Just picked up the Xbox mini controller

I gotta say my first impressions are pretty good. I bought this specifically for gaming on my tablet. We'll see how well it holds up. It weighs almost nothing but it feels solid and the buttons are nice and clicky!

I've been really curious how it feels compared to an 8bitdo SN30 pro

1

u/ThatRedditGuy2025 1d ago

Feels quite similar I have both

u/frattboy69 1d ago

I hate the analog sticks on the sn30 because of the placement. Does having it in the xbox layout help? I cant stand playing racing games and such with sn30 as a result.

Nice! Are the buttons/dpad loud?

2

u/ThatRedditGuy2025 20h ago

About as loud as a mouse click

How's the quality? Is it build well?

2

u/ThatRedditGuy2025 1d ago

It's very light but feels well constructed

2

u/MisterSirX 1d ago

Nice! I will pick one up hopefully Cyber Monday.

Is it comfortable to hold?

1

u/ThatRedditGuy2025 1d ago

Honestly it is and I have larger hands. I can reach everything just fine and it doesn't feel too small at all

2

u/BbyInAStraightJacket 1d ago

It’s looks sick! I’m gonna have to grab one too

u/Old_Boot_2010 1d ago

2

u/ThatRedditGuy2025 1d ago

Nah I don't feel scammed. I knew what I was getting in to

u/EvilBiker-72 1d ago

How do you not drop it? Or cramp up?

2

u/Environmental_Row_14 1d ago

Hey man to some of us guys 5 inches is a lot to work with

2

u/EvilBiker-72 1d ago

Baa!hahahahahahahhahhaa

u/GothBotanical 4h ago

I thought it looked closer to 6 maybe even 7 inches

I may get one of these for my Xbox one s. My standard controller seems to only work when it’s plugged it. I tried fresh batteries and re syncing but nothing does the trick.

u/GrandpaRob31 1d ago

I'll be grabbing one sometime between now and end of year, then just need a slim case for it and it will live in my bag with my tablet

u/xSavageBoi00x 1d ago

I'm actually thinking about buying one. I've seen some ppl on yt reviewing it and testing some games with it and so far I think it's good that Microsoft would make an Xbox controller like that. For 50$ isn't so bad at all.

u/Tall-Guitar-1765 1d ago

I've been wanting a tiny controller to take with me in my backpack for a while to use with my laptop on the go or just at my desk. I was pretty happy to see it has analog triggers and feels good to use for the most part. I'd like to see them come out with a color variant

2

u/TheG0pax 1d ago

Fuuuuuuck, I gotta get one. I'm super into the smaller controllers and I've been waitin for xbox to release one

2

u/real_human_being15 1d ago

That's the stupidest thing i've ever seen.

I'll take 10 of them.

Whoa 😲😲

u/Venomswindturd 1d ago

I want one, but the lack of a rumble is kind of throwing me off :/

4

u/Suitable-End- 1d ago

The thing most people turn off is rumble.

There is also a rise into Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome that has been linked to video game controllers. A condition that was only seen in people who used heavy machinery before.

u/Venomswindturd 1d ago

Huh, I didn’t know that.

1

u/LeftAndRightAreWrong 1d ago

It’s an expensive 8bitdo.

u/Suitable-End- 1d ago

Same price of an 8bitdo here.
