    Easy to setup right out of the box has wireless Bluetooth and USB cord capability plus charge while playing. Very well built not just cheaply made.

    So far I'm liking it. The last 2 PC controllers I got were cheap wired ones. This seems some what nicely built. Built in battery last a long time. It's not a small wireless controller to where my hands feel large. My only problem with it so far is it you dont put in an imput for like 5mins it auto turns the controller off. But as soon as you press a button it turns back on and reconnects in like 2 seconds. I'd say it's a nice mid priced wireless controller if your looking for a reasonable priced and quality one.

    A very good controller, as far as wireless go. I was Pleasantly surprised with how well it came in the Box. The Button ninjoi stick firmness works very well for what I intend to use it for and a found that the battery life lasts just about his lines it says that it should and that makes it that much better for me knowing that I don't have to recharge it is often as others that I have in the past. I also appreciate the ability to run it wired while it charges Bluetooth or wirelessly off of a dongle. Out of other controllers that I've used in the past this is hands down the best one that I've used so far and I look forward to using similar products from this company in the future and I would recommend this to anyone then looks into getting a wireless or Bluetooth controller for gaming or whatever else you might want to use it for it's definitely worth the price that you can get for.

    Great alternative to OEM Xbox Wireless Controller

    I love this controller and like the layout of the sticks compared to the OEM XBOX controller. I think having both sticks in a symmetrical layout is more intuitive since I use the stick more often than the D-pad. However, this all boils down to personal preference. Heft of the controller is great. Feels solid, and is very precise. Never had any issues with connectivity, and it's been a great replacement so far. Quality item and highly recommended!

    It is an excellent controller for the price. There have been occasions where the controller will stick on certain games while moving forward. But, it is only temporary and lasts only a fraction of a second. Then you are back to playing. Response time is excellent on all buttons, triggers and plus pad. If you are looking for a tough controller that responds well. I would say this will do the job. It feels great in your hands and not too bulky. The charging on the controller is a little slow once charged it will last for up to 8 hours of game play. If you are looking for a budget controller that will take the abuse and has long battery life give this one a try.

    So far this controller is new to me but functions perfectly. It is a plug and play and a turn on switch to use the bluetooth instead of the usb receiver. You can play on your phone which is cool. But it makes more sense if you use a casting device to make it bigger on a tv when playing on the phone. You can also connect with a wire if the battery is low and still play. Wired and wireless....not bad.

    Improvement over Razer for a cheaper price.

    Picked this up during a sale because my Razer - Wolverine had a shoulder button die after two years. This is a huge improvement. Feels better. Doesn't have the weird rubber grip that just got dirty and stained like the Razer. I prefer that the joysticks are closer together so prolonged usage doesn't cramp up my hands as much as the Razer one did as well. I have average (female) sized hands so the left joystick being where the d-pad is made it uncomfortable to hold after awhile. I don't need macros or memory gimmicks on my controllers so this is just a GOOD wireless controller.

    This controller isn't as bulky as I expected it to be, It's fits in my fairly large hands well without being too large, and without being too small, the controller has a good feel to it for the games I've played using it (gta, tekken, for honor) Ultimately a much more pleasant experience switching from using a ps4 controller to this. The only issue I've had so far is a somewhat limited range of light motion on the thumb sticks, you can't make SUPER precise maneuvers, but you really cant with most controllers anyways.

    This has been one of the better wireless controller I've purchased. The range is good. Battery seemed to last for a week or longer playing for 6+ hours a day 5 days a week. Easy Setup. Plug n Play.

    It was very easy to unpack read the directions put the wireless adapter into the USB port and charge it. The only problem I have is that occasionally during a game it seems to unsync and I lose the ability to play for a few seconds. It seems to switch between channel one which is programmed to be to channel 2 not sure why I have to shut down and restart everything. Other than that good product I recommend it for others.

    I picked this controller due to the fact that it seemed to be very versatile. I was 100 percent correct. The fact that it has a dongle allows me to plug said dongle into a computer, and allow it to function wirelessly off of it. I can, if I wanted to, purchase another one from their website and place it in another computer, if I wish. I can also connect it to another dongle from SteelSeries if I had another one (I do not). The Bluetooth functionality allows me to use this with my phone, as well as my laptop, considering the laptop has bluetooth on it. It works flawless with either method. If I wished, I can also use this as a wired controller by connecting the included charging cable. The buttons feel great, very responsive, and I have no issues at all. The battery I feel has a good life to it. I do recommend this controller for anyone who wants a gaming controller.

    This remote paired with my Pc is great. Long battery life and feels good in the hands. Used this to replace Microsoft Xbox Pc remote and it’s worked like a charm. Definitely does the job well and you can feel the quality. If your looking for a remote that’s the next best thing compared to Xbox Pc remote this is the one.

    Excellent feel, extremely ergonomic with the construction quality you'd expect of steelseries. Battery life is great, and I've experienced no lag issues from wireless. If you don't own a console (or don't need an extra controller for your latest gen console but need something for your PC) is highly recommend giving this a try.

    Easy to connect but has some minor connection lag. Also there's not many support for key mapping on the Android or PC. Unlike the Xbox controller. so besides the lag everything's pretty solid and feels nice in the hand.I really wanted to use the controller because the build quality was nice. The controller uses a USB dongle to PC which works very well but the Bluetooth lacks a little bit of luster. I'm still waiting for more updates otherwise it's just collecting dust.

    I use it for my Stealth laptop after getting tired of buying/repairing my xbox controllers. So far it's great, good deal for the wireless capability and integrates with mostly all steam games. Integrates with my keyboard as well so I guess that's neat. For someone that travels a lot like me it was worth the buy.

    Battery life lasts a long time! Comes with a USB adapter for quick wireless connectivity, also has a switch to go into Bluetooth mode if you wanna paid to you phone. I’ve used this with my Samsung and it pairs perfectly for me to play Nintendo 64 and GameCube games via emulators. Works with iPhone but honestly iPhone is a joke with their emulators and downloading Roms and iso is impossible. So my iPhone is pretty obsolete. Works with any steam game that supports controller, works with pretty much every gaming platform on pc and acts as an Xbox controller unless you use programs to do otherwise. It does not have a gyroscope functionality so don’t expect any motion controls. Comes with charging cable and charges super fast
