New Controller Release
SteelSeries has launched its new Aeon Pro wireless controller, priced at $259.99. This controller is compatible with both Xbox consoles and PC. The release signifies SteelSeries' entry into the high-end gaming controller market.
Key Features and Design
The Aeon Pro controller incorporates an OLED screen for navigation and settings adjustments, including genre-based presets and rumble sensitivity. More complex configurations, such as stick deadzones and profile creation, require the GG app on PC. The controller also features Hall effect joysticks and triggers, along with mechanical switches for most inputs, providing tactile feedback.
A notable feature is its swappable battery system, which includes two batteries, each offering approximately 12 hours of use. A wireless base station is included for charging the spare battery, which is the same type used in SteelSeries' high-end Arctis Nova Pro, Omni, and Elite headsets. The base station has two USB-C inputs for Xbox and PC, with automatic source swapping.
Additional Hardware Details
The controller includes two-position trigger stops for shorter throws. On the back, there are four non-removable rear paddles, which can be mapped via the controller itself or the GG software on PC. SteelSeries states the paddles are non-removable to prevent wobbling.
