The Turtle Beach React-R is the latest controller from the gaming accessories brand, newly available in the USA today for $39.99<\/a>. It\u2019s a wired Xbox and PC controller with a detachable USB-C cable, officially licensed by Microsoft, and it mixes some of Turtle Beach\u2019s audio chops from its headsets into an affordable gamepad.<\/p>\n

The React-R is a bit like Turtle Beach stripped down its Recon controller<\/a> and gave it a slightly worse name. For $20 less than the Recon, the React-R offers nice quality face buttons, sticks, triggers, and two programmable rear buttons. Some of those buttons, particularly the shoulders, sound a bit more hollow in their clickiness \u2014 but that wasn\u2019t something that felt especially premium on its pricier counterpart either.<\/p>\n
