Razer Wolverine V3 Tournament Edition Wired Gaming Controller: Licensed for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC - 6 Remappable Buttons - Fast Triggers - USB-C Cable - Wired Tournament Mode - Black

I'm just going to make an itemized list:Everything is clicky except the bumpers which feel like bumpers, so still kinda clicky.The triggers become tactile clicky buttons with the stops in place, they're still the mushiest things on the controller, but this is as good as it gets without using a fancy a switch controller that lacks analog input entirely.All the bonus buttons are super comfortable, the extra shoulders are easier to reach than the triggers, all the back buttons are comfortable to rest on, easy to press, but not easy to accidentally press while doing bayonetta combos.The Dpad is great, it's a big shield pad, works great for fighting games diagonals are easy to hit, you can absolutely use this as a fight pad if you don't want to buy a pro style daily driver and a fight pad individually.I see what people are saying about the analog sticks being stiff, but I like them just fine, they'll probably break in. no changeable, tops, but these are fine for everything I've triedThe software is mid, it does what you need but it does like a steam big picture full-screen thing, and it really wants you to control it with the pad, also you can't save multiple profiles to the pad which sucks, but that's my only complaint.They fixed the light that shines directly in your face on the V2.I haven't had it long enough to vouch for long term durability, but I bought this to replace my V2 chroma that's seen daily use for like three years, and the only noticeable damage it's suffered is the printing on the buttons wearing off.

This controller has got a lot going for it, feels great in every way, I was used to dual rear paddles, but adapted quickly to 4 and stopped using front buttons completely. And the trigger locks have upped my game considerably, but it’s all for naught since this controller has some serious reliability flaws on PC.I play hours of competitive pvp daily and this controller will work fine for about a week or two before it starts exhibiting serious issues.1st controller: worked solid for about two weeks before the haptic feedback would suddenly jump to max and keep vibrating excessively while jerking my aim in random directions, have to fight the stick to get it back on target and unplug the controller and replug it to stop the excessive vibrating. The issue is progressive, it started happening once every couple of days and slowly progressed until it was happening several times a match, totally unacceptable.I returned it for a replacement which was solid for about a week then suddenly began disconnecting in the middle of a match, constantly… I had about 10 disconnected controller errors in a 15 minute period. This was not a physical wire connection issue as others have had, pressing any button would immediately get the controller working and the error would go away until the next one popped up.Both controllers also have some stick drift on the left stick out of the box when set to 3% dead zone, but not terrible. Flicking the stick causes it to reset properly and stop drifting, my 2nd controller has the least drift. Setting the zone to 0% causes a lot of drift, so I keep it at 3%. In comparison, my gamesir T4 had zero drift with 0% dead zone, it took 7 months of daily use to cause just a tiny bit of drift at 0%, unfortunately the back buttons do not last and begin sticking after constant use, which led me to the Razer controller.I paid full price for the razer and did not get a free one, so this is my honest review of a $100 controller with serious glitches. Great packaging and premium feel (when it works.) amazon won’t give me a 3rd replacement, so I’ll just have to return for a refund, which is too bad because I really like this controller, but I can’t be out $100 for something that is giving me these kinds of problems when controllers for less than half the price don’t have these kinds of issues.I would steer clear; you can google the issues above and find that many people are having similar problems with this controller.One other issue I had with this controller on PC is that my keyboard and mouse will not work in game while this controller is connected. This prevents being able to utilize any sort of chat function or alternative control of your character while the controller inevitably glitches out. Even going into windowed mode to try and do something on the desktop while the game runs keeps my mouse function locked out, I have to ctrl+alt+delete to get it back. I've never encountered this issue with any other controller on PC.Also, as others have pointed out, the USB-C connection on this controller is as cheap as they come. It's the only physical part of the controller that feels like complete junk, it disconnects easily and wiggles under the weight of the cable right out of the box. Terrible oversight considering this is a wired only controller. If you're set on taking on the challenge of owning this controller, I would seriously suggest using a Mag safe usb-c style connection adapter so that you can minimize wear on the port.*Update*I had to downgrade my rating from 3 stars to 1 star. I thought I had been able to address the random disconnect error by using Xbox polling mode (250Mhz) instead of PC mode (1000mhz), this actually stopped the random d/c errors, and I was willing to use 250hz for reliability. However, a new problem entirely has emerged; the controller now just shuts itself off completely in the middle of a game. Pressing any button does nothing to turn it back on. I have to disconnect it from the PC and reconnect, then press the Xbox button repeatedly-almost like I'm giving the dumb thing CPR to get to 'come back to life.' A few times I thought it was dead completely because it didn't respond after repeated attempts, but it eventually comes back on, absolutely ridiculous. It's already cost me a competitive match, such unreliable junk unworthy of "Tournament" anywhere in its name.It's really unfortunate, because the Razer design team did a fantastic job on this controller, if only the hardware and software team were as good. Because for whatever reason, this controller is determined to misbehave no matter what you do to try to make it work. And I see this is a common theme across many of Razer's devices.

The Razer Wolverine V3 Tournament Edition is a nice step up from the previous model. The underside button placement is much better and the buttons feel built to last. And those two extra buttons on the top are MONEY! I’ve had no drift at all on the sticks and after continuous daily use there are no signs of wear and tear on the buttons.One drawback is the USB connection. The cable plugs straight out the back without support, and mine started disconnecting from getting bumped. I added a 90-degree adapter and that solved the issue. I still wish it had replaceable thumb sticks in different heights, but extenders do the trick.Overall, it is a durable, responsive controller that feels great once you work around the USB port design. Beats the previous version and the elite controller hands down.

Pros1. 6 buttons2. Feels good in hands3. Good price4. Usable on xbox and pc5. Easy to overclock on pc with razer controller app6. The Hall effect stick on razer wolverine v3 is better than traditional sticks for driftCons1. Cord feels kinda cheap2. My port on roller got damaged easily but still works, only turns off at a certain angle3. If on pc only I recommend not getting this. I would recommend ps5 roller from scuff or battlebeaver because ps5 rollers are better on overclocks.4. Hall effect sticks usually aren't as accurate as tmr or traditional sticks. Tmr are somewhat new and best against drift. Hall effect is ok against drift. Traditional is terrible with drift. (most rollers will have drift out of box by default)

The controller fits nicely in my hands. I really enjoy having the buttons on the underside. My fingers aren’t long and I refuse to learn claw grip XD.The ui to macro and fine tune is ok. I get more fine tuning from the steam settings. I have logged hundreds of hours with it.I didn’t give it five stars because the usb c connection weakened on the controller and I had to modify it so it wouldnt come out. I understand the design but a locking mechanism would be clutch.
