Uniway GK05 Game Controller Wireless Bluetooth Controller Gamepad PC Controller Joystick For Smart Phones/Tablets With Android System-Black

CrapDoesn't work

When I got this controller, it just simply didn't work at all. I have a Galaxy S7 edge. Needless to say, I sent it back.

Just received this today and the only issue I'm having is the L1 button is stuck I would change my rating if I can get help with this problem.

This is my first Bluetooth controller for a smartphone. I purchased this originally for my Galaxy S7 while playing around with the VR games. It took me a little while to figure out how to pair the darn thing. I mistakenly followed the instructions that came in the box and was frustrated that it wouldn't work. The next day I followed the slightly differnt instructions given in the Amazon description and it worked without a hitch. Easy to pair and play Android games that have gamepad compatability. Oculus games also worked flawlessly.With the VR gear the controller works great and is comfortable enough. Sticks and buttons feel responsive and clicky. What I don't like about this controller is the angle that it holds my phone when playing games using built in clip. If the clip that holds the phone could rotate a full 180° and be secure enough fine tune screen angle in multiple positions, that would be ideal. I didn't measure the angle, but the clip opens about 110° and doesn't position the phone screen straight on in a comfortable playing position for me. For a kid this might not be a problem, for an adult it could be.Overall I think this is a solid controller that works quite well.I received this case for free or for a discount for my honest and unbiased review.

This controller is awesome! This is my first controller for my cell phone and I can't imagine why I didn't purchase one sooner.This is a great controller for gaming on the go. My husband and I are often traveling and it gets a little tiring sitting in the car for hours with nothing to do. This holds my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 perfectly.This controller is super easy to use. Just hook it up via bluetooth and go. The connection specifications are easy to understand Mode (X) for Android games, Mode (A) for games of simulator both for Android Platform, and Mode (B) for IOS games. The mode change feature is fantastic because after connection, ANY mode is changeable.**I received this item at a discounted price or for free in return for my honest and unbiased review after testing and using the product.

I recommend viewing the video I created as I went over my first impressions, how to connect it and get a fitting controller scheme working, and a little demo of it working for me.But for those who like to read, here goes! This arrived very quickly (bless Amazon Prime) and within the first five minutes I had everything up and running. When I first picked up the controller I was a bit surprised by how lightweight it was - I assumed that if I attached my phone to it, it'd fall over backwards! But that never happened as there are two triggers on the backside that stop that from occurring.Now I got the connection to work but I was really confused as all I could do was move around a mouse cursor on my screen! I read over the directions and simply pressed (X) and then the (HOME) button and it seamlessly switched to a 'gaming' configuration.I utilized an N64 emulator to test out all the buttons but the app does something unique: It asks you what kind of controller you are using. Seeing as there was no exact match, I just went down the list until I found that the MOGA A control scheme worked like a charm! The triggers, START button, both joysticks, they all worked flawlessly.I have let this thing sit idly for a few days and it kept its charge. I have yet to subject it to extensive hours of use, but I will amend this section when I do.The one issue I encountered occurred when I had to (sadly) power it off and go back to work. As I typed out a reply to a friend of mine I noticed that the keyboard was different! Yes, as this is considered a controller, Android defaults to the Default 'control scheme,' AKA the standard keyboard. If you are like my and use a keyboard app, this might throw you for a loop! However thanks to how Android works, I was able to pull down the notification tray and switch the input method back to my Swiftkey keyboard. This might just be an issue with my Android's firmware, perhaps this is fixed in newer phones.In the end this was a fantastic purchase and I am really glad I decided to pick this up! However I did get a price reduction for evaluation purposes. Despite this fact, my reporting is totally genuine and reflect my own personal findings and beliefs, so I hope this helped you out!
