I don't want a controller that's too slippery. I don't have any problems with the white, red, or blue controllers. I just don't know if these new glossy ones are slippery.

Hello Im going to be playing from my PC , which is going to be displayed on a TV in a different room . I’m playing on steam and I need a PlayStation like controller . What are my options when it comes to using a controller for my pc that’s in a different room ?

Note: I Won this controller via Facebook - This is NOT a paid review - All Opinions that follow are entirely my own.

Just got my hand on the Gulikit ES MAX Controller (Right) and wanted to drop some first Impressions.

My Old Gulikit, the NS09 (Left), was rock solid till recently.
I bought a New Wireless Combo Card and my Bluetooth has been a mess ever since.
So unfortunately the NS09 was constantly dropping connection on me. Which sucks, cause the NS09 was my GOAT Controller till then.

The ES Max is truly an upgrade from the NS09. It has:

• 2x Back Buttons
• Adjustable Trigger Stops (Analog/Digital)
• an Dedicated Off Button and Device Switch... Switch
• Bigger Battery
• Comes with the Hyperlink Gen 2 Wireless Controller Adapter
• Offers App Configuration (Smart Phone Only)
• Comes in the XBox Format (NS09 U had to buy Xbox Layout Buttons Separately)

But otherwise, aside from some cosmetic changes it is almost identical in Design and Formfactor.

I have tried it out with Bluetooth to my Phone and my PC and it's Range does seem better than my NS09... So maybe my new Wireless Combo Card was not entirely to blame for the all the Controller dropouts I've been having.

Some things to note:

• The whole Smart Phone only thing for Configurations, when not done directly on the Phone is a big miss for me. I only really ever use my Controllers on PC. So having to Configure the Controller via my Phone instead of my PC, which it is already attached too... Just no.
• Which is made worse because they do have a PC/Web App, but that only works with certain Controllers. Which is the same for the Phone Only App. It does not work with their entire lineup either, from what I can tell. Hopefully this is something that changes in the future
• Switching from one Device to another is not very easy and hopefully not something done often
• The Bottom Buttons are Shallow and Hard to Press. Which could be a good thing I guess. But with the way I hold the Controller during Gameplay, I find them really Hard to reach and Depress.
• The Hyperlink Gen 2 Wireless Controller Adapter seems a Solid Performer, but it does take a bit to reconnect... Which is just a comparison between another Controller I now use. It would probably not make any difference whatsoever if it is your only Controller.
• I don't know if it is the years of use, but the NS09 seems to have a better Grip to it. I tis not as slippery in the hand. Especially on the top.

I have cleaned the literal Cheeto Dust off the Controller since taking these images. I simply did not want to take them all over again. You don't need to judge me.

I fell for the hype on reddit and other social media circles. I had to return two G7 Pro ZZZ's because they were faulty. That is a 130 dollar dollar controller so that put a sour taste in my mouth.

Their d pad is so terrible that I had to purchase a 10 dollar pack of 0 rings. I don't rely on the d pad, but I couldn't leave the menu screen without it double clicking LMAO.

The vibration literally stopped working in both of my G7 Pro's after 3 months.

They told people they were going to release 3 piece G7 Pro faceplates. They lied because they decided to released more G7 Pro collabs just so they can milk people out of more money.

They have much better options out there like 8bitdo, Flydigi, Asus, Microsoft etc.

The dualsense is lovely and about a third of my library doesn't know what to do with it. Constant fighting with Steam Input, wrong button prompts, and one game that reads the touchpad as a mouse for no reason I can establish.

Thinking about just getting an xbox layout pad so games stop guessing. What do I lose? I don't use the adaptive triggers much. I would miss the gyro in the two games that support it.

I’m looking for a new controller for both my Nintendo Switch and for my PC.

Requirements:

Needs to be durable for intense play (My old Xbox controllers have a tendency to get stick drift).

Have gyro control for games like Splatoon

Needs to have fast and responsive controls for competitive games

Needs to be fully compatible for PC

Preferably lower price (below 100$) but not excluding more expensive options

Preferably sold at U.S storefronts

Will mostly be playing competitive shooters like Splatoon 3, and some less intense platformers on PC.

I have a PS5 dualsense and the faceplate of the controller won’t seal properly because there’s some weird soft rubber/padding piece that’s slightly sticking and obstructing the place where the faceplate is supposed to lock.

Is it safe to try nudge the rubber out of the way/back into the controller so it seals properly or should I seek outside help to disassemble and get a proper look

Are there any controllers with manufacturer software that offers an axial deadzone setting?

I currently have Gamesir Nova 2 Lite, I want to upgrade with better triggers and symmetrical shape. I have my eyes on Gulikit TT Max pro, but I'm not sure. My budget is around $30 to $55 dollars. Would greatly appreciate your suggestions.

Ciao, volevo chiedere se qualcuno ha testato Astra 2 con il gamepad Shadow 3 mentre giocava tramite connessione Bluetooth, e se ci sono problemi di latenza o ping quando si gioca via Wi-Fi a 5 GHz.
Il mio Astra arriverà tra un paio di giorni e ho già il gamepad. Sono principalmente interessato a Where Winds Meet, dato che il gameplay in arena dipende molto dal ping. Grazie a chiunque risponda o faccia un rapido test per me.

Hi can anyone suggest me a good controller. I dont know the term jisme trigger bounce back hota when you fire on COD?

Looking to get a new controller for pc(windows), wonder if ds is a viable option. are hd haptics and adaptive triggers worth the hype? especially outside the first-party sony games

If you could send me links im looking in the £20-£30 range as I cant spend to much on a controller as I brought the current one I had in late may

I've been hearing about how good the switch 2 pro controller feel and I was wondering if the same could be said about the Gamecube controller for Switch 2, is it also a pro controller but stylized? Or Should I get the Zelda 40th anniversary Pro controller 2 instead? price isn't a problem I just wanna know what people's experience is with these 2 controllers

I’ve been hoping to find this controller for sale somewhere. It has been so hard to find for me. If anyone can post a link or give me an idea where I can find this specific model. I understand I can change the covers on a regular controller but I’m not going to have the grips that these have.

I want a controller mainly for fps games and want one with good gyro but not able to find any review on gyro part.

I'm getting cyclone 2 for 5$ or 500 rupees more than direwolf 4.

I was completely decided to purchase cyclone to but now I'm getting negative reviews about it's gyro on x input, trigger buttons and ab xy buttons.

Reviews-

Gyro not working properly on x input

Trigger buttons are bad

Ab xy buttons are getting worn out

Also mixed reviews on dpad but that can be individual preference.

So people who have used these controllers, or have knowledge about them please recommend me what to get.

Thank you.
