You don't need to break the bank for your next gamepad thanks to this stunning wireless PC controller deal on Amazon right now. The Gamesir Super Nova just hit its lowest ever price of $44.99 on Amazon, and it's a great alternative to the mega-expensive premium controllers currently floating around the market.
The Gamesir Super Nova has everything it needs, on paper, to be one of the best PC controller options available, and our review is forthcoming. Whether it's the implementation of Hall Effect thumbsticks and triggers, the customizable faceplates and adjustable face buttons, or the 1,000Hz polling rate, which ensures peak responsiveness in games, the Super Nova is packing some incredible features for its price.
Starting with the customization, the Super Nova has a magnetic face plate with blue/black and pink/white gradients available. Separate faceplates can be purchased, and they're super easy to switch out within seconds. When the faceplate is removed, you can also switch around the ABXY face button layout to mimic a Nintendo layout, or whatever combination suits your preference.
The Super Nova also comes with a handy charging base to keep the 1,000mAh battery topped up between sessions. Thanks to the inclusion of both a USB-C and USB-A port on the rear of the base, you can connect it to power and connect the 2.4GHz receiver to the base, rather than taking up two ports on your gaming PC. Bluetooth and wired connections are also supported.
As has become the new norm, both the triggers and thumbsticks are Hall Effect, which in theory should ensure these controls effectively never wear out and develop issues such as stick drift. I've been using a Super Nova for a few months now and have had no issues with any aspect of its design so far. The triggers are also two-stage, which can be activated with the flick of a switch on the rear of the controller. A hair trigger mode can also be activated using a specific controller input.
Other features include six-axis gyro support, customizable RGB lighting, software support through a desktop and mobile app, and further compatibility beyond PC, with the Nintendo Switch and new Switch 2 supported, as well as iOS and Android smartphones.
All of this comes in a controller that has an MSRP of $59.99 on Amazon, which is already a great price, but right now you can save $15 and bag either model for just $44.99, and you can buy yours using this link.
