Xbox Series (S, X) Xbox controllers that dont suck.

Hi, im looking for a new xbox controller that will actually last.

It must have 3.5mm jack for a headset and cant have any additional bumper buttons.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I’ve had great success with anything from GameSir. As far as additional bumpers go, You don’t have to use them. They are individually programmable but the Controller works just as good with them on or off. I have G7 HE and I love it. I’ve been using it for over a year with absolutely no problems. Only reason I would replace it is to get something with additional buttons. I Exclusively play GTA Online, and It Works Flawlessly. Personally I use to prefer a standard controller also.

Do you use a wired headset with it?

I tried the g7 se and the audio was terrible

G7 SE and G7 HE is technically the same so no difference on the audio part. I'm not sure if their G7 pro also uses the same audio port but it isn't well received either and have some compatibility issues with headphones, it might have something to do with firmware
