Xbox Elite

[@IDKWHAT2NAMETHISS]

G7 Se

[@Frankieadz]

vader 4 pro

[@n64slayer]

Machenike G6 Pro Starflash by far, no other controller competes with 12 bit joysticks and 2000hz wireless polling rate. The only comparison is the Vader 4 Pro.

[@soultaker0469]

Gamesir g7 se is by far the best!!!!!! I did just get the flydigi 4 pro and waiting on it, it's basically like the g7 se but with 4 back buttons instead of two so I'll see if it's any better. Great video!

[@davidhughes1275]

I've been using the Scuf Instinct Pro Controller for about 15 months now without any issues but I see the Gamesir G7 SE and there new G7 HE are getting very popular becouse of the hall effect sticks and 1000Hz poling rate.

[@harunoderso]

the vader 4 pro can do all that but better as the sticks dont have a recentering spring that could get stick drift (happened to my gamesir g7 se)

[@RevivedGamerHD]

Does the hex controller allow for kontrol freeka? I can't play without them

[@Esidi]

You most likely won’t need them, it comes with 8 sticks (4 of them being extended like KFs). They also have different grip patterns on them and wider ones as well

[@RevivedGamerHD]

@@Esidi i understand, but personally kontrol freeks are needed for me, ive used extended sticks and to me they just arent as big and grippy as a surface no matter what compared to kontrol freeks

[@Upshy]

scuf need to give us a software for the pro instic,better padels,1000hz halleffect sticks and mouse click buttons or mechanics

[@jasoniviejr.7925]

All these are valid, except the Scuf Instinct. Everyone I know with a pro controller on Xbox won’t touch Scuf with a 10 foot pole and used the Elite as Microsoft customer service in repair processes are quicker and easier than the other companies if something were to go wrong. Can’t speak for the PlayStation side, however..

[@Esidi]

Fair, I love my scuf instinct personally. The best feeling controller for my hands

[@DenniTheDude]

I've been trying to look for a controller enthusiast forum for recommendations but I just can't find anything lol. I'm currently using a Turtle Beach Recon controller and I like it decently well but I do really want 4 buttons on the underside instead of 2, so I was considering the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra as it's currently on sale here for $140, which is much cheaper than it has been before. But people online don't seem to love it.

[@strongerthanyoucanimagine]

Threw my flydigi apex 4, punched it and smashed it against the desk whenever I rage in fifa game, it’s still new as fuck and no stick drift is hella huge buying point. I can never go back to other controllers. 🤣

No budget = Battlebeaver all day Mid of the road options = Elite Series 2 or Razer Wolverine Chroma Pro For people on a budget=powerA remotes or strikepack add on if it’s just for paddles and not scripts.

[@Esidi]

Always wanted to try BB but to pay in Canada with the exchange rate and shipping it’s too pricey

[@eddtru]

No offense, none of these are even remotely better than cheaper options. Battlebeaver is a complete ripoff, so are all the modded 1st party controller brands.

[@StardustLegacyFighter]

What makes BB better than Hex Gaming or Scuf?

[@raz0gaming]

elite series 2 is a good controller but for that price if u use it EVERYDAY u will find the stick to drift or the button is less sensitive in JUST over 8 months and that SUCKS as for a controller it is a VERY PREMIUM price tag,while my G pro wireless that costs more or less the same does perfectly fine in 3 years with no double click on my unit,it sucks that in a sense i paid the same amount of money which for a controller is a very premium price tag compared to mice that many brands made the same mice at that price point so it is considerably a "fair" price point since every brand is also doing that and it lasts me extra years of use what a total ripoff

[@maritimesteak8540]

Me personally the scuf looks like a good pro controller but those back paddles to me personally is some of the worst designs. I think the elite series 2 has the best back paddles and only controllers with similar designs come close to as good. Maybe I'm biased because that's what I've adjusted to the easiest but the paddles that are like the scuf instinct never worked for me. I've always adapted to using all my face buttons on the elite series 2 on the back paddles for shooters it's excellent and I've gotta say once you adapted to that you can go back but it will never feel the same two buttons is cool and all but mastery of the 4 back paddles is an excellent skill to have.
