What do you mean by removable? are there batteries you can't take out by removing a few screws and unpluging/unweld some wires.
>>722818989Wtf is a chatpad and why would I need it when I have a keyboard in front of me I can switch to on the fly?
>>722819051no screws, just remove the back cover to replace the battery
>>722819135>filtered by tiny little bitty screws.does /v/ really?
>>722819082a chatpad is something that plugs into your controller to add a keyboard for typing on
>>722819249
reminder that if your controller doesn't have a wire then it is bombarding your testicles with emf radiation
>>722819220>risk damaging your controller to replace the battery>having to buy no name chink replacements of dubious qualityno thanks
>>722819481>risk damaging your controller to replace the batteryfiltered
>>722819481your risking damage to yourself and those around you by just existing
>>722818989>that leaves us with the xbox series controller and 8bitdo pro 2skill issue
>>722818989absolute nonsense.
>>722819681>>722819684>justifying buying worse controllersenjoy your slop i guess
>>722818989if your controller doesnt have Gyro it might as well be from the 90's
>>722819709name of the controller?
>>722819873now say it again but without crying.
>>722819873The Xbox controller is the very definition of slop.
>>722819914usecase for gyro, and don't say shooters
>>722819961turn up the brightness on your display, you're not support to see your reflection in it
>>722820043Am I crying because I cannot replace a battery?
>>722818989Can you stash normal AAs in there?
>>722819982>slopthe xbox controller just works
>>722820116yes you can
>>722819991>usecase except for this specific popular genre its used most for
>>722819991Any game where you need to aim something ever.>What's 2 plus 2? Don't say 4!
>>722820095no you're crying cause you bought a worse controller
>>722820158holy shit, this is the best thing ever
microsoft really brainwashed a generation of retards into believing that its a good thing that they arent putting rechargeables into their gamepads while charging premium for them.
>>722820181you use a mouse for playing shooters retard
>>722820256or I could use a controller that works well enough.usecase for mouse? and don't say aiming.
>>722820220your welcome
>>722820256You guys really arnt beating the allegations that only Xfags hate Gyro because they are left out
>>722818989Switch pro controller has a replacable, removable battery.
>>722820250what's wrong with having a replaceable battery?>>722820304competitive gaming
>>722820250It's a bit weird yea. Have to buy battery separately. Has less functions than competition. Still costs same as nintendo/playstation controller
>>722820365does it need a screwdriver to remove, if it does then it doesn't count
>>722820417>too braindead to use a screwdriverseveral generations of men are looking at you in shame, anon
>>722820349no we dislike gyro cause it sucks compared to mouse
>>722820417It needs a phillips head screwdriver, yes.>Then it doesn't countSo you think tamagotchi didn't have "replacable batteries" either? You're retarded.
>>722820452>justifying devices getting worse and worseit's you who they look down on
>>722820250You get a rechargeable battery with 8bit pro 2. It has the shape of 2 AA batteries.
>>722820463>acting as if Xfags use mouseyou only hate gyro cause you cant use the crux of controller autoaim
>>722820504You are the one defending the controller with the least features of all controllers on the market here
>>722820463And mouse sucks unless you pair it with something else like a keyboard
>>722820417Just undo some screws, weld two wires.if this were a game, the difficulty would be "very easy" it's not complicated at all, it's not risky at all, it's literally the easiest fix you could ever do.You are a grown up man, you should be able to do fix stuff by yourself.
>>722819481>having to buy no name chink re-ACK!!
>>722820468the different is that tamagotchi just has one screw and a back panel to remove. If controllers were like that then it would be ok but you have to dissemble the whole controller just to replace the battery on them
>>722820517I know I had a pro2.Upgraded to the pro3 because its much better.
>>722820606>"Hello from Seattle">"Made in China"Kekw
>>722820349xbox gods can do the same with auto aim
>>722819135Is the battery universal? All electronics are ewaste by the way, unless they live long enough to become expensive totems
>>722820536>>722820591no one who play competitive uses a controller>>722820573you mean bloat>>722820602no, the point is that i shouldn't have to do that in the first place
>>722819991it's great for games like gta where you need to drive and shoot.driving feels like shit on kb+mshooting feels like shit on a regular controllergyro is a nice middleground.
