This is a fantastic review and the production value is absolutely insane! This definitely helped me decide on grabbing the R16 after previously falling in love with leverless with the G16 and wanting a bigger controller for lap play. Amazing work!
Thank you so much I’m glad you found it helpful. Just got a G16 myself and I’m loving it, the R16 is defs the way to go for lap play. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do man
I appreciate you bro thanks for the positivity. I’m relatively new in the controller review community but I’ve been making content for a long time. Thanks for being here!
The R16 is gonna be my first leverless, finally wanna step up my game with fighters. It arrives tomorrow and I’m excited for it, thanks for the review!
@@boyneeto Thanks so much, got it and I am loving it so far!! Also checked out your customization video which was great! Already ordered myself some art for it, haha.
I bought the Haute G16 when Tekken dropped and loved that learning experience. And then I got the Haute B16 when Multiversus dropped an loved leverless even more. If that left pinky button could magically appear on my devices, I'd be madly in love.
I couldn’t agree more, it makes so much sense both in design and ergonomics. My left pinky still does the sipping tea lift but I’m finding myself use it more now
Really good review. This controller is sold by multiple different companies so I don't know which one is best. I'm just speculating but I think they're bought from the same warehouse and rebranded by each company, even the little screen is the same.
Yeah if you buy it on Amazon I think they factor in fees and whatnot for having a shop there but the official one is one Aliexpress, they don’t take too long to ship either
Man. I had just started my own box right before Haute began releasing these controllers. I started following TheTrain and how the GP2040-CE project was coming along. These controllers are freaking awesome, and make Leverless so much cheaper than other options on the market.
May I ask what firmware you’re on and if there were any settings in particular you did? I’m pretty sure I had it setup correctly. Sometimes I would play for hours and it’d be great, others it would time out mid sesh. Please lmk!
the layout is close to perfection. If only the made the 2nd up button as the button just above right button and be assigned as left then we can have best of both sides of p1 and p2. we should have 2 pairs of back and forward buttons. especially for tekken who plays electric wind godfists is almost impossible on P2 side but with a 2nd set of directions, it can be possible. Please Haute42 make this change! we don't need an extra up button just for the sake of WASD but instead put that W button just above right direction button so we could map it to left direciton.
YEEESSSSS FINALLY! I was so anxious for this video About the Magic Boots dongle, does the dongle angles or tilts when used on a desk? I wonder cause they just launched the Cosmox PS5 dongle, which is very compact Edit 2: BRÖTHER, that Morrigan wallpaper
I gotchu! The dongle is very compact and doesn’t angle or tilt at all! I did see the Booter 5 they just released as well, it might be worth picking up if they made it specifically for Haute42 controllers. AND LOL IM GLAD YOU NOTICED, it’s actually Soda from Nikke 😭
Great review man it made me buy this controller. I can also confirm that if you have a wingman fgc it doesn't time out at all. I plug the cable to the wingman and than the wingman into ps5.
11/10 Review Brother! Cons and Pros easy to understand. Doesn't feel robotic or generic, straight Vibes all the way through. After you next video, can you make one thats like a tutorial to learning how to play on that style? I've always wanted to try to understand it. ALSO, how does it handle in menus?
I appreciate you man thanks for always being a real one ✌️ I’ve also been scripting a full leverless guide if that’s what you’re looking for! Menus might be confusing for some as the up button is below the down button but I’ve been playing on hitbox for so long it’s second nature now
I'm using the T16 with magic boots and I dont have problems with the time out. Also i'm in the lastest version (v0.7.9) The settings that i use to make it work are: Current Input Mode: PS5 Authentication Settings: Host USB And finally at the top right select "arcade stick"
I’ve been eyeing this company since they emerged but wanted to see how they will be received over time and to no surprise it went well! Every product they have puts my 200$ Micro to shame while being more then half cheaper and also having better form factor and build this is actually insane. The junk food crew were smart to over price their stuff when there was no alternatives but now? I ordered an R16 yesterday, Hope I’ll like it! Always preferred arcade style and feel, With the Rims hopefully it will be the case :D
the hitbox / leverless scene has seriously evolved in the past couple years there's so much innovation nowadays. hope you enjoy the R16 as much as I do, you'll be surprised how close the rims feel to actual arcade buttons
@@boyneeto Thank you man, Much appriciated and great video! Do you happen to have any recommendations of a place to order a foam pad for it? Preferably one I can even choose to etch and choose the color of the foam since I will be making art for it. And maybe a case or even a sleeve, i'm just wondering since I didn't see them offer any of those on their shop so im assuming I need to find a work around like I did with my Micro.
