the connection would micro-lag randomly, even when wired. like it would act like it was disconnected for half a second, then go back to working. updating soft and firmware didnt fix it and i couldnt find other people online with the same issue so i just chalked it up to a loss. i bought it like a month after they released though, so it lasted a decent amount of time.

I haven't gotten around to play anything 2D with it yet, but it seems decent for a cross dpad. maybe not the best, but decent. if dpad is really important to you, you might want to do more research maybe for another model.

I bought two of these. First one bumper buttons stopped working. Tried everything to fix it but nothing could save it.

Second one has some kind of weird input read sometimes where my character will face left after running right when I never pressed left. Can make certain interactions needlessly hard.

I love the ergonomics and comfy grips, and the extra buttons are great but I wouldn't buy a third one because the core mechanics of the controller are simply not good enough for the price.

The funny thing is I'm not even a heavy user. I play with mouse and keyboard on anything that isnt a third person action game or side scroller.

Got it on sale, it also fits my specific arrangement of devices (PS2/3/4 and PC). It also works with the Switch if you update the firmware. Only thing it doesn't do is sixaxis for the 5 PS3 games that used it. Not a fan of how cheap and light it feels but it's a reliable controller, and their support is pretty good

I have a Tarantula Pro and whatever the fuck their white Xbox controller with hall effect sticks is called. They both feel better quality than my previous Dualsense and Xbox controllers, that's not a sterling endorsement though since both Microsoft and Sony have been putting out absolute dogshit controllers after the PS3/360 era. The big thing that sold me on them is that the USB-C slot has built-in support for the cable, because apparently that's the only way to make a USB-C connection not shit itself after a few months.

I changed BT dongles multiple times because cheap ones could not sustain good signal at 2 meters.
But if you have motherboard with build in Wi-Fi and external antenna your BT should work just fine.

based fellow value for money enjoyers. Picked up two of these as spare controllers for guests and use them a lot just for myself.

I bought mine in 2010 and it worked up until 2019, by the end the battery compartment was fucked up and stick drift was getting unbearable.
Not to mention the rubber on the sticks just disintegrated.
D-pad was always dreadful, just the worst d-pad I ever experienced.
It's sitting in my drawer, nasty as fuck.

I redeemed the card for that Gamesaar Cyclone V2. I like it a lot, returned a Wolverine V3 I bought because it didn't seem worth twice the price.

Not the biggest fan of the face buttons but I'm used to them at this point.