>>722820695you can get rechargeable double aa's
>>722819481>>risk damaging your controller to replace the batterySCREWS
>>722820736>you mean bloatyet you get charged the same without all of the ''bloat''
>>722820606xbox is name brand, I'm talking about those aliexpress specials
>>722820839doesnt even get rechargeable batteries included.he objectively gets less.
>>722820610No, you don't.You remove screws on a faceplate, then you can take the battery out.You've never used a Switch controller. You've certainly never opened one.
>>722820736No, the point is that you are making a problem in your head that doesn't affects real life. Batteries last for years and if it goes bad you can easily replace it by undoing a few screws, the fact that you somehow think this is such a big problem that you won't buy a controller because the battery "can't be replaced" is insane.literally skill issue.
thanks I'll stick to wired
>>722818989>all these 3rd party controllers popping out with Hall TMR kinoeffect sticks and nice buttons>NONE of them allow for god tier AA Eneloop pro to be used, but come with pathetic 900 mAh 8-10h batteries
>>722820839and yet you pay the same for a controller that's less repairable>>722820889at least I can replace the battery
>>722820897How do you buy official replacements?
>>722820736>consolefag who cant even be assed to undo 2 screws really tries his best to convince everyone hes a epic MLG gamer who uses KB+M
>>722820736>no, the point is that i shouldn't have to do that in the first placethe chances are you'll never even replace the battery. those last ages. chances are in 10 years if the battery is bad. there's new 8bitboodingobingo controller that you've bought anyways.>you mean bloatif bloat means getting more for same price then i'll take the bloat
>>722820989The same place where ALL controllers come from.aliexpress.
>>722820591Nah, keyboards are better than controllers too.
>>722820882it all comes out of the same fucking factory in chengdu
>>722818989Reminder that if a controller can only work with batteries it's ewaste regardless
>>722820736Almost all pro players in Splatoon and Apex Legends use controller
>>722820971so can i im not afraind of screws UNLIKE YOU
>>722820897again all controllers should come with a replaceable battery by default, just like phones and laptops should as well. Imagine justifying a worse experience then what we had before
>>722820927they also all come with docks at no extra cost now so you will literally never run out of charge and dont have to keep replacing batteries like a 90s caveman.
>>722821059I would assume using a mouse for Splatoon is banned>ApexWhy wouldn't you use the aimbot option
>>722821084>Imagine justifying a worse experience then what we had beforeWhat is this "before" you are referring to?Give a specific date, because phones and laptops NEVER came with replacement batteries.
This puts fear into the hearts of the subhumans who post here.
>>722821112If mouse is so good then why it's banned
its crazy how lazy and incompetent the console audience is.
>>722821005>just buy a new controllerno
>>722821059>Splatoon>pro players
>>722821150the galaxy s5 has a replaceable battery and it was waterproof as well
>>722821084having AA is a worse experience than before>gen 4,5 and 6all controllers are wired, no worries>Gen 7.8,9>Controller battery dies>plug in controller and continue playing while it chargesmeanwhile>controller battery dies>have to pause the game to switch batteries>you better pray you have charged batteries on standby or else you have to wait while it chargesMy experience never got worse because i never gave microsoft money for their shit controllers :^)
>>722818989mine straight up doesnt have a battery at all, checkmate wifikeks
>>722821263Good thing you can just plug in an Xbox controller.
>>722821150older laptops had easily swappable batterys
>>722821263> else you have to wait while it chargesWhy not just plug in controller and continue playing while it charges
>>722821157people are getting filtered by 'fit the shape of the tool to the shape of the screwhead'
>>722818989if it matters to you that much you should learn how to disassemble the controller and replace the battery yourself. It's simple.
>>722821263xbox sells a rechargeable battery pack for there controllers and you can plug it in while gaming to charge
>>722821536why doesnt Microsoft just release this packed in with the Xbox controller?that way you please both camps of people>those that want to use AA batteries>those that want rechargable controllers
Return to stability. Use hard-wired controllers as God intended.
>>722821502why would I need to dissemble when I can just remove the back cover to replace the battery
>>722821584they do it because it makes them money and they know retards will defend it online like in this thread.
