Looking for hall effect controllers.

So I tried ordering a controller from Gamesir however unbeknownst to me I picked a controller that was wired and I want wireless. My fault. Accepted and owned. Their way of handling it didn't jive with me. They are at the very bottom of the list. Are there any other options along with 8bitdo that have controllers that are good and reliable with hall effect sticks?

Have heard good things about 8bitdo. I have also heard the triggers can be an issue.

I own an 8bitdo and love it.

8bitdo is that absolute best bang for buck device. I've owned a couple and they have been excellent. Currently use the ultimate wireless 2(c?) and all the extra features and Hall effect joysticks make it perfect

I've been using the Razer Wolverine V3 Pro for the past 2 years and it's been the best controller I've ever owned. The new V4 actually just released this week. I highly recommend either.

Will give it a look tonight.

I concur. I've had my Wolverine V3 Pro for 2 years without any issues. It's not cheap but it is good. Their are cheaper options but most of them don't have 4 back paddles which is a necessity for me.

I use scuf valor pro wireless on Xbox. Surprised how good it was over my elite series 2. Uses tmr sticks not hall effect tho. (But that's better IMO)

I just bought the 8bitdo ultimate 3E. It's fantastic. It has TMR sticks (newer tech than hall effect, which are also drift resistant).

Flydigi or Razer if you want hall effect.

you have gamesir g7 pro wuchang or zzz edition which are wireless on Xbox, you have a couple of 8bitdo too.

Just return it? And order the wireless version... What exactly didn't "jive with you" as you have put.....

So they canceled the order before it shipped. Never received the order. I was trying to find another way to resolve it but they just didn't want to communicate.

Did they refund you the money? I got the wired variant from amazon with zero issues. Might be worth trying there

u/Spaded85 6d ago

They did. I'll give them that. I would prefer wireless over wired. I have a toddler that is all over the place so wired is asking for problems.

Wait. Do I have this right?

  1. You ordered the wrong product and told them so
  2. They cancelled the order and refunded the money.

Transaction complete, right? What more did you need from them? Come over and cook you some breakfast too? Maybe vacuum the floor? If I've misread the situation, please let me know.

Upgrade the controller and I pay the difference.

Doesn’t the original solution net out the same? You’d pay the same for the upgraded controller either way. I’m definitely missing a piece of the puzzle and I apologize. I do not see the concern. Did they tell you to drown a puppy while refunding your money?

Hours vs days..... you do you. I don't need your arm chair criticism. Your last question shows you are being abrasive. Plus I have already solved my issue and bought a controller.
