    Connects quickly to my Samsung Galaxy s7, very nice to use for many VR games. With ocean rift, it is much easier to swim around with controller than using the TouchPad on the gear vr)

    I purchased this for use with four different "devices" - a gaming laptop, a Samsung Gear VR (with Galaxy S6), an ASUS ZenPad S 8.0 tablet, & a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition). It works great with all of them. What else can I say?

    Controller is great for my virtual gear. Makes navigation easy and since it reads like an Xbox One controller, there wasn't a learning curve.

    Bottomline, In my opinion; this controller is very well built. Sticks and buttons perfectly placed, with awesome tactile feel and response. Love the fact it may be used between my Android, and PC devices. Great value.

    I was looking for a hand controller for my Gear VR and found a video on Youtube about the Stratus XL and it was highly recommended. So I went to Best Buy to find a controller and the Stratus XL was in fact the only controller they had that would work with the Gear VR. It does indeed work but it is not terribly user-friendly. There are a few steps you need to take to get it connected to your devices before you can use it. You pretty much have to figure out for yourself which button does what. But once you do it works well.

    I bought this to use with my Gear VR. This is a great controller that is easy to set up. The quality of the controller is very similar to that of an Xbox One Controller. The fact that this controller works on PC is a bonus too!

    I bought this to be able to play some of the vr games available on the samsung devices and have had fun with it. It was easy to link and works well right out of the box. I haven't come across any issues of mapping buttons yet.

    For anyone looking for a PS style controller that is compatible with most Windows games using a controller, this is it. Cons: While the controller itself works great, ALL you get is the controller and 2 AA rechargable batteries. Recommended additional products: A standard micro USB cable (needed for controller firmware updates) A seperate bluetooth receiver (you MUST have this), one is not included. A wall charger and extra AA rechargable batteries. There is no way to charge the controller through USB or other means.

    This is the easiest wireless controller to set up I've ever owned. It's buttons and joysticks feel just like a mainstream consol controller, and it's very responsive.

    I had purchase a less expensive model and it was very poor would not pair well and could not get it to connect more than once. This controller works very well with my Samsung Note5, Note 12.2 Pro Tablet and Gear VR.
