Victrix Gambit Prime Wired Tournament Controller - Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10/11 PC

Was a little iffy about buying this controller because of some of the reviews. This controller is very lightweight I seen a lot of people saying that as a negative I actually like it more than heavier controllers I have used in the past. Really like the trigger stops it makes my reaction time a lot faster on shooters. Sometimes I will accidentally ads when I’m not trying because it is so sensitive so took a little getting use to that. I have had problems with thrustmaster and Microsoft having stick drift very quickly. I have only been using the Victrix for a week or two but have had no drifting issues and have been able to keep deadzones on lower settings. The victrix app is kind of annoying to get use to because you have to adjust your volumes in that but not bad once you figure it out. Kontrol freaks fit good on the right stick but on the left stick I had to sand paper the plastic edges on the kontrol freak so it wouldn’t rub on the victrix. Great controller so far for shooters like R6 and COD would recommend giving it a try. Possibly the best controller I have used.

So I am a controller collector. Everything from Astro, Turtle Bea streetch, PDP, PowerA, Razer, Hex youGaming, Battle Beaver, RIG, GameSir, SMX, Gulikit, 8BitDo, to off brand white-labeled, to first party MS/SONY/Nintendo. My favorites have become those with functional back buttons with longer analog stick options have grown to be my favorite.All that being said, the PDP Vitrix series is my go to. Great price. Tons of customization options. Reliable controller. With the ability to calibrate and update firmware if necessary. This installment in the series is what I would call the ramped down version. Essentially identical to the original Gambit, but no case and only one face plate. Everything else is near identical... The button assigning process... the component swapping process... The only odd thing you will need to know about is if you are using it on a PC, you will have to hit the X/Home/middle button to power it on. I had the thing plugged in and couldn't figure how to turn it on until I hit every button and finally realized it.HIGHLY recommend this beast of an entry level competitive controller... Especially under $75 brand new!

Do not buy please if you see this review it stopped working after a month or two and it’s completely broken.

So far love this controller. Bought it to replace the Xbox controller the console came with and I'm glad I did. Quick learning curve with it.

This controller claims it's the fastest out there for xbox consoles but that is a false claim. This controllers input speed is outclassed by the Gamesir controller and also the victrix is more expensive and feels cheap in your hands. The plastic feels weak and cheap. 0/10 wish I never bought.

I just picked up the Gambit Prime because my off brand controller died after a few years of use. I tried replacing it with one of those "submarine controllers" from logitech and hated how plastic and cheap it felt in my hands.Enter the Gambit Prime. Now, I know this is a controller mostly aimed for people who play FPS games but as someone who mainly plays lengthy CRPGs this thing is a treat. It sits comfortably in my (small/medium sized) hands and the buttons feel satisfying. The extra switches on the back (you can swap out the back plate very easily for either two or four back switches) are awesome for mapping stuff like healing spells and potions from my hotbar. The joysticks glide like a dream and feel smooth and the controller has a nice weight to it -- obviously it won't be as heavy as it's wireless brother given the lack of extra components, but it still feels good to hold in your hands.I really only have two gripes about this controller -- one, it looks like it forces you to use it's lengthy 3m cable to connect to your laptop. I tried connecting one of my own shorter USB C cables and the controller wouldn't power on. Not a big deal if you're mostly a console player but it can get a bit tangly when connected to the PC.The other thing, is while the controller is comfortable and has nice grips/texture on the front, this doesn't extend to the back of the controller. I wish Victrix sold more custom backplates for this controller separately as I would definitely buy one with more of a textured grip.

Simply fantastic. It does not get better for the money in comparison to other top end controller manufacturers.

Product Review: Mixed Feelings on DurabilityI was really impressed with this controller for the first nine months—it performed flawlessly for gaming, with great responsiveness and a comfortable design. However, despite never being dropped or mistreated, the RB button has started falling off. A friend of mine had the same model, and his LB button had the same issue, so this seems like a recurring problem.Until this happened, it was easily a 5-star product. But for something that’s supposed to last longer, I’m disappointed with the durability. If the buttons were built to last, this would be an easy recommendation. As it stands, I’d be cautious unless you’re okay with potential repairs down the line.
