About this deal

The controller does not come with a Bluetooth function. However, it works with PCs (Windows 10 and above) that have a free USB port. PDP (all the Xbox controller variants) is another suggested budget controller. I have no direct experience with it, but from the info I could get their situation is similar to PowerA. Custom high-tier controllers In most cases, the issues start after 3-6 months as it seems like these controllers were not made for long-term usage. The controller has an integrated battery, which is a nice addition, but I am afraid that it will start lasting fewer hours over time as it can’t be changed. Plug the micro-USB connector into your controller. Your Razer came with a cord, but if you lost it, you can easily find USB cables with a micro-USB connector at any retail and electronics store.

The face buttons have a reduced actuation distance of 0.65mm, which is 35% less than that of the average membrane controller. This results in an actuation time of approximately10ms. Overall, I have no significant complaints about the design of the Razer Wolverine Ultimate. It borrows heavily from the Xbox Elite controller but also improves upon it in some areas like the rear triggers (instead of paddles) that do not fall off, configurable vibration, and abilities to tweak performance via the Razer Synapse app for the Xbox One. Razer Synapse for the console The Razer Wolverine V2 has rounded bumper grips while the other two controllers are slightly sharper (though still blunt enough to be comfortable for your palm). The Razer Wolverine V2 has 2 remappable multi-function buttons, while the TE has 4 multi-function buttons, and the Ultimate has 4 multi-function triggers.Depending on the model of the Razer controller you have, the switch might be located somewhere else. You'll need to refer to the Razer's instruction manual for more details.

Yes, you can use the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma on PC. To get started, simply connect the controller to your PC via the included USB-C to USB-A cable. The controller's drivers will be automatically installed and you’re ready to go. Putting aside cable issues I often preferred the Razer Wolverine Ultimate to the Xbox Elite if only for some of the minor improvements like a lighter feel and those extra buttons. Whether the Wolverine Ultimate is worth it for you comes down to your wallet, needs, and expectations, but overall Razer has created a fine – and in some ways better – alternative to Microsoft's high-end Xbox controller and that's not bad at all. Note: this controller is very similar to the Razer Wolverine Ultimate Edition, so I will often compare them. That said, considering all the controllers have issues nowadays, the Thrustmaster ESWAP X PRO looks like a potential choice because of its solid build, so I suggest giving it a try if you are looking for something different from the usual.The main difference between the Wolverine Ultimate and Tournament Edition’s ABXY buttons is that the former has very light buttons while the latter has harder ones. Honestly, it depends on your preference, but I am mostly a fan of the TE. Weighing in at 260 grams (0.57lbs) the Wolverine is significantly lighter than the Xbox Elite controller with batteries (348 grams or 0.77lbs). While heavier weight is often associated with a more premium feel, I'd argue that a lighter controller after a few hours is easier to use. No, the Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma does not support wireless connectivity. It can only be connected to devices using a wired USB connection. My only minor issue with the Wolverine is that I found things can easily become confusing when using any more than four to five profiles. This is because the custom RGB lighting Razer bangs on about applies only to a front strip. Unlike gaming keyboards, you can’t map it to specific keys.

Razer provides two swappable D-pads, however, they are both average. The Tournament Edition has a way better one. The Wolverine can be programmed in part using its physical controls, but to get the most out of it you’ll have to use Razer’s Synapse software. Synapse is available on PC and Xbox One, and offers a pretty much identical set of features on both platforms – although the PC version has a slightly more intuitive UI.Make no mistake, when it comes to performance the Razer Wolverine is the mechanical keyboard of game controllers, and perfect for serious console and PC gamers. You’ll just have to pay through the nose for the privilege of owning it.
