Title: Best controller I've purchased.
Review: If you understand the benefits of hall effect joysticks and triggers, you'll know that some of the most expensive controllers on the market, some even in the $150+ range, don't even have them. Not acceptable for that price range. I'm tired of replacing old controllers, repairing them to get another short usage span out of them, or just outright having to trash them. I only buy hall effect now.Now I could say any hall effect controller is good, and having used nothing but them for the past couple years, I'd be mostly correct, but this controller feels solid and plays even better. I can't get over the $17 price tag either.The controller was instantly recognized by Windows. No extra setup. Just plug in the dongle and hit the center button on the controller and it will sync right up. The RGB is easy to play with. You just double tap the "M" button and use the left joystick to play with your options, one of which includes no lights at all. When you're decided, just tap "M" again and your set. It comes with two thumb grips and a USB C charging cable as well. All in all, it was a pretty seamless process. I was in game within seconds of powering it on.Triggers and all buttons are very responsive. D Pad is sufficient no matter what games you play, including fighting games(not the greatest, but will suffice. You should be using a fight stick anyway!). Joysticks feel great and again, the ease of mind knowing they'll last is what is most exciting here.EasySMX have done a good job here. I'll likely be picking up a second or even a third to keep in their boxes until my friends finally wear out my older, potentiometer joystick controllers ha!

Title: So far I'm quite happy
Review: UPDATE 11/24/2024: They are actually sending me another controller, so I can have one set up for bluetooth and one for Wired/USB. It gives me the chance to learn how the controller interacts with Linux under these other conditions. I suspect the settings have already appeared on newer versions of Linux than the one I use. I will say again, wonderful service. i recommend this product highly!UPDATE 11/22/2024: The company is sending me a USB dongle. Very impressed with their service!I am using this over Bluetooth, and it works well. However, I am not sure, but I thought I should have received a USB dongle, should I want to use this device with a machine that doesn't have bluetooth. I am on Linux, so if I want to use the controller with a wire, I would need to "jump through hoops" to get it working that way, for instance, on an old PC that doesn't have Bluetooth. I also understand I would run into the same hoops were I to connect by way of the USB wifi dongle.As I said, I didn't receive a USB wifi dongle, nor an instruction manual. I have reported this to EasySMX per Amazon's instructions, and hope to hear from them soon.Even with these issues, I have given this device 5 stars. It's sturdy, it has a good battery, I like the ceramic block antenna, and it's very programmable with the buttons (I found a manual on Manuals Plus.)Assuming most purchasers get all three parts, I would recommend this device highly.

Title: Great controller
Review: This exceeded my expectations for what I had paid for it! The battery lasts a long time before needing to be recharged, and has a quick charge. Works great for pc gaming!

Title: Awesome!
Review: Does great , showes up as an xbox controller. It's decently solid without being stupidly heavy , something you appreciate during long gaming sessions. It's got a small amount of RGB , doesn't look like a carnival ride , just nice. It mysteriously had games in Luna spinning in circles and I had to crash the game to regain control. But Luna isn't even closae to my main use for this and it's great.

Title: Doesn't work
Review: Looks and feels great but LB and RB buttons don't work properly!You need to press them very hard in order to activate them.Not sure if it is just my unit or is design flaw but it is useless like this.

Title: Refuses to auto-reconnect to PC dongle, lacking battery charge indicator, but otherwise great
Review: Why Did I Give 3 Stars: This controller is very good for the price point and I would actually recommend it. My interpretation of 3 stars is "I had thoughts in response to the product that made me unhappy" whereas 5 stars is I was never made unhappy. I gave 3 stars for 3 reasons: my controller refuses to auto-reconnect to my PC dongle after turning itself off after 5 minutes of inactivity without me manually putting the dongle and controller into pair mode, there is no way to get a battery charge indicator if you're playing/charging on PC because it goes into wired mode which they intentionally don't show battery for (presuming you're intending to play "wired" which makes sense but is flawed for this reason), and because the button to power off the controller requires me to open xbox home on my PC every time since it is also the "console/home" button (MINOR inconvenience yes, but still annoying and compounds the previous issues).Pros: - Form factor feels good. I intentionally bought it looking for an xbox feeling experience and got that. - Quality feels sturdy. Coming from expecting this price point to give me something like a Logitech F310 or MadCatz semi-transparent looking garbage, this doesn't feel like a piece of trash. - The frame doesn't creak or flex. - The ABXY buttons have acceptable wiggle tolerance. - The joysticks feel how I would expect (not too long of a neck, and smooth movement as you'd expect). - More subjectively, the bumpers are tactile with a click, but sound muffled which I like. - Also subjectively, the dpad has unique directional buttons rather than the new diagonal design xbox leans into. I MUCH prefer the unique directions over the xbox approach. People everyone online complain they're mushy. They are objectively mushier than the ABXY but I wouldn't have even noticed if everyone wasn't crying about it. It's perfectly fine imo.Cons: - The first functional con leading to a 3 star is my controller refuses to auto-reconnect to my PC dongle if the controller is turned off via 5 minutes of inactivity. If *I* turn it off, it works fine. But if it turns itself off, it refuses to reconnect without me manually putting controller and dongle into pair mode. Perhaps it's a unique edge case software wise with my configuration, but regardless it's annoying. - The second functional con leading to my 3 star is that there is no way to get a battery charge indicator if you are using the controller on PC and charging via the PC. When you play on PC wired, it shows no battery indicator "because you're wired" which intuitively makes sense. But the flaw in the logic is if I'm typically charging the controller on my PC to play wirelessly on my PC. The instruction manual suggests ways to see charge, but for my specific use case it seems impossible and this annoys me very much. - The third functional con leading to my 3 star is the power button is the "console/home" button. Every time I want to turn my controller off on my PC, it opens the xbox hub. Functionally, not too big of an issue in terms of impact or effort to fix, but it shouldn't be an issue at all imo. - This next point is aesthetic subjectivity. I chose the black and pink model. Aesthetically, the black looks pretty matte perhaps from the color itself, but the entire backplate *feels* like plastic. More reflective than I'd like. - This is less of a complaint because it could have not been a feature at all, and more of a "constructive criticism to consider moving forward on innovations." The configuration steps for lights and modes are pretty random feeling. If I lose my manual, I hope their website offers a digital replacement or I am in trouble. Also, if you're going to allow stick left and right to change tolerances for other things, why lock the joystick deadzones to "0 or default"? Why not allow a configurable range? Yeah it would probably be confusing to configure, but so is everything else. - Most reviews suggest you should get teflon tape strips for your joysticks. I never would have used them so this is DEFINITELY a petty thing to note, but for what it's worth I did not receive them if you care about that.

Review: The trigger is not working, it's blinking. The controller is not visible on any bluetooth radar whether it is console or PC. Spent $36 on this and found out that this won't even worth $15.Wrost experience!!
