Do you like playing with wired or wireless controllers?


Recommended Posts

Ever since wireless console controllers came into existence, I have played at least 90% of my games with them. It's so easy to play with them because the restrictions we had with weird controllers was completely eliminated. I just kept my wired controllers as a back up in case my wireless controllers died on me or I failed to have it charged. 

Which one do you like to play with now?

Since around 2020, I had to use a third-party wired controller myself as the official controller I got with my Xbox One X the year before unfortunately got stick drift and became unuseable. I use third-party controllers that were wired for around 2 years before last October I was able to finally purchase myself an official controller again and now I am back to wireless which I much prefer. 

The different between wired and wireless is amazing and I will always choose wireless when I can.

I have my controller plugged into my PC all the time which is a PS4 controller. I have a battery one for my Series S when I use the console to play games or watch streaming.

I played with a wired controller on my PC when I started playing video games on PC newly. It was very difficult adapting to playing with keyboard and mouse, so I used the controller for a while.

I actually prefer wired controllers most of the time, but the Xbox controller is my preferred setup and they only come wireless.  I keep saying that I will grab a Razer Wolverine or something along those lines for a wired choice, but they cost a bit much.

Is it that you wouldn't have to worry about charging the wired controllers that makes you love using them more often? It's the only reason why brother goes with wired controllers too.

I use wireless PS5/xbox elite (for pc) controllers, wireless keyboard and mouse on PC. It lets me have no wires dragging around my desk like getting tangled up with my streamdeck or mic arm.

Are theses rechargeable or do you find you have to use normal batteries and change them out? How long does the charge tend to last in your wireless devices?

I will admit, I would love to go completely wireless but at the moment, only my Xbox One controller is wireless.

What's the colour of your PlayStation 5 controller? Is it usual black or you managed to get something different?
