This article summarizes controllers that can increase the polling rate up to 1000Hz when used with a PC. This article is recommended for those who are looking for a controller with a high polling rate or are wondering which one to buy.
Please note that this is limited to what I was able to find through my research, so it is not possible to introduce all controllers that can output 1000Hz.
RAZER WOLVERINE V3 available in wired and wireless versions
The "RAZER WOLVERINE V3" is a controller released by Razer, a well-known gaming device manufacturer. Even if you are hesitant to buy products from unfamiliar Chinese manufacturers, this one is probably less hesitant.
The RAZER WOLVERINE V3 comes in two models: the RAZER WOLVERINE V3 TOURNAMENT EDITION, which can only be used with a wired connection, and the RAZER WOLVERINE V3 PRO, which can be used both wired and wirelessly.
The specifications, such as the number and position of buttons on the main unit, are the same, but the difference is whether it can be used wirelessly and whether a carrying case for the main unit is included. There are four buttons on the back, and an additional button is attached next to each of the left and right trigger buttons. There is a big difference in price, with the "RAZER WOLVERINE V3 PRO" being significantly more expensive at 35,480 yen, while the "RAZER WOLVERINE V3 TOURNAMENT EDITION" is considerably cheaper at 17,480 yen. Unless you absolutely need to use it wirelessly, it is safe to buy the "RAZER WOLVERINE V3 TOURNAMENT EDITION".
"Horipad for Windows® PC" is a low-cost Japanese-made device
If you want something cheap and made in Japan, try the "Horipad for Windows® I think "PC" would be a good choice. It's very cheap at 4,980 yen, but it can achieve a polling rate of 1000Hz.
There are two buttons on the back, as well as a microphone mute button and a rapid-fire function. It can only be connected to a PC via wire, so it cannot be used wirelessly.
"Horipad for Windows® There are two types of models for PC, and the stick arrangement differs depending on the model. There is a straight type where the sticks are arranged horizontally like the PS4 and PS5 controllers, and a cross type where the sticks are arranged diagonally like the Switch and Xbox controllers.
I think the design and button feel are inferior to controllers from other manufacturers, but since the price is low it might be worth buying just to try it out.
"VADER4 PRO" with an additional button on the right side of the right stick
Next up is the "VADER4 PRO", which has two additional buttons on the right side of the right stick. Of course, in addition to those buttons, it also has four back buttons. The stroke of the left and right trigger buttons can also be changed. If you want a controller with more additional buttons, this might be the one to choose.
It also has a gyro sensor. It is compatible with the Switch, so it is also suitable for games such as Splatoon. However, please note that the polling rate can only be set to 1000Hz when connected to a PC.
As for the button next to the right stick, you probably won't have much opportunity to use it, but it's reasonably priced at 8,980 yen and can be used either wired or wirelessly.
"GameSir G7 SE" is popular for its Hall effect sensor
The GameSir G7 SE is a controller that has become a hot topic due to its low price and the fact that it is equipped with a stick that uses a hall effect sensor. It seems that more than 300 units have been purchased on Amazon in one month.
At the time of release, the polling rate could not be set to 1000Hz, but a firmware update made it possible to support 1000Hz. The design is very simple, with only two additional buttons on the back. It also has a 3.5mm audio jack for connecting earphones or headsets. The connection method is wired, and it can also be used with Xbox.
Although it can be purchased for around 6,500 yen, its appeal is that it is highly durable thanks to the stick that is less likely to drift.
"BIGBIG WON Rainbow 2 Pro" looks very Chinese
"BIGBIG WON Rainbow 2 Pro" is a controller made in China, and it looks like it's made in China. I think it's a product that many people don't like the look of, even if it has good performance. The price is about 9,000 yen.
The polling rate is 1000Hz when used with a wired connection, but when used wirelessly, it is only possible to output 200Hz, so you will need to use a wired connection.
There are two buttons on the back and two buttons next to the trigger button. It also has a trigger stop function that allows you to change the stroke of the trigger button. It also has a gyro sensor. The stick has no dead zone, so if you can master it, you will be able to operate more precisely.
summary
A high polling rate reduces delays and makes it easier to control the way you want to. Gaming mice with high polling rates are also popular, and there may be controllers that can output 1000Hz other than those introduced here by various manufacturers, so please look for them.
