The official Xbox Wireless Controller is one of the more comfortable peripherals on the market, but for anyone looking for a solid ergonomic design and some customization flair, take a look at Thrustmaster’s eSwap S controller. The Amazon-exclusive Crystal Orange model is up for grabs for only $35 at Woot (an Amazon-owned retailer).
Amazon itself sold out of this controller a couple months back at around this price, so expect Woot’s deal to sell out, too. The controller initially retailed for $130–yes, this is a fantastic deal.

Virtually every aspect of this controller can be customized, as the eSwap has a modular design that allows for new components to easily be swapped in and out. You can reload it with new analog sticks, the D-pad provides enhanced precision, the mechanical buttons are rated as 64% faster than standard membrane-based buttons, and this controller has extra rear paddle buttons.
Additionally, you can further customize this hardware with a dedicated app, allowing you to dial in your profiles to fit your particular gaming needs. The physical travel of the triggers, along with their overall sensitivity, can be adjusted and the overall lifespan of each component ranges in the millions of activations.
Like other Xbox controllers, the eSwap S is compatible with Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via a USB-C connection. Keep in mind that just like other third-party Xbox controllers, the eSwap S is strictly a wired controller.
