Maybe the sales revenue from these neat designs will fund the development of their future hall sensor controllers 🤞

Is it normal for the d pad to be so clicky? My xbox one controllers are quiet.

I'm guessing the sales revenue of people still buying the same old controller but in a shiny new colour is having an opposite effect.

Having said that, I did just read an article stating the one you're referring to could be announced next month. Until then, I've been really enjoying this 8bitdo Ultimate.

Sadly yes. The new version that's coming out soon use better joysticks, quieter buttons, and are higher quality. That's why these are always on sale now.

you talking about the sebille or whatever the new controller was code named in that leak?

AFAIK Sebille did not have hall sensors. It had a lot of improvements to put it more in line with Dual Sense features (had a dedicated button to switch between BT/Wifi/Cloud was just one minor feature I remember, and supports direct cloud connection for cloud games) but not hall sensors. but you can 100% be sure it will also MSRP at $70 like dual sense. These old controllers I usually get for 30-35 on sale. Also, the leak showed sebille was just an idea, not funded at that time, and may not happen at all (although I cant imagine it not frankly)

for whatever reason afaik none of the big 3 nintendo/sony/ms have embraced hall sticks yet. not sure why or if they will eventually.

only had drift like one time a long time ago in 50 controllers. i've found these controllers last forever. i had more trouble with a spell of rattly rumble motors at one point. something else will wear out before your stick drifts. thats why i'm not that excited for hall sticks tbh even though sure better than not. a lot of user error on sd. meat hands.

How do I get access to this right away? They usually make me wait 1-2 years for this free content.

Sweet looking controller. On a side note the red controller is on sale pretty much everywhere for 44.99. I have it and it's a really nice controller. Gonna get another at that price with MS rewards points

Costs just a few dollars to replace the potentiometer on the drifting joystick if you are even a little good at DIY.

Remember that not all hall sensors are better than a potentiometer sensor. There's plenty of trash, very inaccurate and high error rate half effect sensors in controllers that have very high input lag.

In my opinion, the best controller is the one with the most aftermarket support and the one with the most readily available parts. You can very easily find parts for the official Xbox controller online which makes repair a breeze.

If anyone knows any other controllers with readily available parts and easy repairability, please let me know.

Lucky, I've never had a controller last more than a year tops. The trigger button stop working or I get slight drifting.

Grabbed one at Target last week for $44.99-5% redcard.
I like it as well.
Got refunded for the $39 Red Camo one from Walmart 1.5 years ago with $2 Protection Plan. Left trigger loose not working properly.
