EasySMX X20 Review! Premium Features at a Budget Price!

[@OldManRob13]

So the amazon price/sale changed sometime in the last like 6 hours...but our discount code still stacks, and I'm pretty sure its actually even cheaper now...

[@blorbb5398]

Could you please review the 8Bitdo SN30Pro Hall Effect version, the most recent one? Thanks.

[@BouncingBallGames]

Great review as always. Thanks for the shout out about the back paddles. I’ve picked up one of these, it arrives in a a week. I’ll have a go at making some paddles for it.

[@OldManRob13]

@@BouncingBallGames awesome, thank you!!!

[@straightouttacompton873]

Trigger stops and an adjustable height thumb stick??? Back buttons!!! Not gonna lie I’m impressed.

[@OldManRob13]

@@straightouttacompton873 yeah, I really am too for the price.

[@Home-Grown]

I received this controller yesterday, ordered it from the Easysmx website and waited roughly 10 day's for delivery (I'm from the UK). I also have the X10 which is a great controller so when i saw the X20 i hoped it was the X10 on steroids and boy oh boy. The X20 is absolutely badass 😎

[@goobatroopa_]

Nice used the code came out to like $28. I really like the X10 for the light trigger tension and buttons. I love the Flydigi back button layout. With both of those considerations I'm excited to try this out.

[@OldManRob13]

@@goobatroopa_ I’m happy that someone, anyone, got to use the code! First time I’ve had anything like that to give back to my audience! I said it in the video, but it’s just hard to imagine a better deal at that price. $28 is like what you spend on a generic Switch controller at Walmart or something, but this is a full fledged pro controller with lots of bells and whistles.

[@goobatroopa_]

@@OldManRob13 Totally agree with you. I have a cheap beater BinBok generic switch controller that's $20. While the ergonomics are good the rest is very cheap. I'll hand that to any dorito finger lickers during couch coop lol. For $8 - $10 more to get the x20 with so many premium features is wild. I was also able to snag the Direwolf 2 and Easysmx x10 for $30ish each. It will be nice to be able to hand my friends actually nice controllers when they come over without having had to pay nearly twice the amount.

Wow the rbg is nice

[@zerorequiem42]

Not a bad price. $10 cheaper than the gamesir g7 se for $38 I have waiting to be picked up at best buy. Should I get this instead?

[@straightouttacompton873]

I love my SE but this has lot of features….having not used it personally I can’t say myself. Just wanted to express my SE love hahah

[@OldManRob13]

@@zerorequiem42 I’m reluctant to say its BETTER than the SE, just because I’ve put hundreds of hours into that controller and have had no issues, so I just don’t know if the EasySMX will be as durable…but if I were hopping on to play right now, with both controllers sitting in front of me…I’m picking up the X20, cause it does more of the things I want - mechanical face buttons and trigger stops, and 4 rear buttons.

[@zerorequiem42]

@@straightouttacompton873 Thanks, that does help

[@zerorequiem42]

@@OldManRob13 Yeah, longevity is important. I think I will try both first and then decide. Returning the one that is worse to me. If those mechanical buttons feel as amazing as they seem, I'll probably go with the easy smx.

[@zerorequiem42]

@@OldManRob13 So I got in the easySMX and it feels pretty good so far. I did not get a wireless dongle in the box tho, just an empty spot.

[@dertodyami]

If it had a PC software to customize the controller's setting, it would be perfect.

[@OldManRob13]

@@dertodyami yeah, kinda odd that it doesn’t, considering how much customization you can do. I’m glad there’s a manual recalibration option though. I didn’t need to use it, but I’ve had plenty of controllers in the past that I felt were kinda ruined by the lack of that option.

[@LucasNz_]

Does the gyro work on Nintendo Switch mode on Steam?

[@OldManRob13]

@@LucasNz_ it’s supposed to, but I haven’t tested it, sorry.

[@stevensv4864]

this vs gamesir quality and performance aim sticks etc?

[@OldManRob13]

@@stevensv4864 The hall sticks feel very good - responsive and consistent. I’m still a little on the fence as to whether they feel as good as GameSir’s, but that might be due to a lot more time played on GameSir controllers. It’s hard to compare overall quality because I’ve only had this controller for a little over a week, whereas I have hundreds of hours in my GameSir SE, and still no issues with it. If I’m sitting down to play right this moment, I’m picking the X20 due to so many advantages in terms of features, but long term it’s just hard to know if it will stack up to a GameSir, just in terms of durability.

[@stevensv4864]

@@OldManRob13 hey nice and tmr sticks feel the best overall ?

[@OldManRob13]

@@stevensv4864 Hey man -not sure if you're referring to this review or not, but the X20 doesn't have TMR sticks, just standard Hall Effect. The only controller I've tested with TMR sticks is the GameSir Tarantula Pro, and they feel great, but I think it probably depends on the controller. Tarantula Pro with TMR feels about on par with the Vader 4 Pro to me, which does not have TMR sticks...so hard to say if TMR overall is as good/better than Hall Effect sticks, probably won't know until I'm able to try a few more.

[@stevensv4864]

@@OldManRob13 i was refering this VS t3pro.. man then TMR sticks feel same and not an upgrade? Bigbig won Blitz 2 Will hace TMR and they advertirse like hall effect 2.0

[@OldManRob13]

@@stevensv4864 Oh gotcha, sorry. I do think the T3 sticks feel better than my other GameSir's, just not better than the Vader 4. My Blitz 2 is allegedly on the way, so will have a review of that ASAP. Also supposedly 2000hz wired and wireless, so can't wait to test that out!

First

[@craftedtunesentertainment5569]

I ordered this sh!t for $50 bucks and it still won't get to me for a week. I feel almost ripped off lol. Tempted to return and reorder from Amazon. How petty is that? 🫤

[@OldManRob13]

Ha, I understand the temptation! I ordered mine directly from EasySMS, prior to the US launch, so I paid full price myself! It’s still a good deal at $50, but it’s always nice to get a better deal!
