Almost never used in controllers

These controllers are pretty terrible. I ordered a pair and the buttons usually click into place like you're holding them and not letting go. You can disconnect the battery to fix this. Vibration blocks are also fixed. Take the batteries out again. Even when it's not, the keys are very noisy, have a long, stiff travel, and the sticks aren't really responsive. Think on/off and nothing in between. You don't have to be a super player to see how bad they are. Just try to pick the lock in Skyrimโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Functionality

Unusable - Huge dead zones on analog sticks

This controller looks and feels good (for the most part) and I've had no problems connecting it to my system. The triggers are fine, but the A/B/X/Y buttons are loud, sticky, and require you to press them further than usual to activate them. I can forgive the above, but the real problem lies with the analog sticks. They are completely useless. The poles feel very good physically and move smoothly the whole time. However, the input deadzone is HUGE, so much so that moving the stick 50% in anyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice touch
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something

A near-perfect alternative

So here's what you need to know: It's basically a near-perfect replica of the old official Xbox 360 controller with the same dimensions. The buttons feel the same. Sticks feel the same. The battery compartment is identical and will work with batteries designed for the 3rd party controller. It connects to the Xbox 360 PC Wireless Controller Receiver (but does NOT have Bluetooth; you need the receiver to use it with a PC) and shows up as an Xinput device, so it works with all your latest PC games

Pros
  • A few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable
