Hall-effect triggers provide nuanced pressure control that works especially well for racing and other analog-heavy games.
Pros: value for money, phone grip and fit
Cons: companion app quality, vibration quality
The Advanced wired model offers full trigger travel for controlled, precise metering before switching into its shorter hair-trigger mode.
Pros: overall satisfaction, value for money
Cons: premium feel, vibration quality
The Hall triggers make throttle, braking, and other pressure-sensitive inputs easy to meter consistently. Racing use is where this precision stands out most clearly.
Pros: overall satisfaction, value for money
Cons: wired performance, vibration quality
The full-range TMR triggers are excellent for nuanced analog control, especially throttle and braking in racing games. One tester found the feel less subtle than expected.
Pros: overall satisfaction, button quality
Cons: d-pad accuracy, charging dock support
The analog trigger mode provides controlled throttle, braking, and gradual inputs. Racing-oriented reviewers especially appreciate the ability to modulate pressure precisely.
Pros: overall satisfaction, button quality
Cons: vibration quality, compatibility with Xbox
One reviewer found the analog triggers precise enough for controlled throttle and braking movements.
Pros: value for money, charging dock support
Cons: d-pad feel, compatibility with Xbox
Dual-stage analog triggers are a major strength on compatible hardware, but platform limitations and large initial dead zones can keep them from behaving perfectly everywhere.
Pros: overall satisfaction, overall comfort
Cons: button quality, value for money
Analog trigger precision was generally strong, especially for racing throttle/brake control, though one reviewer found the default press less satisfying.
Pros: analog stick precision, software customization
Cons: value for money, companion app quality
The Hall Effect triggers were praised for controlled analog input, particularly when accelerating, braking, or making nuanced presses. Reviewers generally found them accurate and easy to modulate.
Pros: overall satisfaction, premium feel
Cons: compatibility with Xbox, d-pad feel
The analog triggers provide adjustable range and useful control for games that need graduated input. The short overall travel can make fine racing adjustments feel more demanding for some players.
Pros: overall satisfaction, charging dock support
Cons: button noise, 2.4GHz dongle performance
The analog triggers provide a broad, controllable range for racing and other pressure-sensitive actions. Reviewers especially like the nuanced throttle control when streaming console games.
Pros: overall satisfaction, overall comfort
Cons: phone grip and fit, durability
The analog triggers work, but the lack of Hall effect trigger sensors is a missed opportunity for better precision and long-term reliability.
Pros: overall satisfaction, customization depth
Cons: value for money, upgrade value
The triggers are digital rather than analog, which limits racing and pressure-sensitive control. Casual games are less affected.
Pros: overall satisfaction, value for money
Cons: d-pad accuracy, analog trigger precision
One Switch 1 customer was specifically disappointed that the controller lacks analog triggers, making it unsuitable for the use they had in mind.
Pros: overall satisfaction, design and aesthetics
Cons: Switch wake support, Start and Select button design
