Hyperkin Xenon Wired Controller for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One & Windows 10|11, PC, Plug and Play Gaming Gamepad with 3.5MM Audio Jack, Impulse Triggers - Red - Officially Licensed

Ordered this as an early birthday present for myself on Cyber Monday 2025, since my birthday is literally right around the corner from BF/CM. I must say, I am absolutely in love with the controller. It feels as natural as an official wired 360 pad from back when I used to play the 360. While I wish they kept the "ringed quadrants" around the Xbox "X" in the center, the way they implemented the status light feels unobtrusive and I don't feel distracted by it. I also kind of wish they had went with the Hall-Effect sticks like they did with the DutchesS, for longer-term support... Because I feel like when I FINALLY DO get stick drift on the controller, scalpers will have scalped or these will be so hard to find that it'd be better to buy an official refurbished 360 controller with a wireless adapter on eBay. Functionality on Linux works as it should. While in my distro, it shows up as a "Generic X-Box gamepad (sic)", the DutchesS shows up exactly as it should. So Linux compatibility isn't the BEST out of box, but it does the job and both Steam and all my games work just fine with it. :) I can't say I've encountered stick drift like others have, but I won't say I will never encounter it either. Thankfully, I got it for pretty cheap on Cyber Monday (~$30USD). So that takes some of the sting off if I develop it early enough. It's definitely taken some heavy usage since I got it (my fiance's constant addiction to MK and me with both Guitar Hero games and tons of shooters and whatnot), as well as a few drops on the hardwood flooring here and there, and has held up just fine for me. Overall, it's a great addition to my DutchesS controller. Still might use the DutchesS more due to the Hall Effect sticks... But it's an amazing remake of the 360 controller and I love it! I just hope they make a revision sometime to iron out some of the kinks with it that folks seem to be having. :D

Great product! Has the classice 360 feel and look down to a T... well, 98% of the way. My only two takeaways for this controller are: its not wireless, this isnt a deal killer for me, but might be for you. Luckily the cord is pretty long, and is usb to usbc (so you could get a longer one). The other take away is mer of a personal nit pick, but its the weight. It's quite light. Personally I like a little heft to my controller, but again its far from a deal breaker. At this price, I couldn't not recommend it. It's a great little throw back with modern upgrades (hall effect sticks). Absolutely worth the money.

Very nice y2k retro controller. It is a nice little conversation starter when I invite my friends over. All the buttons and sticks feel great. I use it for my PC and it registers the controller as a standard Xbox controller, so it is supported for all controller games, no extra setup required (I presume it also works for an actual Xbox as well, but I don't have one). It has a headphone jack which is nice. The only downside is that the pause/select and clip buttons don't match the rest of the controller.

This controller was very well put together in terms of trying to replicate the look and feel of the original 360 controller. Overall the casing feels very close to the original and the buttons do as well. It is also very light as this is just a wired controller, so no weight from double A batteries which I like. The bumpers and face buttons are a bit more loud and thumpy, but still done well and I personally enjoy the thumpiness of it. However some things worth noting: The original 360 controller had a different stick curve where pushing the stick by small amounts had more resistance. This replica mimics more of the modern controller from Xbox where it does not have the change of resistance and is more of a linear curve, unlike the original. However this is not a bad thing. A lot of games now also have response curve settings (FPS wise at least) to help change how the curve reacts along with your stick sensitivity. For older titles from this generation or even current ones it overall feels great. Hyperkin did a great job of providing a close feel to the 360 controller while giving some feature sets from modern controllers that I think balance nicely. Only thing I think they should consider changing (if I were to be ABSOLUTELY nit picky) is change the menu, share, and view button colors on the controllers besides the black model to match with the scheme a little better. I also think they should come out with a wireless version for those who would prefer that. Overall for those who are interested in the older 360 design or loved the design back during that generation of console gaming but wish for it to be modernized with current features, this is an excellent choice and I’d personally recommend it and may purchase another in the future for myself.

