Gulikit NSW KingKong Pro 2 vs 8bitdo Pro 2
What are the pros and cons between the two?
I've been eyeing the 8bitdo Pro 2 for a while now for using on my PC, Android, and Switch. But then I saw that Gulikit was available locally as well at almost the same price.
I'm interested in the Gulikit because of the supposedly better joystick durability due to the hall effect joysticks.
Thoughts on these two controllers?
Any glaring issues I should know about?
Also I know both of these controllers don't support PS5, but it would be a plus if there's some way to use it on a ps5 as well.
Besides the lack of hall effect sensors, the biggest complaint I've heard about the 8bitdo is the ergonomics. Because of the shape, your sits have to stay at a sharper angle which causes joint fatigue much quicker than the KingKong.
Personally, I own the KKP2 and love it. The shape is exactly the same as on Xbox so if you're familiar with that and like the feel, I absolutely recommend the Gulikit controller.
I'm more of a playstation guy, so I don't really know how an xbox controller feels.
I do have huge hands so hopefully it'll feel comfortable.
I've typically bounced back and forth between Playstation and Xbox so I can say that if you preferred the overall feel of the DualShock 4 over the previous DS controllers you'll probably find the shaper incline of the grips on the KKP2 feel more natural to you but the upshoot is both controllers are on the larger size so size shouldn't be an issue for you either way.