>>722821608ultimately way less effort to do that once a decade or straight up never than to pull out and manually charge batteries all the time.straight up pointless busy work that only benefits microsoft and nobody else.
>>722821584>why doesnt Microsoft just release this packed in with the Xbox controller?Because unless you're a zoomer you already have rechargeable batteries
>>722821623the only retards itt are the ones shilling for less repairable controllers

>>722821738>having to undo 2 screws=it cant be repairedthe amount of braindamage being a consolefag does to you
>>722821738you are pretty much handicapped.downs syndrome people can handle screws.
>some fag scared of screws talking about repairability of thingshe would off himself is an actual part of the controller died and he had to replace it.
>>722821813i play on pc>>722821842the point that I shouldn't need to undo screws in the first place
>>722821925>''i play on PC''>cant be assed to remove two screws
>>722821992i don't need to remove screws on my xbox controller to replace the battery>>722821887I'm not opposed to opening up the controller just that they should make it so that you shouldn't need to in the first place
retarded and autistic.
>>722822135And i dont need a xbox controller because im not afraid of screws and theres tons of better options on the market
>>722822293but it's not better if you can easily replace the battery

>>722822527I got mine off ebay
>>722818989Just a reminder that if the console isn't universally compatible with all bluetooth and USB controllers, then all of its controllers are ewaste.Just a reminder that handheld controllers are made to be cheap pack-ins for consoles, using shortcuts like drift-prone sticks and membrane d-pads, so all handheld controllers are also e-waste.Just a a reminder that releasing obsolete controllers continuously is wasteful, so not including gyro functionality on new controllers just creates ewaste.Don't buy ewaste.>>722819991Practically any game without fixed cameras and tank controls.A handheld controller can't be moved against a reference surface like a mouse can, so simulating one is very helpful.>>722820250I would not mind a fuckhuge 18650 in everything, but it's always these proprietary forbidden marshmallows.

i dont know whats more retarded, not being able to unscrew 5 screws to replace a small battery or defending the practice of complicating the repair process so your average consumer will just buy a new device

>>722823073Gyro is simply better
>>722823050>the practice of complicating the repair process so your average consumer will just buy a new devicemost gamepad manufacturers do not do that.sony 100% does though. clear trend of it getting harder with every new controller.

>>722820927based eneloop chad
>>722823250how does having a removable back cover makes things worse?
>>722823137and it's still easy as shit and takes 5 minutes at most, you literally don't need anything but a screwdriver, and people will just buy a new controller instead of replacing the battery anyway>it getting harderwhat was so easier about unscrewing a dualshock 3 or 4 and replacing the battery in comparison to the dualsense, literally the exact same process, a child could do it
>>722823050The switch pro controller has a battery that's piss easy to replace. You remove the screws from the handles and pull them off and then you have four more screws for the backside to remove the back plate and that's it. You literally only need the right screwdriver size and some basic understanding how to use one. The new pro 2 controller requires you to pop off the face plate and then disassemble half the thing to reach the battery. Former isn't really anti consumer it only requires you to be a functional human being but the latter certainly is.
>>722823453>>722823438let me guess, you are ok with phone and laptop batteries being sealed in as well?
>>722823563Given your illiteracy I can tell why you are afraid of a few screws.
>>722823563Yes. I replaced my phone's battery once after 6 years and have been using it for another 3 years since.It took a bit of time, but it was easy enough, two screws, pry the screen up, pry the battery up with a simple pull of the glue tab, put new battery and glue in, close it back up.With how long these batteries last, there's no reason for it to be easily removable. I still remember on my previous phone if I dropped it and the battery cover and battery would always fly out.
I don't care about screws, I just prefer AA batteries because you can easily find them in stores. Luckily the leaked DualSense revision will use them.
>>722823680And replace them in 8sec when the previous AA die mid-gameplay, and then I'm good to go again for 20-25h.No, I don't have a fucking electric plug near my comfy couch, I live in my house, the couch is not against a wall like in a cuckflat.Batteryfags should get the rope.
>>722823676>>722823563>its a ok for batteries to be sealed in phones, laptops, and controllers unlike how it was before
>>722823809/v/'s contrarianism is so unbelievably retarded.
