Microsoft Xbox One Crete Wireless Controller

Advantages: Xbox One Controller (Model 1708): • The build quality is top notch, the tactile feel is very pleasant, the buttons are responsive and the triggers are smooth for racing fans. • Sensitive mini-joysticks for perfect control. • Ergonomics. The gamepad is very comfortable to hold, the handles are textured, so that the gamepad will not slip out of your hands. • Easy to connect. Connects via Bluetooth or micro-usb. Operating system: on Windows 10, the gamepad works right out of the box; on Windows 7/8, you need to download the drivers from the Xbox website. • There is a 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack. In fact, a very convenient thing, and if you can't hear the sound from the headphones, then it's worth checking the playback parameters.

Disadvantages: I found one drawback - Microsoft officially recommends connecting one gamepad with a stereo jack to a computer via Bluetooth, and if you use two, then the next time you turn it on, there is a great chance that you will have to pair the device again. More often I play alone, so it doesn't bother me much, and if I connect the cable via micro-usb, this problem will not occur.

Comment: The review was updated after two months of use. Very happy with the purchase. The gamepad comes with Duracell batteries (you can buy a battery separately), which lasted for about 10 hours of play. If you have to disassemble this controller, be aware that the only screw is located under the sticker in the battery / battery compartment.

Advantages: Just an excellent PC joy (well, a console one, if there is Juan) Fixed all the shortcomings of the first model: 1- Bumpers are now pressed on the entire surface 2- Bluetooth (now an additional radio module from the shirts is not needed) 3- Textured surface for a comfortable grip 4- Standard (3.5mm) headphone input 5- Great triggers and spider 6- White looks great, black is less impressive

Disadvantages: Batteries (this is + and - at the same time) and not an adequate price in Russia 4390?!? Are you seriously....

Comment: Bluetooth connects only with Win 10, with Win 7/8 / 8.1 either by cable or through their adapter (radio pribluda for 2500).

Advantages: - Model: 1708 / 6CL-00002 - Good build - Sensitive analog sticks, no dead zones - Bluetooth support

Disadvantages: - No built-in battery. I had to buy the original S3V-00014 battery. - If the joystick works via Bluetooth and you need to charge the battery, then the control goes to the cable, and after charging, when you disconnect the cable, the Bluetooth control no longer works, and you have to re-pair.

Comment: Overall happy with the purchase.

Advantages: Fits comfortably in the hands, assortment of connection options, high-quality assembly, soft triggers.

Disadvantages: The vibration force seemed weaker than on the xbox 360 gamepad. But perhaps it just seemed.

Comment: There was a small problem with the bluetooth connection, but not fatal. I read that I need high-quality yusb cables, I came up with a complete one from the nokia 5310 phone. I play on batteries myself, I bought a pack (4 pieces) right away while on some I play others are charging and are waiting in the wings. When the charge ends, vibration stops working, a convenient solution for warning about a low battery.

Advantages: connecting to a Windows 10 PC without problems via bluetooth (you need to take exactly the white TF5-00004 series gamepads). Two gamepads work simultaneously. Ordinary batteries (both plus and minus). Nice material to the touch. White color.

Disadvantages: Ordinary batteries (both plus and minus). A regular Microsoft xbox one play & charge battery complete with a cable costs 1,500 rubles. On my copies, the right stick clicks (imperceptible when playing).

