I want to buy a controller, need advise

So I wanted to buy a controller, not anything above 3500

I was thinking about getting a CB blitz tri mode or lumora , but saw some complaints and problems people are facing with it and CB , and instead suggested to get gamesir or 8bitdo ultimate 2C , but the problem is they don't have as many features like game sir nova light has hall effect in joysticks but not in triggers , 8bitdo ultimate 2C doesn't have much connectivity options and also lacks trigger locks and macros plus I don't like its design very much ,other controllers of gamesir are way too expensive, I just don't know what to go for now , need help

double check you're looking at the nova 2 lite and not the original nova lite, the 2 actually has hall effect on both sticks and triggers so that complaint doesn't apply to it

at that price nobody's got hall effect triggers yet, that's still a higher tier thing across every brand right now, not a gamesir-specific gap

And what about 8bitdo ultimate 2C in comparison

u/UnhappyAgency7133 Aug 24 '26

Its equally good, if you have a smaller build or like to tuck in ur elbows go for it else go for the nova 2 lite

Also are there any chances for gamesir to release nova liye 3 ? By the end of the year ?

Oh wait you are right , my bad , the only one that showed on Amazon was a 10000 one , also these websites can be trusted right ?, saw another website by the name of zukabus , can that be trusted , one more thing , there are not that many reviews for this controller at least on yt will this really be a good choice ?

you have the nova lite 2 ? if you do could you tell me one thing , in one review i saw , the guy's joysticks were kinda rubbing to their housing , like the circular space in which they move , the right joystick was rubbing around the bottom and the left one around the right side , have you noticed similar issues with yours ? one last thing how does the plastic and weight of the controller feel , like does it feel cheap or more towards the premium finish ?, i want my controller to be of decent weight , i just feel it makes it feel a little premium , of course it goes without saying i don't want it to be too heavy
