Highlights
Quality
The triggers are also great, with excellent trigger stops and mechanical buttons to let you customize your experience further.
All of the buttons, including the d pad feel great, the mechanical switches are very responsive and smooth.
It felt like i used my controller for 4 hours and put it on the charger and it was still basically at full.
Luckily i was able to reset the port after removing the cable, reported it through the link to their support and never heard back.
Price
To even include a dock at under $60 is amazing.

This is an absolute steal for only $55.
I probably don't deserve this controller for only $55.

Packaging/appearance
Love the feel of the buttons and triggers, this controller is packed with amazing features.
Was able to update with the packaged cable.
Competitiveness
The polling rate and latency "jitter" of this wireless controller is sooo much better than the series x controller + xbox wireless adapter.
Came from the beitong asrus 2 pro and this controller at the same price range feels so much better.
Honestly find me a better controller under 100 dollars, i'll wait.
Compared to the premium controllers i have purchased it is a wait and see if it lasts as long or longer.

I found that this had to have the firmware updated to have a battery life that i expected

I figure this is worth a mention because the software for the controller can only be downloaded from the windows store which is kind of annoying
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Id rather just be able to download from their website

Also for a controller that heavily mentions the steam deck it was a little annoying i couldnt do it on there via the desktop mode if i wanted to
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Firmware and software annoyances aside the controller overall is pretty good
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The controller can be set into dinput mode which is great if youre looking to add motion controls to some shooters while playing with the deck docked
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
While the controller has some quirks they can be easily overlooked if youre willing to tinker a little bit with your controller for the price point
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It feels odd but is probably because i am too used to membrane controllers
