Gamer Heaven also does a really good job when it comes to controller reviews. That's who I usually use when it comes to controller reviews but so far I haven't seen a video for this controller by him yet. I currently use the Gamesir G7 SE and I love it but I wish it had 4 back buttons instead of just the 2 and I of course wish it was bigger for man size hands kinda like my Thrustmaster eSwap Pro but that doesn't use Hall Effect Joysticks unfortunately. This would be my next controller if it had the volume options built into the controller like my Gamesir has. You can not only adjust the main volume but you can also adjust the game slider volume from game to voice chat which is almost a deal breaker for me since I use everything wired. I hate running out of charged batteries and don't like any input lag which they pretty much have finally fixed that issue when it comes to wireless stuff but I'm still old school when it comes to that. Can you use this controller plugged in? I guess I should continue watching the video to see if that was mentioned lol. I'm thinking about getting one of these for mobile gaming so wired doesn't really matter but I would still like to know. Since it doesn't have the volume controls built into it I don't think it will be my replacement for my Xbox X yet though. Someday I'll find my unicorn controller I'm looking for

[@GameTechTalk]

@@cujoman187 Yeah, I've recently bumped into Gamer Heaven's content, I like his stuff, we have very different types of content and I must say, his videos are very thorough. This controller definitely works wired, in fact it lets you change between x-input and d-input when you do instead of Switch Mode, PC mode, etc.... It doesn't work for Xbox Series X, that is of course unless you use a converter after which I don't see why it wouldn't, being that it supports X-input and spoofs an Xbox controller. Cheers and good luck!

[@cujoman187]

Guess I'm confused. It doesn't work for Xbox Series X?

[@cujoman187]

Oh is that cause it's not Xbox certified? Well that and cause I think it has a turbo button which I don't think Xbox would be ok with. Well certain games like PUBG wouldn't be ok with I guess.

[@mattdavis9601]

I'll be honest; I've never heard of this brand/manufacturer before. You certainly gave Mamba an excellent first impression with this review. Judging based solely off the first part of this review I thought this unit was going to be a whole lot more expensive than it turned out to be. Not that $70 is cheap, just that I expected it to cost well over a $100. More proof, I guess, that I should never be a contestant on "The Price Is Right". That screen is something else. This is probably an odd comparison, but, eh, it reminds me of when Mopar (Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep) went from old school odometers to digital. How? One neat thing about Mopars is that they have a built-in scan tool in the dash. Toggle the key on-off-on-off-on and it'll show you whatever trouble codes are in the computer. It's great for the home mechanic. Anyways, old Mopars didn't have a digital display capable of showing the code. Instead it pulsed the check engine light and you had to count the flashes to get the number that corresponded to the code. Much fun, especially if you lost count and it was a multi digit number... I would never! When they went to digital odometers in the late '90s it was great. Now they would show the whole code at once on the digital odometer display. It's so much more convenient. This Mamba is the same way. Most controllers have you count lights and remember arcane combinations, or trudge through a companion app. They're serviceable; but there's a better way. This one has the better way. It displays what you need in the most legible and accessible way possible. Sorry for the wall of text. Not really. Something that is real is that I saw you on the RH Podcast earlier this evening. I thought you did a great job and I hope they have you back on again this year.

[@GameTechTalk]

I laughed way harder than allowed at that shouldn't be a contestant on "The Price Is Right" bit. As for Mopar, I'll be honest, I didn't even know this brand before you mentioned them but what you described had me think of something I saw in a documentary about McDonald's ice cream machines. (From cars to fast food, please don't ask) I think it's the scan tool part, anywho, it's quite a fun documentary, a KZbinr did it. Worth the watch if ever you feel like it! Thanks for that "wall of text" too, learning is always fun and reading what people have to say is my favorite part of being a KZbinr! Thanks greatly for the kind words, I know I ran into you too during that GameSir livestream when they launched the Nova and Nova Lite. Always a pleasure seeing a familiar name. Hoping to run into you during the next episodes, I usually hang in there if I'm not in the middle of editing. Cheers!

