   After a while the buttons stop being detected by pcs completely. Otherwise, I would recommend it.

   Great layout. Leds help to induce bloodlust. No stopping me when I see red

   These Haute42 boards don’t disappoint. High quality controllers for the price. I own a M16, S16, and HauteBoard Mini, and now this one. I have to say that this is by far my favorite because of the portability, without compromising its functionality and the number of buttons. I did end up replacing the switches with hand-lubed Akko Speed Switches to make it even more responsive (not that it is necessary, especially with the stock GP2040 firmware with almost non-existent input lag. Highly recommended!

   The haute42 is good for people whose looking for more of a mechanical feel and where all of the buttons are close and easy to reach but the biggest flaw on this product its built quality.

   -Some are poorly cut
   -poor durability. 1 drop its gone if your usb type c is attach to it.
   -board is easily leave finger marks

   But over its still a good board 7/10 it would be perfect if they increase the durability
   Im getting all of them

   I was looking for controllers that don’t use the arcade buttons (circle buttons) or the stick, and I came across this. It’s really awesome since I’m used to using keyboards.

   I’m using it for my pc (Steam) to play Tekken 8 – it’s really easy to set up, almost plug and play. I did have difficulties at the beginning when I initially plugged it in, but I think I just plugged it in wrong. After re-plugging, I had no issues.

   I just plug and play on my pc – it detects it quickly and I’m good to go.

   Highly recommend.

   Decent hitbox controller, works well with my RetroPie and my PC. Pleasantly surprised by the build quality. I like the fact that the switches and key caps can be replaced. Not bad for the price.

   So far this controller exceeded my expectations. Shipped relatively quickly. The controller works well in conjunction with the Brook Wingman FGC converter.

    Im always looking for new controllers and such for various gaming needs. This is a very nice option for side scrolling fighting games. The keyboard buttons instead of the round arcade style buttons are a nice change. They keys are transparent and allow the rgb lights to shine through nicely. The keys are blank with the action printed not the plate next to the keys. Speaking of the plate, mine arrived scratched up. It seemed to be from the manufacturer so I think at the price point they should try to prevent that. The overall build quality is nice and it feels substantial in the hand. It isn’t too big or heavy though making it nice and portable.

    So I have heard of these arcade sticks/keypads before and I saw a review video of a more popular Razer Kisune a couple of months back. So, I was a little excited to try one out and the Borcham B16 arcade stick gave me that opportunity. The keypad came in a rather simple brown kraft box, when unpacking it the first thing I noticed was how small it was – at about 8” long and 4” wide and little over a 1” tall (Base + keycaps) while weighing just a little over 10oz. The keypad is just a little larger than a standard console controller and considering is a perfect portable compact keypad. The keypad is pretty well made/built, the keypad internal is sandwiched between several layers of acrylic sheet and held together with a few metal screws. It’s not as fancy looking as other more dedicated arcade sticks/pads but its size and key layout are perfect. I also like that the switches and keycaps are hot-swappable should you wish to customize the keypad further – a key puller and 1 replacement switch are included. The keypad also lights up with RGB light and there are a few light modes built in. While the keypad is intended for playing fighting games like Tekken or Street Fighter after reviewing the simple manual included, I was intrigued to try using it on my laptop and play Android games through an Android emulator. At first, I was a little perplexed on how to set it up, but after accessing the web configurator (holding START while plugging the keypad in the laptop, and opening the web browser with ‘192.168.7.1’ URL) and tinkering with the configuration I was able to unlock the keypad potential and configure it to my needs. I set it to keyboard mode and remapped the keys to work with my Android emulator and once done it worked perfectly. I was able to play my games on the emulator easily without using a mouse and keyboard. Overall, I think it’s a great little versatile keypad/ arcade stick. I like that is configurable for other uses and the size is great for portability compared to a conventional arcade stick. It may feel a little pricey but considering what it is and the features it includes it is worth its cost.
