What makes it special?

Instead of a lever, you use precise directional buttons. Its all-button layout has four remappable extra buttons with fast mapping, especially useful for fighting games. The almost A4-sized low-profile body has magnetic feet. Inside are 16 hot-swappable Kailh Wizard low-profile switches; an optional upgrade kit adds linear switches, keycaps and a wrist rest.

Connection and compatibility

Windows 10 (1903) or later connects via the included 2.4 GHz adapter or USB. Switch and Switch 2 use Bluetooth or USB. SOCD cleaning, tournament lock, independent controls and Ultimate Software V2 help you tune your inputs and layout.

Good to know

The 1,000 mAh battery is rated for up to 20 hours, with around three hours of charging. At roughly 1,097 g it remains planted on a desk. This is not an Xbox controller; there is a separate Xbox edition.

In the box

Controller, 2.4 GHz adapter, four locking caps, cable and manual.