[@mattdavis9601]

@@GameTechTalk - Mopar is, IIRC, a portmanteau of the words Motor Parts. It's been Chrysler's house brand for components and service parts for many years. A lot of people use Mopars to refer to all of Chrysler the Company's brands when they need to discuss them as a unit; Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM, and formerly Plymouth and Eagle (RIP). I'll need to check out that documentary. Maybe it'll tell me why McDonald's ice cream machines are never working! Is that a thing in Canada too, or just an American meme? Their reputation for reliability is so bad that we even have a website called "McBroken" that is able to automatically ping the McDonald's app and then it tells you which stores have working machines and which came back as unavailable. Most of the ones local to me are working as of a few minutes ago; but, not the one out by the highway for some reason.

Looks like a good product, but not to sure about the buttons on the bottom since they are just macros, not actually buttons.

[@GameTechTalk]

Right, it’s almost always the case to be fair but there are a few exceptions out there that can fully map outside of the X-input drivers such as the Flydigi Apex 4.

[@cujoman187]

I currently use the Gamesir G7 SE and I love it but I wish it had 4 back buttons instead of just the 2 and I of course wish it was bigger for man size hands kinda like my Thrustmaster eSwap Pro but that doesn't use Hall Effect Joysticks unfortunately and it wasn't really even big enough. Slightly bigger than a regular Xbox controller but not much bigger. This would be my next controller if it had the volume options built into the controller like my Gamesir has.

[@GameTechTalk]

I don't know if your main use-case is PC but if so, when playing Steam titles, it's an easter egg that not many know about but you can control your volume with Home + Right Stick Up/Down (if I recall). But yeah, if you were looking for a volume slider for a console or even mobile phone, you're out of luck. Push comes to shove, you can always try it from Amazon and as they have a great return policy, you'll be safe to do as you see fit. In my opinion, one of the stronger aspects of this controller is definitely the ergonomics, if that speaks to you, it might be worth a try!

If it had the ability to have extra virtual buttons on the screen and a keyboard mapping option it would be an instant buy

[@GameTechTalk]

That would've been an awesome feature! I don't think we've seen a controller with a touch sensitive screen on it yet but you're comment got me excited about the day that we will! As for keyboard mapping, the one controller I can say for a fact that does this is the Apex 4 and I think the Vader 3? I would recommend confirming on the later as I do not have that one but I was told it has many of the features of the Apex 4. Cheers and thanks for engaging!

[@cujoman187]

Oh man just read this and started thinking about a touchscreen controller where you can swipe to text. That would be a game changer when it comes to my fishing game Fishing Planet! When you place markers for your fish you have to enter anything you want within the space limit of course but man it takes forever! On mobile or my Android account it's not bad but on Xbox X man I hate having to do that. Instead of one of those little keyboard things that plug into the bottom of some controllers a touchscreen would be amazing with the swipe option! Then also have an app built into the controller to remap the buttons on the fly. So no leaving your game just to go to the controller developer's app to change stuff. Can anyone say game changer?

thinking of getting one of these to use in steam big picture mode. can the back buttons be mapped in steam input? (I know this bypasses the gimmick of this controller, but I would like to map the back paddles to keyboard keys)

[@GameTechTalk]

Very few controllers will let you do what you described. Wall of text incoming. While the back button can be remapped in Steam Input, the value from the controller itself will not change and the controller does not allow to remap it either. The paddles do not act as new buttons either, they are addressed (remapped) from within the controller as face buttons, shoulders, triggers, etc. In that sense, if you were to remap to keyboard keys (something the controller itself can’t do) that means you’d have to remap the button using external software such as Steam Input. For example, you put A on paddle M1, you’d have to remap A to “Alt+Tab”. If that’s what you mean? You’re fine. But if you meant to leave your A functioning by default while also having the paddle for alt+tabbing as an example then that won’t work. The only controller that comes to mind in recent times that you can do what my latter example described is the Flydigi Apex 4. I have a review on my channel, I strongly recommend it. Cheers!

