No HD rumble ... does that mean no rumble at all?
Is there any use for IR when the controller is connected? Seems to me like you don't lose out, in this case [1]
I'm guessing it still has a USB-C at the bottom, so why not let it do video-out from a dock? Are there any savings in gutting that feature?

- menacingly 7y agoI assume the lack of video out is a deliberate crippling to differentiate the offerings and their purposes
- SmellyGeekBoy 7y agoAgreed. I also assume it will be modded back in within days of people getting their hands on these.
- opencl 7y agoI will be surprised if the signals are even physically routed to the USB port, no reason to do that and then disable it in software unless removing the feature was a last minute decision.
- EpicBlackCrayon 7y agoI'm hoping for this, but it could be USB 2.0 over the Type C connector, which is unfortunately a thing.
