Review on ๐ŸŽฎ iPega-PG-9083S Wireless Phone Joystick Game Controller for Samsung/Huawei Android Smartphones & Tablets (Android 6.0+) by Warrick Batebi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Problems from the start that only got worse.

I was delighted with this device considering its full potential. It has great build quality, switchable modes, and really looked like it would enhance my tablet experience. Unfortunately this was not the case. Controller feel is decent and the buttons and triggers are all clicky, but the device suddenly stopped sending button presses to my tablet, requiring me to unplug and plug the controller back in for it to work. Speaking of unplugging, I had to unplug it completely and forget about the controller and then fix it for maybe the third time trying to connect the controller to the device. Now another thing that was weird and I can't 100% defy it, in some games it got my start and home buttons mixed up meaning I didn't have a start button. I tried putting it in different modes, manually adjusting the controls in games, resetting the device settings, it didn't help. But that's the problem, the joystick is stuck. I don't mean physically, I mean that the device's "move right" command was always on. The sense of the game has become unplayable. Less than 5 days have passed since the purchase. Also, I'm very careful with my technology so I have no idea why this happened, it's just really frustrating. Actually, they are not other Android accountant type controllers. I hope others have had better experiences than me, but I'll assume they haven't and recommend you don't buy this.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Negative is present
