    The first one we bought one of the buttons had some lag and wasn’t responsive. Exchanged it for a new one and all of the buttons had lag and weren’t responsive. Returned it and got a refund. Sad, because it is an extremely nice controller.

    Let’s start this with I’m not a gamer. I bought this for casual game play on my Mac. But this controller kinda sucks. The response is terrible can’t aim the thing to save your life. It doesn’t work with all games. Spend the extra money on something else

    The other reviews here are either bots or liars. This controller does not work correctly with any game I've tried so far. iOS/iPhone 8. I bought this controller primarily for PUBG and War Robots and a handful of VR games. Not one works. The 'companion app' is a travesty. It is basically a marketing tool for selling games and provides exactly zero utility for working with the controller. Doesn't even tell you how full the battery is much less offer a way to map buttons/functionality. If I could give this negative stars, I would. Complete waste of money and is being returned immediately.

    First thing I noticed was the controller buttons did not match up with any of the pc games' controls. Plus it had a complex set up to fix the buttons. Ended up returning it for an Xbox controller.

    A Cheap & Poorly Thought-Out Controller

    No clickies (i.e. no L3 or R3) on the analog sticks made this controller not worth the plastic it is molded into.

    While my hubby made some use of it, it was very limited and I had to purchase fighting games at high prices, it was only a few fighting games there.

    I was very excited when I saw this controller to use it with iOS games but that all my hopes disappeared as soon as I tryed it to play Rules of survival. The thing even has its own app in wich they update the games you could play with it(or at least that’s what the devs should be doing) but the games you can play are actually garbage,long story short don’t spend your money on this product unless you own an iPhone 6 because otherwise you will just be wasting your money.

    For $50, it should be flawless

    In my opinion: I pay $35 for a PS4 controller and it works. I expect the same for a $50 controller. Connecting to Bluetooth was strangely difficult. When it finally connected to the iPad, Fortnite did not recognize it immediately. Eventually it did, but the joystick controls were inverted (up was down, down was up). Not worth it for $50.
