This caught my eye as a good spare to go with my official XBOX controller or incase somebody comes over and wants to play something with me. Just go into buying this knowing it is an offbrand controller and it will never be as good as an official controller. We all had those offbrand controllers as kids. You know what to expect. I think it is reasonable for the price and features.
Pros
- Linking works to your console, computer, TV, etc. The slide toggle on the back has 4 settings to pair to different types of devices. For reference they are: X or D for Windows/MAC/Steam. D mode for Android devices. S mode for Nintendo Switch. V mode for iPhone/iPad.
- Battery life is not intended for VERY LONG periods of use, but expect 8-12 hours. Pretty good.
- Backlights, vibration, and analog sensitivity are good and are all adjustable.
- Macro buttons that can be programmed / assigned with your hands on the controller.
- Comes with spare D-Pad and thumb grips, as those inevitably wear out over time.
- The English in the manual is intelligible.
Cons:
- It doesn't feel like it would hold up so well to kids throwing it around, quality is okay though.
- The macro buttons are not fully programmable, they are just for recording input sequences and playing them back on your controller. Think of this as something like inputting Mortal Kombat moves so you can do them by pressing one button.
- Although it is compatible with many devices, you will have to get good at setting it up and dialing in the settings.
