This is what Xbox needs to deliver with their next controller. Gyro feature is long time pending, and it makes precise aiming so much better on consoles.
The ABK leaks do specify an "accelerometer" in the new upgraded Xbox controller coming this fall. What exactly that means I don't know but you would think it should mean gyro support. Of course the controller having it also doesn't mean any games will support it right away but we can hope.
@@ThePhawx can u test with 2 controllers connected on BT.. and play some games if it stutters, lag and fps drop? can u? bcoz i have 2pcs kk2 pro gameplay is so bad, game stutters, lag and fps drop while playing.. i have to connect the other controller with USB and no more issue.. i need to know if kk3 max does not have that issue.. thanks
Love my "Zen Pro" controller (Target-branded KK2). The only thing I found disappointing is that the Zens don't include the swappable A/B and X/Y buttons. But given that I discovered that by disassembling the controller, I rate them a *10/10 for repairability!* 😂
I got it today and tested it with Forza 5, Robocop, and Emulators. I dare say it’s the most comfortable, precise, and smooth controller I’ve used yet. My Elite 2 is looking uncomfortable and lackluster next to it, the 8bitdo Ultimate compares better, but this was just more comfortable and has better features and haptics. Getting a Goku to hopefully pair it with the Xbox. Genuinely recommended.
@@Captain-Chats Nice hapctics. PS5 controller has the edge on this aspect, but very nice nevertheless. The rumble modes are also very good, superior to the Elite controller.
We are so close to a definitive controller... It only needs backpedals that allows you to map keyboard buttons and a gyro that maps to mouse input instead of right analog stick (and all of it working on linux, so we can use on steam deck). Until we have such a controller, i'll stick with my 8bitdo pro 2 and dualsenses
@@OneDollaBill maybe with a firmware update, idk, but I wouldn't expect it from Gulikit since they consistently have showed a philosophy of produce self contained controllers (I mean, controllers that doesn't depend on some kind of software to work/configure). It's a good thing because it becomes more SO agnostic, you configure all controller aspects with some button combination presses, but it is also a bad thing because we can't set things up the way I said in my first comment.
Waaaait a second... Are you telling that if I use this controller on a PC to play a game on Steam it won't use Steam Input's gyro functionality but that it will instead send left stick signals when I move it around? That's literally a deal breaker for me and you'll save me from wasting 80 bucks if real.
i bought it on Amazon last Friday and i love this Controller. Its perfect for Use with my Switch and my Legion Go. And The Travel Case is a great Value to have it in the Backpack.
I have the feeling that Gulikit did not had the intention of that to be a travel case , more like making sure the controller does not get damaged durring transport , and I am saying this because of the material they used for it , I have a similar transport case from TOM TOC with completly different material (much more rigid) , the controller is already sold out in my region unfortunetly , I have the previous one and it was nice
That said, I did also just order a King Kong 3 Max. Though my Mobapad M9 HD already has HD rumble, gyro, analog triggers toggle to digital, rear mappable buttons, etc.
Whoa this looks great. Steam Deck has me spoiled and I don't think I can ever go back to a controller without four paddle buttons on the back. I recently bought the Xbox Elite 2 for that reason, but I only play on Linux and the firmware requires the stupid Microsoft Store for updates. So I might sell that and replace it with the KK3 Max. I could get ~$50 back and lose nothing in the process. Nice to see the gyro included, and Phawx didn't mention it but the grip texture looks good. The only thing I'd say the KK3 Max is lacking to be completely ideal is a trackpad.
I am definitely going to purchase this controller for Switch and other Nintendo stuff because I like the new features that this new King Kong 3 controller offers like changing the triggers from Xbox style triggers to Switch style. I own a king kong 2 pro controller which I will use for my PC gaming.
I have the KK2 Pro. I have gotten great service out of it so far. Works great on Linux. I was thinking of getting the KK3 MAX... but I cannot really justify it as the KK2 Pro is perfect for my use case.
You don’t have to worry about being banned on Xbox because with the Gulikit adapter you literally have to connect the original Xbox controller and it makes the console think your pressing and using the original controller. If you buy Gulikit adapter, you can use them on consoles Xbox Series X and PS5 Gulikit kk3 max can do 1000hz And it also has Macro which means you can auto press while even with the newest Flydigi Vader 4 it’s waiting for an update.
