| Connectivity Modes |
Wired via USB-C, 2.4 GHz wireless dongle, Bluetooth |
Lets you use it across devices (PC, Switch, mobile) with minimal latency or hassle. Wired/2.4 GHz is best for performance; Bluetooth for portability. |
| Polling Rate |
Up to 1,000 Hz over wired and 2.4 GHz wireless modes |
Very responsive; reduces input lag visible in fast-paced or competitive gaming. |

Hall effect joysticks & Hall effect analog triggers (with trigger stops) |
Hall effect tends to be more durable and resist drift; trigger stops let you shorten trigger travel (good for shooters). |

Mechanical circular D-pad (instead of standard membrane cross) |
For games that need precise directional input (platformers, fighting games) this is a big upgrade. |
| Back / Macro Buttons |
Two remappable back buttons (often called M1 / M2) to map extra functions or macros. |
Useful for advanced control, shortcuts, or competitive advantage. |
| Battery / Power |
Internal battery ~ 600 mAh; supports charging dock (Super Nova dock) though sold separately. |
Good capacity; dock compatibility adds convenience though adds cost. |
