Hex Gaming Ultimate PS5 Controller Review-They Pulled a Scuf 😑

The cosmetic modification on the builder is second to none, and the two rear paddles feel amazing, but the two back buttons leave much to be desired, and much like Scuf controllers you cannot cover all the back buttons comfortably. I think it’s awesome that hex now offers the two paddle "rival" dual sense, and the four paddle "ultimate" PS5 controller, and if I had to recommend one it would be the ultimate in this video.

Hope you get more subscribers you deserve it bro. Keep that energy

I'm eager to try out one of their new 4 paddle controllers. I actually really liked Hexgaming's 4 paddle DS4 controller even though you couldn't really actuate all 4 buttons at the same time either, but I found myself using 2 fingers and swapping back and forth between the 4 rear buttons and it actually works extremely well now that I'm used to it.

[albatross]

Never mind the two paddle + two button design, offering a 6 month vs Aim's lifetime warranty is a deal breaker. Thanks for staying true, enjoyed the review!

[TheBrownbear]

So out of all the controller reviews I've watched on this channel and its been A LOT. I have to say this one always stuck out to me. Gave it a shot. I brought the pre built on amazon based on amazons support and also prime. I've waited months before with scuf controllers(also not a fan of the paddles PS4/5). NOPE!). not for me. my hex ultimate showed up in 2 days. have about 2 hrs on it and man I'm in love. like you said its a main 2 paddle controller with 2 extra buttons. the feel of the metal clicky buttons are so satisfying. the other 2 buttons are just fine to me. no they are not clicky but the feel is fine with me. All very easy to reach/comfortable. The tactical triggers feel as good if not better than my scuf triggers. WHEN they worked(lasted 2 months!) only con as of right now with only 2hrs of play is the buttons (Circle Cross Triangle Square) are just a tad more sallow. D pad is good. All work just as my stock ps5 controller. Just not as tall. Thank you again for always bringing the in depth reviews.

I’m so tired of going back to YOUR videos I subbed! Lol nice job.

[JJNEXUS]

Here’s what I think about the two paddle two button idea. in most situations, you can’t press all face buttons at once the back buttons shouldn’t have to be different being able to press them all at once may be more efficient, but either way you’re still getting the same job done just slightly more convenient not having to move your right thumb.

Love your videos they so funny and entertaining and informative

[i_am_steevo]

Like your channel but when you describe the controllers not having and needing adaptive triggers for better gaming for all the new titles coming up you are 100% correct my good man! these controllers you are reviewing with back buttons~paddles are all meant to be used for shooter games of course. Thats why scuff has diff options now but still, anyone needing extra paddles has to be for competitive shooters really

[Yougotdollarsbro]

I went with Defy Gaming, the front face mouse click buttons are love!

[bobgrimes]

Your custom case Aurora looks so DAMNED sweet!

[jeffsears]

Just to add to the "reachability " of the paddles.. I have the extreme rate setup, but I've got large ish hands, so my fingertips rest on the button, and my first knuckle hits the paddle, so, for me, it's quite nice. But thanks for the video, it was informative, I may pick one of these up as a second to pair with my extreme rate version.

[NfiniteRage]

I have an aim controller and I dont use my ring fingers to cover all 4 paddles. I use my middle finger to cover all 4 paddles. I use the middle of my moddle finger to graze the top paddles and tips of my middle finger to tap the bottom paddles.

[ayyooojett]

Dam bro new sub I could listen to you all day lol
I was gonna grab the hex
But I’m still on edge with scuff fps or aim 😭😭😭

[carlitos]

came in for the review, stayed for the hilarious commentary lol

[Mark-mupj]

Good video, been thinking about getting one because the design's.

[Desrt__]

I would be interested to incorporate a foot paddle system to use as extra paddles might be interesting to try.

[ryanaldana]

I ordered the new Aim Pro Controller, and all I can say is that it’s 100% worth it

[petterblade]

Paddle design that’s perfect in my opinion Xbox elite 2 is perfect for my hands

[bluesy]

Ordered the AIM controller PS5 with the 4 paddles. It's great. Only joke is it's all about AIM U.S. The controller was modded in Poland. That's right Poland and was shipped to me by DHL to Canada. Stupid shipping charge and then got screwed by DHL over $50 for customs clearance. Oh well if you're going to pay over 3 times the price to try and improve at FPS games I guess you can't complain. But I could have just played claw and saved my money.

I just got my hex gaming controller yesterday and I absolutely love it thank you for the recommendation