Hi there, how is the gyro compared to the joycons/NS pro controller? As someone who plays splatoon, and have used both a pro switch controller and the KK2 Pro, the KK2 felt a little floaty and not as in sync compared to the switch’s native controllers. I’m wondering if you know how much better the KK3 gyro is in comparison to KK2 or even how close it is compared to the native joycons/pro controller. I think the easiest method to notice the sync motion is (turning left and fast real quick with the controller, like a flopping fish and seeing if it desyncs. The native controller tends to be quite smooth and natural)
no latency testing, nothing about the from zero delay, nothing about sticking paddles in firmware, nothing about how the paddles are firmware only and not programable to keyboard or mouse functions, no mention about how the gryo is firmware mapped to joystick output, nothing about the excessive travel in digital trigger mode. this is not a review its an advertisement
The gyro is only mapped to joystick in windows or dongle mode. It's true independent 6 axis in switch mode. You can just put it in switch mode on PC and remap to xinput via steam input
The one thing I would absolutely love to know is if the left and right analog sticks can be programmed directionally to the back paddles? Great review and it looks top-notch
As a Splatoon player, I don't enjoy this because the triggers aren't as sensitive as the Switch Pro controller, so if you're using brush, rollers, catsup bottle... you aren't able to thunder finger that trigger to get max damage. A solution I found (besides using my switch pro controller with the broken stick) is to map the trigger to the back paddle and have the trigger be turbo button, the problem with that is those back paddles are uncomfortable as hell. If the paddles were where the digital trigger things are (which also do nothing to help, thunder fingering just doesn't register, you have to press down and let it go back up to register as not-holding) then yeah sure, but as-is, it's uncomfortable. I guess I'll rely more on shooters.
Just ordered one of these and had a quick question for @ThePhawx regarding the dongle range. Did you have it connected to a USB 3 port or a USB 2 port? Was wondering if there was any possible 2.4GHz interference from the USB 3 port causing the limited range, or if the range was just that bad.
Could also try putting the receiver on a USB A male to A female cable to get it away from the actual port on the computer. I have had to do this with serveral Logitech receivers.
I think the travel case is great. I often visit my friends house to stay overnight and game all night. I like bringing my own controller so I don't have to put up with his extra sub standard controller....
If this came with a charging dock with passthrough for the USB receiver where the dock effectively acts as the receiver (like the 8bitdo ultimate has) it would be perfect. Is it a little smaller than an official xbox controller? I'm hoping it feels closer to a switch pro controller in the hands than an xbox controller
Only thing left to add to this would be a proper dock, like the 8BitDo Ultimate, and Xbox/Playstation functionality. *It looks so good that I might buy one though!*
Wow, if you compare it to other Elite Controllers (sony, ms) the KK3 Max has crazy value. Hey do you know, if it's possible, to connect multiple KK3 Max to 1 Dongle?
Something to bear in mind with USB wireless dongles - do NOT plug them into USB3.0 ports. The extra power those ports push will cause radiowave interference at 2.4ghz. Guess what wavelength both Bluetooth and low-latency wireless use? Try plugging them into a USB2.0 port, a USB2.0 extension cord, or a USB2.0 hub.
On Steamdeck I only like using gyro aim with mouse input, gyro mapped to analog input is a no-go for me (yes that includes the simulated mouse analog stick, it's still floaty). Ironically simulating an analog stick with mouse inputs works perfectly so all the shooters on my 'Deck only use KB+M inputs.
JOYCON are what matter. Mobapad M6 HD are the truth. First joycon with HD rumble, NFC, gyro, HALL analogs, mechanical buttons with Omron switches, rear mappable buttons, wireless with wake, turbo and macros, anti friction ring, swappable analogs, buttons and dpad, best d-pad in history of controllers AND it swaps with a rocker d-pad I used to nail x6 Zangief pile drivers in Ultra Street Fighter II, which Ive never done before with any d-pad, even Dualsense. These joycon make Switch OLED turn into a Steamdeck Jr. 17 hr battery life, plus if you disassemble the official joycon charge grip to take the wings off and keep the middle slab, you can use it as a pro controller that charges. Topping Pro Controller is easy. Mobapad did it years ago with M9 HD. But nailing the perfect JOYCON like this? Thats the story you should be running. Go order a pair of Mobapad M6 HD (white ones, the pastel are M6 S which are identical but no HD Rumble) from Aliexpress. Do a vid on THOSE!!!
