our coverage of PAX Prime 2015 is powered by hyperx check out their Cloud

00:00:04.359 --> 00:00:11.080
2 headset in the link in the description down below also thank you to ASUS and

00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:16.000
Corsair we're checking out at Razer today is the Razer Wildcat this is

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:20.039
razer's first Fay into Xbox One styled controllers and this controller is

00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:24.480
compatible with Xbox One and PCs running Windows 7 and above the last controller

00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:29.240
they released was the Razer Sabertooth that was an Xbox 360 sty controller and

00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:32.800
this one kind of grows on that uh it's just improved in a few different ways

00:00:30.840 --> 00:00:35.680
that I actually really like the main change that I like is that on the back

00:00:34.480 --> 00:00:40.239
of the controller where on the Sabertooth we saw a rocker switch two

00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:43.760
rocker switches we now see two actual triggers these triggers are a lot more

00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:48.520
solid what I didn't like about the sabertooths were that they kind of would

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:52.000
slide back and forth and over time they kind of got a little bit weaker these

00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:55.840
triggers feel a lot more solid and they're also easier to remove just like

00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:59.359
the last one it's a hex screw that removes them but unlike the last one

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:03.879
instead of having rubber plugs to stop her off the area you just drop the

00:01:01.559 --> 00:01:08.799
little plug-in cartridge thing down into the controller and it looks very natural

00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:11.560
and they're also much smaller which is actually kind of cool you won't have

00:01:10.320 --> 00:01:15.280
your fingers get caught on them more easily and even if you're not using them

00:01:13.320 --> 00:01:18.360
they feel much more natural just like the saber-tooth you have your stock

00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:22.280
normal shoulder buttons and your additional hyper response but buttons

00:01:20.280 --> 00:01:26.520
from Razer what I like this time around though is on the Sabertooth you could

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:31.000
feel them actuate but this time you can feel and hear them actuate so much like

00:01:28.720 --> 00:01:35.720
the mechanical ABX y buttons you can actually hear them moving on from there

00:01:32.720 --> 00:01:37.600
you have a 3M or 10t long braided USB

00:01:35.720 --> 00:01:42.040
cable which they got rid of the screw connector for the screw connector was

00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:47.000
kind of cool but caused some issues so now they've gone for more just general

00:01:43.880 --> 00:01:48.399
compliance with a micro USB plug it has

00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:51.920
rails on the side of it so you're not going to plug it in incorrectly and like

00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:55.240
I said it's long and braided so that's actually pretty cool just like the

00:01:53.360 --> 00:01:59.880
saber-tooth you have the same analog stick grip caps that we had before but

00:01:57.600 --> 00:02:03.640
now there's also Palm grips optional Palm grips we unfortunately don't have

00:02:01.600 --> 00:02:07.320
them here today so you might just see a still image of them or something but it

00:02:05.520 --> 00:02:10.479
actually looks pretty cool the triggers have received an upgrade now on the

00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:15.200
bottom of the controller there's two sliding switches one for each one of the

00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:19.000
triggers and it's a trigger stop so basically if you don't have the trigger

00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:22.879
stop engaged you can pull all the way down and it's a smooth longdistance pull

00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:26.760
so you can be more careful about your shooting or with the trigger stop

00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:29.760
engaged it's a short pull and you can get more rapid fire shooting depending

00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:32.959
on what mood you're kind of in what kind of game you're playing that may or may

00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:36.680
not be good for you and with a fast toggle like that doesn't really matter

00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:40.800
then there's the four button control panel on the bottom button one is a

00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:43.760
remapping button so you can press and hold this and then press the button that

00:02:42.200 --> 00:02:47.400
you want to remap so like one of the hyper response buttons for the shoulder

00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:51.800
buttons or one of the Triggers on the back and you can bind that to another

00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:55.599
button on the controller the one beside that is a profile switch there's three

00:02:53.640 --> 00:02:59.440
different profiles the first one is the default profile that has none of the

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:01.800
custom razor buttons bound to anything so if you it's like the first time

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:05.720
you're trying a game and you don't want to accidentally press a button that you don't know what it's going to do you can

00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:09.519
go back to the default profile and then figure things out later on the second

00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:13.680
two profiles are set as whatever you really want them to be so you can have

00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:18.200
the trigger on the back as a or whatever you want to bind things to those go on

00:03:15.480 --> 00:03:23.799
the second two profiles the third button is a mic mute and the fourth button is a

00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:28.560
game chat balance and volume switch so one press increases the maximum volume

00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:32.439
by about 20% a press and hold and then pressing the left and right buttons on

00:03:29.920 --> 00:03:36.120
the d-pad moves the chat balance in your headphones or speakers and then a press

00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:40.959
and hold and then up and down on the d-pad increases or lowers respectively

00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:44.879
the master volume also in that controller box there's a input headphone

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:48.599
jack for your headset and one interesting thing about this compared to

00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:52.840
the elite controller that I was told is that the elite controller is actually

00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:59.400
kind of heavy the stock Xbox One controller weighs 262 G the elite

00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:02.959
controller weighs 384 G and the Wildcat

00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:04.319
weighs less than both of them at 260 g

00:04:02.959 --> 00:04:08.439
I'm not necessarily sure if this is something you personally as the viewer

00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:12.239
is going to care about but if you do get uh weary and tired of heavy controllers

00:04:10.799 --> 00:04:15.320
something to take note of it's actually very light and has additional features

00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:18.880
over the stock controller now to be fair I haven't had

00:04:17.359 --> 00:04:22.560
a ton of time with it but one thing that I do have to say is I have experienced

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:27.199
with the Anza and the saber-tooth fairly extensively this feels a lot more like

00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:30.320
the Sabertooth which is good I tried the Anza back in the day and it was a cool

00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:33.759
controller but I did have some gripes with it and honestly overall I really

00:04:32.320 --> 00:04:37.400
liked the saber-tooth there was a few things that I wasn't 100% keen on but

00:04:35.919 --> 00:04:41.440
that's probably true about every single product that I've ever used and this one

00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:45.880
improved the things that I wasn't super keen on and moved on from there so

00:04:43.960 --> 00:04:48.440
pretty cool actually all right guys thanks for watching and thanks for
