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

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.

What a great controller. Obviously based on the 360, the controller feels, great good button responsiveness. Has a good weight and feel in hand, not cheap at all. Cord has enough length to play from a decent distance. Will buy again to have an extra.

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.

Great look and feel. Only wish it was wireless but I get why it's not

I ordered this controller for my Xbox Series X console. I always loved the feel and control of the old Xbox 360 controller, so I was excited to see this when it was first announced. After testing it a bit on a few different games, I can say I am overall happy with this controller, albeit a few complaints and disappointments. The pros: - the buttons are very snappy and responsive, they don't stick or feel sluggish while pressing - the triggers have a nice spring to them - the sticks do not get stuck and can be moved and clicked with ease. No signs of drift issues yet - overall scheme greatly resembles the old school Xbox 360 controller while having additional buttons for the Xbox Series X functions The cons: - feels way too light. I wish it had similar weight to the original 360 controller - plastic on some parts feels to be on the cheaper side of quality - home button doesn't light up like original 360 controller does. Only has a white light above it. - no wireless option; you have to be wired the whole time (not an issue for me since I prefer wired, but I know some prefer or need wireless) Overall, it's a decent controller. I admit I'm a bit disappointed seeing how this was released in comparison to the Hyperkin Duke controller, which in my opinion was way better. If you really want a Xbox 360 controller for Xbox One or Series X, then sure go for it. At $50 retail though, I would wait until there's a sale if you do not need it immediately. I was expecting more for the $50 retail price.

If you grew up with or are nostalgic of the Xbox 360, you’ll feel right at home with this controller. Faithfully recreated the feel of the Xbox 360 controller. It’s a near perfect replica. Build quality is superb as well, analog sticks and buttons hold up very well, and I can tell it’ll last a long time. My only complaint is that it’s wired, but that’s a problem on Microsoft’s end and not Hyperkin’s. Overall a really solid product and am extremely satisfied with the quality. Has a lot of parity with my OEM 360 controllers, with the addition of extra buttons for modern Series X|S functions. 10/10.