>>722823331a back cover is a point of failure that you always have your fingers on. feels worse than a smooth surface too.
>>722819914No thanks, I don't want stick drift. Switch Pro has gotta be the worst first party controller I've ever had.
>>722823792>I don't have a fucking electric plug near my comfy couchskill issue.
>>722823809Sealed batteries are better. I'm never going to swap my phone battery on the fly and like I said, one drop and it goes flying across the room. That's just bad design.>b-but use a case!No.
>>722820821Nobody seems to realise this but they're terrible for your devices and it's not recommended to use rechargables

>>722823997>they're terrible for your devicesHow so?
>>722824034They're too convenient. That's not acceptable.
in what situation would i need a chatpad for a PC game?
>>722823989that's already a solved problem, more modern phones have the back cover clip to the sides of the phone so this isn't a issue
>>722824139having the pc hooked up to a tv and using the controller as a kb+m

>>722819481why not just buy a good battery instead of a cheapy no name chink one? Also, if your controller is only getting like 45 mins of battery life isn’t better to take your chances with a cheap battery anyway if that’s your only choice?

>>722819481i just replaced the battery in my old $200 bose mini speaker for $25, which i originally got like 13 years ago thing is brand new again there's probably a lot of electronics you've discarded that could have been fixed easily
>>722826792higher mAh capacity is actually better, and there are TONS of cell options on aliexpress, you just need to get voltage right which is 3.7v
>>722827683Oh you want immediate charge on your controller?
>>722827882theres still tons of household appliences that require a screw to change batterieshell i can only imagine anon buying a new clock everytime the battery runs out
>>722828119>anon buying a new clock everytime the battery runs outOP can’t even use a screwdriver do you expect him to know how to read an analog clock?
>>722827131planned obsolescence is always more profitable.
>>722828572ntayou jest, but gen alpha and most younger gen z can't read analog clocks. It may as well be moon runes to them.
>>722819914That controller doesn't have triggers. It's actually from the 90s. The SideWinder Freestyle Pro had gyro.>>722819991
>>722818989>reminder that if the controller doesn't have a removable battery then it's ewaste,Oh no, I have to jam a plastic spudger in between the seam and take out a couple screws, the horror! By the way, I also installed TMR's inside of my DualSense so this thing is basically destructible. I don't know what came over /v/, but I've been seeing people shill these Chinese controllers nonstop.
>>722818989>xboxlmao
>>722825883You don't know Japanese.
>>722820250X*** tards were always a special kind of stupid, thats why they bought xboxs!I remember 360 not even having wifi lmao lolol.
>>722828926that was unironically better as an unforseen sideeffect of their greed, because for a short amount of time console internet was primarily wired.now its like 90%+ wifi.
>>722828926not just that but they paid premium for Microsoft licensed hard drives while the PS3 allowed you to swap it with any PC hard drive on the market at a much lower costXfags have always been perfect goy cattle
>>722828704I can’t exactly side with boomers on the whole “dey don’t even teach cursive anymore!!!” because I haven’t written anything in script since 3rd grade (1998) but not being able to read a clock face is profound retardation and a complete failure of parenting
>>722828809Where do you think was your DualSense produced?
>>722819481>>risk damaging your controller to replace the batteryWhat? Are you retarded?
>>722820412All because they’re in the pocket of big battery deliberately trying to force sales of AA batteries
>>722828991PSVita was worse
>>722829176nigga one pair is like 10 bucks and you only need one like every two decades
>>722828809>this thing is basically destructibleYeah, that's the fucking problem.
>>722820250>>722828980Buying rechargeable AAs is better than being stuck with Chinese battery knockoffs.
>>722829176lol what
>>722829472Its true. My uncle is a AA battery.
>>722828809>I have to jam a plastic spudger in between the seam and take out a couple screws, the horrorThat's not it. It's that the batteries are proprietary. They will be discontinued and you will have no choice but to depend on the Chinks to keep making knockoffs. Some of those are also glued or actually soldered for some reason.
>>722829472That’s the reason all Xbox controllers need batteries sold separately; Microsoft colluding with uh…One of Energizer or Duracell I can never remember which.
