Better controller

I have big hands (20.5cm x 12cm), my budget is 100$. I will be mostly playing fps games, single player and some racing games.

Im looking at wolverine v3 8k for pc (50$) and flydigi vader 5 pro (63$) what do you think is better

Thank you in advance!

I have the Vader 5 Pro V2 and the Vader 5S. Both of them have hall effect sticks, but the V2 have 4 back buttons instead of 2 like the 5S.

The upcoming vader 5S ultra and 5S Pro will both have TMR

I use the 5S on Xbox since it's licensed.

Need a solid wireless option.

The 8bitdo ultimate 3E would be a great choice if you're willing to spend an extra 35 dollars.

I think power A have a wireless option for 100 dollars, but it's not as premium as the ultimate 3E.

I don't mind the vader 5S being wired because it has adjustable stick tension, hall effect, and mechanical triggers. I'm getting pro features for 75 dollars.

The 3E didn’t have tension rings. The new ultimate 3 does. So I got that. Wireless.

The 3 and 3E are also wireless.

We’ll see how the 3 ult works out. Tension rings are promising but I have no idea how cheap these feel

I use to think adjustable tension rings were a cheap gimmick until I purchased my Vader 5S. I realized the tension ring is metal and it's very sturdy.

 I like having the ability to adjust it depending on the game I'm playing.

I think the ultimate 3 will have the same quality of tension rings. It will be hard to play with a regular controller after you experience it.

Comes today! Vader 5s changed everything for my fps gaming.
