Nice! I am liking your GuliKit controller - I use the KingKong 2 Pro often and it's great.
I'm thinking of getting one but I don't like the Xbox One form factor think it looks kinda ugly and probably doesn't feel good
How's it feel to hold compared to a steam controller/deck/ps5 controller?
I think the Xbox form factor is fine. I've used DualShock 3 and 4 a lot, also Joycons and Steam Deck, but I don't mind the different layout. The ergonomics are good. Better than Joycons and maybe even the DualShock. I haven't used DualSense though. The Steam Deck is superior for me, because I always use the right track pad, since it's much better for controlling the view than a joystick is. Maybe I'll try to get a Steam Controller sometime, but till then I am completely satisfied with KingKong 2 Pro.
I preferred Xbox form factor over the Dualshock 3 and 4, but Dualsense is just next level in terms of ergonomics. I am not sure if its just me, but it feels molded to my hands and presses into my palms in all the right places. I just wish it had an easily replaceable battery pack. I miss the AA batteries the Xbox controllers used.
