Razer Wolverine V3 Pro Wireless Gaming Controller: Licensed for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC - 6 Remappable Buttons - Fast Triggers - Customizable Thumbsticks - Wired Tournament Mode - Black

I own most of the Razer controllers that they've released (pictured are just some that aren't in storage) so I'm what you may call an expert and also bad with money.Razer controllers prior have all had some issues to put it lightly, or in the case of the Raiju's so much so that the lineup is now effectively dead in favor of the Wolverine. The Wolverine v3 Pro feels like a true culmination of all the past controller issues and questionable design decisions being ironed out.I will list my own personal highlights compared to previous offerings as I do not see any of the "tech reviewers" mentioning them.+ Tension on thumb sticks and full pull on triggers nearly identical to stock Xbox, stick tension slightly tighter from what I can tell and it feels amazing compared to how loose the tension on every Razer controllers has been prior+ Thumbstick material and texture provides actual grip, previous controllers were slip city+ ACTUALLY GOOD AND ERGONOMIC BACK BUTTONS OH MY GOD HOW I'VE LONGED FOR THIS+ Face buttons have been changed for the better, sound and feel is still clicky like Razer is known for but much more muted, and in general they've felt less fatiguing to use+ M1 and M2 switches changed to be same as bumper, previously they were not and had slightly different feeling actuation force needed so if you tested your fingers on the extra buttons you may have accidentally triggered them due to the lesser force needed+ Actually good trigger stops bravo 👏+ Wireless that works without issue!!! On a Razer controller no less wow!+ Good polling rates??? 250hz 2.4 wireless polling rate on Xbox is double than the standard and elite controller offerings from Xbox, finally a pro controller from Razer that actually lives up to the pro name. With up to 1000hz wired on PC Razer has finally caught up to current year and as a result this is their most responsive feeling controller ever.+ Razer actually priced it fairly for a wireless pro controller, remembered to include a carrying case this time, and included a 10ft cable for wired. Immaculate W+ Hall effect sticks in a big name pro controller, to see Razer adopt this before Microsoft and Sony absolutely blows my mind, they actually did it. Bravo.If you play on Xbox and PC it's a no brainer. While they could certainly do more in offering a wider variety of stick options, let alone the means of easily obtaining more which historically they've never done outside of ordering a "replacement set" at absurd prices from their parts store, I'm just in awe that Razer actually knocked it out of the park for once.Honestly I'm just in shock they actually priced it at $200, I feel like I actually got what I paid for so the finance team must be on vacation or something.

This version of the controller completely earns its V3 status. I skipped V2, but this is a significant upgrade from the V1. If you're a fan of the V1 and even on the fence, then look no further. This has every single quality of life feature that I wanted from the V1.They relocated the paddles to the standard location behind the grips. Wireless connectivity is seamless with the dongle and they finally included a case in the box. Triggers and buttons are ultra responsive and feel like mechanical mouse clicks. The trigger stops have a much tighter stopping point and also have the mechanical feel when they are engaged. I can only speak for my small hands, but it feels comfortable to use. The build quality is also great. I've had no issues with deadzone or stick drift, though, only time will tell the whole story there.The main reason I kept going back to the V1 was due to the additional shoulder buttons in between the bumpers and triggers. These extra buttons make a huge difference and are the biggest reason why I would recommend this controller over competitors even at this price point. It's a feature that should be standard with all controllers frankly. The PC software is functional, but barebones. Very strange that you even need additional software and there is no integration with Synapse, but it's not the biggest deal.If you're in the market for a controller and you've got some expendable income, this is the one.

As many of the other reviews here and on Google will tell you, this controller is fantastic when it works (although both me and a friend, both adult males, have this controller and we both experience pain near the second joint of our middle fingers after a couple hours of use, due to the shape of the handles). However, after a short amount of use, it will start randomly disconnecting more and more the longer you use it until it becomes unusable. It disconnects whether wired or wireless, with multiple USB-C cables, and on multiple platforms (3 different computers and an Xbox). I sent the original back to Razer under warranty and they agreed it was defective and replaced it with a new controller. Not 2 months later on the new controller and it is doing the exact same thing. I am now on my THIRD controller and have zero confidence that it will last for more than a month or two. Save yourself the heartache and get something else, or at least wait until they figure out the issues with this one.

The first test for a quality controller is shaking it to see if there's anything loose or rattling. This controller passes that test. It is absolutely solid. Zero rattling. If you're a PC m/kb player, this is the perfect controller to use if you're switching to console. The buttons have that satisfying click of m/kb peripherals. It's soft but clicky. The shortened triggers feel nice in that it doesn't feel like you're hitting a plastic wall. There's a softness to the shortened triggers which is so much better than the Xbox Elite controllers. The only negatives are: the app, which makes you open it every time you want to switch to a saved profile. The other negative is the back paddle buttons could have be made so that there is slightly more separation between them. Your pinky and ring fingers will feel mashed together. Overall, I would definitely recommend this, especially if you're a PC gamer.