>>722819301That looks like shit to use and I already have a keyboard. Genuinely why would you ever need this?
>>722829775for when you have your pc hooked up to a tv
>>722821584the new crkd guitar does this, shit is so cash.
>>722818989Remider that if you can't aim on your controller it's ewaste. That leaves every other controller except xbox and some cheap chinkshit because microsoft STILL can't add a feature that their competitors have had for almost 20 years.
>>722829831i have a bluetooth keyboard
>>722829934you aim with a mouse not a controller
>>722830064>needing to switch from your controller to keyboard to type
>>722830179to type what? are you playing videogames or are you writing an essay on with a fucking NES controller?
>>722828809probably because chink pads mog the shit out of first party trash.absolute lack of awareness shitting on chink pads when you had to actively mod in a feature even the cheapest changpads have at this point.
>>722830314creating folders for games
>>722829358wrong.
>>722830179i'd wager switching to a fullsized keyboard would be faster than trying to type on whatever the fuck this is >>722819301
>>722818989Goddamn this 8bitdo shilling is getting old.
>>722830574you know of another company besides microsoft that sells controllers with swappable batteries?
Should i even bother fixing my drifting controller or just get a 3rd-party one with "drift-proof" instead?
>>722831129>Should i even bother fixing my drifting controllerOnly if it's a good controller.
>>722831129if its xbox fix it
>>722831129>hall effectoutdated. use tmrs instead
>>722831129Fixing it is based and repairpilled. Also 3rd party stuff is just as good or better than most 1st party at this point. (3rd party getting better while 1st gets worse)
>>722831283hall effect is better than tmr
>>722831412Doesn’t it use too much power and is too lossy
>>722830371>No rebuttalDumbfuck. Lol! Let's see you build your own battery packhttps://imrbatteries.com/products/samsung-50e-21700-5000mah-9-8a-battery>They look like AAsThat's all they basically are. Batteries were never reinvented.And you'll need a Battery Management System, btw.
>>722831412TMR is better in every way.
>>722831475The only real flaw with hall effect is it is more susceptible to magnetic interference>>722831539Wrong.
>>722831563TMR sticks use less power and are more precise, how the fuck is Hall Effect better?
>>722831623Hall effect sticks last longer and have less drift compared to TMR.TMR is notorious for drift with changing temperatures.
>>722818989>>722819135>not even removable AA>just a removable proprietary battery>for 8shitdo no lessI will never touch a fuck-awful d-pad again, let alone your shilled slop.
>>722831731are you wooting shill. yeah if you play at boiling temperatures then play inside a freezer you will fuck the magnets
>>722832098Anon, you can't be a "shill" for hall effect. It's not a brand.
>>722832170Gulikit is implied
>>722828119in my case the replacement battery i bought came with a hex head screwdriver that fit the weird screws in the bottom, the whole process took under a minute
>>722832056I like the pro2/3 d-pad way more than the d-pad on the vader 4.
>>722832208The fuck is is a gulikit
>>722818989>eminder that if the controller doesn't have a removable battery then it's ewasteORRRRRRRRRRR..... your controller is cheap shit that didn't come with batteries built in.How some Nintendo and Sony controllers can have rechargeable batteries built in buyt Microsoft too cheap to do that?
>>722832364Because they’re colluding with Duracell to sell more AA batteries
>>722832528at lease xbox let's you swap out the battery
>>722818989will the tegenaria lite have a wireless option? wish the cord was removable
>>722832528>buy off-brand rechargeable batteries >use them for 7 years and countingDuracell in shambles.
>>722819481>damage>screwsStop using a fucking drill to disassemble your electronics, 'tard
>>722818989I bought the pro 3.
>>722818989Except the 8bitdo Pro 2 still has shitty rubber sticks that rip after a certain amount of time. I used mine very lightly across a few years, and it just happened to me.
>>722818989>if the controller doesn't have a chatpad then it's shit for pc usechatpad for PC. the full keyboard is right there. ?????>i shouldn't have to put the controller down to communicate something in a multiplayer thingwhy would you have to unless you or your teammates are shitters???
you know whats actually gay as fuck?third party controllers
>>722833542>"your teammates">playing online multiplayer slop
>>722833793you know whats actually gay as fuck?any party controllers, what does it even matter if its first second third fourth or fifth
>>722833832I'm not the one saying a controller needs a chatpad for PC. who else are you chatting with while playing a game? a troon discord kitten? who the fuck talks to people while playing games. The first thing anyone should do is turn off voice chat and block all non system messages after booting up a game.
