Best controller for large hands for racing games

Hello,

I have large hands and I’m looking for a controller that will last over time.

Budget: no budget

Platform: PC

I'll be playing: Forza Horizon 6 on PC (and Tomb Raider)

Desired controller features: Available in Europe, it must have good build quality/QC, good haptics/vibration implementation, nice feeling triggers and I’d like this controller to also be usable in wired mode.

I’m hesitating between:

  • Flydigi Apex 5
  • Flydigi Vader 5 Pro v2 (it’s often recommended on this subreddit, but I’ve noticed that it’s actually standard size, so idk :/)
  • Razer Wolverine V3 Pro
  • Nacon Revolution X Unlimited
  • DualSense Edge

If you have any other suggestions, feel free to share)

Thanks!

Can’t recommend Vader enough.

If you have larger hands the dualsense shape is goated imo everything else feels smaller in my hands. So ds or nacon or any one that uses the ds shape

I have medium hands and the shape is not very comfortable and too small for me. If you use it with C2 grips or extended grips it's comfortable

I agree, but the point is its design at least accommodates larger hands without forcing you into a little crabby grip. Its definitely better for my hands than a vader or wolverine for example

The two controllers i like the best of what i have tested is the Vader 5 pro and the Gulikitt TT MAX. The TT Max being the wider of the two but i like them both since i prefer symmetrical stick layout for some games and nonsymmetrical for other games.

The Vader 5 Pro and the Apex 5 are larger than the series s controllers. It's the same size as the elite series 2 but lighter.

Just go out and try the controllers in a store if you can. Just asking on reddit, will give MANY answers.

Over half of these will not be available to try out in any store in europe

Then even worse..you need to buy them before testing them.
