## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best game controller I've used.
*by J***N on January 26, 2017*

VERY solid feel and movement for a 3rd party controller. Works great with my AppleTV and my Mac. I highly recommend this controller. It is better than my Xbox and PS3 controllers. Just remember you will need rechargeable AA batteries, which aren't hard to find here on Amazon.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Decent But Ultimately Mediocre Controller That I Don't Use Often
*by T***E on May 5, 2017*

I'm not crazy about this product, but mainly because iOS isn't the easiest platform to work with imho. Once I was able to figure out how to get this connected (about five minutes time) I was able to use this to play a few games with my iPad Pro. The controller buttons and sticks were not as "tight" as I like and felt a bit loose, but overall the quality of the controller is there. It doesn't really stand out as being the best controller, or the worst controller I have used. It's somewhere in the dreaded middle and since getting the controller I haven't even touched it since initially setting up. To be far, I don't use my iPad as much as I should, but really, I just opt for touchscreen controls most of the time as it is easier than pairing this controller and I'm not playing anything competitive.I gave the controller four stars because it's not it's fault that I don't use it very much.

### ⭐⭐⭐ This controller has great construction, buttons feel great
*by R***G on December 16, 2016*

This controller has great construction, buttons feel great. However for an iOS controller be careful. All Stratus models are not compatible with iOS 10 or higher. that includes all iPhones, iPads, iPod touch that is running iOS 10 or higher. Get the Nimbus model instead. The Nimbus model has Bluetooth 4.0 witch seems to be needed to work for iOS 10, along with the MFI certification. This is a great controller for anyone on iOS 9.3.4 or lower
