A Touchpad to Aim, a Joystick to Move! IFYOO GTP01 Pro Honest Review

[@garykeyes1083]

Woah what the heck is this controller? Thank you for gracing us with your amazing review skills for this mythical controller.

[@kenshinbattousai374]

An abomination. That's what it is.

[@ChuvakSuperStar]

У меня 2 таких, один с проводом другой с гироскопом. Трекпадом совсем не удобно играть, только если противник на средней дистанции, если он сзади иди долеко вам не выжить!!! Этому геймпаду не хватает второго аналога для камеры, и расположения верхних четырех и основных четырех кнопок как на других геймпадах!!! И вы постоянно будете страдать от аналога отвечающего за кнопки wsda они живут своей жизнью!

I always appreciate how FUN you make your reviews. You’re very honest and have a great attitude when making your videos. Keep it up.

[@hiepbenh88]

After 2 week learn to use gyro, almost get silver rank valorant :) Yess i totally agree the touchpad is too big it's make you harder to use scrooll and 4 buttons under

4:49 is that background song the one from SpongeBob when he’s dancing with the jelly fish? 😂

[@gideonakor]

Yep, I have one. been using it since January. it took me a while but right now i’m really good with it. I don’t really understand what you mean by not remapable tho. maybe it’s an issue for people who wants to use it on consoles🤷🏽‍♂️ . For me i game on PC, and just as any keyboard and mouse every button can be remapped in-game. For me i always switch the right and left clicks around, in any game i play to get that right and left trigger feel. Also all the buttons on the left has alternate functions which you can always use by holding down the fn button at the back. for example the esc button is also an enter button when you hold fn before pressing. Infact all the necessary buttons from an actual keyboard and mouse which most games use by default is right there 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@EeK9X]

But can you remap the buttons on the controller itself (not changing what each key does in-game)? I'm planning on using this controller with only one hand (for movement), paired with a mouse on the other hand (for aiming/shooting), and I'd like to remap whatever buttons are bound to mouse clicks on the controller, since I'll be using an actual mouse, and having repeat inputs is no good. Also, can you disable gyro completely? It's impossible to find any documentation for this device online.

[@gideonakor]

@@EeK9X Ok let me put it this way. don’t think of it as a regular controller, but as a regular keyboard and mouse combined. The joystick is automatically your “WASD” keys for movement. and yes you can use it with another mouse on your right hand. I tried it once but it kinda felt weird. personally i prefer my thumb on the trackpad but hey that’s just me. Yes the gyro can be disabled. it’s even disabled by default, and you can even set it to trigger only while you are holding a specific button. I would have made a video if i could but i’m not a fluent speaker.

[@hameerz]

@@gideonakor yoooo finally an actual user. Few questions, personally do you feel it to be better than using a standard controller? Is the touchpad actually sensitive enough to not have to use gyro? Already have a portable enough gaming setup but am seriously considering the Steam Deck only cause of the touchpads. Assuming you've tried the Steam Deck, how does this controller compare to the Steam Deck's? ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

[@gideonakor]

@@hameerz Honestly, it depends on the game I play. i still prefer my standard controller for most Adventure games like Elden ring, Assasin's creed, sekiro e.t.c standard controllers such as Xbox and PlayStation controllers still can't be beaten when it comes to comfort, and that's where this controller falls a bit short, the way it's built. but I prefer using this when I play FPS games like Apex or The finals and when I play MMORPGs like Black desert Online for fast mouse navigation. you can adjust the sensitivity of both the touch pad and the gyro, and you can use it with gyro turned off. And another thing I had to get used to is that since this controller is only recognized as keyboard & mouse input, you don't get any aim assist. I haven't tried a steamdeck yet, but I'm seriously planning on getting one. Although I think the trackpads should be similar and if they are not, we can always set it to fit our playstyle.

[@hameerz]

@@gideonakor my man 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@jonathont5570]

Steam controller is great, I have 4 new in box. This one I bought wired and wireless and its great for FPS shooters once you get used to it or PC.

[@carlosbarreto4695]

I want to buy this controller, but one thing that is holding me back is that there isn't an option to activate the gyroscope when you touch a button or the trackpad. It's always on or off. And it seems there is no firmware update to this gamepad.

[@astreakaito5625]

What the hell is that th- Oh? This could be interesting? I'm a pc gamer but because of nerd reasons I play on a big tv without kbm in front of it and a gamepad-ish alternative to kbm could be neat. Usually a simple Dualsense with gyro app does the trick for me though.

[@jacooler8442]

Pls review the Alpakka controller. It has the most advanced gyro sensors

[@NoMisZx]

i see Alpakka comment, i like😃

[@arro-pie]

This is a kind of dope little controller!!! But no remapping is CRAZY!!!! Great video as always.

