It's simple to set up, just plug and play, it works, no wires to get tangled up with. I've not had it long enough to comment on how quickly it goes through batteries.

Quite a good wifi (yes, not bluetooth) game controller. Good value for money. Only whinge is that there doesn't appear to be any "official" product documentation, although bits can be glean by surfing the net. Very pleased overall, I use mine to control a raspberry pi zero based robot car (self built) which uses Mecanum wheels - great fun. Recommended.

Kids love them. They've been using them with their Scratch coding and making games. Only problem is that sometimes (we have 2) each controller swaps over to the other's computer which is short of ideal. 5 stars if you only need one. Fewer if you want to use multiples together.

Does what it says. Note it runs on three AAA batteries. I didn't want to spend too much on controllers and these were just what I needed.

The controller is as comfortable to use as a genuine Sony product with the analog sticks having a nice resistance to them. The buttons seem to have too much travel and the shoulder buttons are a bit vague. In Retropie there was definite lag. My main issue is with the wireless connectivity which is not very good. I have used this unit with both Retropie and Recalbox on a Pi 4 and while it connects and sets up ok, it will frequently lose the connection meaning I have to reboot the system. I know it's a case of 'you get what you pay for' but I was expecting better. I will be sticking with my wired 360 controller.
