I ordered this controller because of your positive review, however I am experiencing a lot of issues so far. The controller did not turn on right out of the box, after some trouble and googling I managed to recover it using the Steelseries repair software, however that was the best part of two hours gone. After I had set it up properly I found out that a lot of games straight up do not support it. It does not work with Dirt Rally and in other games the controls are weird and reversed. I am gonna return it and get a Dualshock or an xbox controller instead. Very disappointed :(

Just bought one 3 weeks ago. It died, froze, became unresponsive. Tried everything. Tried the Nimbus app to see if it was maybe a firmware issue. App didn’t work either. Sent it back to Amazon and the replacement just arrived today. So far so good. Hopefully this will last a little bit longer this time. Other than that they are good controllers for everything iOS.

I had one of these back when iOS 7, I think it was, first started supporting game controllers. It’s a good controller, but there’s no reason not to use the PS4 controller (or Xbox One if you like it more) with an iPhone... personally I got a second controller just so I could use it with my PC and phone. Plus I use the controller wired to my laptop so it can still connect to my phone with Bluetooth so it doesn’t have to be paired each time!
@AWriterWandering4 жыл бұрын
In my experience MFi controllers are easier to use with multiple Apple devices. My Xbox controller does NOT like being paired with more than one device at a time, meaning I have to go through the entire pairing process EVERY TIME I try to switch it between my iPhone and iPad. With my MFi controller I just have to disconnect from the control center on one device and reconnect on the other. Of course if you’re only going to connect to one device, then this is a non-issue. Also I don’t whether the PS4 controller has the same limitation or not.
