Razer Wolverine V3 Pro Wireless Gaming Controller: Licensed for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC - 6 Remappable Buttons - Fast Triggers - Customizable Thumbsticks - Wired Tournament Mode - Black

I own most of the Razer controllers that they've released (pictured are just some that aren't in storage) so I'm what you may call an expert and also bad with money. Razer controllers prior have all had some issues to put it lightly, or in the case of the Raiju's so much so that the lineup is now effectively dead in favor of the Wolverine. The Wolverine v3 Pro feels like a true culmination of all the past controller issues and questionable design decisions being ironed out. I will list my own personal highlights compared to previous offerings as I do not see any of the "tech reviewers" mentioning them. + Tension on thumb sticks and full pull on triggers nearly identical to stock Xbox, stick tension slightly tighter from what I can tell and it feels amazing compared to how loose the tension on every Razer controllers has been prior + Thumbstick material and texture provides actual grip, previous controllers were slip city + ACTUALLY GOOD AND ERGONOMIC BACK BUTTONS OH MY GOD HOW I'VE LONGED FOR THIS + Face buttons have been changed for the better, sound and feel is still clicky like Razer is known for but much more muted, and in general they've felt less fatiguing to use + M1 and M2 switches changed to be same as bumper, previously they were not and had slightly different feeling actuation force needed so if you tested your fingers on the extra buttons you may have accidentally triggered them due to the lesser force needed + Actually good trigger stops bravo 👏 + Wireless that works without issue!!! On a Razer controller no less wow! + Good polling rates??? 250hz 2.4 wireless polling rate on Xbox is double than the standard and elite controller offerings from Xbox, finally a pro controller from Razer that actually lives up to the pro name. With up to 1000hz wired on PC Razer has finally caught up to current year and as a result this is their most responsive feeling controller ever. + Razer actually priced it fairly for a wireless pro controller, remembered to include a carrying case this time, and included a 10ft cable for wired. Immaculate W + Hall effect sticks in a big name pro controller, to see Razer adopt this before Microsoft and Sony absolutely blows my mind, they actually did it. Bravo. If you play on Xbox and PC it's a no brainer. While they could certainly do more in offering a wider variety of stick options, let alone the means of easily obtaining more which historically they've never done outside of ordering a "replacement set" at absurd prices from their parts store, I'm just in awe that Razer actually knocked it out of the park for once. Honestly I'm just in shock they actually priced it at $200, I feel like I actually got what I paid for so the finance team must be on vacation or something.

Ok, Out of the box I immediately set deadzones to zero. Upon checking found there is an inherent centering issue that causes heavy drift reading with no way to recalibrate. Pros: Feel of buttons are great, tactile, responsive, good placement. The “feel” of the controller is one of the bests. The trigger locks to enable a mouse click tactile pull is satisfying to say the least. All these features are great enough for me to over look other features not given at this price range ie - tension adjustment, full button mapping, lackluster app interface, polling rate to name a few. Major con: However, having out of box centering issues this high is just kind of a hard one to look over. All HE sticks do have centering performance concerns. I just wish this would center closer to 0,0 (I know it’s impossible to get true 0,0 reading). But no matter what I do, direction I flick it, it re-centers back to these values. I’d have to widen the dead zones, sacrificing a substantial amount responsiveness which defeats the purpose of buying a performance controller. Maybe I’ll try to exchange and hope I get something better, but if it’s worse, it’s a full refund. Will update review if I do. But not to hopeful as more research, this is a more common than a one off situation. UPDATE: GOT A NEW REPLACEMENT (3.5-3.9 Stars max) Firmware updater released on PC. But now can be updated on Xbox App however the app sucks. (Edit 2025 new update no longer supports Xbox app firmware update must use pc anpp again..wtf tired of this company) Upon launching app a progress bar starts loading a percentage w/ the message do not unplug. No indication it’s updating. Apparently it did. But while I couldn’t verify if it’s the latest firmware. I already lost confidence in the software(& probably the Razer brand too) and updated through PC anyway. Major gripe about the PC updater: it doesn’t confirm if you already have the latest firmware. It just flashes and installs… is this freeware from github or a hardware gaming company w a $200 controller? Smh Pros: quality weight and feel, rgb(if you even care for this?), tactile mouse click triggers, a really decent clicky gated d-pad (better than most), a lot of extra decently placed buttons that feel good, adjustable haptic, multiple profile config saves, easy quick instant button mapping. Carrying case. Cons: app, firmware update required, updated app didn’t include a calibration option, Outdated 2020 Hall Effect tech used in 2024 when newer VRS is more economical, durable, accurate, and energy efficient. No adjustable tension for a $200 price tag. Only two extra plastic thumb sticks, why not just throw in two identical pairs? They’re plastic anyways. You still need a dongle. Face buttons could feel “mushy” to some, And I could be wrong, but I don’t think it’s Bluetooth as they advertise. Size, if only it was a couple centimeters larger it would probably rest perfectly in most hands. It’s not switch pro small but with back paddle placement it can be noticeable. Biggest con. Razer as a company is incompetent. Do not buy if you do not have a windows pc. Razer is company who creates an Xbox controller with an Xbox app, but does not push firmware updates through the Xbox. You have to download a separate software on a PC then update firmware through there cuz if you don’t, it won’t allow you to use the Xbox app! This is after a year of use, and while hardware is ok, I’ve grown more tired with this company as it’s a controller with inconveniences that start to pile up which is no excuse at this price range. Save your money.

I recently picked up the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro Wireless Gaming Controller and it’s been a solid upgrade for my setup—responsive buttons, smooth wireless connection, and the customizable RGB lighting adds a nice touch of personality. The ergonomics feel great in hand, with textured grips that make longer sessions more comfortable, and the build quality feels premium compared to standard controllers. Everything works seamlessly across my games, and overall it delivers both performance and style, making it a reliable choice for anyone who wants a pro-level controller experience

Great controller if you are looking for a wireless Xbox controller woth hall effect sticks and mouse click buttons. The only 2 issues keeping it from 5☆'s are rare connectivity issues where the controller just disconnects from the USB receiver or the controller will turn on but the xbox will not(its probably just interference from other devices rather than a product issue). The battery life could stand to be a little better, I have to charge it every few days, which isn't terrible but worse than other wireless controllers.

Its a really nice controller. It fit really well and all additional button are amazing. All clicky like mouse and ultra reactif

Tudo certo até o momento, abri a caixa filmando caso tivessem enviado um tijolo ou sado de areia, vai demorar um pouco para acostumar ele devido a pegado um pouco diferente do Elite 2

Great controller overall. Great buttons, great functionality. The shape is okay for medium to big hands. Precise sticks and triggers. Battery life is also pretty good, and you can charge and use it simultaneously. The recent firmware update brought recalibration, on-the-fly profile switching, and software hair triggers. I bought it for Xbox and it has been great for that purpose. The only real issue is the fact that it doesn't have Bluetooth/MacOS connectivity. That would probably make it the best Xbox controller on the market right now.

Un control muy bueno, es mecánico y con efecto hall, funciona perfecto en modo inalambrico. Lo único malo es que se necesita el doglee si o si. Al inicio un botón chillaba al precionarlo, pero observé que dependia de la posición en qué lo presionaba y con el tiempo dejo de chillar. Se puede mejorar, para llegar a ser un excelente control, con un modo inalambrico sin doglee, Bluetooth, mejores materiales exteriores y una opción de cambio de los sticks y botonera, además de poder ajustar la sensibilidad de las palancas. Con eso sería el mejor control de todos. Yo diría que actualmente es de los top 3.

Great
