WHAT HAPPENED

GuliKit has announced the launch of its first wireless controller, the ES Max, which incorporates an upgraded version of the anti‑drift tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) thumbsticks that first appeared in the company’s budget ES Pro. The new controller is now available for $49.99, offering improved stick performance at a price lower than Nintendo’s Switch 2 Pro Controller.

According to The Verge, the ES Max’s TMR thumbsticks use a slightly different measurement method than those on the ES Pro, which debuted nearly a year ago. The controller is priced at $49.99, compared to $29.99 for the ES Pro, yet it remains cheaper than Nintendo’s higher‑end Switch 2 Pro Controller. The updated TMR technology aims to eliminate the stick‑drift problems that plagued earlier Switch models.

The ES Max represents GuliKit’s first foray into wireless gaming peripherals, building on the company’s reputation for affordable, high‑performance controllers. By addressing the drift issue while keeping the price competitive, the brand seeks to appeal to budget‑conscious gamers who value precision and longevity.

  • GuliKit releases ES Max wireless controller with improved TMR thumbsticks.
  • Price: $49.99, higher than the $29.99 ES Pro but lower than Nintendo’s Switch 2 Pro Controller.
  • New TMR design reduces stick drift without a complete technology overhaul.
