Customers are mixed about the touch pad. Some mention it's nice and precise, and comes in handy when using things such as Gamestream. However, others say that it'd be nice if you could adjust the sensitivity or the movement.

Customers have mixed opinions about the buttons on the keyboard. Some mention that they are decent and clicky. They also say that all the buttons actuate well and feel good in your hands. However, others say that two different buttons did not work well, the game does not recognize more than one button at once, and there are too many on-screen buttons.

"...The volume buttons under the joysticks are nice, but can be tricky to use at first and take practice, otherwise it jumps to mute...." Read more

"...Hand placement may be odd for some people though. All of the buttons are clicky and feature your A,B,X,Y buttons, D-pad, L trigger, R trigger, L..." Read more

"...The buttons do not light up, but the middle section (Nvidia logo, back, start, and Android home button do)...." Read more

Battery life is amazing (I've charged it full once
Bought to use with my Nvidia Shield Tablet and have no regrets. Battery life is amazing (I've charged it full once, and it hasn't dropped below 80% yet after ~10 hours of gaming). It's thick and solidly built (like an Xbox controller) but all the buttons actuate well, and feel good in your hands (i t might be a bit much if you have small hands). The wireless connection to the tablet is so fast I never notice any button lag, and the built-in Google and tablet control buttons make it so you almost never have to touch the screen itself if you don't want to.Shame these aren't more readily available, because it's a fantastic controller. I would recommend the ShapeWays UTORCASE mount for it, and it transforms it into basically a really sophisticated Gameboy.I will say it collects hand oils and dust quite easily (because of the material) so it needs a bit of regular cleaning.
