literal 10/10 controller for MODERN games. I use it every day for 3 years now. No regrets. Make sure you get the latest revision. Like the translucent ones.

>>713471726 (OP)
Buy a Pro 2 instead.

>grips
On a scale of 1 to SNOY, how offended are you right now?

>>713471726 (OP)
they literally sell a better version of it

>>713471726 (OP)
I have an old Pro 2 with no hall effect stick or buttons and it still works after a few years.

>>713471726 (OP)
the version with handles is better

Chinese dogshit.

not recommended

How does it work if there's no buttons?

>No analog trigger

That's a no for me

Is this a bot post?

The dpad is atrocious, even on newer versions. The pro 2 dpad though is excellent.

i had an SF30 pro, used it until the sticks deteriorated
it's fine, except that L2/R2 aren't analogs if you play games where that matters
if you need analog triggers get the pro 2 instead

I've had mine for 2 years and it's been pretty solid. Do they have a reputation for being shit?

>>713472836
Yeah I didn't like Elden Ring either.

>>713473396
their quality control is kind of for shit, some people luck out and some get screwed
my pro 2 is hanging in there but the r1 has lost all feedback (still registers fine), the battery exploded months ago, and the input mode switch on the bottom has always been very sensitive and if it gets bumped at all it's likely to disconnect the controller

This controller is crap, but ironically it's better for modern games than older ones. I played Zelda BOTW for 150 hours on the oldest version of this same controller (the SN30Pro with start and select on the diagonal), and although it was pretty bad, it allowed me to play the game normally. It was only when I tried to play 2D games that require precision that the whole experience went down the drain (Tetris 99, Celeste, Mario Maker, Mario World kaizo romhacks, difficult 2D games in general, etc.).

>the battery exploded months ago
Did it literally explode?

>>713474103
it inflated, as lithium batteries do
i never actually used it wireless so it was no real loss to me, but i should've just taken it out in the first place

>no grips
This would be fine if you spend no more than 30 minutes at a time playing a game. I would consider almost anything else if you're looking for a controller that can handle anything you throw at it.

I always used an SN30 pro on my switch and got a Pro 2 when I got my switch 2
I really like it, the Pro 2 is definitely a slight upgrade but I dont think I'll ever use the back buttons

also recently found out you can just throw some normal batteries in where the recharchable pack is I feel stupid for not already trying that

>>713471726 (OP)
Dogshit controller shilled here constantly. Dpad and sticks will be fucked within a year.

>>713471726 (OP)
Its too small, stixks too close together, thumbs collide

Cmon Chang give me a Pro 3 with TMR sticks and 1000hz polling rate.

>>713471726 (OP)
As much as I enjoyed the snes controller back in the day.... those things are not ergonomic. After using the comfort of a ps1 controller... it's just hard to go back to snes controller.

>>713471726 (OP)
don't have the exact model in pic but mine is great and clunky.
