I bought this for my 7-year old daughter who is just beginning to play games that require both analogue sticks. She was finding it difficult to use the PS4 dual shock as the grips were too large for her to use the sticks and triggers at the same time, making some control schemes frustrating.The Mini Gamepad really works well - it's size makes it much easier to move thumbs from the sticks to the face buttons and also to use the shoulder buttons. My daughter finds it much easier to play.It is an official controller and so it has support for the touchpad controls, though this is through a button and use of a stick - the controller is too spall to feature an actual pad.We haven't used this controller with any game that demands a lot of touchpad input, so I can't really comment on this, though I would guess that fast access to lots of swiping, etc isn't anywhere near as easy as on the regular dual shock.The controller is wired, though it's a very long cable - more than long enough for most, and longer than the old PS wired controllers! It doesn't allow for switching on of the console, so you'll need to press the power button and then activate the controller (shows just how lazy we've got, if we're grumbling about this).As other reviewers have mentioned, the triggers on this are just buttons, but this is a kid's controller, and anyone old enough to be playing at a proper level on a shooter should using a regular controller!If there's a downside, it's that it does feel a little lightweight and I do worry about how many drops it'll handle (it's survived about a half-dozen that I know of so far!). However at this price it's ideal. Highly recommended.

I use this on PC for playing with SNES, NES, MD and SMS emulators and it works a treat. Better than those cheapo replica usb pads and provides a more authentic feel in comparison to using a modern controller.Build quality is excellent and the pad feels great if you are using it like a SNES controller. The d-pad is concave and can take a bit of getting used to and there are no triggers. The wire is really long and there a plenty of extra buttons to remap to various functions such as load/save state etc.It's pretty decent for fighting games and any kind of modern platformers. Using it for other modern games that use twin sticks can prove difficult due to the general size of the controller and the lack of space between the sticks.For me this is not a problem as i only use the d-pad and face/shoulder buttons.Connecting to an emulator is no problem as most of them use DInput and recognise the pad in an instant. Ironically the SNES emulator did not work and in this case Xpadder had to be used.Highly recommended for kids or people with small hands or if you are just using the dpad or one stick to move.

I purchased this for my 5 Year old daughter who is just starting to play kids games on my PS4. The Quality is very good for a basic controller for a child but would not recommend for an adult. Main reason is the sticks have a very different tension on compared to an official PS4 Controller and the top of the Stick is not rubberised like the official Controller. Please also note that this does not have Vibration Feedback, Motion Sense or have a touchpad. The Touchpad work around is a button that is initially very tricky to work out. The buttons on top (R1, R2 etc) feel very different i.e. easier to push in and have no sensitivity, so it's either button full on or not.Just be careful if you are purchasing this as a cheap second controller to play with friends. My main reason was the Brand make good Controllers and was a smaller size for my Daughter. Overall yes it has a lot of features missing compared to the Official Sony one but it is well made and cheaper in comparison. Loses a star due to the fiddly Touchpad Button.

This is the perfect mini PlayStation controller for little hands and my daughter loves it. She always struggled with the larger controller, but commented straight away how much easier this was to hold and use. I have to say even as an adult, I would have no issues using this as a second controller, it feels really comfortable and responsive.The controller feels high quality and the buttons feel similar to that of a standard ps controller, the cable is nice and long (3m / 10ft) to allow anyone to sit back away from the tv.The controller is currently available in 3-colours, black, red or blue. We went for the black, so it matched in with our existing ones.Overall, very impressed and a good buy,good value and would recommend.If you found this review useful, please click the helpful button, thank you.

As a gamer and father we play on our PS4 with my son.After realising that the regular controller is to big for him I bought this child version.Delivery: FastPackage: Neat and safeDurability: really sturdy, fell done a few times no issues or minor scratches worst case.Weight: really really lightweight, that is why it feels down a few times as well.Use: feels awkward when I play with it compared to the usual controller, but for a childe it is totally good. Just the right size.Battery: Only cabel version. The cable is so so so long I almost fell over once in it :D, so bevare.Overall for a child, it is a good buy.See the picture included for comparison and look.

I have a thrustmaster racing setup thats only officially supported on ps3 but works within games on ps5. Bought this to go with a drivehub and it works well. Doesn't function correctly in DIrt rally on PS5 (no clutch showing) but does for all 3 project cars games so assume its an issue with the game. I would definitely recommend but just be aware if you intend on using in the same way I have, you need to turn on the console using the button on the front of the console itself. If you turn on using the PS button on a bluetooth controller, it will kick this off after 10-15 minutes as the bluetooth overrides the wired

I purchased my one from eBay at the time because it was cheaper that listed.The controller takes a bit of getting used to if you're used to the Dualshock 4 but feels great after that, I feel the triggers need a bit more space in-between them but that's just me, I have the blue one and it looks great and it's way cheaper than the dualshock 4, if you want a great feeling low price controller for PS4 then look no further as this is it.My controller was tested on Destiny 2 for 1 hour 30 minutes and worked perfectly, couldn't test it on PC or a PS4 Pro though as I do not have them.

This controller is great for young children. With so many games aimed at younger children, like the two paw patrol games as an example, I was finding that my son struggled with the larger, standard controller. The build quality is good, albeit the thumb sticks are a bit firm making them a bit uncomfortable for longer play sessions. The only negative is that they haven’t made a wireless version yet so be prepared to go back to tripping over cables and pulling it out of the USB port.

Initially I bought this for use on my Playstation Mini. I wanted at least one pad with analogue control so I tried one of these. It says it's designed with kids in mind, but holding it is not uncomfortable for me, and I have quite big hands. This worked perfectly with my Playstation Mini on Retroarch and Autobleem. On PC it works flawlessly with any emulators, or Windows or Steam games. I also found out it works on an android phone using an OTG USB connector. Brilliant product.

What a great little controller not only for kids, but also as a standby second controller for anyone else who wants to use it. Perfect for my 5 year old to reach all the buttons, but chunky enough that my 35 year old hands can use it quite comfortably as well. Feels very well made, and the cable is a good length. Lacks the touchpad and speaker functionality of the full-fat PS4 controller, but I never use these anyway. Delighted with this.

Exactly what I wanted... While we're all currently locked down at home my 3 year old son has been bored senseless, he likes watching me on games so I decided to buy him a lego game. He loved it but the DS4 was way too big for him, but this mini controller is perfect! He now plays with ease, there are a few things missing compared with the DS4 but as it's for kids they're not needed anyway.

I like the idea of this product, i had to return it as it was actually too small for my hands, which made me laugh when i tried to use the sticks and my thumbs would collide a lot.I did notice that during fighting games aka street fighter doing certain commands on the D-pad was a little harder but overall the build quality of the device feels nice and the length of the cable was handy.

I preordered a blue one and received a red one of these thinking it was going to be a handy spare controller, it’s actually become my main controller. It’s main down side it’s the L2 and R2 have no squeeze they are either on or off so this controller is no good for anything where you need precision control like get sport. But for arcade style button mashing games it’s great.

Used by a 6 year old. Just say fits his hands with some reaching, but so much better than the standard controller in terms of size. It works well and no problems.Down sides are no rumble/vibrate and the L2/R2 buttons are simple on/off rather than a range of movement or action. This means games such as car games are tricky and you're unable to gently control movement.

Bought as a gift for brother along with multiplayer games - we already have two controllers but are a big busy family and this was an affordable controller to have for visitors.Feels very cheap and plastic, is also very small and a bit odd the first time you use. Despite all of that it works as well as the other controllers and means everyone can take part.