It's a really nice controller and works well with my Xbox Series X. But because it's a USB C plug and not a direct wire, it will eventually give up and stop working. And the controller doesnt work without the wire. I knew it was going to happen bc that's what's gonna happens in general when dealing with wires like these. It's worth the purchase if you really love the 360 controller design. Which I do very much but now it's like money down the drain because you'll either need to buy another controller or a new wire and hope it's saved your current purchase. And what's sucks is that I can't find another controller of the same 360 layout for a cheaper price that works with my Xbox Series X. Pleaseeee make these controllers strictly wired!! Because it does not work wireless and the constant movement of the wire will and is damaging the port.

I think this is, a good controller video game pad. I think it makes my, gameplay better and faster. I think the buttons and triggers are good. I also think they’re sturdy. I give it a 10 out of 10.

Perfect remote for anybody that loves xbox360 games or uses emulators this company and 8bitdo I use I’m getting 3 more remotes from hyperkin I loved this company so much when they gave me there company logo as a sticker I put it in my Xbox x to style my console it’s been through a lot it works amazing a bit iffy on how the plastic felt but it’s a good quality remote definitely buy again as a console and pc gammer

I *really* wanted to like this controller. But it is not up to snuff. (A quick disclaimer: I do not beat my controllers up or pound buttons or the likes.) I had seen the reports that the D-pad was unreliable. Other people have said the controller is perfect and they love it. That doesn't tell you whether or not they're using the D-pad, or what for. There are still other comments, if you hunt around the web, that the D-pad works but is not suitable for games where precision and timing are required. This has been my experience. I use the controller to play Hollow Knight on Steam - that's a Metroidvania style platformer, if you're unfamiliar with it. Long story short, the majority of the times when I get killed or damaged, it is the direct fault of this controller. The D-pad left input is unreliable. Sure, it works every time when nothing is happening in the game and I just test it. Whether "rolling" the pad from, say, up over to left, or just inputting left, it'll work on a basic test. But in actual gameplay, it fails frequently enough to just stop my character from moving to the side at critical moments - and the game is all about critical moments. The final straw for me was when after about 10-12 hours of normal usage, the A button has begun to fail; my double-jump sequence is now failing quite frequently. A fifty-dollar controller should not have an issue like that after barely a dozen hours. My ~$18 Voyee third-party controllers are cheaply made and hold up after hundreds of hours of use. It's a shame, because what works on this controller is nice. Many people do not like wired controllers and that's their prerogative; wired is always more reliably more responsive than bluetooth, and that's important for the games I use it for. The feel and mass of the controller is great. It is more responsive than the Voyee; I got through the whole game on the Voyee but now going back to it after using the Xenon, I can perceive how slow that controller is, and how the inputs do not seem to last as long; you have to press the button *hard* to make the jump go as high as a normal tap on the Xenon does. But the Xenon is just not up to standard in all of the ways it needs to be. It could maybe be fine for some games, or if I only used the D-pad for a menu selection, and if the A button failure is a fluke which a replacement Xenon could remedy. But I am loathe to try another Xenon after combining my D-pad experience with the reports I've seen around the web of the same thing. I'll try to find another controller which I enjoy and whose reliability matches its price. Disappointed.

Un buen mando por cable, para el PC, con la ergonomía típica de los mandos de la Xbox

Classic feel, good quality. would definitely buy again, and would recommend to others.

The best Xbox 360 controller replica I ever gotten, insane quality, just get it !

MErveilleuse Manette ... un virtuose un genie !!!!!! j en acheterais encore une fidele au modele originale que dire ? FANTASTIQUE et qui plus est un rapport qualité prix !!

Pour les vrais amoureux de la manette d’Xbox 360, par pitié, n’achetez pas ça. Je l’ai renvoyée tellement elle faisait cheap, elle n’est pas aussi belle en vrai, elle est trop légère, un tout petit peu plus petite et mince que la manette officielle. Je n’ai pas retrouvé les mêmes sensations que sur la 360, le fait qu’elle soit filaire ne me dérange pas, mais pour un PC c’est plus confortable que sur console de salon, car le fil n’était pas assez long. Très déçue car je l’a voulais vraiment.
