EasySMX Wired Gaming Controller,PC Game Controller Joystick with Dual-Vibration Turbo and Trigger Buttons for Windows PC/ PS3/ Android TV Box/Tesla(Black)

Had this for 1 month and I game HEAVILY and this controller seems very tough. The rubber grips on the handles feel strange at first since I'm not used to them but they do help in keeping hands cool if you have sweaty hands while gaming.Size is about the same as an original Xbox controller, the triggers and bumpers are fantastic. Very smooth and responsive. My only drawbacks and these are mostly personal preference are the joysticks and the color buttons.The color buttons are of a blocky feel but while some might believe that they are input delay like other blocky buttons, these are quite responsive. There is slight delay but it is almost imperceptive that I often wonder if I imagine it. Lookalikes tend to have the smooth buttons from original but usually develop failures like blemishes on the cylinders or the tactile rubber pad underneath develops tears that lead to button sticking.The joysticks have small heads and they are very smooth compared to an original which have more resistance. I fear stick drift but the sticks on this are sealed for dust, we will see with time how the soft sticks behave. I'm a guy but have small hands and small fingers yet the joystick heads feel small, perhaps its the style of bevel on the rubber that creates a "cup" on the head which makes it feel smaller than it is.I will say the rubber bevel with textured grip are amazing.I'm very satisfied with it and I see myself buying these as my default replacement and my new product for my PC controller needs.

Ask any gamer who's been playing for a few years all they will all tell you the same thing, "Controllers are ripoffs" and we're not talking about the special limited edition ones. From the $80 for a new pair of Joy Con for the Switch, $60 for a PS4, or the absurd $300+ for Xbox Elites, controllers are over priced and either don't offer enough to justify their price or offer TOO MUCH that you don't need/never use to inflate the price.The EasySMX, though a bit dated now, is none of that. I've owned several for a few years now and they are comfortable enough for long term gaming hours while sturdy and weighted enough to not have to worry about breaking by accident. Trust me, I had to toss my first one like 4 or 5 times against a wall to even get one of the buttons to start sticking and it still worked for the most part.The design is good, following an Xbox style, but not always the best. The central LED light is very bright and a bit blinding. I would recommend putting a piece of tape or a sticker on it to cover that up and not hurt your eyes. Trust me, you can still press the button even with a sticker on it. Another thing that is kind of hard to explain, but the XYAB buttons are a bit too... rounded? I've only noticed this problem when I'm playing a racing game which requires me to hold one button continuously for a long period of time, but the shape can be a bit painful after a long while. I feel like it should be a bit more concave, but again these are very minor complaints I can overlook thanks to the inclusion of the Turbo function.The Turbo function is an amazing gift that not enough controllers in this modern day include which is one of the main reasons why I like the EasySMX as it is always included in regardless of it's design model from what i've seen. Now, as an older gamer I have early signs of arthritis in my right hand, particularly around the thumb area. So having a game that requires me to button mash a single button over and over again, looking at you Devil May Cry or other combo action games, is actually painful for me. Being able to turn these multiple mashes into a single press to ease the stress on my hand when I feel it is becoming too painful is amazing. There is no doubt in my mind that I'm able to continue playing certain games ssimply because this controller offers this simple overlooked feature.Overall the EasySMX is a great controller most average gamer needs. Simple and functional with a price that won't break your wallet in these trying times. From a long time user of this controller, trust me. I went from owning one and now I have three. I have not used another controller that has felt as good and easy to use as this one. Even replaced my Steam Controller with one.

Good controller. Got this to play on my PS3 I took out of storage. Works well.sticks and buttons are responsive.The only problem I have with this is the cord length. As TVs are larger now the short cord makes it feel like you're right up on the screen. A 10' cord would be much better but they probably won't change anything.Still, it works great and is at a good price.

The media could not be loaded. So the 5 stars is based heavily on the fact it works with steam deck out of the box. It is definitely a flawed controller, but i can not confirm if its the controller or the way it interacts with the deck. Lets get the flaws out of the way.1. It vibrates nonestop when you press L2. For me, a non-issue. I just turn off vibration2. The Right stick deadzone randomly changed everytime I used the steam deck calibration. Again non-issue for me. I made the deadzone wider3. Button and controller feel cheap (will report back if anything breaks)Ok with the negativity out of the way, IT WORKS WITH STEAM DECK. I don't know why its so hard to find a 2.4 ghz wireless controller for the deck but it is. Ive used many bluetooth controllers like playstation 4 and xbox one and both have terrible input lag. I tried the new 8bitdo controller and half the buttons didn't work right in game. I randomly decided to try this controller because I like purple and it just works? Like the gameplay with it feels solid enough, theres no input lag, connects right out of the box, so for me, this is the perfect controller to travel with to make my steam deck feel like the mini console it is. I guess it should be obvious but I'm using a usb-c dock to connect the dongle to. Also a plus is this controller charges via usb-c, which it also included (a cord no brick). All and all I'm satisfied past the few gripes I mentioned. Attached video is showing it works in menu and using the dolphin emulator. I tested it on other games such as God Of War and Earth Defense 5 and all controls worked no problem.
