Review: Quality leverless at a good price. - I play this on PC,
this is plug and play with no issues as most things are on PC.
It's very nice, feels decently weighty since it has two metal
plates to add weight, so it's stable on my lap, it's essentially
just a F500 with a leverless configuration. Edges are nice and
smooth, and the acrylic is flush with the case, so nothing digs
into my palms when resting my hands on it. The stock buttons
don't feel great, kinda like sandy Sanwas, less smooth, more
coarse feeling on the edges. They work fine but if you are used
to more premium feeling buttons you are gonna want to switch
these out. I moved over my Qanba Gravity KS buttons from my old
leverless, feels much nicer now. Replacing buttons is easy, 6
screws on the bottom, remove the bottom panel, unhook the quick
connect cables on each button, pop em out, stick the news ones
in. Wish it had a detachable usb cable, but for 90 bucks, I can't
complain. Input lag according to Mayflash is 1ms, so about as
good as it gets if you are a stickler for that. If you are in the
market for a new leverless controller, on a budget, and want
something that can fit standard arcade buttons so you can easily
upgrade parts later on, then I think you can't go wrong with
this. If you are on Xbox though do know it requires you to
connect your controller to the Flat for it to work.
Review: Great all button/leverless, solid build, easy to use! -
After owning for about a couple weeks now, this leverless has
become one of my favorites under $100 USD. I like that they chose
to use arcade style buttons. As a long-time arcade stick user,
the buttons provide a nice transition compared to the flatbox
devices that use keyboard switches and caps. The size and weight
feels great for either using on my lap or on a table and always
feels sturdy and stable. I was able to use a magicboots ps4
adapter to use this on my ps5, and I also connected a wired Xbox
Series X controller to use it on the series x console. It also
works on other devices like PC and the Switch. So I've been
having fun trying it on my various consoles. The buttons are
surprisingly good for generic offbrand stuff. I've used tons of
button brands and styles and these feel like less sensitive
sanwas with a bit of extra travel. I adjusted to these from my
other leverless after maybe 10 minutes of playing. I will likely
keep using them until I want to swap colors or another brand for
fun, or just do a full swap if a button gets faulty. I rather
have these cheaper buttons to save money over buying an "elite"
version so I can have my own choice of quality buttons on my
terms when ready. I'm also looking forward to trying my hand at
customizing the artwork. I'm happy I gave this product a chance!
I really can't think of much I would change about it that
wouldn't push the price higher than I want it to be.
