Not supported,
The good:- weight, size, and feel- d pad is amazing- swapping functionality- buttons feel solid and give good feedbackThe bad:- the drivers do not work, at all. I was able to find a work around by installing Xbox controller drivers for it so that I can at least use the thing- the micro USB port is recessed and will only accommodate the cable that comes with the controller, if you lose the cable or the wireless dongle you are completely screwed- the d pad on mine is not registering certain inputs properly. This shouldn’t be an issue because it’s supposed to be replaceable, but they don’t make the replacements anymore.Overall, it feels like an amazing controller, if it was properly supported. Would be 4 stars if the drivers worked, 5 if that and replacement parts were available. Not having replacement parts renders one of the most appealing features completely pointless.I think I’m more disappointed with this guy because it could be the best controller I’ve ever had, but my experience feels like they are trying to unload as many of their broken returns as possible while providing below the bare minimum support they should be. Not having working drivers is exceptionally unacceptable. If I hadn’t found the YouTube video by some random dude explaining the work around, I never would have even been able to connect it. For $170, that’s shameful.The returns process is a pain the butt too.

Best Joystick I’ve ever owned.
Few things:-Firstly, I was nervous about buying a refurbished product(I ALWAYS buy new) but when it arrived I realized the refurbish was done by astro witch is comforting. Buttons are snappy, paint finish is perfect and the all the cords and pieces looked brand new.–The weight and feel of the controller is subperb and while it only has 2 back panell buttons they can be customized to what ever button you prefer.—I’ve read a few of the other reviews and im seeing people have been having some trouuble with stick drift. I Dont rememeber any ps4 controllers lasting me any longer then 6months w/o drifting though, or any other controller for any other system for that matter. BUT the best thing about the c40 is all the parts are modular and can easly be replaced. My right stick lasted perfectlly up to 9 months after the original purchase then I replaced them with evil controllers replacement analogs(picked them up on amazon well)SOOOO Inconclusion buy this controller and pick up replacement stick while your at it because it not a question of IF youll get stick drift with ANY controller its a matter of WHEN.The only reason Im even buying another is becuase my first one ( I bought in 2019) is scrapped and banged up from being dropped and mishandled by my children. It still works though. this is hands down the best controller I’ve ever used.—-Astro from my understanding discontinued this controller a new unit is upwards of 300 dollars, just get it refurbished!

sticks are absolute garbage
Best controller in the world, but the sticks are garbage and will go out on you. I still bought the controller knowing this would happen but its the price you pay for the controller you get. I wont use any other controller. Its worth its headaches. Order replacement modules and youll be good!

i mean.
so yeah. this controller is way better than dualsense edge and xbox series elite, yes youll be having stick drift out of the box BUT you can easily reset it by pressing the button at the back of the controller, after that, no more stick drift. everything in this world is not perfect yes i get it, some of yall dont like it and some of yall like em, i respect that, im using this controller for almost 3 years and never have a complain about it. good for fps games such as cod, apex.

Not worth it
I bought at least 5 of these Astro controllers. EVERY-TIME I buy one it’s a little defective, L3 stick, always slouching, blue tooth SOMETIMES WORK, it’s just best to look into a different scuff controller, don’t waste time or money on this.
Product o button didn’t work and missing one of the screw drivers –
Terrible
I want my money back

The controller started bugging out like an 2 hours in
The controller is a great controller, but the controller was fine for an hour, but after I remap the buttons in the back, an hour later, the controller started bugging out. RB bumper or the right bumper started not reacting when I was clicking I will click it once and it would double click and then click Iit again it wouldn’t wouldn’t do anything. I later started to do my research on the controller and I found a lot of people had this problem and some people would say to try to update the controller and I would update the controller and that would not work either it was I will still have the same problem. Do not buy the controller because you’re going to have some problems sadly but if you don’t have any problems, the controller is really good. You just kinda have to be lucky since you’re getting a refurbished item.
