    I'm not a gamer, so I don't know or care what's good or bad about this. It does what it's supposed to, and does it well enough. It works great for emulators! Also it's clever that they have a headphone jack and microphone on the controller itself! My only complaint is that they went with micro USB instead of USB Type-C.

    First of all, if you have a Shield Tablet or console or a TV and you don´t have this, well you are wasting 50% of your Shield device. The controller is awesome, you can map touches on the tablet screen to physical buttons for games with no controller support, is comfortable to play with, WiFi, so no laggy Bluetooth connection, and rechargeable. On top of all that, you can actually use it to play in the computer (YAY! PC gaming glorious master race). 2 downsides to this thing. The first one, it has an integrated touch pad that sucks, the second one, the headphones plug is at the top, which is kind of uncomfortable with short cables. Overall is a good product and I definitely recommend purchasing it.

    Not as good as some console controllers but still a pretty good fit, good range and fairly good ergonomics.

    Great controller with great battery life. I have it for my Shield Tablet and I can play games all day and still have at least half charge remaining. It also works great for playing on my PC as well. My only complaint is that the touch pad is a bit small and awkwardly shaped but it's really only necessary to use if you have to scroll the screen in an app, so it's not a big hassle.

    Connects with the shield with wifi direct and very responsive. The built in mic works for voice search on the shield. When connecting headphones to the controller the Shield automatically adjust the sound playback to keep it in sync with the video

    Design and looks are prime on this controller, it goes perfectly as a well planned inclusion for the Nvidia shield tv box, also works flawlessly with my PC, sometimes a little on the unresponsive side but great for the non hardcore gamer.

    Good controller. Very little lag between controller and shield. Just needs a more ergonomic design, it's not very comfortable to hold for very long. I would only recommend this because I like the shield in general

    Very versatile item! I was excited to realized that not only could I use it to game with my shield, but I could wire it to my PC and use it gaming there too! Love it! Sensitivity is nice. Good weight and feel in my hands. The construction grade is nice, reminds me of an xbox controller.

    Fantastic Controller

    Just pick up this thing and feel how solid it is. It is built very well. I got mine for my K1 tablet however you can use the built in USB port for gaming on your PC. Gaming with the Shield or Shield Tablet are over WIFI NOT Bluetooth. So the range is very good. The rechargeable battery last VERY long , in excess of 20 hours of use for me. The Controller also has a built in headphone jack and a mic. The controls are very fluid and solid. They operate as you would expect however this is no lightweight knockoff product. It is a heavy and solid. There are additional touch buttons for mouse, page back and power. Mappings can be downloaded for most Android and PC games. Firmware updates also available. Every button is right where you expect it to be and this thing is built tough so it can take a beating. I have recommended it to many of my friends and I will be buying another one soon.

    I bought this after researching online a solution for my Bebop drone. It connected and works well. I had a little issue finding a bracket to hold my S7 edge on top. I finally found one. Now I can use my full screen to view and not use the phone as the controller.