@@mahkeemdehmah10boo87if you’re asking about bottom foam for it to slip less, search up “Non-Abrasive Grip Tape” I’ve seen a transparent version as well by LifeGrip that looks p good (might cop) as for a sleeve or case it’s the same dimensions as a 11-12 inch laptop so you can p much see which ones suit you the most.

Great review Neeto! It looks like a great controller but the connectivity issues revolving around the PS5 immediately make it a no go for me. Stuck between picking up a Kitsune or Overdrive.
PLEASE BEWARE I’ve had 3 Haute 42 T16s, these controllers are very very badly made regarding their ports. They very easily get loose and have to order a new one. I’d rethink getting haute 42
Legit! I have a video on my channel for my modern controls for leverless, hasn’t changed but added what I mentioned in this video. Thanks for watching!
Not that this will help at tournaments but I was having the same issue on Ps5 with it just stopped working. I tried many things like updating and what not. Finally spoke with haute discord and found out plugging my adapter directly into the ps5 then the leverless into that solved the issue completely.
not weird at all! im not a mk player so i can't really speak from experience but the pink button is remappable so you can p much do whatever you want with it. it might be different if you're used to using your right hand to block, the lower button beside the up button might be better
my guy u need to make a tutorial on how u move so clean on both p1 and p2 side. im literally slwing down ur vid trying to recreate ur hands cause i never thought about kbding that way before and no one has shown it on youtube that way.
I could probably do a quick tutorial sometime, tbh KBD was the first thing I learned playing T7 😂 I’d like practice it every day until it was smooth. just get used to flicking your fingers and then add the opposite direction for the SOCD. You’re not pressing the buttons btw you’re like flicking the edge
I just got a T16 i wish i jad seen this before ordering. I would have probably gone with this over the T16 because i like the button layout more and i wanna feel those buttons with the rims.
I got mine in April. It is comfortable to use but after three months of regular use the usb out port has been giving me issues. It feels looser than before and will only work now with my newer usb c cables that connect nice and firmly to it This is apparently not an uncommon problem after I did some digging online for help. So be aware if you're thinking about getting one.
double check your settings for sure you gotta make sure to disable PS4 Mode and enable the PS Passthrough. otherwise it should be plug in play if you're connecting direct to your ps5
Anyone know how to invert the y-axis for ps5? I ended buying the controller after this review, it’s sick but I feel like the inversion might feel more natural. Thanks
Never thought about doing this but I’d assume it’d be easy to do in the web configuration via pin remapping, go to the haute42 discord and there’s outta be a guide there for ya
@@boyneeto nicee, okay so now im between getting the r16 and the b16, the keyboard layout looks fye to me but the r16 is bigger so idk. i have small hands and this would be my first controller i play on pad
@@1edixo so I actually have some B16 experience from a tournament I recently went to, its interesting. the L3 and R3 locations are kinda weird but if you prefer a more compact controller I'd go for it (double check the prices tho whichever suits you the most) ill make a community post today and see if anyone else has opinions. R16 is a solid choice imo
ive gotten used to kbd's on the T16 without rims but the rims look very intriguing would you say it would make a difference? i pretty much slide over the buttons
T16 buttons are all 30mm so it’ll be a different experience as your fingers are more spaced out. R16 is 24mm and the rim hits your fingertips before the panel, it’s hard to describe but it makes a lot of difference imo
@@boyneeto hmm let me ask like this then how different is the "kbd-cheesing" with SOCD compared to the T16 if you do own both? sorry if this is super specific but thats my only question. edit: I think you are doing it at 6:34 - I hope its as easy as it is on the T16 as i've gotten super accustomed to it.
