    I gave this control as an gift for my niece and she loves it. It's great to use with her virtual reality headset and it was easy to pair with other devices.

    I did not know that the Apple TV could double as a gaming system until a year after purchase. Seeing this controller on display in my local Best Buy was great. I enjoyed being able to try it out prior to purchase. I bought 2 for my kids.

    I bought this to play console style games on the iPad. The controller is a quality controller, similar to the standard PS4 controller. Works very well with iPad games. Connects quickly with no observable lag and stable connection. Only issue I've found is that it doesn't work as well when a bluetooth keyboard is simultaneously connected. Not a problem for me because I rarely use the two together. I don't have any issue with either accessory when connected individually, so I'm not sure if it's the keyboard, the controller, or a combination that causes the issues.

    I really enjoy having this controller. My remote that came with my 4k apple tv stopped working after a couple of months and having this wireless controller was such a life saver. Although, I should probably take my apple remote to get looked at to see what's wrong. I also like the fact that the controller makes me feel like I'm playing a game all the time. It's weird because I'm not an avid gamer or anything, but now with this controller I don't feel so left out of the gaming world. Another great thing about this controller is that it comes with it's own charging cord that can also be used to charge any apple devices. The battery on this thing is really awesome too. When it's fully charged my controller lasts for a couple of weeks, but mind you I only spend a couple of hours a day on it and turn off my controller when I'm not using it while watching a movie or show.

    The control itself is ok.. and it doesn't feel cheap. It does get laggy sometimes, that's my only compliant. Other than that its alright.

    This is a great, high quality controller. However, I feel like not enough games in the App Store have native support for MFI controllers and so there is a limited selection of games which you can use this controller for on your iOS device. The selection of supported games on Mac is even smaller. It gets great battery life, charges with a lightning cable, and feels great in hand though!

    Great Controller When Gaming On iOS/Apple TV

    I mainly purchased the controller so I wouldn't have to use the Apple TV remote as a controller when playing games. It paired easily with my Apple TV 4th generation, iPad 5th generation, and my iPhone. It paired with my MacBook Air as well but, I haven't tried to play a game with it so, I can't say much there. When using it with the first three it performs perfectly. I just wish there were more games that I could make use of it with on those devices.

    This remote basically makes the Apple TV a video game device as well. It's stellar if you have young kids too. There are lot's of free games, and most other games are not super expensive; cheaper than PS4 or XBOX games. Although apple tv games are probably not as in depth as the games on PS4 or XBOX. The controller can also be used as another Apple TV remote, so if you happen to have temporarily misplaced the stock remote you can simply use this controller in its place.