While your video was review was pretty good overall, I have a few lingering about this controller. One, while it has a polling rate of 1000hz, what is its actually input latency.? Does it come close to the PS5 Dual Edge? Which is the fasted controller on the market. Two, what's the latency and polling rate when just plugged in via USB? Three, KK3 has three vibration modes, does that mean it can get the same haptic feedback like a PS5 controller?
5:39 It actually can work with xbox through separate adapter called goku..I’ve been using the kk2 for a year with my xbox and it works just fine but you have to connect the original xbox controller to the adapter in able for gulikit controller to work note that my xbox controller have stick drift problem. And gulikit controller work without problems through my xbox controller
One thing I can add to this discussion, I will not be happy with any videogame controller until the analog stick mechanism is screwed to the board and not soldered. Gamecube and Dreamcast were designed this way and they're super easy to work on. Soldered down analog sticks are just not acceptable, in my opinion.
Previous model had a significant flaw: form of controller itself made in such way, so pointer finger placed on the triggers. And only on a triggers. I've have a problem pressing bumpers on this, it make my hand hurt. So i've gave it to other people to try. Same issue. Every other controller i have does Not have that problem. The worst was 8bitdo pro2, which i'll describe as "a bit uncomfortable". That sad, coz kk2 is nicest control ive seen, but unusable in practice. Im am afraid that could be an issue on this one too
I had the exact same experience. The controller felt really good…until I tried to hit L or R. It was such a let down. I agree the 8bitdo controller wasn’t great either. I got both at the same time and couldn’t believe how much worse the shoulder buttons were compared to my switch pro controller.
@@potluckcookin you know, i've had another problem with pro2. It was impossible to press diagonals, so i've printed a new dpad. Looks awful, have sharp edges, but it works
Like the Zen Pro, but this seems like a nice upgrade with the buttons and paddles. Need a set of playstation buttons and its the perfect emulator controller
Does it allow for you to just pass the gyroscopic readings through, like a Dualshock 4 or Dualsense? That'd be better than this software solution they made so you can just use Valve's Controller API.
I recently broke my 10 year old ps4 controller which was perfect for aiming as it had loose tension while at the center of the deadzone and didn't have a "hump" you had to get over like most controllers allowing for fine microadjustments, and was buttery smooth, if you could recommend any controller PURELY for aiming like my use-case what would you recommend this controller for FPS games and if you would have a better suggestion than this controller what would it be?
Does this give analogue control using right trigger of acceleration in racing games on Nintendo Switch or is that just not possible with the Switch using any controller? I bought a generic pro type Switch controller with hall effect sticks and triggers and that doesn't allow progressive acceleration in MarioKart, Grid Autosport or any of my other Racing games.
Can you use the Switch Pro charging station for this? Mine has a dongle into the USB port then sits on the cradle. So that dongle works smoothly on Linux, eh? I really liked the backlighting I am seeing in your video. I really need to buy this! I want it for Switch and also for my Linux PC. I never never found use for back paddle and in a charging dock I don't know if they would work as I see since value to them😊
Regarding your caveat with the receiver, were you using a usb 2.0 hub/port? USB 3.0 causes a lot of intereference. I had a similar issue with my 8BitDo ultimates, switching to 2.0 completely resolved all my connectivity issues, my range was easily doubled.
Thank you, this is interesting. I always seek out native USB 2.0 functionality on motherboards of late. I'm with an X570S currently and my case (from 2022) has two USB 2.0 at the front even, I'm wondering whether this might solve some issues regarding the complaints I've seen about the HD rumble. It's not as simple as one thinks to just plug certain HIDs into USB 3.0 and as far as I've seen certain adapters and wot not don't work with older devices. I have too many antiques to keep to ditch 2.0 yet! I'll check it out when mine arrives. edit: if using USB 2.0 is required to get the controller to work optimally, then that might be a bit of an oversight by Gulikit. It's not particularly a desired feature in newer systems.
I hope they've gone in and adjusted the RB LB buttons. My KingKong 2 pro's RB got really mushy over time. It doesn't click anymore. So yeah I want a replacement but not if it's exactly the same.
