SteelSeries and Simraceway have delivered a high-quality controller that anyone who appreciates racing sims will love. Not only is the Simraceway controller packaged with a robust on-line game, but the SRW-S1’s ability to work with popular games suc...
Very sensitive to movement, Good tactile response from buttons and gear shift paddles, Brake and accelerator are pressure sensitive, Very authentic looking, Very comfortable to hold, Excellent build quality and finish, Adequately weighted (not to heavy or light),
Only fully functional in Simraceway, Free floating design increases fatigue, Steep learning curve, Shift LED's are extremely bright, Not something you could really use for an extended period of time
In this section I am going to write a brief five point summary on the following categories; Performance, Appearance, Construction, Functionality and Value. These views are my own and help me to give the SteelSeries SRW-S1 Steering Wheel a rating out o...

Simple Setup, Very solid design, 15 buttons, Dpad, and four paddles are all customizable, Should work with any PC racing game, Steering Sensitivity knob for convenient ingame changes, Great degree of control in both the wheel and paddles
While the SRW-S1 Steering Wheel is somewhat pricey at $119.99, I think it's well worth it. The smooth precision you get when controlling the direction, speed and breaking of your virtual car can't be matched by traditional game controllers. With all of th...
and FVThe S1 is an amazing wheel that obviously has its faults. The most frustrating part is the best part of the wheel is its compactness, but in order to fix inherent flaw in the design they would have to mount the wheel making it just like every ot...

Abstract: Playing a racing game on your desktop PC is so much more fun when you use an actual steering wheel. Anyone who's played a racing game with a keyboard or gamepad and then an actual steering wheel with gas and brake pedals, can testify to this. Hardware.I...
Good price, Quality materials used, Looks great, Great packaging, Highly configurable,
Time consuming to tweak, Painful to use for long periods
Although the SRW-S1 and Simraceway has a steep learning curve, it works very well once you have become accustomed to it. The motion detection is perfect and there is zero lag. The accelerator and brake paddles work very well however the gear change pa...
Abstract: Steelseries SRW-S1 Gadget or SimulatorSteelseries have moved into a new direction with the SRW-S1 steering wheel. It has no pedals, no desk mount. It's a steering wheel with everything you need and more in one small package. The SRW-S1 has been co-designe...
The Steelseries SRW-S1 steering wheel performed very well in Simraceway, the game it was designed for. It’s a shame the wheel did not appear to work in either Blur or F1 2012 as they are both popular games and games I would have liked to have tested t...

15 buttons, Customisable, Good build quality, Comfortable
No axis, Arms could get tired using it for long periods, No force feedback
The fact that it's not clamped to a desk does make it far more convenient, and the multiple buttons and dials - that can be used for racing games other than Simraceway - are excellent. But we feel that it misses out on being the ultimate gaming steering w...
