Didn't work for me

I purchased this controller to use with my iPad mini and with my Macbook Air. Unfortunately, the Y-axis of the thumb sticks was inverted. Even after contacting Steelseries customer support, I was unable to get the thumb sticks to operate properly. I ended up returning what was otherwise a very, very good product.

When used as appletv remote

Remote works fine with appletv but I have not tried with other devices.....Problem I have with it is that it goes to sleep very quickly. Quicker than a 30 minute tv show is long. Kind of a pain to wake it up every time I pick it up. would really be nice if the sleep time was set-able.

Great controller for IOS devices

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I got this controller to play most of my games on my IOS devices. It worked for some of them but not all of them. For example in real racing and minecraft it worked awesome but when it came to playing games like hill dash or bewjeled it did not work.
Support for this controller is awful, I have yet to see a firmware update. After downloading the steal series engine app on my macbook it cannot the nimbus controller although its connected via bluetooth.
MISC
when pairing it with my steam link, the buttons are inverted the cross pad is not recognized making it if not unusable very difficult for PC games.
The analog buttons do not count as a button when you are pressing them (i.e. R3, L3 on PS3, Xbox controllers)
I feel that for $50 this controller should do a lot and I mean a lot more, I would say if you are looking for a bluetooth controller that works with only IOS devices to play some games get this, if you are looking for a controller that will work with your other bluetooth devices get something else.

No R3 or L3 buttons, lags, & missing start/select
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I have no idea what Steel Series was doing when they designed this. It lacks important buttons that many games use. I still can not find where the "Menu" button in the middle works. It's missing a start/select button, the digital thumb sticks are missing the inward press (R3 & L3) and the digital sticks are so close that your thumbs often hit each other. If all that isn't enough, there is often a fair amount of lag when pressing buttons. Just don't and use a PS3 or PS4 controller. I'll be returning mine tomorrow. Very disappointing.
