Quality


It worked just fine, nice quality build, everything as expected, i loved it.


Light weight and simple to sync with multiple devices.


Therefor in theory it should work with bluetooth too but is broken.


Going to lead with my main complaint: this controller turns itself on *very* easily, even when i'm not using it.

Price


In the end, for the price, it's a good controller, but for a few bits of over missed marks, it's not perfect.

Competitiveness


Easy to connect and buttons feel good similar to the xbox controller.
