IPEGA PG-9087s Bluetooth Gaming Controller Dual Motor Turbo Gamepad for Android/iOS for iOS iPhone,iPad, Android Phone, Smartphone / Tablet / Smart TV / Set Top Box

Positives+ Solid device, well built+ Software, although rated poorly on app store, worked well on my Android 10 Xiaomi phone. You can use this to map the game pad to any game+ Fits phone size of 6.5 inches with case on, and room to spare for an even bigger phone+ Arrives charged out the box+ I did not find any issues of comfort with the analog sticks, contrary to other reviews+ Came with instructions that match another review, and unlike some reviews stating that there were no instructions+ The software has presets for some (I am guessing) more common modern gamesDrawbacks- Not exactly plug and play, but it works and you can adjust its profile to match your games. Played with PPSSPP (Manhunt 2) and GTA SA and LCS, however all of these required mapping by myself before being able to use the control- Mentions a lanyard / wrist strap that should have been included, but wasn't. I should note the box was completely sealed, so I do not know what happened- Vibrate function doesn't work, despite me trying numerous times- There are multiple lights which I guess mean modes, named 1 to 4, but honestly I cannot find anywhere (manual or software) as to what these means. Mine stayed stuck on oneOverall, the positives outweigh the negatives. It's a cool little inexpensive device, and makes playing games much more fun. You won't be disappointed for what it is.

My low star rating here is NOT about the device itself, but rather the selling of it without all the relevant, current, information needed. All the info and reviews I read about this item made it sound awesome, so I bought one for my daughter who plays Fortnite on her iPhone 7. We followed every instruction in the very limited manual, managed to get the iPhone to see the gamepad, and connect to it. But, although connected via Bluetooth, the game pad still does not work.There was no mention of this issue in the product info, and I can't find any way around this, other than to revert my daughter's iPhone to the previous iOS, which Apple do mot support.I have written to all companies concerned, and have had not one single reply!

I've had this for a few weeks, feels very nice in the hands, good size and well made, no problems so far.It's great for twin stick shooters like PUBG or COD, also good for Pro Evolution Soccer and Street Fighter, most games where they put buttons in regions of the screen.I wasn't able to get it to work as a controller in games like Final Fantasy or X-COM. These games are supposed to let you move a cursor around by pressing the buttons on the controller, you can't use this controller to do that.Doesn't have an option to play games in portrait mode that I could find, so I can't play stuff like Mario Kart where the screen supposed to be in portrait.Works well with an iPhone XR but I wasn't able to do anything with it on my Mac.

The controller feels okay and holds my phone well. the bluetooth connects nice and quickly. I will admit I'm am having an issue with a control stick but I'm in discussions with the seller to hopefully solve this.

I bought this primarily to replace my nvidia shield controller that broke, and I also wanted to use it to play emulated games on my phone. I very nearly returned it, as it would sync but the buttons would not do anything. However, after some internet digging i discovered there is a second way to connect to your device which isnt explained in the instructions. Hold the home button and "x" at the same time to sync in gamepad mode, and ta-daaa ! i can play my old retro games on my phone absolutely perfectly, and I dont even have to map the buttons in my emulators which is a bonus. I do have to take my cover off my phone for it to fit though as it is slightly too big with the cover on ( my phone is 6.3").Overall, a very good controller once you sync it in gamepad mode, i have no idea what the other mode is for .

Really disappointed, this device is not compatible with latest iOS, and there was no indication of this. Product details simply say compatible with version 11 and up. I had to find out the hard way. Otherwise build quality is good and it holds the phone secure, I was really looking forward to this. Such a let down. The only option would be to downgrade iOS to an earlier version (if still supported) and risk loosing data not backed up.**UPDATE**Having since looked into it, apparently the issue here is with iOS 13.4 Bluetooth compatibility issues, this has effected other brands such as GameSir. This should still be updated on the product details by the seller. I have added a star and urge you to consider this one when looking to purchase. May work fine for android users or those on a lower iOS

I will add photos to this at one point, but this as worked eventually for me. one thing i will point out right from the off is that you have to charge it fully first before you use it, or it wont work.......this was not mentioned in the in the instructions included, but it is definitely worth noting :DI've used it for playing portal knights on my phone (google pixel 4) and the emulators vgba next and ppsspp which have both worked well. the GBA emulator works better than the PSP one but that's kind of expected for the price of the thing.I initially downloaded every possible key mapper for the controller to work with my phone (i.e. octopus, v3 shooter plus etc.) which you connect by holding the home and A button to connect with "key mapping" mode.But in the end the thing just ended up working without any app support on the apps i have downloaded for it using the home and the X connection mode which is called "Android Standard Mode" on the instructions.So, overall i think its a solid purchase for what you're getting for it, just don't expect top grade 'clicky' buttons on this thing, like the d-pad, as some idiots on here seem to make a note of it not having. This, in my opinion, works pretty damn well for what i use it for :)
