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.

    I’ve reached the point where if a controller doesn’t have back buttons I don’t even consider it anymore. That’s the only reason I haven’t gotten a kingkong pro 2. I have the 8bitdo ultimate and I like it quite a bit, though I haven’t used the pro 2.

      Yeah, I am in this boat too, regardless of the quality of the controller, I can’t go without the back buttons anymore.

      It has really spoiled me.
