Thanks for this! It's good to know how things hold up over time, I'd argue that this type of videos are even more important than the initial reviews - most people will only buy one controller to use. I got t4k 3 months ago and it's holding up really well so far. I've been thinking about getting vader 3 pro later but now I'm cautious. Have to do more research to see if it's worth getting or buy something else instead.
I also have the T4K for less than a month now but it already has recentering issues on the right analog stick. But aside from that, really contented overall with the controller. Though I might consider switching to the original G7 as I've noticed potentiometer sticks are more accurate.
i got t4k back in june, and my controller usage was much lower (only playing rpg/3rd person games with it), and those singplayer games always have built in deadzone, but going into gamepad tester and shaking my controller shows even worse results. Also my right stick certainly feels looser in the middle. Currently waiting for v3p to arrive.
I opened my controller and applied a drop of motorcycle engine oil this way: I dipped a toothpick in a drop of it and lubed the 2 plastic arch that forms the moving mechanism of the hall module so it won't keep frictioning. I think it will prevent the module from wearing due to the movement.
@@yoyix93 controller is fine I stopped using it, now only my daughter plays Minecraft but she plays everyday several hours and the controller is the same
Essential review, unlike those who only review after the controller's arrival, a review after extended use is highly informative. I had read on a Reddit forum that the Vader 3 Pro was the ultimate controller with a hall sensor, but your experience with drift deterred me from buying it. Perhaps I'll go for the T4 Kaleid, even though wired controllers aren't my preferred choice.
HE sticks aren't a magic fix to the issue. The stick still needs to either actually center correctly (springs etc) and it needs to recalibrate its centre every now and then (Hall effect switches in keyboards for instance do this everytime they receive power). Otherwise they drift just like other sticks, just for a different reason :p The sensors are still accurate, but the stick itself might not centre correctly anymore or the calibration could be off. With cheap HE controlers, it could be either or both.
Very nice to have an update! I just ordered one yesterday, so I guess I'll cancel my order. My ol' reliable Xbox One S controller still has no drifting after 4 years. Guess I'll stick with OEM controllers...
All my controller I get from Amazon like the Vader I get the 2 year warranties. Even covers accidental damage, I just swap them out after 2 years and get credit back to buy another one or an upgraded one
I have the controller and noted 2% drift on the recentering but sometimes not always IT might be the botton that scratches or the spring being loose but 2% drift is nearly perfect still I have 3 month of heavy usage no other concern. but I'll comment latter
@@Ravielsk drift is the same till this day but I stopped playing apex on pc because of the merge I got to play on Xbox series now because it is way easier, and only my daughter plays on pc Minecraft with this controller, the drift has not grew it stays at 2% at max regularly at 0.2%
Great vid! Apex 4 is the only controller that solved mechanical drift issue with its rounded cube pressing on flat plate centering mechanism. This means that centering should still be precise even after prolonged use - a cube would still be a cube :) Just look up its disassembly videos and you'll know what I mean. Sensor wise, hall effect sensors solve the electronic drift - on all controllers with HE sensors. But Apex 4 is the only one addressed the mechanical stick drift, as far as I know.
@@kaiserdostuff Great! Looking forward to your long term review! I'm still with Gamesir SE, but will be looking to update once it's stick springs weaken
The thing I don't see anyone talking about is how much snapback these hall effect joysticks have. I like to flick my sticks. 8bitdoultimate, KK2 Pro, and Vader 3 pro all have this problem to varying degrees
I think the problem is with k-silver modules, maybe they have a little less resistance than gulikit modules, so controllers with that module will last longer without drift
apparently from another review the same module can be tuned to have different resistance, so They tried out the Flydigii direwolf 3 and say it has more resistance than the gulikit kk2, it would be interesting for you to measure that spring for centering the joystick with some kind of force-meter for the next controllers for us to have a "long term" usage idea of how much different springs will last, and please review the Flydigi Apex 4
That's kinda disappointing, I have a much much cheaper EasySMX 9110 got it for only $20 & more than a year now, playing like mad but didn't encounter any drifting issues, weird this Vader 3 pro already have a hall effect joysticks but still drift and just for a month? what a let down.
Same for me, after 1 month of super heavy 8h+ usage (I had a broken leg, don`t judge me ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ) I had to increase deadzone because it started to drift a little due to centering not being that perfect. For comparison, my 8bitdo ultimate with older gulikit halls are perfectly fine to this day, after like... 2 years of usage? This is concerning honestly.
Good to know, I just bought an 8bitdo Ultimate but was considering returning it for a Vader 3 Pro for the trigger stops and two additional back buttons but not sure I will now 🤔
the 8bitdo ultimate bluethooth is better for joystick durability ? I don't see much feedback on drift problems centering on reddit with that controller ?
They're on Hall sensors, so only raw physical worn of mechanics inside joysticks can cause drift problems. You'll probably gonna break something else or decided to buy another controller before this happens.
@@puulsharc I mean Ultimate controllers are not that old model to judge how durable they are. Pro 2 are pretty old now and they are proven to be a rock solid despite regular membrane buttons and analog joysticks. My own Pro 2 is still perfectly fine: no signs of scratches, bad painting, any kind of physical damage, no inputs skipping, zero drift and flawless recentering. To be honest I'm surprised considering how bad became every single Nintendo, Xbox and Playstation controller after this exact period of time. I also got Ultimate with hall joysticks shortly after it's release, but it still too early to judge, but absolutely no issues so far except squeaky trigger and rumbling bumpers, but this is just a minor factory issue that can be fixed easily both by manufacturer and user.
I have A Vader 3 and its fine I like it alot, also have a King Kong 3 max, KKpro 2, t4 kalied, and 8bitdo ultimate. All great and haven't had a problem with them. Currently using the Vader 3 and its a great controller. Im happy with it, no issues on my end and it feels great. I like the Vader A lot so I bought the dock for it too.
@@Cerealkiller824 had any issue with kk3max? does polling rate feels different in realworld for vader and apex?? any notable difference between both the flydigi controller?
well if you dont want a hall senser that develop center issue ( if you a hardcore gamer) then buy 8bitdo ultimate bluetooth one they have great tension sticks so it will not have like this recenter issue @@wybuchowyukomendant
Do you think the gamesir t4k will have spring issue too when it spring have higher tension than the g7 se? I don't have vader 3 pro but o assume it tension is close to g7 se rather than t4k
G7 SE and T4K felt slightly stronger than Vader since both use the same joystick under GameSir brand. But, both use the same design with the same manufacturer K-Silver. Hard to say, since I don't think I can test for a long term review with G7 SE.

@@kaiserdostuff By default every controller and game has it's own factory/default deadzones for drift compensation, because there is virtually no drift-free joysticks, especially on 0% deadzone, and never will be after a certain period of time, every controller will develop a slight "weakness" due to springs degradation, the question is if it's worse than any other controller and if it's worse than classic analog sticks.
