🎮 Fantech Revolver III: Budget Controller with Symmetrical Sticks! 🎮
Hey everyone! Just read a review of the new Fantech Revolver III controller – here’s the lowdown:
- Price: Around $25 – a serious budget pick!
- The Good:
- Smooth Sticks: Gulikit Hall Sticks make for a notably smoother stick experience compared to older Fantech controllers.
- Improved Triggers: Wider, hall-effect triggers offer a better feel and a handy “quick trigger” software option.
- Solid Dongle: Automatic connection, USB-A/C compatibility (great for Switch & Android!), and MUCH more durable than previous models.
- The Not-So-Good:
- D-Pad Issues: Reviewer experienced inconsistencies and missed inputs when using diagonals.
- Ergonomics: Feels a little awkward; not as comfortable as some higher-end options.
- D-Pad Positioning: The location of the D-pad may not be ideal.
Overall: Decent choice if* you’re after symmetrical sticks on a tight budget and need compatibility with older consoles. Otherwise, the older Shooter III might be a better bet! Other competitors may also be stronger – especially with features such as a trackpad.
