SF30 Pro: A fantastic rendition of a classic design, adapted for modern gaming.
Pros:
- Analog-sticks with buttons and trigger buttons expand compatibility to most game genres.
- Bluetooth functionality is great with imperceptible delay, providing your device maintains a good Bluetooth connection.
- Can be used in wired mode via the provided USB cable for the lowest possible delay.
- Buttons are affirmative and tactile with just the right amount of required force and little travel-time.
- Jam packed with features and functionality, including rumble, motion controls and the ability to work with practically anything with a Bluetooth receiver or USB port.
- Good ergonomics and weight.
- On-going firmware support via a Windows/Mac-OS application.
- Long lasting battery charge.
Cons:
- Positioning of trigger buttons and analog-sticks may take getting some used to, particularly if you have larger hands.
- Tactility and feel of the buttons, while great, aren't identical to the original SNES controller, which may be a concern for purists.
- At £35-40, the price may be prohibitive but in my opinion, the price is certainly justified. An absolute steal if you can find it on sale.
Notes:
The SF30 Pro is one of 3 variants of the same design, alongside the "SN30 Pro SN" and "SN30 Pro G Classic". If you'd prefer a different look or are struggling to find a particular model in-stock, consider one of the others.
