  3.0 out of 5 stars A workable option but build quality not amazing

  You get what you pay for sometimes in the retro controller market.
  
  Pros:
  
  These are very cheap. I don't know of another workable controller that you can get at this price point. Hardly any lag on a retropie setup, effortless install (just plug in and go), and no signal issues. They arrived on time and the shipping packaging was fine.
  
  Cons:
  
  The major issue here is battery life. After pretty much every 1-2 gaming sessions we are having to recharge. By contrast my 8bitdo controllers last at least 15 sessions.
  
  These also feel quite a bit lighter than the originals (probably because of battery size). For me thats a con, although others may actually like that.
  
  Ultimately this is still a very usable option. However, I would personally go into the next tier with the 8bitdo 2.4g controllers if thats an option.
