Best PS5 Hall Effect Controller
Last Updated: January 12th 2026, after a few months of ownership; still amazing. Original: (Background) I'll be honest I play video games every single day. From Marvel Rivals, Overwatch 2, Apex, Rocket League, Minecraft, Arc Raiders, Battlefield, Monster Hunter, you name it I played it. I have always used the playstation controllers and after going through four PS5 controllers I was over it... I reached the point where I bought the sensors and a solder gun and would just fix it DIY, which works but is extremely tedious and has a high chance of messing up your controller if you fail. I was so tired of buying a new controllers or fixing them. So I thought about getting the dualsense edge. But it uses the same joystick sensors as a regular PS5 controller... yay more stick drift. Then $20 for each stick to replace it. Heck no lol. (The Hex Controller) Then I looked up the best PS5 hall effect controller. This was within the recommendations and was a top contender. (Also FYI I almost ordered the wrong controller so make sure it says "hall effect"in the name or prodcut ladies and gents!) Anyways this is the BEST investment of money for a controller I've ever made! I'm kicking myself in the butt for not buying it years ago. Hall effects last for YEARS and are smooth! This controller feels amazing in the hands and top quality. All my buttons worked, it came tuned right out of the box, make sure to check everything once it arrives. The different profiles work great for all the different games you wanna play and even has the ability to turn it off if you don't care for the back buttons. For shooter games those mouse click triggers change the game especially for burst/semi auto guns (The Kettle on Arc Raiders) or that ADS speed. Overall if you get this controller on sale here or their website for $175-$200 it's a no brainer deal. But I would maybe recommend buying on the website because I think you get the carry case there and a cable. (I didn't receive either one from this seller, but it came in the HexGaming box... *shrug*) Pros: Quality feel, great mouse click triggers, ease of use, recalibration tool for stick drift or etc, plug and play, hall effect sensors, 4 mouse click back buttons, 6 different back button profiles, no latency, and honestly a fantastic grip! (Didn't Test Rumblers, speaker, microphone, or adaptive triggers.) Cons: Requires a loose grip due to back button placement. Seems some people run into button issues down the line, (I haven't). Amazon seller doesn't come with the case or cable for charging. Personally I don't like the backbutton placement so I don't use them but that's probably personal opinion. Battery drains faster than a standard PS5 controller BUT that's expected from hall effect sensors. Overall: Could be a better price like around $175-200 ($249 before tax seems a bit steep, but hey competition & inflation). Tbh it does a fantastic job overall, and is well worth the money! I give it a 8.5/10, just wish they made a cheaper/different one without the back buttons, but instead with a bigger battery, then it would be 10/10! Read moreVer másVer menos
