   Controller works great, but a few complaints. Triggers are not pressure sensitive, buttons are noisy while playing and you have to turn it on with a specific button combination depending on what device you use it for. With that said, I love this controller, it feels like the old ones I grew up with and works great. Absolute dream for playing older games. Too many issues to give it 5 stars, but worth every penny.

   Works great, quickly synced up with my retro pie. Buttons are nice and joysticks work smoothly and respond well. All I’m all an amazing product.

   Awesome product. Works exactly as expected. Different modes were confusing at first, but overall this product met all my needs

   Right out of the box it didn’t work at all, wouldn’t connect to anything and was basically a paper weight. Unfortunately it was a gift that was bought early and by the time we found out it didn’t work it was too late to return it

   i bought it mainly for use on the switch, it works on macbook too, via bluetooth connection, very easy to pair. controls and buttons are responsive, the thumb sticks have enough resistance so it feels great while playing. i like the classic colours, brings back many fond memories. overall a very good controller, i like this more than the switch pro controller.

   This Bluetooth model Sn30 is responsive has the vibration and feels close to an original Nintendo game pad while mixing in a PS2 remote functions. Best I can describe it; born from those two controllers. Of course it also works with Xbox games but I prefer the feel of another model for Xbox which they sell. Holds a charge for a long time. Pairs extremely easy, in Batocera all I clicked on was pair remote and worked right away. Of course you can also plug it in with a cable if you wish through a USB port provided you get yourself a long enough cable. Build quality feels really good, it does not feel cheap at all and the buttons and joystick have a good feel to them. It came in a very nice box that looked an felt like an iPhone box. I know might sound ridiculous but it’s all those little touches that shows it’s well built and of quality. I purchased this during Cyber Monday. At it’s current price I find it a touch on the high side but still a remote I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to retrogame.

   This gaming controller has made me play games again. Its small, lightweight, and very responsive. I’ve played legacy games along with the new Prince of Persia and it works flawlessly. It also has a USB C charge input

   A nice compact versatile controller. So far, no connection issues whatsoever. Battery life is very acceptable, and the manufacture claims 18hrs of playtime. Officially supports iOS, Windows, Android, Switch and more. X-Input, D-Input, and Switch compatible. Even though Bluetooth is only version 4.0, I personally don’t notice any excessive latency when using it wireless. It can be hardwired via USB-C which is a good feature. I have had many controllers over the years, and I can say that to me it fits very well in my hands. The button, D-Pad and stick layout works well for me. L2 and R2 are not analog, but I only use it for games that don’t rely on the analog feature of those two triggers. The L and B buttons are a little close to LT and RT respectfully but are distinguishable from one another, at least for me. Feels of a good quality build. Overall, it’s just what I need, a small controller able to fit in my shirt or coat pocket, has very reasonable rechargeable battery life, and is a perfect solution for retro games. I like this controller.

   This controller is superb. It is very responsive, has great range, no lag, a solid weight and build quality, and the hall effect joysticks feel very good. Battery seems to be around 12 or more hours before it flashed on mine. I use it on my pi retro gaming system and it had no issues connecting using the nintendo switch pairing option (holding down b and start to power on before pairing). I highly recommend and i will likely buy another just based on the cool color variations. I’ve played entire games with the analog sticks, and there was no point where it was uncomfortable in fact i almost prefer this over an xbox style controller for some games.

    The product page claims 18 hour battery life, but I see the instructions which were included say only 14 hours. If I had known this earlier, I may have chosen a different model. Seriously considering returning this now.

    Although it is not as good as a full size controller it is a great otehr controller that works on everything I own ( including MAC, Switch , PS and XBOX )

    My favorite controller for games is the PS5 stock one, but for retro, this one is my pick. It’s not too simple like the NES controller but not as bulky like the PS5 controller. It has a nice weight to it, the buttons are responsive and has the feel of a SNES game pad. The two joysticks and extra triggers are a very nice touch. The Bluetooth connection is great but I should have got the 2.4ghz instead so I don’t have to pair, just stick in the USB. Overall I played a lot of old school games with it and it felt just right. I ended up returning it because it had connection issues with Raspberry Pi 5, but overall a solid product!
