Sounds like this would be GREAT alternative to 8bitdo! I bought my daughter the 8bit and it literally got (double) stick drift in less than 12 HOURS OF USE! Hall effect from here on out. Thanks for the review!
@@128KBI had joycon drift 20 minutes after getting my switch on 2017 release night midnight playing breath the wild right out the box.. have never before or since experienced drift ever on any controller... oh and my binbox ultra arrived today thanks for the review the forced gyro aim assist that you kinda didn't understand in your review. is amazing, it's not a gyro for a gyro it's a forced gyro were gyro isn't supported in game. I turned off my switch games gyro and replaced it with the forced gyro and its every bit as good sometimes better... thise extra triggers are clicky as hell and amazing the bumpers are the best I ever used, but I'm not fan of the analog triggers, even in digital mode the travel to engage is to long. Oh the rumble is amazing to strong but thudding not bussing. Thanks for tne heads up on that one.
@@TammerHaddad I did know about that more premium options, but I went with the ultimate C for my daughter. I'm pretty much done with 8bitdo after that. Kinda ridiculous. I'll go with hall effect from a different brand (the drifting wasn't the only issue, also).
@@JDE800 Just like mouse but in gamepad. For the example you're playing FPS game with gamepad controller that has gyro on it and you can just use this gyro feature to move your gamepad so it can move your character when you shooting. So in conclusion you don't need to aim manually with joystick too often as long you use this gyro(just move your gamepad to left/right/up/down/etc), welp you need to master it though or just use both. For more info just google it/youtube.
Was going to get a 8bitdo 2C, then saw another comparison review of this... So pleased I did. All the comments I have seen saying 8bitdo quality is sketchy AND £18 in my local Argos! WINNING!
I bought this on Aliexpress for 6 dollars plus 12 dollars with taxes, with discounts. I have PS5, Xbox One S and Steam Deck, it's a good controller, I'm in shock. 10/10
Its a great sale sir. I got mine for 8 dollars because of discounts and have no regrets. Unfortunately mine came with firmware 5700 and the bluetooth didn't work with the PC. But some research and downgrading to firmware 4200 solved the problem. Now I'm getting used to the layout, since I've always used the DS4 layout on 8bitdo's.
I can’t seem to figure out how to pair it to my Apple devices. It says I need to update the firmware and I tried with the android connection with an and home button but it doesn’t work.
£17 i got this for today !! its actually really good. Use it on PC and on my devices to play games through Luna. my trigger button doestn have any play. Nice case and solid build. REALLY IMPRESSED - for now......
@@ChrisLaw84 had to downgrade the firmware to enable bluetooth, the button system settings are confusing, but the controller is ACE! I have been trying to do less gaming... Here I am doing more now haha!
bought one but no manual or anything so not sure what the buttons do or how to connect things.. qr code to the manual goes to dead link. nice to know about the nintendo switch layout. that was wierd. also its to be used with switch so...
The controller is fine, and I really like the thumbstick technology. But the connection is awful. Yes, you can connect with multiple devices, but good luck with the headache of having to reconnect every time
just picked up this controller on sale, works perfectly but how do you know when its fully charged? My controller just blinks green for a moment than stops
so i just bought this and ive been charging it for abt 2 and a half hours and when i try to turn it on all it does is blink and it won’t connect to my switch, why is that?
Can you please help me I just got this controller by watching your review but whenever I connect the controller using the dongle the light automatically turns red instead of green after 2 3 seconds... It worked perfectly at first but then I tried to connect it via Bluetooth maybe I did something wrong idk please help me I tried reseting but didn't work
Can I play without the bluetooth thing on the lite one? Or can I play via cable? I am worried that I lose the little connector or that the bluetooth colapses
i got this on sale for 12.5$ on aliexpress but my LB button isnt working 😞 (rare case), whats more special is it supports the switch, many more expensive controllers dont if you find it on sale id say go for it, if not there are better models
Hello 128ers I was wanting to know is the chicken head gamesir button actually a button? I just need it for xbox remote play on my phone or tablet will this button work as xbox logo home button?
They’re not bad at all. I bought two GameSir Nova Lites, & I can tell you that these controllers can go toe-to-toe with the best from Microsoft & Sony quality-wise.
Iv been using pro Nintendo controller on pc since 2017 and now my binbok ultra and soon the nova as my Nintendo pro is old now but works perfectly.. switch pro layout is perfect whatever platform you use.. and gyro is king no matter were you use it no gyro no play been my rule since 2006
@@askeladden450 people who play on console -_- also people who play on games with good aim assist. you sound kinda bad lol. controllers have the benefit of having instant access to the buttons especially if you have a scuf. its inconvenient to reach for the C key or CTRL key to crouch or prone on keyboard or use the mouse wheel to select the weapon you want - those seconds you lose will get you killed
@@askeladden450 people who say controllers are bad for FPS games tend to also be the same people with uncoordinated hands that cant aim to save their life 🥺
@@lordrevan7569 just get a pc lol, dont be a cheapskate or you will regret it. Learn to aim properly without using baby tools like aim assist. Stop playing all the kiddie games and play some proper fps titles like cs or arma. And 'Its inconveniet to reach for c key' lmaooo.
@@askeladden450 i do have a PC lol. Fail. and a gaming laptop both cost over $3000. i can aim on both mouse and controller. you are just an unskilled FPS player XD. did bro really just call arma a proper FPS title? double fail. dont reply again. come back when you learn to aim. and yes it is inconvenient to reach for the C key because you have to rotate your left hand which impairs your ability to reach for other keys like E T F G and number keys. on a controller you never have that issue your fingers are already touching everything. learn to aim. all pros use controllers. but you can keep crying and blaming the controller for your lack of skill 😢

