Xbox Cordless Precision Controller

I've not had too many wireless controllers for anything, but this one would probably win the award for nicest by far. It's smaller than the original Logitech incarnation, thereby more comfortable to hold (although still not as good as a regular old S). The buttons are laid out more like the S controller, so it's easy to get familiar with it. I, personally, don't care about the rumble feature, and to preserve battery life, I turn it off anyway.I do, however, have a few beefs with this controller. First of all, the wireless unit which attaches to the XBox itself does not have an inline break in it for inline break extension cords. Why, you ask, would you need an extension cord for a wireless controller? So I can use it with XBox Live, that's why! I'm not spending $80 on a wireless headset. Instead, I'm stuck using my S controller to play on Live.My second problem with this controller, and I don't know if this is just mine or all of them, is that the buttons really have to be HIT for them to respond. Your typical tap won't cut it. I think this is a battery saving feature, to prevent the buttons from being pressed uneccesarily when not in use, but it sure does make using the controller a pain.Overall, if you need a wireless solution, this is it. But, my favorite controller remains the good old S.

This controller has a good price, trustworthy brand, looks good, and feels nice. The long battery life is really what got me hooked on it in the first place.There are some issues though. The buttons are difficult to hold. This might either be a transmission issue, or a component contact issue within the controller, but I suspect it's a combination of both. So for games where you have to hold down a button to do something, it's likely that when you're in a rush, you will have to redo that several times 'cause you didn't hold down the button hard enough.Also, when the Xbox is running, the the green LED light on the receiver is constantly flashing, even if I'm playing a DVD, so it can be distracting. Good thing that you can hide it away, but when you're playing games, you want that visual feedback to check that the receiver is getting the transmissions right.The black and white buttons are awkward, but even more awkward are the Back and Start button. They feel squishy and uncertain. I like the Microsoft S controller a lot with the clicking action, so I am not a big fan of this implementation.But it does do its job, and hence deserves a high rating.

4 stars for being the only wireless controller for the xbox but its not the best in ergonomics and the d pad does work pretty well but takes a little getting used to. the wideness of the controller is good but the two ends where you really grip in ruins the design for smaller handed people. if you have shaq hands this controller would be perfect but then again it does make you flex your forearms more so I guess its not too bad. and the receiver isn't just a small dongle that plugs in like ps2 and gamecube, and they actually have a button on the controller to turn on and off the rumble lol. but overall I would recommend this controller over any wired xbox controller and I would buy again, actually im going to get 3 more so I can be fully wireless.

This is a great controller for the Original Xbox. I'd go as far as to say that it's probably the best controller for the Original Xbox. It's not quite as ergonomic as the S controller, but the sticks feel a lot better. They are more precise and give you better control. I've never personally had problems with the buttons being unresponsive or with it losing connection. The only big downside is that the adapter for memory cards or a headset is on the dongle itself rather than the controller. Means that you can't use a headset if you're sitting far away from the TV. Other than that, this is the best controller for the Xbox.

For the first few months I had this controller, I thought it was great. Great range, battery life, and general feel. Though as others have said, the one bad part is that you have to hit the buttons a little harder than should be necessary. Another bad part about this, constantly hitting the A button that hard has started wearing out the plastic part between the button and the circuit board, eventually causing the button to stick. I've opened it up and fixed it once, but there's no telling how long it will be before the hole gets bigger and is unrepairable. I'm just hoping that Logitec will send me one or two of these pieces in the mail.

I purchased this controller after finally getting fed up with using the ones my dog got ahold of. The wireless freedom is great in that it is very easily stored and kept out of the way. The battery life has been great so far, and once you get used to the feel of the controller its hard to tell the difference from the regular old Xbox brand. The range of the controller seems satisfactory although I haven't used it much farther than about 20 feet.

Not much to say. Wireless controller for the original xbox.It's by Logitech, so the thumbpads are exceptional. The buttons however sometimes feel a little sloppy, which is surprising from Logitech, But it's not significant.It's a good solid feeling and well playing controller. Worth getting if you have an original xbox.

The controller arrived early. That I am happy about. There is not one mark or scratch on the controller or receiver. Only issue I have is that it came without a cover for the battery compartment.
