The only thing I was quite irritated with is the "hidden" fees of amazon. The total price only shows at payment page. And even though I've changed to currency to NZD, I've just realised I was charged in AUD from my bank invoice. Which is total bull. Didn 't save as much as I thought I would. Just a couple of bucks compared to Mighty Ape.
That being said, These are of high quality and is just as advertised.
Word of advice though, I bought this to play Genshin Impact, and was mortified to find that fhe game doesn't support controllers on android. And so I spent a whole day figuring out how to make it work, trying different 3rd party apps. And finally landed on one that works : Mantis Gamepad. Highly recommend. Works like a charm, and it 's free. Unless you wanna use your controllers for different games and need some sophisticated settings, then you can choose to pay for pro. But for me, I only play Genshin. Takes some getting used to since I've been playing it on my tablet since it launched, but I finally won 't get sore wrists now.

The only issues:
It’s not quite as comfortable as a ps3 or Xbox controller, leading to sorer hands and thumbs after a while
The A and B buttons are the wrong way around. They’ve gone with the Nintendo Switch/SNES style layout when I think they should have gone for the Xbox/PSX/GameCube/N64/Deck layout of having the main ‘A’ button being at the bottom of the button array. It’s designed for retro games but ironically this button layout makes navigation difficult and confusing across varying emulated games
The buttons feel solid, but are higher off the base and harder to press than Xbox/ps3 controllers, leading to sorer thumbs.
If I had my time again, I probably would have gotten an Xbox controller but there you go. It’s still a great controller.
Works perfectly on my pc paired via Bluetooth.
Wireless, rechargeable, what more could you want?
Top reviews from other countries
TLDR: This is a reliable, comfortable controller that easily connects to Switch, PC, mobile, etc. and allows you to customize tons of stuff in the app, set different button layouts, adjust stick sensitivity and deadzones, vibration control, and more, and even the motion controls are quite good on Mario Kart for example all at an affordable price point. Only real downside is no NFC and inability to wake the Switch with the controller (as far as I know). 10/10 recommend!
Por el precio, realmente se encuentra dentro de lo razonable tomando en cuenta sus diversas funciones de compatibilidad con diferentes dispositivos:
-Switch
-PC o MacBook
-Android
Sin mencionar su alta capacidad de batería de 20 hrs de uso. Lo cuál, es bastante considerable.
Simplemente un buen mando accesible a cualquier bolsillo y con garantía de calidad.

Ta wersja jest sporo lepsza. Możesz softwareowo zdefiniować trzy różne konfiguracje dla trzech różnych gier, które są wybierane z poziomu joypada i sygnalizowane białymi diodami •••
Instalacja jest dziecinnie prosta dzięki dedykowanemu oprogramowaniu.
