PDP Wired Controller for Xbox One - Black

Product Information

This will also ensure that the latest version of the firmware will be installed on the controller and you will also get the option to run diagnostics. The only complaints I have about this controller range from the fact that the buttons are pained on rather than encased in plastic. Oddly enough, the Xbox Home button is actually encased in plastic which only makes me wonder why they couldn’t have given the face buttons (You know, the buttons the player is most likely to be using rather than the Home Button) the same treatment. There is no programming of the PDP remote. You slap into two AAA batteries (not included) and point it at an Xbox for instant access. Using the now more prominent Xbox button, you can access the menu, simulate the XYAB buttons, control volume, and navigate the Xbox UI using the D-pad. The PDP Xbox controllers can work on a Windows PC. If the controller does not work immediately upon connecting to a PC, then you may need to update the official Microsoft drivers in your PC through Windows Update. The controllers work plug 'n' play with Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, with the latest updates installed. I must say that the PDP Xbox One Controller also looks like the real deal. While it may look the part, however, the PDP Controller actually feels lighter than the original as well. It might be a little bit inconvenient for players who don’t like light controllers but I don’t really see an issue with it.

Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you. Under a bright magnified light, I saw that the little piece of plastic was the support to hold another very small piece of plastic arm, which pressed the button. Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame.

PDP's new $20 media remote for the Xbox One and new Series X|S cuts some buttons but seems overall improved.

I should also mention that I loved the Aesthetic of the Controller itself. Never have I ever seen a controller with such an elegant skin like Matte Midnight Blue and the design of the controller itself is pretty comfortable for my hands. To adjust the game/chat audio balance, hold the audio function button while pressing the D-Pad LEFT or RIGHT. BUGGY Controller! The HUB is glitchy and PDP Support knows this! These PDP controllers are designed to go buggy after some time; no wonder why there is a Controller HUB to attempt to fix the BUGGY CONTROLLER. Third Party Controllers aren’t exactly a popular hot topic to talk about. For very good reason too,I as they seem like a 50/50 situation where you could either get something amazing or something extremely bad. I felt the same way when I got to review the Performance Design Products (PDP) Xbox One Controller.

The USB Cable is sturdy and stays connected to the Controller itself, so it allows for some rough pulling and it won’t come out or have a flimsy connection like other USB Type-C Cables I know. Which is also a huge plus for this controller because that means I won’t really have any situation where my controller accidentally disconnects while I was pulling it or something along those lines.The Midnight Blue PDP Gaming Wired Controller works on Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Windows 10 and is an officially licensed product. The feature that’s most advertised in the PDP Xbox One Controller has to be the fact that you are allowed to control the Volume of the audio in the headset at any time. This is done by pressing and holding the button on the lower right side of the controller.
