First fightstick
This is my first fightstick and it came earlier than expected, thankful for that! The packaging was very minimal compared to the fightstick I bought for my girlfriend (8Bitdo SNES-style arcade stick); Just a cardboard box with bubble wrap packaging inside containing the hitbox, USB-C cord, instructions and additional accessories. Very easy to use once you read the instructions! It defaults into the Xbox/Windows/Steam profile so if you’re on that, it’s plug and play! If you’re on another device, I do recommend referring to the instructions. Functions great, buttons feel good after an hour or so of use, input feels solid. Construction is what you expect as the price point and thankfully not too much of a concern. Nothing came loose or broken but you can feel the acrylic cringe a bit if you bend the controller even slightly so I DON’T RECOMMEND THIS CONTROLLER IF YOU RAGE WHILE GAMING. Overall, solid controller for fighting games!

Great purchase to learn leverless
Very solid purchase and no issues with the buttons. Works on everything.

Perfect for Fast, Precise Button Action
The low-profile buttons are super responsive and comfortable, making gameplay smooth and precise. The build is solid for its size, though it’s a little flimsy since it’s so thin. Overall, perfect for fast button action and casual or competitive gaming

Good leverless controller
This leverless is good for starters. The only complaint I have is the travel on the buttons is a bit long so that can be an issue for some games, not really an issue for fighting games if that's what you want this for.

LED Lights on controllers are so freaking cool.
I received the Haute 42 Hautepad R16 relatively fast after I shipped it and man, it was pretty good. It has a pretty simple setup before getting the controller to work with your games. You might have to watch a (short) YT video about setting it up for your first time though as it comes with a piece of paper whose instructions leave a bit to be desired. After that (small) initial hurdle, you’re good to go. If you’re new to these type of controllers, keep in mind that they primarily work with 2D fighting games and if you try to get them to work with other genres of games (or even non 2D fighting games) you’ll either run into poor results/it not working at all. It’s decently heavy but not so heavy that you couldn’t carry it in a bag. Haute typically has smaller, lighter controllers if that’s more your speed. The Buttons are pretty responsive, not much delay between button press and action which is good. The LED monitor in the top left corner (and the LED buttons light up) perfectly displays what buttons you’re pressing. Also the LED lights are *chef’s kiss*. The design of it is slick and slim, pretty cool if ya ask me. I could definitely say it’s worth the price tag, but again if $100 is a money sink that you’re not willing to put forward, this same company has just as good options at lower price points [also might not have the cool LEDs :( ]

Surprisingly well-made and quick seller response
I hesitated about the purchase for its price. But I pulled the trigger right before my prime expires, which saved me 1/4 of the cost. It came to me in a plain plastic wrapped envelope with a brown cardboard box inside. But the pad itself and the keys are well made. I only connected it to my PC so far but the response is great and the feel is just there. I initially had some issues with its connection. The seller quickly responded to my inquiry and the issue was resolved. Things to improve: I do wish longer key strokes. They feel somewhat flimsy. I also wish it could be packaged better to avoid any possible shipping damage, though it did not occur to mine.

Great
Perfect for its price, really took me by surprise. switches are great, the buttons are great, the RGB is top notch, and the setup process is quite easy. One small issue though, the included extra switch came with bent/damaged pins rendering it useless, kinda sad about that but overall a great product. (PS: use the included rubber paddings as soon as yours arrives, really helps with minimizing sliding and prevents it from scratching your table)

came out of box broken
Black one broken. Right button is always pressed. However returned and got the white one. Apon asking in the discord. This vendor produces the Black one thus the removal of the Haute42 logo. While the company produced the White one.

All’inizi pensavo di aver buttato via dei soldi ma con un mesetto di pratica devo dire che è 10 volte superiore rispetto al pad. Ci vuole costanza ma ne varrà la pena, parlando invece del prodotto devo dire qualità TOP, super reattivo e restistente, ho avuto qualche difficoltà inizialmente con la configurazione a ps5 ma una volta sistemato il tutto funziona perfettamente. La consiglio a tutti

Fühlt sich absolut klasse an. Preis-Leistungs technisch absolut top. Man merkt dass am Gehäuse ein wenig gespart wurde aber ein „Manko“ das absolut nicht der Rede wert ist. Ich habe noch nicht die configurationsmöglichkeiten durchgeschaut aber da scheint es schon einiges zu geben. Klare Empfehlung!

Incredible leverless controller for the price, with great customization.

j'avais un stick arcade classique. Et bien j'avoue que le coté "boutton" pour la main gauche est un vrai + en terme de precision
K**S
It plays wonderfully, not too loud, nice space between left and right hand. I love the colour options. It makes the trickiest combos easier. No delays, great precision. Very Happy with it.
