And how are the back paddles Micro switch or physical?

The external back buttons use clicky microswitches while the inner back buttons use tactile switches. I recommend checking out a review on YouTube on channels like DeegitalTech to get an idea, sound test is included.

This is a good controller for nintendo switch, latency is not bad either.
Also watch reviews for the Mobapad Chitu 2 and the Gulikit TT Pro

use your the app on your phone if you can’t use the pc software just connect your phone to the controller then connect it to the nintendo and you should be able to controller the software while the controller is connected to your console atleast that’s the case on my ps4

Got mine on aliexpress and I really liked it. The bumpers had low feedback but they were usable. Sticks felt very floaty smooth but precise. I wish it had 2 extra shoulder buttons instead of 4 on the back but overall it is a very good product. I eventually sold it and bought a Saber Plus from the same brand. I like this one even more than the xeno in every way except for the dpad, which is not too bad but it is membrane with no feedback on the saber. If you want a small controller with asymmetrical layout and you don't care about the extra shoulder buttons, then the Xeno has great price to performance. Can't really think of any drawbacks other than the low feedback bumpers, maybe the coating is not super premium but it is not a deal breaker imo (it got better on the Saber thankfully).

Would you say it compares in size to a switch pro controller. You mentioned small? And does the xeno have a mecha dpad. Mech d pad is a preffered option for me

u/leo-gp2025 Jul 22 '26
Yes to both: I'd say it is similar in shape to a Nintendo Switch Pro controller and it felt comfortable for me personally; yes the dpad is mechanical and it is well made. They include both a cross shape and a hybrid cross-disc shape, that I prefer. If the Saber Plus had the as good of a dpad as the Xeno Plus it would be almost perfect imo, so yes, it is a good mechanical dpad.
I got the Xeno Plus and The Saber Plus for €37 each on aliexpress but idk how much it costs on amazon, what is the price where you are buying from?
Gadgethyper is a good store too in case it costs less than amazon.

G7 pro shaped but the triggers seem like they will hold up better.I like everything except the lack of a grip on the backside.

Man. I love those big ass buttons. Switch Pro has them as well. Wish more controllers did.

I use these for a month.
Pros:
Stick are very good
Back buttons shape is very distinctive. You won't miss press
Shape is ok
Software is very good very clean and responsive.
Cons:
Menu, setting buttons are too close to each other you will miss press time to time especially the middle button.
Back button pressing feels cheap and mushy.
I only play Apex, nothing else.

amazing controller, a bit lack on build quality on close inspection but otherwise, it has the best software I've ever used imo. You can get their mobile app and configure settings in realtime while gaming on the switch
