This controller feels pretty good, but not as good as an Xbox or PlayStation controller. Batteries are cool, but a rechargeable battery port would be nice also.

The controller itself is excellent. Responsive, solid build, feels high quality.
It doesn't work in Windows without SteelSeries installed, and it seems to get confused if 2 devices are in the area that have connected to it. Works ok with my Android, when it's not conflicting with my PC.
Good controller, but would only recommend to people comfortable troublshooting connections.

I love this controller. I never really liked playing mobile games the require alot of touchscreen controls but this game pad makes it so much more enjoyable. I will probably by another one. My only gripe is that there isn't a rechargeable battery included at that price point. Other than that it feels good in my hand, and feels solid.

I use this controller with my Galaxy Note 5. This controller works well for most games on Android. It's great for Minecraft, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, and Knights of the Old Republic. The only games I have trouble with are the GTA games. It causes weird glitches on GTA: San Andreas. Overall it's great but be aware that it may not work for every game that accepts controller input.

Haven't played video games in years. This product was recommended by a store employee so i could play Cuphead. I thought i was Realllly out of practice. Turns out the controller has a slight lag to it. Then I tried again with the kid's wired controller and the movements were much smoother.

This is a great bluetooth game controller. It feels like a cross between a PS4 and XBOX one controller. Very good control and button intensity. The only con this controller really has is no rechargeable battery pack or plug in. This can be easily resolved with using 2 rechargeable AA batteries as long as you have a second pair always on the charger.

For $60 I was expecting a built in rechargable battery, fully functional vibration, and durability like a console controller. However, the battery it included is quite long lasting which is nice. It promised over 40 hours of battery life and so far it's been over 100 hours of casual gaming. The controller does not support vibration which is quite disappointing because I was expecting it to vibrate like other console controllers. The design is good for persons with big hands but after a week, the R2 button started to squeal whenever I press it.
Overall if you are planning to buy this controller because of the compatibility in both Android and Window, there are other cheaper ones. For this price, it should be able to vibrate and have built in rechargable battery.

I purchased this controller to be used with the new Gear VR and my Note 7 for a full VR experience. It has worked beautifully with all of the games I have purchased so far. The only thing it is not great at is mapping buttons and being used for steam games. Great controller though, good weight, great triggers, closest thing to an xbox controller.

This is the Swiss army knife of all game controllers. It's works with everything and it is super easy to setup.