Comment: at the time of writing, they cost 2900r each, bought one for a laptop first, then decided to try hotseat games for two, and bought a second one. Windows 10 initially struggled a bit with connecting two gamepads, but eventually gave up. Now, with the exception of PS4 and Xbox One exclusives, I actually have a game console in the form of a laptop connected to a large TV. The advantages of a PC, I think, are clear to everyone, taking into account the cost of console games up to 3990 rubles each. Joysticks are comfortable, easy to find in the room due to the white color. The back part is in pimples, the rest of the body is matte. The hammers and sticks sense the force of pressing, that is, the more you press, the more responsive to the game. There is a vibration feedback and a white round disk-button that glows with white light throughout the entire operation. I can only compare with joysticks xbox360, the difference, in principle, only in design and Bluetooth (critical for a PC). Well, I would like to have a more anatomical shape, or something. Plus, they could add buns in the form of a touch panel like a Sony, or a built-in speaker. Without all this, there is a slight residue of poverty. UPD: I've been using it for almost a month, three hours a day. The battery is still alive. But I have two joysticks, so twice the runtime. During the game, it is impossible for something to be between the gamepad and the PC receiver (table, legs, cat, etc.), otherwise the connection sometimes starts to dull. Also, the gamepad whistles slightly during operation. Otherwise, I like everything, perhaps the best solution for a PC. But without a discount, I would not take it. Spending over 10 thousand rubles on gamepads is a lot.

Advantages: Installs quickly and easily on windows 10

Disadvantages: The build quality is just a disaster, the gaps are different everywhere, creaks in the hands. Compared to a 360 Xbox gamepad ....

Comment:

Advantages: Ideal for PC gaming

Disadvantages: Expensive

Comment: I took it in a pair for a gamepad with a USB adapter, everything is clearly connected and working. And yes, the minus for the lack of charging from USB is not a minus at all, but a plus: you can buy batteries with a normal charger for many years to your taste, if you have not yet acquired, or sit on batteries, the charge is still consumed quite sparingly, especially with a proprietary adapter ...

Advantages: no dead spots compared to all Chinese counterparts

Disadvantages: price, batteries

Comment: I will try to answer all the questions to which I myself could not find an answer. I took it for a computer with a built-in asus Bluetooth adapter. Also! the joystick has a micro usb input, through which you can directly connect without Bluetooth, but if you play through it all the time, I think sooner or later it will become loose

Advantages: Excellent ergonomics! Nice appearance! Nice spider! Soft triggers! Extremely comfortable sticks!

Disadvantages: As such, no. Well, if only it was difficult to get it. Connection to the PC only by wire (I think temporarily)

Comment: I've been using it for about a month .... I've been playing on a PC ... I've tested a gamepad in all genres (which allow you to use a controller, of course) ... Thanks to the soft sticks, practically no dead ones, the zones in shooters have become much more convenient to aim! The crosspiece has proven itself in fighting games (I tried it on street fighter4 x Tekken and MK9), everything works incredibly well and doesn't lie! The triggers have become soft and this is good ... it has become cooler and more pleasant to "shoot" in shooters and press the "gas pedal" in races! In general, the gamepad turned out to be excellent, I like everything, I am happy with the purchase! There is nothing to find fault with, in principle ... the assembly is good, nothing creaks, no backlash! Someone complains about the backlash in the battery compartment ... complete nonsense, everything is fine! The set even included a 2-day GOLD + subscription! xD The conclusion is this: If someone plays on a PC and has a gamepad from x360, then I do not advise you to immediately run to the store and buy ... You need to touch it, cuddle, shake it before buying and evaluate whether it is worth changing your proven controller from x360 to xone, since the 360 ​​has a small, but advantage (subjective opinion) - it works over the wireless bluetooth protocol, which (this is only temporary) does not have a gamepad from xone when connected to a PC, of ​​course ... But who makes a choice between the x360 controller and the xone , and whoever is not embarrassed by the wire, you can safely take xone ... you will not regret it, whatever one may say, but it has fixed the problems that occur in the 360 ​​... A potential buyer will be happy with this purchase, I am 99% sure

Advantages: Nice appearance Automatic driver installation (on WIN 10) Works with all games that support xbox one (360) gamepads Wireless

Disadvantages: There is no wire for connecting to a PC (Xbox one), but a regular micro-usb from a phone, for example, is suitable. Small backlash at the battery cover

Comment: After DualShock 3, heaven and earth! It feels better, unusual bumpers are pressed from the side (on the dualshock they were pressed from the front). Very light hammers. But you have to get used to and the sticks are smaller than those of the DualShock.
