Very happy with the quality, feels very substantial, easy to set up. Keys a little stiff at times, but feel like they'll wear in pretty quick!

I'm not expert, but this gamepad satisfy me. Already tested with PC Windows and Android smartphone. Still waiting for Raspberry time. Just wondering is rechargeable AAA compatible with this gamepad?

Received the products in just a few days. All is working just fine.

The case is smooth, nice-looking; all buttons operate well. No problems with pairing and button defining @ Retropie. However, there is often issue with wireless channel, which from time to time disappears. As result, in the middle of gameplay, controller just gets unresponsive... 3xAAA battery compartment is big enough, to make a hack - using small Li-Po with some 3-D printed parts isntead of 3xAAA, which makes recharging of accu simpler.

The layout of this wireless, Pi-compatible gamepad matches that of a PS3, with the same number of buttons, plus a 'turbo' (autofire) button. It pairs automatically with the included USB dongle. The sticks are responsive and so are most of the face buttons, although the shoulder buttons are prone to sticking somewhat. Overall this is a solid choice for gaming and/or emulation, although I'd like to see more durable and responsive shoulder buttons.

... I expected to recevie. I will use it to control the robot I'm currently going to build but that will take some more time before it's finished.

got this a couple of days ago to use with Retropie... plugged in and instantly recognised the device. Good feeling and so far seems great on most of the games played on. Transformed one of the seldom used PI 2's into a going-to-be-used-lots device :)
