the delay is noticeable from 1 to 10 in? Would you recommend it for COD Mobile online with other players? Or would you go for an ubsb-c, like the Razer?
The delay wasn't noticeable to me, it was fine with COD, but ofcourse USB based controllers will have no delay whatsoever. Personally, the delay with Bluetooth controllers (the ones I've reviewed) has never been enough for me to notice or for it to impact my gameplay.
@@Techtonicuk I have really only noticed it when switching to older Bluetooth controllers. Usually more modern ones are so slight it's really hard to tell. Thank you for the video.
Using the controller doesn't add any extra drain to the phones battery as I've always got Bluetooth on anyway. Gaming itself does drain the battery a little quicker as you would expect it to.
Both are pretty good controllers, this one beats the X2 because of it's analogue trigger buttons but if you don't play racing games then you won't care about that, if that's the case, then the X2 is better in my opinion.
I really want this controller! Any updates on when they will become available? I tried messaging them but I got no answer. Also, I have the wee 2t controller. Do you feel this one is better than that one? Any chance you could do a comparison between this one, the wee 2t and the gamesir x2 controller?
I think they're shipping out to those who backed the kickstarter project at the moment, I'm not sure when it will be widely available but I'll ask them and get back to you. As for the comparison, I plan to do a comparison of a few controllers including the ones you mentioned so please stay tuned.
This was their reply: "We are planning to sell on Amazon EU and US but it is a little delayed due to reconfirmation on functional quality and preparation of data before overseas expansion. When we are ready and start selling, we will definitely share it to you."
@@Techtonicuk Hi, I was able to hold of one but I'm struggling using it and wanted to ask you a question. I'm able to pair the control fine when it's in the closed (regular controller) position. However every time I stretch it out to fit my phone, it seems the controller turns off and disconnects. It's driving me crazy. Is it defective? The Flydigi wee 2t didn't have this issue. It's charged and in android mode. Not sure what's going on.
Vibration motors works in xbox app with streaming and in app Steam Link?. Fold 2 fits perfect in two positions? (with frontal camera down right and in up left). Thanks!.
Amazing controller it's the best hands down as far as all the different things you can do with this controller I have stopped playing games with my razer kishi controller this controller tops all in my opinion
@@Techtonicuk it made me out down my razer kishi controller and my bluetooth gamesir x2 controller hands down the best despite the low build quality it's amazing
Will the app work on the z fold 3? Or is the controller mapping still not compatible? I'm thinking about getting this for my fold 3 but if the app doesn't support fold then the product is trash.
Sorry for the late response, but I wanted to test it properly before commenting. Having tested mapping mode with the Fold 3, with both COD and Genshin Impact, I can confirm it does indeed work.
I wonder if mapping mode could control 2-4 toram online, running simultaneously in popup windows or dex windows. Like both right triggers be two buttons in toram 1, both left cover two buttons over toram 2, ab cover two in toram 3.. and just alternate between right triggers left triggers ab and actuality hit the buttons in each popup/windowed toram On android.
Do you know if it is possible to use the the Z fold with Spigen Slim Armor Pro and a gaming controller, like the SHAKS S5b ? I really want to buy this case but I don't want to remove it everytime I want to play with a gaming controller... Or if the SHAKS S5b doesn't fit with the case on, what other controller would fit ? Thank you !
That case looks pretty thick so I doubt it would work with any controller I've reviewed but it's hard to for me to be sure as I don't have the case, sorry I wasn't much help.
Dead zone is similar to the Flydigi Wee 2T. Button mapping isn't currently working on Z Fold 2 but Shaks is looking into the problem and will hopefully fix soon. The controller is really good, alongside the Glap, it is my favourite controller now.
It looks like you can't use this with a case on your phone right? I have a fold 3 with a case on it. The case has adhesives so I'm not going to be removing the case.
Sorry for the late response. It depends on the case you're using, it works fine with the official Flip Cover case and the alternative S Pen case I did a video on recently.
This is what Shaks said to me regarding this name change: "we have changed the way to work with iOS due to a couple of reasons. First, due to the semi-conductor shortage, we were not able to get MFi chipset in the last few months, and we think this situation will keep going for the time being. Consequently, the chip-set price increased unbelievably. To overcome this situation, we develop "SW-based compatibility" with an iOS devices. Just boot S5b in iOS mode, its ID automatically adjusts to iOS device. So, please keep the firmware to the latest one by downloading from our Android SHAKS GameHub App or Windows App. Soon, we will release Mac application, also. Due to above change, we revised its name from S5i to S5b"
I haven't got a PS5 to test it with, but using an app called "PSPlay" I was able to remotely play the PS4, and that app also states it works with the PS5 too.
My Sony Xperia 1 is 167mm in length, your Nubia Magic 5G is 168.6mm, since it just about fit the Xperia , I don't think it will work with your phone. You should check out my review of the Glap Play, as that will work with your phone.
I will never Telescopic controller with no audio passthrough...it covers the 3.5 mm port of the phone so at least they should put a port un the controller...
Bluetooth isn't bad, but through USB there's less input lag although I don't think on Bluetooth it has been that noticeable to me. Unless you're a competitive online gamer, I don't think it'll make a huge difference to you.

Nice review! I bought this today. I can't take anymore!! Come faster postman!
Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy the controller.
Brilliant vid mate. Really comprehensive and gave me all the info I needed to make a decision on where to spend my cash.

Seems pretty nice. How much 'thickness' is there? Can this work with cases?
Including the case, your phone can only be max 10mm thickness.
This controller doesn't seem to be available anymore? At least not in the US as far as I could find.
Solid review, I'll be getting one next week
They sending you one over too?
@@Techtonicuk yes
Nice video bro 👌
That controller looks neat....
Thanks bro, by the way, I should be posting your Falcon F4 tomorrow 🙂
That Z Fold 2 tho....😍👀
Yep love it 😎
@@Techtonicuk how’s the battery life on the fold 2 when gaming and using a controller?
Using the controller doesn't add any extra drain to the phones battery as I've always got Bluetooth on anyway. Gaming itself does drain the battery a little quicker as you would expect it to.
@@Techtonicuk awesome, thanks
Gotta say, my Note 10+ be looking pretty sus rn...
Great review, which would you pick between this and the Gamesir X2 Bluetooth?
Both are pretty good controllers, this one beats the X2 because of it's analogue trigger buttons but if you don't play racing games then you won't care about that, if that's the case, then the X2 is better in my opinion.
@@Techtonicuk appreciate it, I'll order the X2 today for sure.

That sounds defective, get in touch with them, it shouldn't disconnect or power off when extend it.
Which one you perfer? Gamesir X2 bluetooth or this Shaks?
The X2 but it stopped working for me, doesn't power on even after charging overnight.
@@Techtonicuk why do you prefer the x2? Can you give a comparison in regards to its ergonomics, buttons and quality?
I just prefer the overall size of the X2, it's more comfortable to hold.
how’s the battery life on the fold 2 when gaming and using a controller?
Battery life isn't affected by the controller much as I always have Bluetooth on anyway.
Vibration motors works in xbox app with streaming and in app Steam Link?. Fold 2 fits perfect in two positions? (with frontal camera down right and in up left). Thanks!.
I didn't notice it on Xbox app but I did notice it worked on Steam. Fold 2 fits perfectly in both positions.

Great review man!
Pitty I can't fit my galaxy s21 ultra in this controller
Thanks. My Xperia 1 is 167mm in length and that fit, the S21 Ultra is 165.1mm in length so it will definitely fit.
Does it fit if you have case for you Galaxy fold?
Depends on the case you're using, won't work with thick cases.
Will the rumble work on xbox game pass?
Nope, I tried it and rumble didn't work with Game Pass.

That's pretty old now though right?
Yea it is, but haven’t seen a good detailed review still.
I'll contact them and see if they're willing to send me one. Most of the times these companies don't even reply.
Say do you or anyone know the difference between the S5i and the S5b? I found a link that says S5b but I'm not sure how it compares to the S5i.
This is what Shaks said to me regarding this name change: "we have changed the way to work with iOS due to a couple of reasons.

If its Bluetooth it doesn’t worth, the only way to go is through charging port connection.

my problem with this controller is the analog sticks
If you want really good analogue sticks, check out the Glap controller I've reviewed.
No more products.
