Great for the price, but shame about the dead zones.
Make no mistake, this is an excellent, versatile controller than can transform your tablet or phone into a console-like experience. From my experience, it pairs to android Lollipop and Marshmallow really well, but had a bit of an issue with KitKat, where I always had to make my Nvidia Tegra Note 7 forget the controller before reconnecting.
The D-Pad is fine, I haven't had any problems with it and the L and R are on/off buttons, rather than pressure sensitive triggers - I haven't tried found any issues with this so far.
The biggest drawback of this is the dead zones on the analogue sticks. You can move email the sticks quite far before movement is registered, which makes this a problem for achieving good accuracy in FPS games.
If you don't care for FPS games, then get this product, and you won't be disappointed. But if FPS is your first love in gaming, you may want to go for another controller, but it'll be hard finding one that extends around your tablet like this one.
