Title: The best controller I've used so far
Review: If tried out Razer's Wolverine or SCUF's Envision but thought they were too expensive, this controller gets you mostly there but for a much lower cost.Pros:- Every button is clicky. Whether they're mechanical or not, I'm not sure, but nothing feels mushy- Face buttons have a short throw and the clickiness gives a positive response. It's really nice to rapid fire a button if you need it.- Being able to change if the triggers have a long throw or a short throw is nice, and the short throw mode is amazing for games that don't need the analog function of the triggers.- You don't need software to configure the controller- Battery life is pretty decent (I got about 20 hours in total)Neutral (for me):- It can be confusing at first to change the RGB or rumble strength, but once you figure it out, it's not too bad.- Some rough textures, especially on the macro buttons and the thumb sticksCons:- Face buttons are backlit with no way to turn it off.- Thumb sticks can pop off, but are held magnetically and the magnets don't feel like they're the strongest. They're not so loose that they come off all the time, but if you throw it in a bag, they're likely to pop off.- The USB-C port is recessed and some of my cables don't fit in it.

Title: Good but not great.
Review: I'd like to say that this is a great controller for the money. You get a lot of features you'd spend more on with other controllers. The RGB looks really cool too. I also like how the onboard controls take a bit to remember, but it's nice to not need to jump into software. All the buttons feel nice and clicky, and the mechanical trigger stops are a great touch at this price point.It's not without it's issues however, and one in particular kind of relegates this as a back up in a just in case scenario. The problem being how easily the thumb sticks can come off. I literally blew them off with a compressed air can. You can feel them shift slightly when in game, and is kind of distracting. A touch of glue could fix the issue, but just a fair warning.

Title: Maybe the best value controller I've ever purchased
Review: Seems like a steal for the price point I got it for ($50). Found that is has checked a lot of the boxes my Xbox Elite Series 2 does for less than 1/3 the price. Hall effect sticks, gyro, mechanical switches, quick to connect, etc.Hard to find anything to complain about. The back grip buttons seemed a bit awkwardly placed but that might just be due to having larger hands. Also love the clicky buttons but they are audible so I could see that getting on someone's nerves.Would definitely recommend.

Title: For the price it works good but not without it's problems
Review: Over all it works well. Controller is responsive and very precise. Lighting looks good and all features seem to work very well.The only problem I've had with this controller is that the Bluetooth connectivity seems to glitch out and causes the controller to disconnect or the input to lag. Even after a hardware update to my PC and to the controller this problem still wasn't fixed. The USB 2.4ghz connection also has this problem, However when using a very particular USB A port it does seem to work. The wired mode works well

Title: A perfect upgrade from the X10.
Review: This company is quickly becoming my favorite. I bought the X10 and immediately became the only controller I used. I knew I had to upgrade to the X20 when it was released and it is everything I hoped for. I mainly wanted the trigger locks but having the color options and extra back buttons is an added bonus. I have nothing to do with EasySMX but I honestly can't recommend any other Xbox style controller other than theirs. If you like Xbox style controllers please give them a try.

Title: EasySMX continues to make some of the best controllers on the market
Review: I've been using the X10 model for most games for months now and absolutely love it. EasySMX has really come out of nowhere with an amazing line of pro-style controllers with premium features and very good pricesWhen I saw the X20 become available I had to try it. Immediately I'll tell you this is a fantastic controller. It has many of the best features of the earlier models plus some brilliant new ones. That said, it has a few hiccups I would like to see revised.RETURNING FEATURES I LOVED:-multiple input types. You get 2.4ghz direct and multiple Bluetooth modes for different systems. Amazingly universal controller and the 2.4ghz dongle gives you the lowest input latency by far.-mechanical switches. The face buttons are tactile switches that have a satisfying click and good travel. They don't squish into a membrane or wear out, and they're fantastically snappy and responsive.-Hall effect sticks. Accurate and responsive and zero drift.-programmable pro buttons. These are becoming more common these days, but EasySMX makes them fast and easy to reprogram with a few quick button presses and can even accept multiple key inputs at once. There are other companies that make great controllers but require you to use phone or computer apps to set up your pro buttons and I just can't put up with that. This controller does it right.-great overall design. No bulk or wasted space, it feels like an official controller.NEW FEATURES I LIKED:-more pro buttons! Now there's a total of four programmable back buttons instead of the original two.-Hall effect triggers. I didn't even know these were an option but it's great to have more durable and long-lasting components like this.-trigger mode switches. This might be my favorite new feature and it's one I've never seen before. There are toggle switches on the controller that can turn the trigger buttons from full travel analog triggers (exactly like a regular Xbox controller triggers) into clicky mechanical buttons just like the bumpers. I like the regular analog movement for racing games but for a lot of action and menu driven games I don't need that mushiness. This turns it into a real clicky button like the rest. It's been great for Balder's Gate, which puts menu functions on the bumpers and triggers.-LED lighting. It's always nice to have.THINGS THAT NEED IMPROVEMENT:-The analog sticks have "replaceable heads" I assume for swapping out the thumb grips. But it doesn't come with any alternative grips and the heads are held on by a very weak magnet. They fall right off easily, are easy to lose, and don't come with spares! This has to change.-RGB modes are underwhelming. Cycling through these settings is a bit unresponsive and it's hard to get exactly what you would like.-no more faceplate customization. Previous models like the X10 came with multiple faceplates that snapped on smoothly and gave you essentially a dark or light (or mix and match) option. It also made them easy to paint or customize further and very easy to keep clean! I really miss this feature and thought it would be a staple for them. It really should come back.Despite those small complaints this is an absolutely spectacular controller. I think you can do very well with their X10 model but if you like the sound of the extra pro buttons and the variable trigger modes (they really make a difference) then this is the pro controller for you.

