The GuliKit TT Max is the heftiest Switch 2 controller available, and Engadget gives it a 9 out of 10. It is wider, thicker and heavier than Nintendo's Pro Controller or the 8Bitdo Ultimate 2, and it feels designed to make PC, Xbox and PlayStation fans feel at home on the Switch 2. Its aligned, adjustable TMR thumbsticks, four removable back paddles, customizable floating D-pad and multiplatform support make it a versatile gamepad for serious play on the Switch 2 and beyond.
Compared with Switch 2 gamepads, the TT Max is a beast. In small hands it sits more like an Xbox pad than a Nintendo Pro Controller, though its aligned joysticks resemble a DualSense. The metal rear paddles, attached out of the box, press in with a satisfying click and make the controller feel even bigger than its chassis. The triggers flare upward and offer a switch between an ultra-smooth Hall effect pull and a digital click, while the textured grips and wide bumpers add to the tactile appeal. The TMR thumbsticks are super precise, with a slick glide and adjustable stepless tension.
The TT Max supports PC, Android, iOS, Switch and Switch 2, and its face buttons can be swapped between Nintendo and PC layouts on demand. The box includes an extra D-pad, a stick kit with two additional heights and a spare set of PC-style keycaps. The power-on sequence shakes the controller while RGB rings light up, and the lights double as sensitivity indicators, with pink for 50 percent, blue for 100 percent and green for 150 percent.
Haptics are the weak point. On Switch 2, the default HD vibration mode is pinpoint and rumbles well, but it produces a grinding noise noticeable even over the action of Resident Evil Requiem. Rotary mode is louder still. The proprietary maglev mode, the default for PC play, is the quietest and is the reviewer's favorite. The controller also pairs easily and reliably wakes the console with the home button. The TT Max is a strong choice for players with big hands, though it is not ideal for small hands.
