Customers frequently mention the high-quality build, ease of use, and satisfying feel of the Recon controller, particularly praising its remappable buttons and comfortable grip. However, some users reported issues with stick drift and occasional connection problems, especially when used with PCs. A few also noted that the controller is wired and that some users found the bumpers and triggers to be less responsive than expected. Overall, the positive feedback on the controller's design and features outweighs the negative comments regarding functionality.
