Some values for reference: XBOX Controller have a polling rate of 125 Hz but skips one entry every second (I don't know why but this shouldn't really be a problem). I reported this many times to 8bitdo for them to just let my support ticket expire every single time without answer and never fix it. The update pattern is 2 dummy package and 1 real data package. Over USB all data updates twice as fast with dummy packages around 1 to 2ms and a real data package around 15ms (the actual update rate was calculed to be around 66 Hz. Over bt it have a lot of dummy packages around 3 to 5 ms and an actual data pacage around 33ms (this makes this gamepad updates it's input around 30 Hz. Input delay: SN30 pro+ have horrible input delay. So a comparison with something known like a largely used gamepad like DS4 or XBOX Controller must be used as reference. This is not absolute like input delay as it depends on the user setup. This measures time from button press to action on screen. This can't be done on consoles but as every gamepad nowadays can be connected to PC, this must be measured. It's very important this does not have jitter as it'll ruin experience. The impact in the high latency was imediate so I went measure it and found astounishing bad results.įor a good gamepad review you need to measure at least these behaviors: While I used at the time (and now) the awesome DS4 as main gamepad for everything that can be used with, I wanted a gamepad that was more friendly to remember which mode was connected to. As no gamepad reviewer measures actual latency and just limit itself to report one's own perception of the product I must say that this misleading type of non cientific review deceaved me greatly.
