Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The controls and * are the same as the previous but the slider power button was removed. The ergonomic design helps with wrist tension. The only thing i don't like about these is the rubberized thumb controllers will wear down after a while.

Works great on ios but does sometimes disconnect. It's been great on all three of my iphone, ipad, and apple tv.



Cons

With this controller, it locks and is impossible to turn off. The only way to reset it per steelseries is to wait for the internal battery to die (which takes 5-6 days) and recharge. They say that if it's bricked and a light is still on, wait up to 50...  Read More

Left joystick is already broken. Also when the battery goes low, the stick drifts to. Had to return first one for left analog stick being stuck and drifting.

In summation this product needs to be taken off the market for false advertising. Companies like steelseries epitomize all that is wrong with business. They are dishonest and rude.

Despite numerous troubleshooting attempts, this macos / ios specific controller is unable to maintain a bt connection for longer then 1 - 2 minutes with my mac mini. It starts scanning bt again ad nauseam, even with the latest firmware installed.

The device is not in stock, and no info available on when it will be back in stock. They currently ship with outdated firmware. Jumped on amazon today to try to return it and literally missed the cutoff by one day.
