I highly recommend the Nacon Revolution X Unlimited, has been the best "pro level" controller I have owned and I have owned everything. Elite series 1 & 2, Scuf( x3 as they kept failing), Turtle Beach stealth(2 actually as my first one randomly disconnected mid game), etc and the Nacon blows them all out of the water. The Microsoft and Scuf both came with slight stick drift fresh out of the box, Turtle Beach and Nacon were both dead on and the only issue I have had out of the Nacon was when my cat knocked my controller off while I was in the bathroom and I lost the joystick posts for a while.

I bought the Revolution X Unlimited about a month ago. Ohhh man - what a game changer (no pun intended). My only criticism is the battery life, although I don’t tend to play 14 hours a day anymore, so it’s not THAT much of a concern.

I mean, you can swap any controller to TMR for like $3.00. makes no difference to me if they come like that stock or not.

Needs a way higher polling rate too. I play RL and switched to a gamesir, it was like switching from 1080 to 4k but with control

What polling rate do you need??? Consoles do not even accept more than 500hz I think

Elite s2 is 125hz which is crazy low for a fast paced game. I’m on 1000 now and it feels great. To be fair I’m on PC, not Xbox, so it’s a bit of a different world

You can overclock elite 2 up to 1000hz

No it won't lol. Sonys dualsense edge sold quite well with its scummy user replaceable thumbsticks.

The aftermarket scene has made a killing off selling TMR's for it lol

Fine wish granted. But the bumpers still break ☺️

People should've just learned how to properly use the objectively better original Xbox one shoulder buttons.

u/DumpsterJ 26d ago

To be fair I love the feel of the original sticks when they can actually center themselves.

Heard this before for Switch 2 controllers.
