MACHENIKE has officially launched its G5 Pro V3 gaming controller in China, featuring force-adjustable TMR sensor joysticks, Hall effect triggers, mechanical buttons, and additional controls for competitive gaming. The controller is available in two configurations, with the standalone model priced at 199 yuan (approximately $29.79), while the bundle costs 269 yuan (approximately $40.26) and includes additional features and a charging dock.
The MACHENIKE G5 Pro V3 uses a dual-mode trigger system that combines micro-switches with Hall effect sensors. It also includes two additional shoulder buttons and four rear buttons, giving players more options for assigning in-game controls. The primary function buttons use mechanical switches, while the ABXY buttons feature third-generation light-force micro-switches designed for responsive inputs.
The controller’s D-Pad supports 360-degree omnidirectional input, allowing directional commands across different angles. MACHENIKE has also integrated an H-bridge emergency stop asymmetric rotor grip motor, alongside a built-in 1,200mAh battery. However, the company has not provided detailed battery life figures or charging specifications in the announcement.
The G5 Pro V3 is available in different designs depending on the selected configuration. The standalone model features a semi-transparent exterior and comes in black and white color options. Meanwhile, the more expensive bundle is available in black/gold and white/gold finishes, featuring integrated RGB dot-matrix starlight lighting effects. The bundle also includes a trigger motor and charging dock.
With its adjustable TMR joysticks, Hall effect trigger system, mechanical buttons, and additional rear controls, the MACHENIKE G5 Pro V3 targets gamers looking for a feature-rich controller at a relatively low price. The company has currently announced Chinese pricing, with international availability and pricing yet to be confirmed.