[@gamebeats8988]

​@@GameTechTalk Thanks! I spent a good chunk of time the past couple of days trying to find a good controller to use with a docked steam deck (I am running windows on it). This particular bit of info (whether the back buttons can be mapped with steam input) is pretty difficult to find. I ideally wanted: - gryo controls - back buttons - button layout to match the deck - controls can be mapped via steam input Thanks for confirming the manba does not work with steam input. I watched your video on the flydigi apex - very neat, I almost got one. However, I was a slightly deterred by having to download an extra program for mapping the back buttons, and from reading some other reviews, it sounds like the gryo isn't great. I ended up grabbing a dualsense edge. This does everything I was looking for except the buttons don't match the deck layout. I was even pleasantly surprised that the two front function buttons can be mapped as well, making up for the two extra back buttons the steam deck has. Quick shoutout to the switch pro controller for being what I was using so far. It doesn't have back buttons, and you have to make a choice about whether you want mismatched button labels or having to futz with controls constantly, but the gryo works nicely. Thanks again for the quick and accurate reply =]

@@gamebeats8988 My pleasure! I assume you already know but in case, the Dualsense Edge paddles can now be configured on PC using a software called DualsenseX! Cheers :)

[@feintexp-2530]

@@gamebeats8988 If you still want controller ideas, the only one I can think of is the Gulikit KK3 MAX. With that controller you can remap the back paddles and other configurations you need from the own controller (make sure you conserve the manual cause you're gonna need it for the button combinations), and you can even physically change the button layout. However, I'm not sure whether if it is compatible with Steam Input and the controller has the issue on having high chances on being defective because of its poor QC (maybe that explains the low price it has). And about the last stuff mentioned, the last time I've heard about the QC thingy was when it was recently launched, I don't know if it as gotten a little better by now

We are looking at a 3 times the price controller but without a doubt the Stealth Ultra is superior. The dock can act as an antenna, it has a 3.5mm jack, it's got a software companion, it polls better as well though they are both capped at 250hz before overclocking.

Just want to say this Mana One controller sucks and is not worth buying. That said, hope their next products are better. Do not fall for reviewers hyping this cheap piece of plastic, spend your money on better stuff. Even a stock controller is better.

Dang, seems like you caught a bad one. Sorry that you did. Mind if I ask what caused you to have such strong words for this product?

@@GameTechTalk Basically the ergonomics are not to my liking, I feel like the controller shell prevents a comfortable grip. I find that the dpad feels very cheap and I found it inaccurate for use in Street Fighter 6. The face buttons are passable but no more than that. I also find the back buttons to be uncomfortable to press though I suppose that can be chalked up to preference. I find that for what the controller costs there are better options out there, including simply spending 10 or 15 more and getting something like a Vader 3 Pro.

@@aweigh1010 I'm sitting on an unopened Vader 4, never owned a Vader 3 but excited to review its successor. Thank you for sharing your experience.

@@GameTechTalk I am biased because I love flydigi but I feel like they make the objectively best 3rd party controller offerings on the market. Note that by "3rd party" I do not include custom controller companies as they modify 1st party hardware.

@@aweigh1010 Oh absolutely. I'm with you on Flydigi, they are "built different" in all the right way, and I don't know if you saw the "reddit drama" on the Vader 4? Their response made them that much more honorable to me. With that said, I do want to believe that the market is a better one for consumers if we give everyone an opportunity to be highlighted for their pros, while still addressing their cons. Manba is not perfect, but they do have, in my humble opinion, some good to them. With that said, there is better and for not that much more so hopefully they'll work even harder the next time around but I think they have great potential.
