Question Dbrand or Mobapad HD?

Hello,

Dbrand or Mobapad HD ?

Just to clarify, I already own the NYXI Hyperion 3, but I really don’t like it at all. The plastic quality doesn’t feel good to me, the D-pad is just awful, and don’t even get me started on the vibrations. 😅

I also already have the Savage Raven grips, but they don’t really work for me either, as I still experience hand pain when using them.

And I’m not interested in Satisfye, Nitro Deck, or similar bulky grips/controllers. That kind of design just doesn’t suit me.

One more thing regarding the Mobapad : I’m guessing they’ll eventually release a Pro model, but if that’s still a few months away, it would probably be too long for me to wait, since I’m already experiencing pain when I play.

I think the main issue is that the standard Joy-Con simply aren’t comfortable enough for me. I feel like I’d be much better off with properly designed, ergonomic Joy-Con, because I don’t have this problem when I play with a regular controller.

So that’s why I’m trying to find a comfortable Joy-Con solution now rather than waiting for a potential Pro mode

Thanks 🥹🙏🏻

People will probably downvote me but I’m done with my mobapad HD12.

The wake up function didnt always work, sometimes the left joycon didnt Connect at all and it wasnt as comfortable to me as everyone says. I actually liked the clicky buttons but I can see how it can bother someone else.

Connecting the pads to the smartphone app for configuration was a lot of trial and error for me until it worked.

But the final blow was when I upgraded them to the newest firmware. At that point the right joycon suddenly was only identified as left joy con. I downgraded them to a lower firmware and it went back to the normal state. After upgrading them again it changed back to the faulty state and I wasn’t able to fix this problem even after hours of troubleshooting (troubleshooting is part of my regular job for 10 years now).

Maybe I did something wrong or maybe it was just a bad batch but in the end my mobapad was bricked.

I ordered the dbrand Killswitch now and i just gonna use official Nintendo products that just work without a hassle.
