If there's one thing I'm sure of this November, it's that there will be some great Black Friday controller deals going around. It's going to still be tough to get full systems, graphics cards, and especially memory and storage at big discounts, but there will be peripherals going for a song. That's particular exciting because things have been changing in controllers over the past year, and previous models are still quality, but will likely have big discounts attached to them.

When it comes to the key high-end technology of today, such as TMR sticks and Hall effect triggers, that isn't necessarily the preserve of the super-premium $200 controllers. Companies such as GameSir and Easy SMX have brought these features down into the mainstream and you can find some of the best PC controllers sporting them for bargain prices right now.

It's incredible to think you can spend so little and get a stick drift-resistant wireless controller that doesn't completely suck. Luckily for the GameSir Nova Lite, it does all of the above and manages to feel good and light in the hands, too.

We've already raved about Hall effect joysticks and how they spell the end for the dreaded stick drift. In this wireless gaming controller, they're a welcome feature, but this handful of gaming hardware packs a few quirky surprises too. For instance, there are extra bumper buttons.
