Great replica of the og!
This controller was very well put together in terms of trying to replicate the look and feel of the original 360 controller. Overall the casing feels very close to the original and the buttons do as well. It is also very light as this is just a wired controller, so no weight from double A batteries which I like.The bumpers and face buttons are a bit more loud and thumpy, but still done well and I personally enjoy the thumpiness of it.However some things worth noting:The original 360 controller had a different stick curve where pushing the stick by small amounts had more resistance. This replica mimics more of the modern controller from Xbox where it does not have the change of resistance and is more of a linear curve, unlike the original. However this is not a bad thing. A lot of games now also have response curve settings (FPS wise at least) to help change how the curve reacts along with your stick sensitivity.For older titles from this generation or even current ones it overall feels great. Hyperkin did a great job of providing a close feel to the 360 controller while giving some feature sets from modern controllers that I think balance nicely. Only thing I think they should consider changing (if I were to be ABSOLUTELY nit picky) is change the menu, share, and view button colors on the controllers besides the black model to match with the scheme a little better. I also think they should come out with a wireless version for those who would prefer that.Overall for those who are interested in the older 360 design or loved the design back during that generation of console gaming but wish for it to be modernized with current features, this is an excellent choice and I’d personally recommend it and may purchase another in the future for myself.

Brings me back!
Controller works great and feels great! I brings me back to when I was younger with my Xbox 360, but just updated to work with modern games. If you don't mind wired controllers and loved the 360 controller, I recommend getting this!

best budget replica so far.
oh lord take me back to the days when games were well made. right so this controller shame its not wireless but it works and takes me back to the days of the 360 i missed its perfection cept for it having issues with one game RE4 (2005) let the letter represent the deadzones it doesnt work in (X) it seems it stops leon dead the minute i make it go northeast or even northwest and the aiming in those areas even southeast and southwest are slow and to a dang crawl man. i thought i was losing my mind but i tried Warframe and Resident evil 1 remake (2015 remaster) and that issue never happened on those. now i did see a one star review about the dpad and the A button failing looked everywhere for what that guy was on about but never found it heck even scoured reddit and 4chan and so far nothing. i think hombre got sold a defective one off the lot (there's always a chance) but regardless its a good controller if your looking to go back to the old ways for a fraction of the price of an official series x/s controller. if we have someone from hyperkin who worked on it seeing and reading this maybe make a software that can update the controller and eliminate the irritation with RE4 2005 im adapting to using dpad to move due to this and like muscle memory i keep going to left stick....i know RE4 2005 might not be the only game with this issue but for what its worth its better than PDP or friggen power A controllers ill tell you that much. the boys in R&D in hyperkin this is for you. you lot are not paid enough if we have a higher up reading this give those men a raise sonny jim they earned it and may have made a customer out of me for a good while.

Very close
This recreation of the Xbox 360 controller feels really good. The overall fit and feel in your hands is akin to having an OG controller again. Two things stood out to me though. One is the weight of the controller feels very light, even compared to a wired OG controller. The other is the thumb stick plastics/rubber feel just a little bit cheap. The rubber tops on them just aren't up to par. Other than that, all the other buttons feel exactly as they should!

You Really Can't Beat the Classics
This review is for the Xbox 360 ReplicaPros:-Feels almost identical to the original 360 controller (sticks and the outer shell are a bit different)-Buttons and sticks are responsive-Works on my PC and my Xbox-No stick drift after a month of constant use-Comfortable to hold for extended periods of timeCons:-Does not have a battery pack for wireless useOverall this is a pretty good controller and for the price I half expected it to develop stick drift after constantly playing games such as Warframe and Destiny 2 like my Razer Wolverine did. I really just wanted that feel of the 360 controller again since Xbox One controllers don't have that same feedback when pressing buttons. I also did not want a bunch of extra paddles or some sort of control software that barely functions and this controller fit that category perfectly. If you want a Xbox 360 style controller that you just want to plug in and play then this is definitely a perfect match fo you.

Nostalgic
The Hyperkin Xenon Xbox controller effectively captures the nostalgic essence of the original Xbox 360 experience, with a design that feels both familiar and fresh. The build quality is impressive, providing a sturdy and comfortable grip that enhances gaming sessions. However, while it excels in mimicking the classic look and feel, some may find the button responsiveness slightly lacking compared to modern standards. Overall, the Xenon is a great choice for those looking to relive their early Xbox days without sacrificing too much on performance.
