My Personal Fidget Tier List (with reviews)

  1. Aura Sand Slim: It's so popular for a reason. My most expensive fidget, but it's really worth it. The best word I'd use to describe the action is "bouncy." Just the right amount of haptic feedback without being too loud. Surprisingly durable. I've had a few bad drops with it and it's still unblemished.
  2. Juzhedc Advanced: Really great slider. Best bang for your buck right now for sure. I love the way the plates cover the whole bottom and wrap around the sides; it gives it a great action. Super fun to use. Nice configuration with how it's put together, very easy to swap things out and adjust.
  3. Bright Blood EDC Creation: This might be my favorite slider. I love that it's so quiet, so small, and just fits my fingers perfectly. It kinda feels like a magic trick being able to flip it around with such little material. I modified mine a bit, using one half of two different colors and swapping magnets around so I have double stainless steel plates, which I think the bit of extra metal helps it flip around better. [EDIT] I forgot that it wasn't quiet out of the box, in fact it was way too crunchy and loud. I put a bit of blue tack inside and now it's perfect.
  4. MetalToys DZ Top-D: This slider is my first true love in the fidget world. I love the action, love how many different ways you can use it, love that it feels like a tool.
  5. HubbleCraftEDC Slider: Really excellent slider. Because it's so durable, it's the one that I most frequently have with me, and the one I have probably spent the most time playing with. The grippy texture gets a little dirty at times, but it's really nice to have something to push against. One note is that I modified mine by using an orbital sander to take about 1/32" of plastic from the faces of the fidget. At first the magnets were too weak for me to use, but taking that little bit of material off made a huge difference.
  6. Novel Cary Mini Tile: I really like this guy. The square size limits how many moves you can do, but flipping it around feels awesome. I have heard they are coming out with metal plates for this, which I think will bump it up to S
  7. Three Body Cube Spinner: My first spinner since the early craze 10 years ago, and I love it. The different functions are all great and work together well.African Wenge Slider No Brand — Extremely loud, so it's something I can only use in limited situations. But the clack of the wood is a special sensation. It's really nice to let yourself be annoying and make a lot of noise. I recently added tape to one side and it works much better.

  9. No Name Slider from Aliexpress: Just a cheapo nothing slider, but it actually works very well. The store I bought it from doesn't exist anymore, but I think it was $5? It's kind of an Aura Sand dupe, and I'd say it's a perfect starter slider. Great to use while walking around because if you drop it on pavement, who cares.
  10. GAO Owl: I want to love this guy because I am a girl who loves multi-functional fidgets, but it just isn't quite there. The magnets kind of work against themselves, stopping it from spinning freely, but there's not enough snap to mimic a mechanical slider. I still do like fudging around with it, and the clicky eyes are nice. Make sure to get one with the clicky eyes if you pick it up; a lot of dupe versions don't click.
  11. No Name Spinner Ring from Amazon: Doesn't work that well, but still pretty nice to have. The most discrete fidget I have by far, and it does the job.
  12. BrickClickStudio Haptic Fidget: It sucks that I don't really care for this fidget because it's a super cool mechanism. There's a little piston inside that snaps magnets into place, giving a nice bit of feedback. I think the weight of the 3D-printed parts is too light for it to work at its best. I also just don't love haptic coins.
  13. The Thinket: This is my OG premium fidget, I bought it over 10 years ago. In some ways it's great: it's super heavy duty and has a nice action, but I just don't like using it very much. Nice artifact to have, but not so fun.

Curious what the current gold standard for ps2 emulation is?

Hello!

I have been checked out of this scene for a while, and was wondering if any new devices have popped up that can handle the ps2 / dreamcast / n64 era well? I'm looking for something compact, horizontal, doesn't need to do anything modern or crazy. It seems like the ayn thor has really taken over this sub but I think that's more device than I necessarily want. Thanks!
