needs to be a bit tougher
This little guy needs to be considerable more robust if it is to undergo the tough job it is designed to undertake as a games console. It looks good but is a tad flimsy

works fine for me
You receive a gaming controller that seems to be well made, I have had no issues like some of the other reviews, nothing has fallen off, even with a 14 year old giving a good bash test. Worked on our gaming laptop with windows, the buttons were very responsive, took a bit to get used to the layout as the controller is very much like a PS4 controller, but the buttons are not configured the same way. I like this, its a great addition to our laptop.

get what you pay for
This is a cheap option for a controller and feels exactly that. It worked and was functional though I wouldn't really trust it on a game that required precise and quick inputs. The build quality feels cheap and clunky and it certainly isn't of the same quality as many of the other controllers I have used over decades of gaming.

Hmmm....
"You get what you pay for" is a phrase we're all familar with. Unfortunately this Event Dual shock controller sums up that phrase perfectly. It is rubbish. It is unresponsive. Some of the buttons don't work at all. This may be cheap, very cheap, but that is no excuse, it should still work. It doesn't. Very poor indeed.

Not really fit for purpose.
This looks like a lovely gaming controller for PC, but sadly it does not live up to its initial promise. My grandkids road-tested it and were very disappointed. It is not very responsive, feels cheaply put together and likely to break with wear as a few of the buttons started feeling wobbly quite early on. Yes it's not expensive, but the controllers they already had were not expensive either and work much better. So not really worth your money. They have given it to their toddler brother to play with (unplugged) so he can pretend he is playing with them when they are gaming, so not a total waste - but could be so much better..

Didn't work
After opening the heat sealed packaging I plugged this into my PC Maybe I'm missing something but I can't get the joypad to do anything at all. Windows makes the usual USB device added noise but that's it. Shows up nowhere in device manager, no software to load.

Cheap and cheerful
This may be fine as an extra controller for a very young player, but the ewent USB Double Shock Joypad leaves a lot to be desired in the hands of anyone who has had prior gaming experience. This wired USB controller is designed to be used on PC and is instantly recognised on Windows 10 when plugged in (you do need to have the standard gamepad drivers installed or, as an alternative, install the ones from the company). Certainly appealing to the budget conscious out there, the PS4-like gamepad may seem like a good idea but it immediately feels too loose and badly put together when holding it. The budget becomes more obvious when you begin playing. Controls aren't responsive in any fast action game and some were not picked up at all.

La forma è spudoratamente copiata dal joypad della Palystation, solo che al posto del riquadro touch c'è lo splendido logo kitch della Ewent. Vale quello che costa, è adattabile a diversi videogiochi con software tipo x360ce che lo rendono rilevabile come un controller xbox360. E' provvisto di un minicd coi driver e con le utilissime istruzioni che spiegano il funzionamento ovvero: - Collegalo - Installa i driver - Gioca La risposta ai comandi è buona, l'economicità si vede soprattutto sui tasti dorsali con quel minimo di lasco in più che comunqe non pregiudica in nessun modo il funzionamento. La luce rossa della spia Analog è visibile, ma non certo brillante, e in condizioni di alta luminosità richiede impegno per capire se è accesa o no, ma nessuno gioca in condizioni di luce diurna all'esterno, quindi sostanzialemnte neanche questo è un problema. Economico ma efficace.

Trés bon rapport qualité prix, installation sous Windows 10 en quelques secondes. Le plastique semble plus fragile que sur une manette normal cependant la qualité totale du produit est très correcte

You will need a program like x360ce to use this controller. Otherwise it is a serious pain to set up for any game. So far I am unable to activate the 'dual shock' feature. In my opinion it does not even have this feature. The buttons need to be remapped for each program and for some software certain buttons remain unrecognised. Same size as the ps2 controllers.

Todavia no esta usado,pero tiene buena pinta

De buen tamaño para los que tenemos las manos grandes. Con el Pro Evolution Soccer hay que configurarlo especialmente (en la carpeta del juego ejecutar el programa settings). Una pega es que no es compatible con los mandos de Microsoft por lo que en algún juego da problemas (no es que sea culpa del mando) Por lo demás muy satisfecho.
