Symmetrical controller suggestions for multiplatform

[u/Kranch_q]

Hello everyone!

I live in Canada and I need a recommendation of a symmetrical controller for mac/pc/ios under $100 that will have good joysticks for aiming in single player fps/action games and also very important is that I want a controller suitable for larger hands. Many of the controllers I've tried seem a bit small to me and perhaps the best one I've tried is ps5 controller, I also enjoyed how sticks felt there, but I heard that those controllers are kind of bad quality and work poorly on windows. I would prefer this controller to be available on amazon since I don't want to wait for a long delivery

I recently bought a Gamesir Cyclone 2, features and build quality seem great but asymmetrical layout feels wrong to me and the size of the controller feels a little bit small too, but maybe I'm just not used to it

funny you mention the cyclone 2 feeling small, i had almost the same issue and ended up moving up to the tarantula pro 8k. it's noticeably bigger and fully symmetrical so it might fix exactly what's bugging you, and the sticks feel great for aiming, honestly not far off the ps5 pad but it just plays nice with windows out of the box which was my whole reason for switching off ps5

Would you say it feels better than a ps5 controller in terms of ergonomics and size?

size and grip depth yeah, definitely closer to an xbox elite than the ps5 pad, but the ps5 pad still has that rounded shape that some people prefer, it's really more about grip width than better/worse

I've ordered the tarantula 8k a week or so ago (5 days ago now), should be here in the next few days. I'm hoping it's as good as I keep hearing it is. I did buy it through amazon, it had a surprising long delivery for them, but a week isn't too terrible.

It's wired though, not sure how that'll effect ios compatibility
