Review on Gamepad Microsoft Xbox One Controller, white by Amar Amar ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The goods are normal, money is not wasted!

I used PC emulators to purchase classic games that were only available for the Dendy, Sega, and Super Nintendo systems. In addition to that, I used AliExpress to get a wireless adaptor for my Xbox. I got it solely for use with Windows 7 when I made the purchase. Everything functions quite well even without any dancing accompanied by a tambourine. There is no need for you to physically install anything because the firewood was automatically set up for you. Everything is working wonderfully. But, I do not find the ergonomics to be really satisfying. Because the D-pad is typically the most important control element in retro games, an asymmetrical layout of the analog sticks became noticeable. The position of the thumb when using the cross is awkward since it is too far bent downward and to the side. I had the impression that it would not be important, but no. Again, from a practical standpoint, I do not find the primary buttons that are located on the right side of the gamepad to be very convenient. My hands are about one-tenth of an inch larger than typical. in order to prevent the thumb from sticking out to the side once more. In order to hit the buttons in an easy and comfortable manner, you will need to move the coverage to the bottom of the gamepad. As a consequence of this, you move your grip on the gamepad such that it is closer to the tips. Very carefully, since if you take it too seriously, you won't understand it:) Having holders that are longer would make things more convenient. I don't recall ever having issues of that nature when I owned one of the very first PlayStations ever produced by Sony. On the other hand, the Sony PS4v2 did not even attempt to purchase a gamepad. To begin, it is approximately five hundred dollars more expensive. Second, it is equipped with DirectInput. Even though it does not make a difference for older games, it is still beneficial to have a universal gamepad when playing more recent games. Finally, there is a possibility that there could be issues with wireless communication, specifically because it utilizes the Bluetooth standard frequency of 2.4GHz. The Xbox, when used in conjunction with a wireless adaptor, has a frequency of 5 GHz as its operational range. The channel that is utilized less frequently will have lower levels of interference. For me, surprises with communication are completely useless when I'm playing on a TV that's around 5.5 meters away from a computer. If I knew for sure that the PlayStation 4 would fit in the palm of my hand the way it should, then maybe I would go with that option. Don't get me wrong; the reason I dropped the score on the gamepad was because of my PERSONAL FEELINGS (that it would be better for longer holders), in addition to MY OBJECTIVES (retro gaming - cross). It is obvious that the PS4 is situated in a more advantageous location when a cross is present. Nevertheless, I am unsure about the holders; it is possible that they will be too short for me as well.

Pros
  • The quality of the assembly and the materials
Cons
  • Ergonomics