@@synqFPSI don’t own a T16 but I had the chance to try out my friends on Tekken. Personally, since I’m used to 24mm buttons it was lowkey awkward to use (and kbd) just because of the spacing. Wasn’t aware it was called KBD CHEESING 😂 I’ve just always done it like that tbh
@@boyneeto theres no real term for it lmao, thanks for your helpful insight tho i very much appreciate it. Sounds like the rims dont make a difference then.
T16 has bigger buttons and no rims, also different switches (just reds) my friend owns a T16 and I couldn’t get over how big the buttons were it was kinda weird - I’ll make a community post rn
Nope doesn’t make the controller wireless, just makes it so it’s able to play on PS5. Normally there’s an 8 minute timeout but the adapter acts as a bypass
How do you like an extra button for left pinkie? Do you use those extra buttons at all? Do buttons rings add something? Or is it just another "nice to have" feature? I'm choosing between R16, S16 and P12.
@@such-ej I really think the pinky button will be standard soon for future controls, it’s very useful. The rings make it feel more like arcade buttons instead of regular flatbox buttons, I really like them but it’s personal preference. Pick what you think would suit you!
Do you own one? I heard there’s lag when using it normally - hoping Brook competes and makes a smaller adapter for these external ports bc the big ones really hang out of the controller
Pretty standard but I’m weird and play inverted (2,1,4,3) I map 1+2 and 3+4 on R1 and R2, 1+4 on L1 and 2+3 on L2. Like the video I’m still using L3 as taunt and R3 as ki charge
I have 2 of them used with a mayflash magic boot. Latest update on both with the good settings (arcade stick) the 1rst one wotked well on PS5 for some weeks. But now on both I have random disconnections. It can work perfectly well during hours but I still have random disconections sooner or later. No clear rule or reason why it works or not... I don't undertand why... 😭 Really a shame because the quality of the controller is realky good.
Thank you so much for sharing! Looking into a workaround and lots of people are just saying it’s the adapter itself, might have to look into getting a Booter 5
I see a lot of good reviews on these controllers but the amount of extra buttons makes me feel like I’ll fuck up and press them instead of the intended one
It’s actually not difficult at all, but takes adjustment if you’re use to standard hitbox layout. You kinda have to train your brain to make use of the extra buttons
@@boyneeto I think so, if you can rebind the buttons for the game? In D4 it has W, A, S,D for movement, so if this leverless controller let you rebind the buttons than i think it's possible.
i can't speak from actual experience but it depends if you're on a budget and want the additional buttons and rims feel. the kitsune also works on PS5 and PC out of the box so if price isnt an option and you don't want to think about other features it might be the one for you. hope that helps!
Thanks for the review, I bought this leverless about a week ago and was surprised no one was talking about it.
It did just release so I think people were on the fence, it’s a great leverless. Hope you’re enjoying it!

@@boyneeto hmm let me ask like this then how different is the "kbd-cheesing" with SOCD compared to the T16 if you do own both? sorry if this is super specific but thats my only question. edit: I think you are doing it at 6:34 - I hope its as easy as it is on the T16 as i've gotten super accustomed to it.
@@synqFPSI don’t own a T16 but I had the chance to try out my friends on Tekken. Personally, since I’m used to 24mm buttons it was lowkey awkward to use (and kbd) just because of the spacing. Wasn’t aware it was called KBD CHEESING 😂 I’ve just always done it like that tbh
@@boyneeto theres no real term for it lmao, thanks for your helpful insight tho i very much appreciate it. Sounds like the rims dont make a difference then.
How is this different from the T16 available on Amazon?
T16 has bigger buttons and no rims, also different switches (just reds) my friend owns a T16 and I couldn’t get over how big the buttons were it was kinda weird - I’ll make a community post rn
Just made the post, it’s the T13 mb
@@boyneeto Good to know. I’ve got small hands so the size and spacing on the T version would be a dealbreaker for me
Can you map left/right direction input to the extra buttons? Thanks in advance.
@Zevaeros put out a very thorough GP2040-CE remapping tutorial check it out!
Why do you say the booter 5 dongle looks way cooler than the mayflash?
It’s nice and matches the overall aesthetic of the controller
So I'm confused as to what the adapter does. Does it make the controller wireless for ps5 or what?