[@xtremefps_]

Hope your life is improving my guy. Excellent review big ups

[@micah4539]

I’m tired of hearing people say the controller has a “big learning curve” NO the trackpad actually sucks. You don’t know this because for some reason you chose bought a touch controller while also never having used touch input in your life. Touch input should NOT feel like this. It should not be this inconsistent. You should not have to learn how to negotiate with the device to do something as simple as track a moving target. The only way to get them to change anything in the next version is to outwardly state the shortcomings of the device as opposed to just saying “it’s a learning curve”. The polling rate for the pad is way to low and on top of that it’s not even consistent. depending on how hard and how fast you move your thumb for the exact same distance of space you can get massive differences in output. Most of the time moving it at the same speed and distance will land you inconsistent results. Light swipes barely get registered if it all, and if you don’t fat finger the pad while making motions it will straight up choose to not register large portions of what you’re inputting. Frame skipping is also a major problem in almost every game I’ve played with the device. Like using a mouse with an ungodly low dpi set to it. I am so sick of seeing reviews of people who very clearly have never touch mobile gaming talk about the input on this device while stating that “it’s just a learning curve and that you have to get used to it” and enabling the manufacturer to not fix anything while encouraging people to still buy it.

[@vCuda]

I’ll look into this when I have more time, I have projects in the works right now. The info seems useful and I appreciate it, but for now I’ll just say this. Something I’ve had to learn doing my job is that presenting people an idea/information through emotional hostility does nothing. I’ve struggled with this myself. Maybe those other reviewers you saw, seen your comment, but decided not engage because you come off as someone you can’t talk to lmao

[@sigel2685]

Man I love your review style. You are funny and not funny at the same time which is awesome.

[@muaythai193]

If you’re on the go this could be great for racing sims jnstead of a controller. If you every tried steering with your mouse you know it’s much more precise than the stick.

[@colbyboucher6391]

It's really bad that the gyro is mediocre, because I'm pretty sure the whole idea here is that you can use the trackpad to swipe around and the gyro for actually aiming, because when gyro works, DAMN does it work. If it was as good as Sony's gyro this thing would actually be super cool. Still is, but, y'know.

[@Costinmusca]

We already have PROPER, ACCURATE Gyros on first party controllers like the DS Edge.. That makes pretty much everything but dedicated HID devices irrelevant, including this here thingy.. I mean, the gyro on it may be useful (if just as accurate as the one on the DSE that is.. ) but the lack of the second analog stick makes it a downgrade from a Gyro controller, especially the DSE I believe the DSE currently is the one and only full solution (take away the SHIT BATTERY) for playing any type of games (well, bar racing and flight sims or what have you.. )

[@Bakamatsu-GojiFanArchive]

You get a lot of comments so idk if you'll see this but I hope you're doing well. Everyone has their issues. Some worse than others. So seeing someone I can relate with push through the worst gives me hope too

[@dufte]

I like this controller, but I do have some feature requests, such as a trackball mode for the touchpad and gyro activation like on the Alpaca controller, which also works when the touchpad is touched. Otherwise, a very interesting concept.

[@irollerblade13]

can you use this accompanied with your mouse at the same time? I seriously just want to tr something like a maybe like quest controller in my left hand and mouse in my right. I just switched back to pc gaming after like a decade and a half (im 32) of playing console when I had time to play. I've seen the half keyboard with joystick but seems wierd to me trying to control a joystick without holding onto it idk muscle memory is what im thinking. Anyway nice review you got a new sub.

[@sevn8757]

I have this and its a great controller, been using it on trepang 2 lately. To sum it up you're still battling people with aim assist online. If you're a try hard dont buy it. If you want to get away from aim assist and compete, its doable. I dont use the gyro though if you like gyro get a ps5 controller

[@tps2]

The worse thing I can think about this controller is the inversion of the mouse buttons in relarion do a gamepad, they put left mouse in the left which is shoot and right which is aim in the right, when it comes to triggers it is usually the other way around

[@rediculousman]

I've been looking for a steam controller replacement. How do you find it as an alternative? Can you set gyro to only enable while touching the pad?

[@brunoob-1]

Bruh whats with the thumbstick 😂 But im curious on if this will be any good on say overwatch or something idk Tho would this be fun for small indie games on steam? Like Platformers or other

[@Eternal-pj8zh]

The perfect controller to play Kid Icarus Uprising. Which is shutting down in 2 days btw

[@starcasm8590]

I think you did it already, but the LB/RB buttons on the XBOX Elite 2 controllers have got to be the Cheapest on the planet & MSFT needs to be barked on.

[@nimrodpaul6875]

This thing works. Received it yesterday and I'm already liking it because some of those games that flatout don't work right this really does work, the wireless is perfect so far att 22 feet on my couch. It fits right in the hand surprisingly, it feels a little cheap but doesn't seem cheap, I know that makes little sense. The track pad is amazingly accurate to me

[@gnarman1358]

I’ve had mine about a week now, if they had some kind of software where you could remap the buttons it’d be a lot better. I don’t love it but I also don’t hate maybe with some time it will feel better. The one on the got also doesn’t fully engage all the gryo modes, emailed them last week still no response.

[@wmv8996]

One concern I have is some games might look at the controller as a foreign device and just blacklist it from working in the game.

steam controlelr is better in my opinion

[@Jhonathcosta99]

Can you use it on your cell phone?