My laptop only recognizes the controller as a pro (switch) controller. When i put the dongle that came with it in the laptop, it wont switch to the pc icon. It stays on switch. Any advice? This is my 2nd controller, first one i had to return that died after i updated the firmware from the gulikit site..
Can't we set the controls on the back like any other button? For example, I want to use the b button as well, I don't want the button on the back to do the same function.
This is 1:1 almost exactly the original Xbox Elite controller, but with upgraded analog sticks. Amazing value.
Its like bro said almost. @FellThrew

I really liked the backlighting I am seeing in your video. I really need to buy this! I want it for Switch and also for my Linux PC. I never never found use for back paddle and in a charging dock I don't know if they would work as I see since value to them😊
Why is 1000hz a big deal if the distance suffers with range? Seems like using bluetooth would be better?
Regarding your caveat with the receiver, were you using a usb 2.0 hub/port? USB 3.0 causes a lot of intereference. I had a similar issue with my 8BitDo ultimates, switching to 2.0 completely resolved all my connectivity issues, my range was easily doubled.
Thank you, this is interesting. I always seek out native USB 2.0 functionality on motherboards of late. I'm with an X570S currently and my case (from 2022) has two USB 2.0 at the front even, I'm wondering whether this might solve some issues regarding the complaints I've seen about the HD rumble. It's not as simple as one thinks to just plug certain HIDs into USB 3.0 and as far as I've seen certain adapters and wot not don't work with older devices. I have too many antiques to keep to ditch 2.0 yet!
I'll check it out when mine arrives.
edit: if using USB 2.0 is required to get the controller to work optimally, then that might be a bit of an oversight by Gulikit. It's not particularly a desired feature in newer systems.
I hope they've gone in and adjusted the RB LB buttons. My KingKong 2 pro's RB got really mushy over time. It doesn't click anymore. So yeah I want a replacement but not if it's exactly the same.
My rb button is broken too.
Anyone know if multiple controllers can connect to the 1 USB receiver?
My laptop only recognizes the controller as a pro (switch) controller. When i put the dongle that came with it in the laptop, it wont switch to the pc icon. It stays on switch. Any advice? This is my 2nd controller, first one i had to return that died after i updated the firmware from the gulikit site..
Can't we set the controls on the back like any other button? For example, I want to use the b button as well, I don't want the button on the back to do the same function.
Is this any good for racing games? Do the triggers have long travel
I think from a competitive shooter POV this controller is a better recommendation over the original KKP2 controller.
whats the dpad like? can you do hadokens easy? on streetfighter
is this compatible/works well with pc games like f1 23 and assetto corsa?
just ordered it. My first "good" controller after using my shitty Logitech one for years
Probably missed this bc I’m listening, but can I plug in and run wired ?
may I know what laptop is that you’re using for testing the receiver? might need to cop one
Thats the GPD Win Max
Can you use 2 King Kong controllers with 1 USB receiver on your PC?
does this controller have on the fly turbo? like can I assign one button to turn turbo on and off with ease?
Cool vid not worth $80 though and being sold on a lie. The face buttons are membrane. They need to go back to the zipper travel case.
Hows the gyro latency on the switch? Higher than the pro?
Hi just got the controller, updated after a long time.
Now it won’t move from switch to pc.. 😂
Any suggestions?
How do you remove the back paddles? I cant remove them, I am scared to break them
Can you use the USB dongle with the Switch to get the max hz?
Should I buy this or the gamersir g7 se for pc
Does it have nfc /amiibo reader?
Can you use Amiibos?
Is it possible to play Nvidia Now directly on Android TV using that USD dongle?
The controller is nice but the rumble in HORRIBLE. Way overpowered
Can anyone tell me if the Gulikit kk3 Max controller works on PS4 with the Goku adapter with a good polling rate for competitive games?
The digital trigger pull still looks pretty long
Honestly they aren't mechanical face button on KK3 Max.
They only just a normal Tactile/Membrane button.
Does the perfectly circular analog stick output cause any glaring issues besides in ppsspp? Is there any way to have it be more squareish globally?
Can you tell me what ppsspp is? 😅
latest ppsspp has a option to fix this unless it got rolled back recently
I just bought this controller because of your review. Don't care about the downside coz i wont be playing more than 8ft 🤣
So... u can't connect the controller using the dongle connection, and benefit of gyro and other stuff?
on PC that kinda applies to every controller because of x input
