First of all thank you for making this great review. I been looking for original xbox 360 controller on internet for my pc but almost most contollers that advertised as microsoft xbox 360 controller are fake ones with bad analog joysticks, triggers and build quality. After some research i find this controller and decided to get one and now I have this controller for 20 days and its works great so its definitely worth to get.

[@mikesunboxing]

Glad you like it :-)

[@madxracing]

Hey now its been a year but how is the controller now

[@LostRaider1907]

@@madxracing i been using it for almost 2 year when it comes to how good it is i can't make compare to ohters gamepads such as xbox or playstation becouse i never had them but this controller is great i did play lot of different games such skyrim, euro truck and ohter many games and worked without no problem plug it to pc it shows as xbox 360 controller and last thing is analog sticks are quite accurate and sensitive and triggers may not be good as newer xbox controllers but still works great so i would recommend the controller.

Six days after I bought a controller for the same price that I can't get to work on my PC with Chinese instructions and no brand name, you make this video.

[@mikesunboxing]

oops

[@MarkOffski]

Got one, total coincidence Mike was needing a wired controller and up popped your review this morning, thanks for the discount code which got it below the £20 mark.

[@mikesunboxing]

Enjoy!And thanks for using our link :-)

[@nicmonberg5974]

I had one of these didn't even last a year and the replacement was the same. Does feel right in the hands either This is the problem with cheap controllers.

[@mikesunboxing]

i find it to feel great but it is a very subjective thing. I'll try and update the video if there are any issues with reliability going forward

[@davelister6173]

I'm using a wireless version that I managed to get for a €26, £23, during an Amazon flash sale, model EasySMX ESM-9110. Same build quality with extra programmable buttons on the underside of the controller.

[@mikesunboxing]

nice! how do you find it? Good any issues?

[@davelister6173]

@@mikesunboxing It is quite possibly the best third party controller I've ever used. I had tested quite a few wireless controllers before I got the ESM-9110 and they were in the same price range as the one you reviewed in the video and they were all bad they either stopped working after an hour or so or didn't work at all. I had initially avoided trying EasySMX controllers because the only ones they had in stock the time were the EasySMX KC-8236 with a really high gloss finish and the EasySMX ESM-9013 (blue or red trim versions) both of these use battery packs similar to the Xbox controllers and I wanted one with a rechargeable battery pack. So I decided to spend a little bit more and at first I was going to try the ESM-9101 which is the wireless version the one you reviewed in the video at the time they were selling it for €26 on Amazon but I saw the ESM-9110 in a flash sale so I got that instead. I actually got 2 one in November and another in December, also in a flash sale, of last year. The only issues I've had: 1. It comes with no instructions on how to program the extra buttons I only found out how after reading a review on the EasySMX website by someone had purchased it from them. Right now there is a review on Amazon.co.uk that also explains how to reprogram the buttons. 2. Some older games, mostly games published by Sega, Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, Sonic etc. don't recognise it as an Xinput controller running XOutput in the background fixes ii. 3. I managed to break one of the plastic underside buttons so I opened up the controller and added a dab of hot glue to hold it in place and fixed it. I must say it broke after nearly 1000hrs of playtime.

Does this controller come in a left handed version?

[@mikesunboxing]

I am left handed

[@1Hind]

Can you try it with ps3 to see if it's work perfectly or not ? I wanna grab it

[@mikesunboxing]

i'm sorry i don't have a PS3 to test with, but hopefully someone else in the chat might be able to help us

[@1Hind]

@@mikesunboxing Thanks man 💖 . anyway I bought 2 of it , hope it's working good .

[@1Hind]

@MordoBeast yes I got 4 and it work perfectly, but it is better to get wireless gamepad. I regretted to bought wired gamepad

[@GarrettMusic1]

I bought this for my Mac, is it not compatible?

[@mikesunboxing]

not sure sorry, it works like an xbox controller so it those work on the mac then it will also

[@jza80_mkiv]

How do the linear trigger go on racing games such as forza horizon 4, is the throttle/brake response accurate to the amount of trigger pressed ?

