Review on Gamepad Defender X7, black by Adam Rymko ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I do not advise buying this, it does not meet the stated standards.

Toy for 30 minutes and money in the trash. Defender is a disgrace. Has some pros: At first, this thing even made me happy. A good replica of the XBox controller, all the buttons are in place. Even the wireless connection is fine! And what I certainly did not expect - an adapter for smartphones that is attached directly to the gamepad, and full compatibility with Android. Cool, I had time to play, until . Got cons: From the very start, the right side of the gamepad was tighter than the left. The bumper bounced off without impact (it is not felt to be released). And the right trigger completely jammed after 30 minutes of use. If disassembly does not help, the money is in the trash. And anyway, why should I rebuild something after the pipeline? I did not expect such a blow in the back from Defender. This is a real disgrace: to put so many features into the controller (wireless, support for several input modes), but not to make the most basic - working buttons. . Okay, I'll ate my review. Despite the above shortcomings, the gamepad served me for half a year, with almost daily use! But first things first. 1) As it turned out, the right trigger was absolutely not missed and therefore tightly stuck at the point of contact of the hole with the axle. Gently smeared the axle with lemon oil and voila! The trigger does its job perfectly to this day. 2) After 4 months, the potentiometer on the right stick began to move off. At first, the deviation was 0.03, which is kind of tolerable, and is a common problem in daily use. But a month later, the stick began to jam with a deviation of 0.5, and this already became a good reason to stop playing shooters. 3) A month later, a similar problem affected the left stick, but the deviation was immediately 0.34. 4) And the cherry on the cake - a day later, the left stick simply fell apart, ceasing to return to its original position.
