Like many of the other reviewers, I use this as a controller for a digital flashcard app (Anki). My first one broke after about 3 months - when I would click the main button (the one you would use for advancing a slideshow), it would often send multiple signals, messing up my progress. I was annoyed with this and prepared to knock a star or two off (because it had otherwise worked very well and was very cheap) before I checked the app and saw I'd used it 75,000 times in that 3 months. So if you use it an absolute ton it will eventually break, but for the price I feel like 75,000 uses is pretty darn good.

Very unreliable. I am not sure if it is shorting out or the antenna inside doesn't work, but the device keeps resetting every 2-3 seconds (you can tell when the LED light starts flashing). I was able to pair the controller, but then it disconnects 2-3 seconds later and then keeps connecting and disconnecting. I am sure that if it stayed connected, this would work very well because for the brief 2-3 seconds, it does show up as a USB controller. I believe this is a build quality problem.

I liked the fact that it paired nicely with my Sony Xperia XZ Premium. Now I have advancement and volume control of my 3D slide show without having to reach inside the VR headset to swipe the screen! I had used the Sony BRH10 control, but as those age the BRH10 seem to loose the ability to hold a charge. This game pad controller takes AAA batteries, no problems there. Once this is paired I simply set the sides switch to game mode and control the show with the joystick. It is thicker than the BRH10, Works well for my purposes. If you want to replace most of the functions of the BRH10 remote control, at a reasonable price, this is perfect.

Controller works for iCade games, which basically acts like a keyboard using WASD for the joystick. If connected to a PC it recognizes it as a keyboard. Unfortunately, it doesn't work like a normal gamepad so it doesn't work for other games that need a controller. If it was programmed like a gamepad, it would be better since you can also use it on PC as well. For the price, it's not bad in quality. It feels very comfortable in the hand.

I wanted an Anki controller. The 8BitDuo Zero is the go-to choice but they don't have a joystick, which is what I was mainly looking for, that way I could control my cursor and click on things and/or set it to scroll, and other models/brands are still a bit too big or too expensive. It took me a while to set this one up (almost gave up) because the buttons are not mapped correctly *at all*. I had to use the Contanki add-on (This is the number to download/install it, you'll need to: 1898790263) to remap *Every. Single Button* manually, which took a few hours. The controller has a tiny red light that flashes to let you know when in pairing mode, when connected, and flash when the batteries are low (takes 2 AAA batteries). Except, I installed fresh new batteries from the store, and yet it keeps flashing? Lastly, the small power and menu buttons sometimes have to be pressed harder/multiple times to induce an action. In general, the controller feels cheap, but it is well built, so good value for the money. If the 8BitDuo Zero had even one joystick, like the Lite model (which has two) and they managed to keep it small, I'd get it instead. Overall, I would recommend it if you're patient and Anki savvy. Once you get it to work it does so flawlessly.

Very happy with items

Tried to use as a game pad for NFS, I am not a gamer just to have fun in PC so I don't like to invest on joystick or two hands game path. Even though NFS game recognizes the device as a game pad, is not real time responsive as you like. So, car movement is really bad, only good thing the acceleration key, perhaps you can trigger in FPS games but you will not move as fast as you wish. Conclusion do not use as a game pad.

It worked fine on my Galaxy J3 cell phone, once I knew how to turn it on by pressing the middle left button for a few seconds. You also have to know the difference between Key mode and Game mode. The bottom button and the one to the left of it control the volume only in Key mode, and you can move the icon pointer/selector only in Game mode.
