The leak comes as the devices are prepared for mass production, so these are coming soon.

    How is durability on the original one?

    I’m sick of all my controllers getting joystick drift and needing replacement every few years.

      google “hall effect controller” they are immune to joystick drift, and in most games you can even put the deadzone to minimal

      I’ve got three, ranging between 8 and nearly 10 years old, with the oldest one seeing exponentially more use than the others, and they all still work flawlessly. I tend to put hundreds of hours into a handful of games, but I don’t use them every day, if that helps quantity my usage a bit.

      It’s lightweight, which makes it feel cheap, but it’s actually quite durable. Then again, I seemingly experience drift way under the rate that the internet would have me believe that I should.
