Perfect controller!
This is such a great controller! My 5 year old can play so much better and more comfortably! Great for anyone with smaller hands though. Only wish was that there was a wireless version.

Perfection Was Just Out of Reach
TL;DR: A near-perfect controller with quirks that require getting used to. Anyone who loves small controllers, or has small hands: this is the end game controller you are looking for!Pros: -Best texture and design analogue sticks I’ve ever used, hands down. If I could replace my PS2 analogue stick tops with these, I would in a heartbeat. (looks like an experiment to do sometime)-Small form factor perfect for people with small hands, or people who prefer smaller controllers over the bulky monstrosities of today’s modern gaming controllers. (sans Switch Pro Controller, but that has issues of its own)Neutral: -paddle buttons are in the way of a better grip; but perfect for people who love paddle buttons placed exactly where the middle finger pads would be-face buttons are snappy and tactile, but feels like membrane isn’t of a particularly high quality.-d-pad is nothing home to write about. It’s functional, but just. Not ideal for shmups, but you could do MUCH MUCH worse.Cons: -stupid button placement of the start button.-it’s wired only. (I do not mind this at all, but this is def a con for many)-my controller’s rumble doesn’t seem to work, as I don’t feel any rumble when playing Monster Hunter World. Or, if it does, it’s so weak I don’t realize it.-it’s too expensive @$40. Even $30 is a bit much, in my opinion. Catch it on a sale under $30 and you won’t regret it. Would be nice if they sold an even cheaper version that just removed the paddle buttons in back. (I just wanted a mini 360 replacement; i don’t want extra buttons)It’s about time a mini xbone controller finally came out that’s actually of a decent build quality! Hyperkin’s fare are nice, but they are cheap garbage with an expensive price tag; no quality build to them whatsoever. I’m a massive lover of the PowerA Mini Xbox 360 controller; easily one of my favorite controllers to use, right behind the Playstation 2 controller.When PowerA released this Nano controller, I was really happy they brought back the tiny size! But! There are a few issues with it that keeps me from giving this a 100% rating.The first major issue is the…Start button? (I have no idea, and don’t care, what it’s called) PowerA reduced the size profile of the controller. Perfect! But they basically kept the same button placement… major fail. To hit the start button with the right thumb, you are literally bumping into the right analog stick. Button placement is in an incredibly stupid place. It’s almost like no one actually held the prototype; or worse, they held the prototype and decided that it wasn’t worth moving the buttons up and out ever so slightly to make it more ergonomically friendly. It takes a while to get used to trying to not bump into the right stick, though, so it’s not in an especially egregious place.The second major issue is the extra buttons on the back of the controller. I hate them. It’s great that I don’t have them programmed to do anything because I hold my controllers tightly in my hands and, especially in Monster Hunter, I’m constantly pushing the buttons. I thought I’d like them as a feature, but the longer I held and played with this controller, the more I hated them because it’s actually in the perfect placement of my strongest fingers that I use to hold most controllers. So, for others who do like buttons on the back of the controller, I seriously think the button placement is perfect for hitting with the middle finger.PowerA were looking at perfection, but fell far from it, with poor button placement and extra buttons that make this controller WAY more expensive than it has every right of being. Even when I bought it at $30, I still found that too expensive because all I wanted was a replacement for the mini 360 controllers whose rubber domes under the buttons are starting to stick. I will continue to use the Nano, but I’ll just mention that I will still be stockpiling PowerA mini 360 controllers whenever I can because I still find those to be more comfortable than this, sans the clearly superior designed and textured analogue sticks.This may sound like a lot of nitpicking, but I have high standards for controllers because the vast majority of modern controllers physically hurt my index fingers and wrists when held for a prolonged period of time (namely, the PS4 and Xbone controllers are especially egregious at hurting my hands). So finding smaller controllers that are reasonably priced, built well enough, and comfortable are incredibly hard. I still give this a recommend, but with a big asterisk that the buttons on the back may make or break your enjoyment with this controller.

Good controller
This is great for my 5 year old! It fits perfectly in his small hands. The color is cute, and the buttons work well. I just wish it had a much longer cord. He has to sit pretty close to the Xbox to be able to use it. No issues so far. Seems well built.

Perfect fit for children
Small if youbare an adult but perfect for children.

Mando compacto. Al principio cuesta acostumbrarse.

J’apprécie particulièrement le câble (3 mètres!) qui est amovible. La manette est petite comparée à d’autres mais ça n’empêche pas une bonne prise en main. Je l’ai achetée un peu par hasard parce qu’il me fallait une manette et qu’elle était moins chère avec “Amazon seconde main” mais elle est parfaite et j’adore la couleur.

主に嫁が使っているが女性のような手の小さい方にもお勧めできる。そして、コスパが良い。非常に軽いので長時間やるFPSにも向いてます。
