Do you ever find yourself wanting pro controller features when playing games, but don’t want to pay the crazy prices that some PC and Xbox controllers have attached to them? I know I do. That’s the exact scenario that the GameSir Kaleid (and the GameSir Kaleid Flux) For Xbox is trying to solve. They’re packed full of features at a reasonable entry price, but does that lower price mean less quality?
The best Xbox Series X controllers don’t tend to suffer from stick drift as easily as those made by Nintendo and Sony, but when we reviewed the original GameSir T4 Kaleid for PC and Switch, we were big fans of how affordable it made Hall Sensor technology. Now, making its way to Xbox, the Kaleid will bring anti-drift thumbsticks to a market where it’s usually locked behind a higher paywall.
