I recently picked up this wired controller for my Xbox Series X, and it’s fantastic! The RGB lighting looks great, especially with the partially opaque plastic that shows it off nicely. It’s a breeze to use, just plug and play. Works perfectly for Windows games and Steam too. If you need a reliable controller that also looks cool, this is a great choice!
I bought this after getting stick drift on 2 xbox elite controllers and I instantly fell in love with it. Not only does it look great with the customisable led light it plays amazing. Super smooth sticks and buttons, I prefer paddles on the back instead of buttons like this has but I got used to it very quickly anyway. Great value for money also.
The wired gaming controller is compatible with XBox one. The wired connections and the responsee time is low.
The gaming controller is well designed and lightweight. I got used to it quickly. The subtle vibration response to the actions provides immersive gaming experience.
These have a nice shine and look good around my gaming area. The controller is semitransparent and the LED colors make it look attractive.
Overall, this is a excellent quality gaming controller for XBox.
I requested this for my grandson, so cannot connect it up to demonstrate. It looks very shiny and the finish is great. All the buttons feel responsive with the right amount of resistance and it feels good in my hands.
Not much more I can say until I pass it on..
This is a Vine Voice review, but that has not changed my opinion and I only review items I would buy.
It’s one of the comfiest and best looking controllers I’ve ever owned. The LEDs in the controller aren’t too bright, which is a problem I’ve had with other similar controllers, but they are bright enough to not be too dark. All the buttons are silent which is perfect for me and the back buttons are easy to map.
Overall it’s a high quality, durable and great performing controller that’s great value for money
Very good for gaming, many features including back buttons and many settings in the app on xbox, lights are completely customizable, clicky buttons if you like those aswell as quite an expensive feeling to it even though near enough the same price as the standard xbox controllers

As a gamer, I was intrigued by this wired gaming controller for Xbox and PC gaming. The transparent design looks cool and feels comfortable in my hands during extended gaming sessions. The hall effect joysticks and triggers offer precise control, which is crucial for competitive gameplay. Plug-and-play setup was a breeze, and it works seamlessly with my Xbox Series X and Windows PC. While it lacks wireless capability, the responsiveness and ergonomic design make it a solid choice for serious gamers.
This XBox controller lights up in different colours, vibrates and uses a USB connection (lead included) so there is no charging! This is a good and a bad thing. Having a lead running from the console to the controller can be a pain but it’s not a deal breaker. It’s long enough that it doesn’t go on the floor. It’s great that you can use this controller when your batteries are low in your other controllers.
This controller is black with a nice see-through design. It works well, doesn’t appear to lag and has a solid quality feel. The buttons respond fast and it feels good in the hand.
I think it’s quite pricey (around sixty pounds) but I suppose you get what you pay for, and the design and feel of this controller is first rate. I played Mortal Kombat 11 with it and it was a joy to play while using this controller. Everything worked as it should and the response time was perfect. The coloured lights add something special, especially in a dark environment. Overall, excellent and recommended.
With a regular gamer in the house, the GameSir Kaleid Wired Controller has been of great interest. The ability to customise the handset is fun and I can see that for some that will make the controller unique to your colour preferences, and we had no problem with the controller linking up to the Xbox.
When you have used the same controller for some time regularly, you’ll notice the differences straight away, so be prepared to accommodate these as it will affect your game play. We had no problem with the controller linking up to the Xbox.
The customisation is quite simple, give yourself time with game play and do it that way. The set up guide is helpful, just follow the online set up on the Xbox itself.
If there’s one issue we’ve found is that this controller will intermittently turn the Xbox back on after coming out of a period of game play. Now, this could just be a glitch in the link to our machine. Other that if you are looking to purchase an unbranded customisable wired controller this may be just right for you.
AND! You will have a great bonus of a month’s free game pass! Another incentive to consider the GameSir controlle
I am a proud member of the PC master race, why would I use a controller which is obviously an inferior input device for gaming when a mouse and keyboard are just so much more accurate and precise. Well as someone who’s a fan of JRPG’s like Trails In The Sky or Final Fantasy X I have to admit that a controller is by far the better option. It’s a subjective opinion but for me these sorts of games just feel more natural with a controller.
With that being said we get to the Kaleid controller. It’s got a good quality feel to it, the plastic isn’t cheap and nasty and feels good in the hand. It’s obviously lighter than a wireless controller as there’s no internal batteries but the braided USB cable is long enough for me to sit on my couch without issue.
Both the left and right sticks are responsive, the right and left triggers have a good amount of spring resistance, the ABXY buttons feel fine but the D pad was a bit clicky which I actually liked because I could hear when the button was pushed……it’s a thing!
None of the games I played made use of the motors, so I can’t comment on the feedback they provide or how good they were as everything I played was on PC and all the games were basically JRPG’s
I have to admit though I did love the lighting. When unplugged the plastic is a transparent grey, plug it in though and the lights turn on and you’re treated to a shifting colour pattern. I had to turn the light off to see it in all its glory and it felt like I was holding a UFO from the 90s.
The cost though is where it would lose a few points. The lights are cool and it looks good but it doesn’t add to the functionality of the controller itself. An official controller is cheaper than this, the reason to get a third party controller is usually because they are cheaper than the official ones. This is a good controller but I’d choose an official one if I were playing on Xbox, even some of the design lab ones are the same price as this one. For PC though I’d happily get one of these. I don’t have the ability to connect a controller wirelessly so I need something like this, I also suspect it has more features than I’m using but that’s going to be due to the games I’m playing not making use of them.
Great controller. Nice size and sticks and buttons, triggers etc are superb. Only issue is it disconnects from my Xbox series X if I use my wired headphones, no issues when using my wireless ones. Hopefully a firmware update will rectify the issue and then it will be a 5 star controller.
