Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma Wired Gaming Pro Controller for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC: RGB Lighting - Remappable Buttons & Triggers - Mecha-Tactile Buttons & D-Pad - Trigger Stop-Switches - Black

TL;DR: Great controller, super comfy for someone with big hands. Some very minor annoyances, but a big improvement from the V1 that takes a bit to get used to.-Controller is fantastic out of the box. Has all the features the V1 did except the media control at the bottom of the controller. Some major gripes I have coming from the V1 to this controller;1. Lack of RGB control & software compatibility. The V1 didn't have either, but it would have been nice to see it implemented into the newer model. This means the colors around the controller are stuck on changing rainbow colors, and cannot be turned off or set to a single static color.2. Button placement... As someone who uses both the menu buttons adjacent the home button quite often, the left menu button is positioned directly in front of the left joystick making it a massive pain to reach your thumb over all the time. I genuinely can't see any reason it couldn't remain in its original spot similar to the V1, but all the other buttons are perfectly fine.3. The port for the wire has a sizeable gap beneath it, giving the USB-C a bit too much leeway and thus being fairly loose. Have yet to encounter any actual issues with it (hasn't come unplugged, etc.)All round great controller, but if you're coming from the V1 expecting 'new and improved', it's more of a 'different but better' kind of experience. The mech switches for the AXBY buttons have squish now, which took a ton of getting used to compared to the clicky V1 switches. After using both for some time, though, I can say I do actually prefer the V2 squishy switches. As I don't use the additional buttons at all I can't speak to their performance or placement much, though I did think the bottom buttons were a bit hard to reach.

This is the best feeling, most ergonomic controller of all time. The overall handling is reminiscent of an Xbox 360 controller, which felt really good. The handles have a rubber coating which feels great. I like the overall size and am partial to bigger controllers.The thumbsticks have a nice comfortable rubber coating that isn’t too sticky or too hard.The D Pad is large and has a really nice click when pressed. Although it’s a hard plastic and it’s concave at the same time so it doesn’t feel good to use the middle part of your thumb for the left and down side of the D Pad. You have to get used to using the tip of your thumb for everything. If Razer would’ve coated the D Pad in rubber this wouldn’t have been an issue.The lightning is really nice and bounces off your hands creating a nice glow.The controller is light because there’s no battery so it’s easy to hold.The back paddles are great because you can lay the controller on your leg and they won’t be pressed. You don’t have to treat this thing like an egg, always worrying where you’re going to set this down so the paddles don’t get pressed, like another big name controller.The USB-C port is really wobbly, however. You need to find a light USB-C cable that carries both data and power. Most light cables only carry power. The cable it comes with is a little heavy but it has a large head at the USB-C tip so it won’t wobble. Any other cable will wobble like crazy. I’m thinking the cable for the Elite 2 would work best because it’s light and Carrie’s data but I can’t find mine. Right now I’m using the default cable and it’s working fine. I predict this won’t last long though because the USB-C port itself is so wobbly for the actual USB-C part.I’m not returning this though because the controller itself is the most comfortable controller I ever held. There’s always a catch with Razer and that comes with the territory.The vibration is pretty good but nothing crazy like the DualSense.I got this because I’m a bit of a Razer fan and to me the positives outweigh the negatives. Buying this controller is like getting married to a celebrity. You know it won’t last long, but the time together will be amazing.

Quite honestly, this controller is better than any of my xbox elite controllers. I don’t use the extra buttons at all. But the stick sensitivity is perfect right out of the box- which is good because I can’t figure out how to customize sensitivity settings for xbox one s.Only beefs I have at all is that it’s exclusively wired. Even so, without any legit aim customization, it’s still the best fps controller I’ve ever owned by a wide mile.Idk why. Perhaps the ergonomics? But it feels great and works far better than expected. Totally worth being stuck with wired connection.And I’ve spent thousands of dollars on controllers over the years, fyi. NEVER buy the generic 75$ ones- they break down almost instantly. The elite ones work and are sturdy for a month or so. But even after full refurbishment, they don’t perform as well as this one does. STG-update two months post purchase- stick drift- the bane of any gamer’s gaming life- so must return rrr- Updated 1/9/24- customer service was amazing and attentive at replacing my faulty original controller. The new one I received, literally within a week of submitting my claim (though a process but more than acceptable) has never faltered at any point- although it’s been dropped a few times. My definite go to. Xbox elites remain in their cases. This has been a very steady and reliable controller I’ve ever owned. I’m Razer for life. Why I Must update my review to 5 stars. Excellent hardware. Superb customer service. I can’t possibly say enough good things about the company at this point.Trust. You will not regret it.
