    Love my controller! Got a free trial for Apple Arcade on my Apple TV and fell in love with the game selection— this controller works with the Apple TV perfectly! Much better than using the remote or your iPhone. Love it!

    I purchased this controller to use with my ipad pro. It work well with some games but it doesn’t work at all or it lags with other games. For the games that supports mfi controllers this is a nice controller just don’t expect to play all of the games on the app store.

    This remote was bought to replace the missing remote from a virtual reality headset that was bought. The remote is OK it's easy to work. But it's a redundant purchase since the headset is supposed to carry it. It works a lot better with android.

    Got this controller to play games on the Apple TV with two or more players. Syncs easily. Only iOS game controller that’s compatible. Controller had a companion app that comes with games to be played in iPhone and iPad but costs money. Great choice.

    We purchased this for our kids to play with the apple games from Apple TV. It is been out of the box and still going strong after two weeks. This blue tooth controller is still going strong. Thanks Best Buy for helping me get the right one!

    I got this controller with an Apple TV Holliday bundle. I use it occasionally. It was easy to link to the Apple TV and works without any issues so far. Has a good battery life. Works and feels like any other big game platform controller I’ve used.

    I use this controller to play a few different iOS games and it works flawlessly in supported MFi games, including Shadowgun Legends. You can find purpose-made clips that attach your phone to the controller on websites such as Amazon to enhance the experience.

    Not a big gamer, but I wanted to play some games on the Apple TV 4K. The included Siri remote is fine for some games, but others require a bit more control. This makes all the difference. Seems to be well-made and is responsive. Easy to pair. Recommended.

    Great controller you definitely feel the quality upon holding the device. You can get the feel this controller at any Apple store where they demo the Apple TV. That’s where I first got the hands on experience. Yet, Best Buy has great prices and warranty so bought it here.

    This is a great controller for playing mobile Fortnite. If you don’t like touch screen this controller feels right at home. Very precise and no lag. Just like an Xbox controller. I love it!!!!!!!

    I bought this on a special deal from Bestbuy that was bundled with an Apple TV. It was a great deal and I'm really enjoying playing games from the AppStore. The controls are smooth and responsive. Love the fact that you can recharge using the standard lightning connector.

    One of the perks of the new Apple TV was all the games available in the App store. I needed a controller that I would like, but also that is good for kids. This is an excellent controller for easy kids games, or more complex shooters and driving games. Highly recommended.

    At first, I couldn’t see this thing working well with iOS. Well, I was wrong, it works with my iPad, iPhone, and Apple TV. Makes tons of games better for those who like controllers over touch screens, haven’t tried fortnite but it works for PUBG.