[@user_Z-]

i bought this and a steam controller about 2 months ago. i still suck with them both lol. the biggest downside is how cheap the touch pad feels and how you really have to crank the sensitivity up to even try to compete in pvp games

[@CandarianGaming]

Speaking for the steam controller, the track pad is good for looking around but you need to use the gyro for aiming. Using the trackpad only is just a waste of time

[@gebongstoner7595]

Weird but dope as hell..

[@p0p_f4rts]

Best review to date

[@esportsmiyagi]

In your opinions what controller for xbox playing on console so i can't overclock is best. I enjoy the elite series 2 but was wondering if theres better options. I enjoy the thrustmaster but hate the back button design. Ive hear the victrix is pretty good along with the scuf instinct but heard the scuf is costy and the back buttons suck but triggers are amazing. Then theres the razer v2 or v1. Unless theres any other controller?

[@NFTygaming]

Has a crazy learning curve for sure, but definitely fun to use in casuals, nothing competitive really. My wife and kid love using it for Palworld, I found it very entertaining on singleplayers like gears of war, Batman Arkam Knight, and even COD with the Gyro. Never used gyro before and definitely enjoyed it once tweaked to proper sensitivity.

[@TWUG3388]

Hope your doing at least alright, I just saw your other video after remembering your channel name know everything will be ok.

[@day-trishad3937]

I’ve been seeing this controller and was genuinely interested as a controller aficionado just couldn’t justify trying this. One thing I’ve noticed when using trackpads it helps when you wear something on your thumb… usually to put some extra friction between your thumb and pad. Makes it feel more controllable.

[@optionlV]

Didn't know this existed. But very welcome review video. I must admit I'm a filthy gyro gamer (I moonlight as trackball gamer) and was initially interested. But as you started listing the downsides, I would rather just use the Steam Deck controller or an actual mouse and keyboard. Keep it up vCuda! Big thanks.

[@shycreation9418]

Ive been using a controller in my left hand and mouse in my right as my main input for like 4 years. It's highly underated for most games. (I'm very disappointed this controller is only 8 way on the stick. Like whats the point of even using alps)

[@fairplayer916]

god i remember whn you could get steam controllers for like $20 on steam and from gamestop during the last part ofthe og steam machine attempts lifespan. now they are $200 +

[@caleasthetic]

will you also in the future revieuw the steamcontroller? none of the revieuws i saw mention how it works with steaminput and why it was so great input wise. the controller itself may look and feel cheap. but the possibilities with layers and action sets are pretty limitless when it comes to remapping. the reason noody mentions this is because steaminput seems to be difficult to learn for alot of people. The steamdeck feels way nicer in the build quality, but it lacks the dualstage triggers (atleast the physical click).

[@mapi_ll9016]

I have one. The quality is not good but in terms of use it works very well for me. I have not found any remote similar to this one. I recommend it for those people like me who do not know how to play with a keyboard and mouse or it is uncomfortable for them. It's a shame there aren't more controls of this type. I like that the keys appear as if it were a keyboard, it is much easier to map to your liking. I recommend it 100%. The bad thing is that it is made of plastic and looks like a toy. But the use is great. I don't understand why there aren't 100 more models of this type.

[@fwabble]

X10

[@brunoob-1]

7:28 hold on is the grip like on a nintendo switch? Because DAMN the switch is so uncofortable after more then half an hour It like is just so bad for your fingers to get that... one feel

[@NexZu-]

Yeah, I bought it as a gag but actually thought it worked really well. Only reason I don't still use it is because most games don't have profiles for keyboard layout in games. So I have to remake the layout every time I want to switch back to mouse and keyboard normally.

[@lamaj13]

So I have this and quick scoping with this is awesome everything I suck at. I need to give myself some more time with this controller for the SMG's and AR's but I've found that using a combo of the gyro controls and the track pad works the best for the simple point and shoot stuff. Navigating menus and accessing is more difficult for me but that might be because I'm 37 and have only played on traditional controllers like Xbox or PlayStation. I would recommend for a game like COD or something similar. Love your videos by the way bro, keep working it gets better.

[@aura_guardian35]

Personally would like to see a comparison with the steam controller. Also hope more companies make similar controllers that have mouse controls in mind (I hate using the mouse with the joystick). Second hand steam controllers from resellers are not worth the out of warranty and questionable condition.

[@brunoob-1]

I could see this be well good for if someone has a defected hand or something similar *if its the right hand* though i'd think some other controllers could be better

[@richardhunter9779]

The Steam controller is a decent mouse and a REALLY shitty keyboard. I have one. However, it sucks for FPS because of frame pacing issues. The gyro runs at 85Hz and the trackpads run at 250Hz, if I remember correctly, but the end result is precise, but choppy camera movement. They have an upgraded version of the same controls on Steam Deck, with mostly the same drawbacks. I'm not sure why I expect technical excellence from Valve, their things have always been jank, although, incredibly fun jank.

[@pawes7418]

Steam controller's polling rate is 175hz my man. It's way more versatile than any other controllers. After new steam input's gyro to mouse/ joystick beta settings it's output your gyro to 500hz and makes it usable now. You should check out than writing some bs.