>>722833793kiked
>>722833793Oh, thank god. For a second there I thought you were going to say two men fucking. I'm still safe.
>>722833934>who else are you chatting with while playing a game?im chating with the fucking MAME UI
>>722834005??????????? has science gone too far? does mame have a AI assistant or something? I genuinely have no idea if your fucking with me or this is an actual use case. wait a minute you're trolling me aren't you why wouldn't you be using retroarch
>>722834154>why wouldn't you be using retroarchthats actually a pretty good idea
>>722818989I don't understand the 8bitdo hate the only issue I had with them was the membranes for the buttons. My 8bitdo SN30 pro was probably the only controller in my life that I actually wore out a button to where it was slow to bounce back and affected action games. To be fair I was unemployed playing DMC3SE, Smash ultimate, some other fighting games, and then mashing every single pokemon and other JRPGs like 10+ hours a day. It was bound to happen, otherwise I don't think I've ever broken or worn out a controller.Well they are overpriced I got two of them for 12 bucks on amazon when they did a clearance. Unfortunately controllers have nearly always been overpriced even third party shitter ones.
call me when 8bitdo fixes their garbage latency
>>722823921Wow. So wrong. One of the best controllers ever made. Battery life is practically infinite. The pro 2 controller is even better. I just got a $200 xbox elite controller, I wish I could just use my $80 switch controller on my xbox because it feels superior. And has gyro.
>>722832735>Duracell in shambles.The controller comes with 2 duracell so you already paid for the batteries when you bought the controller.
>chatpadlollmao even
>>722821150Are you 12
>>722834656>he boughted an xbox in the year 202X
>>722834889they're good controllers
>>722820250>microsoft really brainwashed a generation of retards into believing that its a good thing that they arent putting rechargeables into their gamepads while charging premium for them.Sony cucked you into believing a fixed 1000mah battery that barely lasts 3 hours when all the features are enabled is a good idea. And if you dare to try and replace it, you void the warranty on the controller, meaning if you ever suffer from stick drift or a double-inputting d-pad, you're the one forced to pay for and repair them because Sony won't touch the thing.It costs $15 on Amazon to get some 4 Philips 2500mah+ rechargeable batteries that go into your Xbox controller, with an average session time of 10-12 hours. You swap them out when they get low. How anybody can think this isn't vastly superior can only be explained away with Apple-tier brand loyalty.
>>722835020I wasnt talking about controllers.This sentence implies they bought the console >I wish I could just use my $80 switch controller on my xbox because it feels superior.
>>722818989>Propietary batteryNigga, you stupid af
>>722835734>what are rechargeable double aa's
AA batteries are basedWhy would you want a shitty 1000mah lithium pack soldered onto your controller instead of 4,000mah rechargables that replace in seconds
>>722836771because one might be a sony shareholder or an advertiser paid by sony or nintendo to shill on 4chan
>>722836771Are soldered batteries a SCUF/Razer meme or somethingYou can just unplug it by hand in Sony, 8Bitdo, Gulikit, Gamesir, Mobapad, and Flydigi controllers at least. Aside from Sony they'll all even work wired without a battery plugged in.
>>722818989Are these good enough to replace my Shitch 1 Pro controller?
>>722838231yes
>>722835020>$200>no gyro>good
>>722838757>gyro>good
>>722838864Did I stutter?
>>722838757any application where gyro is useful, a mouse would have just been better.Even Splatoon, which I consider the pinnacle example of gyro done excellently, would be better on mouse and keyboard
>>722838940gyro sucks compared to mouse and that's a fact
>>722838985Playing Monster Hunter Risebreak with Gyro feels so good. Specially if you are playing comfy on your sofa
>>722839091and it would feel better using a mouse
>>722839147What kind of faggot plays monster hunter with a mouse?
>>722838985okay explain to me how to play splatoon with mb+k instead of just using my perfectly functional controller then, if it's so much better
