Tronsmart Mars G01 2.4G Wireless Game Controller Gamepad for Android Cell Phone/PS3/Android Tablet PC/MINI PC/Android TV BOX

I'm very upset that I have ever spent money on any other wireless controller.It is not bluetooth. Let's be clear on that. It operates on radio technology.Box: It comes in a well decorated box with simple instructions, the usb receiver, and a dongle micro usb for your phone.Build: This thing is solid. Feels just like an Xbox 360 controller. I really appreciate the rubber grips on the side. It has a sturdy build and has survived the occasional frustration drop from playing donkey kong 64.Use: This is the best wireless controller I have ever purchased. PERIOD. If I want to plug it into my MAME aracade to run N64 or NES emulators, it is perfect. Takes brief configuration depending on your emulator, but once it is set up you will never have to reprogram it again.If I'm going on a flight and want to play games on my phone? No problem, plug the dongle into my phone and we are good to go. It automatically syncs with most android based games, and takes brief programming for emulators.The sticks are highly sensitive, which is great for fast paced twitch gaming. However, it makes those precision movements on older N64 games very frustrating. Which is not the controllers fault, so just a warning there.Battery:I frequently forget to charge this controller, because it always seems to have battery life. It automatically shuts off when you aren't using it (some reviewers said you need to unplug it, not true, you can just leave it untouched for a few minutes and it will shut down).But really, I've gotten two weeks of heavy play time (DK64 is a really long game), out of this on its first charge.Cons:Sometimes you press the button to switch pairing modes, and it can be a little confusing to which mode works best with which device.Who is this for?Are you a gamer that loves emulators? Buy this, it will work across multiple devices. Looking for a PC gamepad? This is also a good option, solid build, comfortable fit, cheap price.

Let me make it clear I am very new to the otg concept. I have never attempted to use a controller on my Kindle before. I have found through research that it will not work with the older Kindle tablets. I have three, and I know for sure it does not work with my 7inch (2nd Gen) Kindle tablet. It has to be otg compatible so if you have an older fire tablet research it before you buy this controller. It also will not work with the Fire Tv Stick. This controller is not Blue Tooth, and only Blue Tooth controllers work with the Fire TV Stick. I do not have an Amazon Fire TV ( the one with the box ). It is suppose to work with that. I can not say for sure, but from what I have read it works well.I purchased this controller for my kindle fire HD. At first I was very frustrated. The instructions were not as clear as I would like. I was not even sure which cord was which. The pictures on the box looked the same. After some trial and error I determined that the short cord is the otg cable and the dongle attaches to that unless your using a PC then it plugs directly into your pc. (The dongle is the little usb thing that looks like a wireless mouse or other peripheral adapter.) The other usb cord is for charging the controller. It has a great battery life so far!So after I got it figured out I plugged it (the otg cable with dongle) into my Kindle Fire HD 10 (5th Generation) Tablet. Then pressed and held the blue button for about five seconds. It then connected to my Kindle no problem. I have not tested that many games yet, but so far I can confirm that it does work well with Doom & Destiny, Doom & Destiny Advanced, Bards Tale, and Justice Chronicles. It does not work with Terraria. Sometimes you have to tap the Kindle for things like saving, or starting, but other than that all other functions work well with no need for assigning the buttons. It's all automatic. I do not know about the vibrate function I don't use that, it is annoying so if it has one I don't know.The biggest downside to this controller that I have found is that I can not charge my tablet while I use it. I researched different cords so that I could use the otg cable and a charging cable but it says that only charges the peripheral device in this case the controller and not the tablet.Example: https://www.amazon.com/kwmobile-adapter-Amazon-Kindle-splitter/dp/B00SLIHIJY/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&qid=1469752222&sr=8-21&keywords=otg+cable+power+port+kindle (NOTE: Some external USB devices will need additional power. The micro USB port will provide this electrical power only to other external devices and will not charge your tablet.)I am still looking into other cord options, but have not found anything definitive yet.So for me the instructions were lacking for someone of my obvious ineptitude, and not being able to charge my tablet while I play are the only drawbacks I have found.I love the feel of the controller it feels solid and sturdy like it will last a good long time. It has excellent battery life. There is no need to program the buttons, I think that is what they mean by plug and play. I'm not sure. I like that it is versatile and I can use it on my tablet as well as my PC with out messy cords in the way. (even the otg cable is short and not restrictive) Overall it is a great controller with a good price. I think I would have been happier with a Blue Tooth controller, but that is just because of the charging issue and the fact that it does not work with my Fire TV Stick. I am still very happy with the Tronsmart Mars G01.

First of all I use this with my gaming pc and TV, I made the switch from consoles to pc this Gen with a homemade rig. I have been using a corded 360 controller for a while. I really like the 360 one but the wireless option is almost 70 bucks for everything. This is way cheaper than a Microsoft wireless controller, usb controller adapter and rechargeable battery pack . it's well constructed, the buttons and sticks all feel very similar to the Microsoft 360 controller. But the buttons are a little closer together and the dpad is a little better. It's mushy but is a cross instead of a disc. The rubber grips are very comfortable and the controller overall feels very nice. I highly recommended this controller as a wireless solution for pc. It can also charge from any Micro USB adapter while being connected to the computer. I have tested this controller on Dark Souls and Farcry4.

This controller works very well with whatever platform I use it on. I just plugged it in and it worked. Great for plugging into a PC for some relaxed casual gaming, and worked equally well when I plugged it into my tablet to use with an emulator. The only downside is that the dongle takes up the charging port of the tablet, so make sure you are charged up before any long gaming sessions. Speaking of which, the battery life on the controller is very good. It also fits my hands very well, and is light as a feather without feeling like cheap plastic. It also is modeled after the Xbox 360 controller, which would be my favorite controller of the last generation. If you like your 360 controller then you will like this.
