EvoFox Go Smartphone Bluetooth Gamepad for iPhones, iPads & Android | 2 Macro Back Buttons, Dual Vibration Motors, Turbo Mode, Analog Triggers, High Precision Joysticks | Android KeyMap Mode (Grey)

TLDR: Excellent controller. Nice ergonomics, satisfying clicky buttons, natural layout, dual mode (bluetooth for convenience, wired for low-latency), can play PC games, NICE battery life. Preface: I DON'T play PUBG style mobile games or other action based competitive mobile games. I mostly play emulator games (PS2, Dreamcast, Nintendo older consoles), and retro / casual titles such as Bully, GTA San Andreas, Minecraft, Terraria etc. Also PC games via both Moonlight+GameStream (streaming games onto your phones on local network if you have an NVIDIA GPU), and emulator games + AAA/AA games on PC. Please take this into consideration against some of my points. Preference based positives: + L2/R2 are NOT analog triggers, they are clicky buttons instead (but they are DAMN SATISFYING): After being disappointed at first that L2/R2 are not analog triggers, after some usage I realized that I prefer the current clicky buttons instead. Most games I play (including modern day PC AAA titles) use L2/R2 as digital shooting buttons, where this fits perfectly. The only analog usage is in vehicle acceleration control, which I realize I mostly drive my vehicles at full speed anyway, and tappy tap for lower speeds is fine for me. Your mileage on this may vary, but do think about how much you use the L2/R2 as triggers rather than buttons. The L2/R2 clickyness makes them feel very nice, especially in PS2 and Nintendo old era games, where both have historically had digital buttons for L2/R2 (Nintendo still doesn't use analog triggers). This old era of consoles have incredible Android emulators (and incredible games), which one MUST utilize, especially now that AAA games are getting worse day by day. ~ Bluetooth connectivity / no holder-adjacent USB-C connector: Many equivalent controllers that cost anywhere from 1.5x to 3-4x use direct connection on the right side of the holder for direction connection with your phone for low latency / input lag reduction. This is nice, but hear me out. With bluetooth connectivity, I can keep the phone on the table or an external holder somewhere, and play it OUTSIDE of the controller just by using bluetooth. OR if you REALLY want to use the low latency mode, you can connect a cable and get low latency on it (this means you can't keep the phone in the controller holder exactly centered if you use a cable, but you do have the option to keep it in the top half of the holder, which is a nice enough compromise). It might be nice if a second version of the controller addresses this. One issue about the wired mode for Android is that the controller layout becomes the Nintendo Pro Controller layout for some reason (The A/B keys and X/Y keys are flipped. Everything else is the same). Weird, but everything still works. For emulators you can remap the keys to revert this. For Minecraft, I just used the Nintendo layout when wired, it's not bad, just different. But maybe this can be fixed in a future updated version. ~ PC gaming is so nice with this (when wired!) I got the Bluetooth mode working with PC games, but honestly I don't know why but it's a bit iffy. But wired mode? Incredible. Works perfectly, no issues. I have stopped using my XBox layout controllers and I use this with long USB-C cables to play PC games. This was honestly a great hidden feature since they don't explicitly mention Windows compatibility anywhere (or I didn't check it well enough), but as soon as I found this out, I bought another one. Some objectively good things: + LIGHTS CAN BE TURNED OFF!!: How many controllers are there where they give extra-bright lights on the buttons or the center and it hurts your eyes? Both sets of lights in this (buttons + analog sticks) can be turned FULLY OFF. Extremely GREAT FEATURE. + Clicky, satisfying, high quality buttons. The clickyness is honestly great and underrated. + Great build, high quality holder material. + No excessive decals / graphic design on the controller, fairly mature printed on stuff. Other nice features: + Once you disconnect your phone's bluetooth, the device shuts down instead of looking for alternative connections. GREAT! What about cons / issues? Aside from what I've already covered regarding the L2/R2 different approach (which I personally don't mind), for me this is one of those rare items which are actually pretty freaking perfect. The price is incredible, the console is incredible, I haven't charged this once since it came, been playing for 2 weeks or so now (sometimes wired, so that might be charging it back up), but my personal experience has been really great. I would HIGHLY recommend it. I would buy 1000 of them if I could afford it and distribute it to all my friends (Instead I've just been telling them to buy this!) Anything to keep this item from going out of manufacturing! TLDR again: Go for it.

Very cool and easy to use this is the proper gaming device I will give 5 star rating for every quality product the weight is minimum and value to price and it's vibration level and functionality Aaj super cool.

The game pad is good 👍 but R2 button is not working

I recently bought the EvoFox Go Smartphone Bluetooth controller, and I’m really impressed. The build quality feels solid and comfortable to hold, even during long gaming sessions. Pairing it with my phone was super quick and easy, and the connection stays stable without any lag. The buttons are responsive, the joystick movement is smooth, and it works perfectly with the games I play. The phone holder is sturdy and keeps the device secure. Battery life is also quite good, so I don’t have to worry about charging often. Overall, this controller has definitely made mobile gaming much more fun and convenient. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an affordable yet reliable Bluetooth gamepad!

Controller stopped working after 3 days. Doesn't turn on, wont charge up, and will not reset. Even though the controller is decently made, the right analog stick gets stuck when using it indicating poor QA. Buttons and dpad are ok, vibration motors are bad - it uses motors found in cheap phones so poor haptic experience. Dinput/ps4 mode, Xinput and keymapper all of them worked good until the controller dropped dead whe playing. Bummer. Amazon support is getting worse these days, it took them 8days to return the controller and get me the refund, initially the only option was a replacement. For some reason amazon delivery agents simply assume that im not available to return the controller and refuse to come and take the product back, dont pick up the call, dont call me to get the return and replacement done, app will show delivery out and around 8 or 9pm at night the app will show 'delivery attempted but not able to contact customer' this went on and on for 5 days Customer support told me its a behavioral issue from your agents I was able to talk to a supervisor and get a full refund instead, but Had to go through Amazon customer support multiple times This process doesn't have to be this hard and time consuming, amazon Final verdict: not recommended. Go for other better controllers at this 2.8k price range. When ever there is discount then i assume they send a defective unit or refurbished unit as new unit. As this happened to me twice!

Controller is came in very best condition but box of controller is little broken and have some minor scratches but the controller is very best at this price recommended

If you want to play ppsspp games, it connects automatically with the right key mapping. Great for a ps2 emulator as well, for unsupported games you can use the keymapping feature with shooting plus v3 app overall a very good controller, also it works with big phones like s23 and 24 ultra very very good product for the price. The buttons also feel premium. You can also use it with your laptop and smart TV.

Good product but received torn box
