Works great with my iPhone 17 pro even with a case! Buttons are responsive and the joysticks are nice to use. Functionality wise it seems to be similar to the more expensive competition for a fraction of the price. I also enjoy the physical connection versus other similar controllers that use Bluetooth, however that can come down to personal preference. Only downside I can think of is that it does feel a bit cheap and some of the buttons can be a little noisy, but those issues don’t outweigh the value proposition in my opinion.

The best option if you are trying to use steam link to play in bed or just around on the house from your gaming pc to your ipad mini or bigger phones. I would recommend this over the bluetooth or wireleess version of itself that is $15 more or even their pro models. Hard connection is best no lag or latency when gaming.

Best option for on the go gaming!!! Or those who really dont have time and play on the actual gaming system. Great response time. Totally recommend. Easy to use and is as advertised.

I was looking for a simple mobile controller and this is definitely the best product for that. The build quality feels a bit on the cheaper side, but that’s the price you pay for. Connection is amazing, since it plus directly into the phone. No dead zone or input lap when playing a locally installed game. If you are like me and want a good and cheap mobile controller. You can’t go wrong with this is one. Only reason for 4 stars is because I don’t know well it will last over time. Used only for a few months.

I'm 42, been gaming since Mario Bros. On NES. This is just my opinion and it's as detailed as I can be. I have only played Destiny: Rising on my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. I like this little guy. For $30 it's pretty impressive. Can't say anything on longevity as I haven't had it long. The sticks feel good in terms of tension and movement. I would like them slightly longer. But the click isn't too stiff and it feels good. I think the natural deadzone for the outside is a bit high as I feel I have to move the left stick more than I'd like for small adjustments to aiming with any scopes in a game, but that may also be the games responsiveness and not the controller. The face buttons and d-pad feel firm and the tactile click is comparable to an Xbox or PS5 controller. The triggers, unfortunately aren't analogue but they have a nice soft tactile click. The bumpers are the same. Only other gripe is that the XYAB buttons require a little too much pressure to actuate. When I'm in the heat of a gunfight I tend to tap the XYAB buttons lightly as I'm trying to be quick, and every once in a while it doesn't respond.

I bought this for use with the Samsung Galaxy fold 6 because unlike most controllers, this has the USB c connector on the left side, which is way better for the galaxy series because it allows the screen to be up. If it's on the right side, the screen extends below the controller, which is far from ideal. The app is ok, but not great, and may be sketchy according to antivirus software. I didn't notice any issues. In the bright side, once you configure it and update the firmware you can remove the app and the controller still works fine.

This controller works great on my Android phone. Its responsive and easy to connect no additional software needed. Its also super lightweight and can play games for a long time.

Good things come in small packages. Was able to get it for under 30 does a great job playing on GeForce Now and using a backup phone as a retro handheld. Won't work with thick cases but the phone bumpers come in different sizes. Had to get it because for some reason can't use my Razer Kishi with my phone if it has a screen protector.

This doesn't have fancy features like wireless, or even analog triggers, but its well built and great for most phone games at a reasonable price. It fits my fold7 with no issues and I like it. Some games also dont recognize it, but there's tools for that. If you like codm look for the higher end gamesir controllers.

AWESOME little controller! Way better than the backbone, this has anti scuff rings around the sticks so they feel buttery smooth and hall effect sticks and triggers so you never have to worry about stick drift. The shape is much more comfortable than the backbone as well, they also offer and fan to cool your phone that attaches to this controller! (sold separately on there website) The only thing the backbone did better was having a little gaming hub but who needs that !
