VR Headset Remote

Like many of the other reviewers, I use this as a controller for a digital flashcard app (Anki). My first one broke after about 3 months - when I would click the main button (the one you would use for advancing a slideshow), it would often send multiple signals, messing up my progress. I was annoyed with this and prepared to knock a star or two off (because it had otherwise worked very well and was very cheap) before I checked the app and saw I'd used it 75,000 times in that 3 months. So if you use it an absolute ton it will eventually break, but for the price I feel like 75,000 uses is pretty darn good.

Controller works for iCade games, which basically acts like a keyboard using WASD for the joystick. If connected to a PC it recognizes it as a keyboard. Unfortunately, it doesn't work like a normal gamepad so it doesn't work for other games that need a controller. If it was programmed like a gamepad, it would be better since you can also use it on PC as well. For the price, it's not bad in quality. It feels very comfortable in the hand.

Very unreliable. I am not sure if it is shorting out or the antenna inside doesn't work, but the device keeps resetting every 2-3 seconds (you can tell when the LED light starts flashing). I was able to pair the controller, but then it disconnects 2-3 seconds later and then keeps connecting and disconnecting. I am sure that if it stayed connected, this would work very well because for the brief 2-3 seconds, it does show up as a USB controller. I believe this is a build quality problem.

Very happy with items

I wanted an Anki controller. The 8BitDuo Zero is the go-to choice but they don't have a joystick, which is what I was mainly looking for, that way I could control my cursor and click on things and/or set it to scroll, and other models/brands are still a bit too big or too expensive. It took me a while to set this one up (almost gave up) because the buttons are not mapped correctly *at all*. I had to use the Contanki add-on (This is the number to download/install it, you'll need to: 1898790263) to remap *Every. Single Button* manually, which took a few hours. The controller has a tiny red light that flashes to let you know when in pairing mode, when connected, and flash when the batteries are low (takes 2 AAA batteries). Except, I installed fresh new batteries from the store, and yet it keeps flashing? Lastly, the small power and menu buttons sometimes have to be pressed harder/multiple times to induce an action. In general, the controller feels cheap, but it is well built, so good value for the money. If the 8BitDuo Zero had even one joystick, like the Lite model (which has two) and they managed to keep it small, I'd get it instead. Overall, I would recommend it if you're patient and Anki savvy. Once you get it to work it does so flawlessly.

Tried to use as a game pad for NFS, I am not a gamer just to have fun in PC so I don't like to invest on joystick or two hands game path. Even though NFS game recognizes the device as a game pad, is not real time responsive as you like. So, car movement is really bad, only good thing the acceleration key, perhaps you can trigger in FPS games but you will not move as fast as you wish. Conclusion do not use as a game pad.

I liked the fact that it paired nicely with my Sony Xperia XZ Premium. Now I have advancement and volume control of my 3D slide show without having to reach inside the VR headset to swipe the screen! I had used the Sony BRH10 control, but as those age the BRH10 seem to loose the ability to hold a charge. This game pad controller takes AAA batteries, no problems there. Once this is paired I simply set the sides switch to game mode and control the show with the joystick. It is thicker than the BRH10, Works well for my purposes. If you want to replace most of the functions of the BRH10 remote control, at a reasonable price, this is perfect.

I tested it with my Samsung Galaxy S21 and could use pretty well with the phone. The real reason I bought it was to see if it would work with Ronin App and I could use it to control my original DJI Ronin S gimbal with it. It actually worked. Figuring out the button assignments is a lot of trial and error, but it worked pretty well. You have to remain connected to the app on the phone to control the gimbal, but it works as a good low budget solution if you still own the original Ronin S. The only caution is that I dont know how well this will work with other phones and device, YMMV.

I bought this controller knowing full well that it's not designed for actual VR, but it's great for playing video games that don't require complex, timed input. I've been using it to play visual novels and point & click games and it's honestly great for that, super comfy, but not so great for fast-paced games that require combos. The mouse mode is great for visual novels and the controller mode is great for RPG Maker. Only downside is that even though the description says it supports xinput, the controller actually uses direct input, so it doesn't get picked up by some remapping software, like ReWASD, and requires tweaking with software like x360e or XPadder to get it working with certain engines, like RPG Maker.

Works well with my VR headset

Responde perfectamente a las acciones que se quien realizar tanto en los juegos como en los videos de RV

It works but is not intuitive. Instructions are spotty.