They both has it.

Switch it over to Bluetooth if you haven't already
This controller is one of best feeling I ever had the cap grip should be the norm for controller
I just got one for 17$. Sooo im happy.

Paid something like 13$, ordered on Nov 6th from China, according to tracking passed local customs on Nov 12th, can't wait to get my hands on it.

Budget controllers have been wild these past couple years.
how is it? Can you play wired with usb-c cable in pc?
@@macroftStudio yes you can with no issues
There is a firmware update out for this on the gamesir app, it messes up bluetooth detection for some reason
You might have to use version 4200. I had to do that to connect to the dongle with my Steam Deck dock.
Thank you so much man, great review! ordered mine as soon as the vid finished. subscribed

can you connect it with steam deck without the dongle?
Can I play without the bluetooth thing on the lite one? Or can I play via cable? I am worried that I lose the little connector or that the bluetooth colapses
Just use your phone cable type c for Xbox controller on PC. For Wireless use the 2.4hz dongle or Bluetooth on phones.
EasySMX T39 or GameSir Nova Lite for Steamdeck GNU/Linux?
Bro I'm confused between them too!
Did you buy yet?

odd. I hope the seller didn't cheating on me.
Definitely contact the seller if you haven’t already!

That home button wakes the Switch up??
So between the nova, and the nova lite, which do you think is better?
@@Toxic3610 personally, excluding price, I'd chose the nova but for the price point the lite is great!
@@128KBI'd choose the Light because it's multi platform and very cheap controller.
What’s the battery life
love the vibes 😎
will it work on MacOS?
How do you connect it to xbox

yes it will

Just tried it today, sending it back. Terrible polling delays on an Android BT
Hey, does this work in Android TV?
I'm pretty sure it will if it has a bluetooth receiver or a usb slot in the android tv
how is the battery?
Battery lasts about 10 hours
Does this work for rocket league pc?
The L2 R2 not safety enough, its so easily broken for some reason
is this better than 8bitdo ultimate c 2.4g wireless?
Does this work with Tesla?
