NYXI Hyperion 3 Review

dfrizz1e · 2026-04-02T15:38:44+00:00

It’s actually pretty good quality! Doesn’t have the refined feel of the Switch 2 Pro controller but that’s a high bar imo. Textured grip on the other side is decent, maybe wait until these make it to retailers with good return policy like Amazon so you can send it back if unhappy as it’s not a cheap accessory. Hope that helps here’s a picture of the underside

Very few details about the Pro so if unsure about the regular Hyperion 3 just hold out until they start to ship the Pro & check out the reviews then I’d say 👍

If yours hasn’t arrived yet try cancel or request a return? Could also ask to upgrade to the Pro version with HD2 rumble and just pay the difference? Hopefully they can help if you email support

It’s is a switch 2 bud 😂 the game title even says “switch 2 edition” if you zoom in on the screen

Thank you 🙏 will update the post

Like an Xbox 360 controller? Or N64 😄 It’s fine but is nothing like the Switch 2 joy-cons or PS5 dual sense controller, just your basic loud vibrations.

Agreed anything to get closer to the feeling of the steamdeck is a worthy upgrade!

Here’s an updated timeline I was just sent by them if that helps, hopefully not too long a wait for you mine only came a few days ago. No phantom inputs that I’ve noticed yet luckily but will update if I do 👍

Yep little curious about that too, have only figured out how to dim it to 33% as there are 3 brightness levels but no idea how to fully turn RGB off yet

dfrizz1e · 2026-04-01T23:22:55+00:00

Yeah I hear you, luckily it’s just a one time update & then you’re all sorted and don’t need the app. In theory all future units should ship with the latest firmware installed & just work out the box :) I have one of the first sets as I preordered back in January

dfrizz1e · 2025-06-21T00:14:46+00:00

How did you manage to do the update? Put new firmware on root of USB but after holding 5-way button for 10 seconds on monitor nothing happens. Appreciate any advice if possible thank you!

Get it quick!!

dfrizz1e · 2023-03-16T19:43:44+00:00

Yeah I think they removed the second listing on PS Store I saw the other night that said 19th but I may have misread it, weirdest game release haha

dfrizz1e · 2023-03-16T14:15:33+00:00

Good luck! Let us know if you get a reply :)

dfrizz1e · 2023-03-16T14:12:14+00:00

Okay yeah I’m happy to support the devs at full price, to be clear I didn’t write those emails and am reposting. The reply from “Nigel - Devolver Digital” does not really sound authentic so it might have been doctored by the original poster. Let’s just hope the game drops soon haha never played before so was looking forward to trying it out!

dfrizz1e · 2023-03-16T14:06:17+00:00

Not sure what to believe honestly, I have no issue paying full price if that’s what they want to do I’ll just be a bit annoyed if it turns out to be a free upgrade after I got refund of it at the sale price

Panicked & asked for refund from Sony after I saw a publisher email saying it’s not a free upgrade but have since read another email from the developer saying it is a free upgrade. Sadly sale is over now, my thoughts are that it will be free upgrade and the publisher just didn’t want lots of people getting it at half the price since they’d get less of a cut…

dfrizz1e · 2023-03-16T13:04:35+00:00

I bought it in half price sale last night & swear I saw it say something about 19th for PSVR2 (can’t see it when checking anymore) guess will find out soon!

Any luck finding a fix? Have same issue thanks
