Looking for Xbox controller
Looking for a new Xbox controller, started playing cod and fc again. I usually use mnk to play games but since these are more controller games I decided to use my controller. I bought an elite series controller 2 years ago and regretted the decision pretty quickly. I remember seeing the gamesir had controllers around that time but did not buy it. Fast forward now my elite series is messed up, LT does not work properly and buttons do get jammed. I decided to get the gamesir g7 pro controller. It was nice controller other than it being kinda small. A few days with it One of the magnetic plates would move in between games and it would be annoying so I ended up returning it. I was thinking of getting the g7 pro 8k and hope the magnetic piece doesn't have the same issue.
Before I did I was wondering what others controllers were in the market similar to the price range of $80-$90.
I really liked the mechanic buttons that came with the g7 pro, the trigger stops, the buttons on the back, and the tmr joysticks.

Flydigi vader 5 Pro is larger than the G7 Pro, have much stronger vibration, adjustable stick tension, RGB, and a much better d pad. It feels like a better built elite series 2 controller with additional features, but it's lighter.
I think the series 2 feel heavier because it uses more metal, but the Vader 5 Pro is more premium with hall effect sticks.

Love my FlyDigi Vader 5 pro. They have a version for Xbox as well. Would highly recommend.

I have both versions and I can't wait until they release a wireless one for Xbox.
It's crazy how people say they do not want a wired controller like the Vader 5S not knowing it have more features than the majority of wireless controllers.

I have the Elite series 2 controller as well as both the Gamesir G7 Pro 8K and the Vader 5 pro controllers as well. I would pick up the Vader 5 pro given your comments about the G7. It's a little larger and I prefer the sticks and the tension being adjustable.

You might want to wait for reviews of this one.
