Reviews around build (4.46 of 5)

  • Excellent build quality and works perfectly with Apple TV 4K. Very solid, better than typical console controllers.
  • SteelSeries has even admitted this fault, stating, "While the Nimbus controller is designed to work on Mac OS X, very few game developers build in MFi controller support for Mac."This controller should not be advertised for Mac users, and should be exclusively sold as an Apple TV/iPhone/iPad accessory.
  • We are not huge gamers but this seems like a very solid, well designed and well built controller
  • I must say that the controller works very well, has good build quality, feels well in the hand too
  • (1 through 4).The controller feels solid and well build, it connects to the appleTV quickly without any issues

Reviews around thing (4.18 of 5)

  • This thing was almost $50, but it simply doesn't work right, which is annoying because I purchased several games on the Apple TV that we aren't able to play with this controller
  • That's a good thing, that means it's solid, comfortable and everything is roughly where it should be.
  • The big variable here is probably build quality, and this thing does feel good in the hands and the sticks and buttons feel solid
  • n’t buy it cuz epic games don’t support controllers anymore!
  • Another good thing about this controller is that it charges with lightning

Reviews around control (4.12 of 5)

  • Makes playing games on my phone way better than clunky and frankly unplayable touchscreen controls
  • n’t be very reliable in terms of compatibility, but Minecraft and KOTOR work great
  • I was very well attended by the boy support Charles, once with change I have tested and excellent control, a well-balanced weight feels pleasant to hold, materials of good construction very long battery
  • Works fine right out of the box, connects to games pretty much all by itself, controls well in the process
  • n’t be very reliable in terms of compatibility, but Minecraft and KOTOR work great

Reviews around game (4.11 of 5)

  • I love the app that tells you what games are compatible with the controller
  • They even have an iOS app that lets you update the firmware while also showing all the great iOS games that work with this controller.
  • DOES NOT WORK WITH FORTNITE OR PUBG MOBILE, sadly as those games were the only reason I bought this.
  • Please make sure the games you want to play have controller support first, but if they do, this is a must have.
  • The left joystick circle button sticks on its own and ruins some games.

Reviews around button (3.91 of 5)

  • What more do you need?Every button (except Menu) is pressure-sensitive: left and right shoulder and trigger buttons, A, B, X, Y, the D-pad, and of course the analog sticks
  • n’t buy it cuz epic games don’t support controllers anymore!
  • not some cheap plastic its durable and the buttons are smooth and clean
  • All buttons and sticks are "stiff", which is great!I use this for Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, and can't imagine a better controller.
