Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Using them with a rpi 3. I don't have to use the l and r shoulder * to navigate kodi and nes games, which was cumbersome. Works just fine on windows 10 with no special software or drivers needed. It locks a lot like snes controllers but has the conven...  Read More

They feel good. They have decent range. Easy to pair. I keep it all in a cabinet near my tv with the cabinet doors closed.

L and r * are stiff/springy but i'm hoping they'll loosen up after time. No issues. No sticky d-pad issues.



Cons

The game pad has 8 * not 13. Just a d pad. I have no idea what the big clunky plug is but i have nothing that it can plug into.

Highlights

Quality


Perfect for my arcade simulator and good wireless range


Great retro feel, quick response & my batteries have yet to need a recharge.


Buttons respond very well when selected, no lag, and battery life has lasted nearly a week so far with no additional charging!


The instruction says to press and hold the power button however that does not power off the remote.

Price


The ibuffalo controllers where about $15 on a sale, so for these at 2 for $25 i feel these are a great price.


For the price, these controllers are excellent.


I didn’t believe it was going to be anything other than cheap.


For the price, you get what you pay for.

Packaging/appearance


Also beware that there was a card inside of the boxes that say "warning: cancer and reproductive harm".


Wasn't the button colors i ordered as i got two purples and thought i'd get one purple one multicolor.

Competitiveness


Excellent value for two - way cheaper than the popular brand name one (which is $40 for one).


Compared to the ibuffalo controllers of yesteryear they are much better and wireless.


Overall they aren't bad there are just better options at of course a higher price.
