its an expensive device such as the Elite, its incredibly annoying. The fact that with the ESWAP I can just change out the stick for another alone puts this on the top of the heap. That being said, the buttons are highly responsive, and more clicky than mushy. The short trigger pull switches work flawlessly with every game. I've left them on when not intending to, and generally didn't notice unless I was playing a driving game and the pedals seemed short. The higher height sticks also work great for greater accuracy in shooters. The extra buttons on the bottom work well enough. Paddles might have been better as the current placement does allow for accidentally hitting the buttons. After using this for several months on a daily basis, I'm still on the first set of analog sticks with no loosening or drift at all. Only have two small complaints. 1. The USB cord it comes with could be longer. I sit across the room from the TV, so 10-12 feet would be preferable. This one just makes the distance. Since it has a molded holder, its not simply a matter of swapping it out for another USB cable as any other cable will cause more strain on the connector. 2. The 4 button set should be swappable as well. While the buttons still function just fine, the letters have about worn off. Not a huge deal, but seeing the wear made me realize that if a button goes out, the game pad is shot as that's the one piece you can't swap. If the next gen includes a swappable button pad, and this one continues to hold up, I'll stick with Thrustmaster ESWAP for a good long while. UPDATE: I've raised this review to 5 stars. I've now been using this remote for over two years. While I bought this with extra sticks as I assumed the originals would have issues after 6 months to a year, I am yet to have to change out any parts due to drift or failure. Frankly, I can't remember the last time I had a controller last for over two years. May have been the original Xbox Duke, which was built like a tank. This has now lasted 4 times longer than the Xbox Elite controller I had. And I game a lot. Just about every day for several hours. Very pleased with the longevity of this controller. My couple of nitpicks still stand, but considering how well this has held up over two years, they really are nits.
