was interested, until i read wireless (heavy, if i play, i play for hours), rgb crap, and the fact its using icue. make a wired non rgb for 50$ less and im willing to switch...

What is wrong with these controller manufacturers? All this bling and still not deploying hall effect sticks? I refuse to purchase these expensive controllers like I have in the past just so 5 days later I can experience stick drift. Even if they fix it it will always come back. That's the nature of physical mechanical sticks. They just can't stay accurate. And now there is this wonderful technology that uses magnets that are being used in all sorts of cheap gamepads ($49 and even lower) out of Asia that work incredibly well but Corsair/Scuff, Thrustmaster, Microsoft, Sony and Razor expect us to pay sometimes upwards of $200+ without hall effect sticks? Granted, the material and the way they feel are great - way nicer than a $49 gamepad out of China - BUT not worth it just so I have to go through the eventual stick drift issues. No way. I play better and make less mistakes when my controller always centers without question. So despite owning a Scuff Impact Pro and a Thrustmaster EswapX - this new Scuff is a hard pass and I'll stick with this cheap ass GameSir G7 I got off Amazon which feels like crap but performs amazingly well thanks to hall effect sticks.

i was interested till i saw no hall effect sticks 200$ "elite" pad is gona suffer from stuick drift just fast as the overpriced normal ones. PS5 gen is time i ever had gamepads with stick drift and all 3 of the had it with 3 months

No hall effect joystick? You better buy Gulikit Kingkong 3 then = mechanical button + 4 back button + hall effect joystick.

The problem with the Guilikit is that they don't have buttons on the bottom that you can map which is a shame since that would make them perfect.

of course, there may be a very good reason why they don't move to hall effect sticks. These companies want you to keep buying new gamepads on a regular basis.

that was Kingkong 2. The new one, Kingkong 3 have four back buttons, they're on the bottom but everyone calls them back button nowadays.

would buy that if they had verison of gamepad with PS layout, the swapped analog and dpad is no go for me

kingkong 3 with PS layout would be a dream controller for me too.

I actually need a new controller... this looks interesting, but will wait to see what the refresh xbox controller is like, apparently it gets released later this year.

For that price it must have hall effect sticks. Baffling they went whole hog on the price but not the quality. And it needs iCue. Cannot recommend.
