The screen size is moot since after you manage all the settings to where you want them, it's rare you will ever touch it again.

I love and have used the CompuShift controllers in the past, but wow, they are more expensive, like by $200 or so. If money were no object, that would be the go-to. Not sure I would care for the Bluetooth feature, I kinda don't see that as a feature that is useful, since it's the set-it-and-forget-it kinda thing. Maybe if I tried it, I dunno...

.

Where I would see the benefits of the bluetooth (depending on the controller being compared) would be:
-use of touch screen for the initial setup (as opposed to toggling with arrow keys to select parameters and values)
-good resolution (as opposed to 90's LCD-quality displays)
-not being wire (mount/hold where-ever)
-and you could to a screen capture to datalog.


Looks like TCI also has wireless now available at least as an option.