Review: Clicky buttons, clicky dpad , clicky bumpers, Low latency from the 1000hz. you cant turn off the backlit buttons after update.Adjustable sticks are forgettable. D-pad is unforgivable. Macros with no N-key rollover.Updates with no update mode switch known to users all for 60-70 Canadian?If you love the features more than the cons its a five star. if you love retro and fighting game genres its a one star.

Review: the controller Easy SMX X20 is packed with pro controllers features:mechanical face buttons (light to actuate with a bit of traved , reliably actuate after the click). Halleffect sticks (resistance is on the lower side , reviewers indicate that it have very small factory built in dead zone , detachable and you can change the hight but not much, they feel acurate and give joy to aim with ).D-Pad: (work reliably after clicking, i didn't try it but multiple reviewers rated the D-Pad as not reliable for fighting games)Triggers : (they work fine and perform fine , not as good as the elite series 2, it's a two way trigger , one mode works as a clicky mouse button and the other is analog)addition programable buttons and can be set to do mocros with a series of actions or can be assigned for other buttons.Torbo on the fly, just by pressing the turbo button plus the desired button .RGB light adjested on the fly with various options.note:the price of the X10 in germany is 10 euro more but in the us and the official website the x20 is actually 10 euro or 10 dollars more !con 1: no didcated software so you are limited to the on boared programing .con 2: the 4 lights in the front keep blicking when playing wired but sometimes they don't maybe i am messing something here but that is annoying and distracting.con 3: i get disconnects when playing wireless like once every few hours but it reconnects immedietly , the dongle in connected directly to my PC , less than 2 meter away.it is doing so much good over the top for this price (40 euro) so even the cons so i am giving it 5 stars.Update after one month:there is a new firmware update from v1.13 to v1.19 , it fixes the D-Pad , the disconnecting problem not there anymore, the blinking lights are not blinking lights issue also fixed.I tested th aim on Aimlaps it is very good and the Gyro on PC is not really usable , because it intreduces a big input lag when activated.otherwise it is an amazing controller and i still recommend it

Review: This controller is easy to use straight out-of-the-box. It's comfortable and I found it to fit my medium-sized hands well. Buttons and triggers press nicely, and the control sticks move smoothly. It's a good looking controller with simple, but lovely light accents.I liked the extra feature to switch the triggers from a linear press to a microswitch - most games I play just need the full 100 so it's not just beneficial in gameplay but actually a nice ergonomic consideration.The automatic power-off after 10 minutes is another feature I appreciate since sometimes I'll get distracted and forget to turn it off manually.Button placement is good, nothing wacky unlike some other controllers that have the start and home buttons a bit out of place to be mildly infuriatingly. While the clear XYBA buttons with light-up labelling look neat, because of the way the insets are angled, you typically can't actually see the letter labeling when holding the controller in a normal posture. The D-pad's tactile switch yields pleasing clicks but I found the diagonal pressing experience to be a bit lacking.Connectivity-wise, both the dongle and Bluetooth connections worked without issue to my PC. It also had no issues being picked up by my Nintendo Switch.I did find the instructions for RGB adjustment to be unclear; they use the same phrasing of "push[ing] down" as they do for adjusting rumble. In the former case, they mean pressing directly downward to click the control stick whereas the latter is tilting the control stick up or down to adjust. Using the verb "tilt" would be so much more clear in the case of the rumble adjustment.Likewise, the programming was also unclear: I initially read it as to enter the mode you needed to press the C + M1 buttons (for 5 s) and then press the button you want to program; instead, it should be more clearly stated that you press the C button + whichever macro button you want to program for 5 s, then you press the button combinations you want to assign, followed by holding C and then pressing whichever macro button you had initially pressed to finish the programming. There's a reset button on the back of the controller in case you need to wipe all the settings to a clean slate; you can also reset by holding down the C button for 5 s.At $63, it's priced competitively compared to similar offerings from 8BitDo and GameSir - certainly less expensive than 1st-party controllers but still feature-rich and with hypothetically better control sticks that won't wear out as easily.

Review: Using this controller for gaming has been an enjoyable experience. The mecha-tactile buttons feel satisfying to press, offering quick and accurate responses. The adjustable triggers and sticks add flexibility, making it comfortable for different playstyles, whether in FPS or racing games. The RGB lighting is a nice touch, adding some flair without being too distracting. Thereâs no noticeable input lag, and the connection is stable, even in wireless mode. The only downside is that the setup process took a bit longer than expected, but once itâs up and running, it performs flawlessly.
Customers say
Customers like the responsiveness, appearance, and trigger pull of the video game controller. They mention the clicky buttons give a positive response, the onboard controls take a bit to remember, and the short trigger pull feature is amazing for games that don't need it.