[@mikesunboxing]

yes they are analogue triggers and seem to work well

[@OlettaLiano]

I've never been able to use a controller of that type. And the steering wheel and pedals I was going to buy is out of stock at Amazon. Just my luck. I just wish my keyboard has a couple analogue buttons. I think I could play my racing games with that.

[@406mill]

Get a wheel and come join my race team :) # RoR

[@mikesunboxing]

i think i recall someone actually made a keyboard with some analogue arrow keys for that very reason

[@OlettaLiano]

@@406mill That would be fun, but I don't know when it will happen. My damn old ex-police crown vic died. So, I'm saving up for another car. Real cars are apparently more important than sim cars.

[@OlettaLiano]

Thanks,I'll have to look into that.

[@OlettaLiano]

Hi Mike. I looked at analogue keypads and keyboards. I didn't see any that I liked. I went ahead and bought a Xbox 360/PC controller for $29. It had the highest Amazon rating of 80% 5 stars, for what their worth.

[@Abid_Al_Mahmud]

Does this controller still works? How long will it last if I play only casual games like forza and fifa daily?

[@mikesunboxing]

yes it is pretty good quality

[@branislavbenko1478]

Do these controller´s analogs work in all directions ? Because when I bought a fake x360 controller for pc it worked in just 8 directions so playing fifa was more difficult.

[@mikesunboxing]

yes they do

[@JKL_1999]

great video, planning to buy this, does this controller is great quality will it last for a very long time with less wear?

[@mikesunboxing]

It seems to be holding up well and no problems so far

[@StudioHorizonsArt]

Hi, does this controller good for street fighter games?

[@mikesunboxing]

I would think so

[@StudioHorizonsArt]

How this one compare with the wireless version esm-9110 smoke? Apart from the wire and wireless, does the buttons and d pads feel similar? I plan to buy one for playing the new street fighter 6, if they are also the same then will go for this esm-9100 wire version because cheaper 😅

[@jihnsherry4721]

thx for the content man

[@mikesunboxing]

Thanks for watching :-)

[@SaifAliShugan]

is this controller durable? i want to buy only if it can give me 2 years of servicee atleast

[@mikesunboxing]

it will last if you use it responsibly

[@RicardoCifuentesYepes]

Nice review, Mike! Personally I'd rather wireless gamepads. If you were so kind to make a review of the EasySMX ESM-9110 wireless I'd really aprecciate it!

[@mikesunboxing]

Will do! that is next up :-) they sent us both

[@RicardoCifuentesYepes]

@@mikesunboxing Great!!! I'll be waiting for it.

[@PaulBakewell]

I am going to get one of these, looks good to use with my Retro Pi rig!

[@mikesunboxing]

let me know if it works okay, it doesn't say it officially supports PI so would be good to know

[@Deathlock61]

Does the controller still work like new?

[@mikesunboxing]

think so, ny son "borrowed" it and not seen it since

[@skystalker7700]

Great video, Mike! Interesting that it is not XBOX compatible. I am not the target deomographic for this device, as I really only started gaming with a PC. I have no controller time, and when I try to use it, it becomes quite frustrating.

[@mikesunboxing]

thanks Sky, I was never much of a console gamer and go into PC pretty quickly but almost always i would search out a Microsoft xbox controller to use with the PC and i now might be able to finally escape MS grip and save a few £££

[@D_8KEN]

Waiting for the wireless version of this to turn up! :) Excited to play a few driving games on PC, can't get on with a keyboard and mouse for those.

[@mikesunboxing]

These are great for driving games especially ones that require skill like trackmania

[@aqmohra4]

I use a wireless Gamesir G3s controller and its awesome. Works with any bluetooth device.

[@mikesunboxing]

nice!

[@MrJohnLongbow]

Looks like XBox controller, intended for PC, PS3 and Android? 😜👍

[@mikesunboxing]

Yeah is does strike me as odd that it looks and feels like an xbox 360 controller, but isn't
