    Surprisingly Great!

    Genuinely pleased with how well it functions! I bought it because my previous controller for PC gaming started to drift badly. Controls are smooth and I have the option of USB-A wired and wireless connection. On top of that, it’s a great size and the colors are pretty!

    Best budget controller available with hall effect!

    Definitely the best controller I’ve purchased in a long time. Great value, great color choices, and the joysticks are also “hall effect” joysticks, which basically means they use magnets to prevent stick drift. Not even the Switch 1 & 2 Pro Controllers have that! Having hall effect joysticks for a $30 controller is incredible value. Haven’t had any issue with it thus far, so easy 5 stars.

    good hardware, good drivers

    I have used this heavily in since buying it and have experienced no problems whatsoever. This is good value for a $20 controller, and may be explained by the simplicity of a $20 piece of hardware removing extraneous features that could impede reliability. It is tangibly sturdy and barely reacted when I dropped it while it using it.

    Best cheap gamepad on market!

    It's a really, really great controller for PC and android. 2.4 hz dongle works perfectly with my laptop. Especially for its price - 30$ - it's a must-have. Low latency, Hall effect joysticks, light weight. In some ways, it's better than my $120 MS Xbox elite controller - no connection problems, and it really feels more comfy in my hands. It's my main controller now.