It's to pass the 8 minute timeout
Nope doesn’t make the controller wireless, just makes it so it’s able to play on PS5. Normally there’s an 8 minute timeout but the adapter acts as a bypass

Can you use a Brooks converter to play it on ps5 instead of the magic boots or Cosmox booter 5?
absolutely, the good thing about the brooks adapter is you can either put it on the side of the controller or direct in the ps5
@@boyneeto sweet! Thanks for the response, I think I’m sold now haha
got both r16 and s16, liked s16 better because im playing on desktop but i guess for everyone different sizes
Love how small the s16 is, Lowkey looking into getting a G16
How do you like an extra button for left pinkie? Do you use those extra buttons at all? Do buttons rings add something? Or is it just another "nice to have" feature? I'm choosing between R16, S16 and P12.
@@such-ej I really think the pinky button will be standard soon for future controls, it’s very useful. The rings make it feel more like arcade buttons instead of regular flatbox buttons, I really like them but it’s personal preference. Pick what you think would suit you!
You have to cop the new brook converter
Do you own one? I heard there’s lag when using it normally - hoping Brook competes and makes a smaller adapter for these external ports bc the big ones really hang out of the controller
@@boyneeto yeah it doesn't have delay at all just have to make sure your firmware is updated.
Would it work on the ps5 using a brook wingman?
Yes
Any TLDR difference between T16 and R16? It can get really confusing. Is it just the rims? And which one do you recommend?
T16 buttons are all 30mm buttons, R16 buttons are smaller (24mm) - I’ve tried both but the R16 feels much better to play on imo
@@boyneeto based on what you've showed I feel like getting the R16 too!
What is your tekken 8 button mapping for the leverless?
Pretty standard but I’m weird and play inverted (2,1,4,3) I map 1+2 and 3+4 on R1 and R2, 1+4 on L1 and 2+3 on L2. Like the video I’m still using L3 as taunt and R3 as ki charge
@@boyneeto preciate it 🤝🏽
I have 2 of them used with a mayflash magic boot. Latest update on both with the good settings (arcade stick) the 1rst one wotked well on PS5 for some weeks. But now on both I have random disconnections. It can work perfectly well during hours but I still have random disconections sooner or later. No clear rule or reason why it works or not... I don't undertand why... 😭 Really a shame because the quality of the controller is realky good.
Thank you so much for sharing! Looking into a workaround and lots of people are just saying it’s the adapter itself, might have to look into getting a Booter 5
@@boyneeto many thx for your reply. Yes. Let's hope that a new adapter will work properly in the future. 😀
I see a lot of good reviews on these controllers but the amount of extra buttons makes me feel like I’ll fuck up and press them instead of the intended one
It’s actually not difficult at all, but takes adjustment if you’re use to standard hitbox layout. You kinda have to train your brain to make use of the extra buttons
@@boyneeto fair enough, I’m slightly interested.
Can this work on Xbox with an adapter?
Yup, Brook just released the XB3 adapter which works on XBox One/S/X
@@boyneeto perfect!
I’m from UK hoping to buy a hitbox for Xbox which has proved challenging 😂
Appreciate your comment and vid :)
Anyone tried this for Diablo 4? thx
is that even possible?
@@boyneeto I think so, if you can rebind the buttons for the game? In D4 it has W, A, S,D for movement, so if this leverless controller let you rebind the buttons than i think it's possible.
@@Viettzz thats crazy! i've never played Diablo so i wouldn't know but there is a keyboard mode which im sure you can bind in game
This controller doesn’t work on ps4
make sure you're holding the right button when you plug it in, it's Y or △ for PS4. hope that helps!
sounds thumpy! definitely on my list to purchase
Very smooth, lmk how you like it when you cop ✌️
wasd pronounced wasid? What! Waas-dee.
I asked a few friends and they all say "wasid" so that's what I've been pronouncing it as. but really its whatever dude haha
FIRST🥇
Is this better than the Razer Kitsune?
i can't speak from actual experience but it depends if you're on a budget and want the additional buttons and rims feel. the kitsune also works on PS5 and PC out of the box so if price isnt an option and you don't want to think about other features it might be the one for you. hope that helps!
