High Quality for a Low Price
Color: Black
Wow. Not sure yet if it supports the game I bought it to use with but idc at this point. The weight, the feeling in ur hands, the app (kind of annoying, but incredibly helpful and full of help and info).. I am genuinely impressed and that’s hard to do seeing as most controllers just suck ass or won’t work with PG3D. Fr tho, when you hold it, it’s not like a $40-50 controller.. feels more like I paid $100-200, no joke. So smooth and easy to use. Hell I’m not even a gamer, it’s just the one game and I’m still stoked to give this thing a run for its money. First impressions tho??? VERY pleased and would def buy again ... show more

The stars seem wrong compared to how I feel
Color: Black
I LOVE this controller. The build is one of the best parts. The sticks feel smooth and don’t feel like you have minimal movement like with the back bone. Ergonomically it fits my hands without cramping, and when it’s working it is the absolute best. One thing that I love about this controller, but is one of its biggest downfalls and not only for me but a lot of other people from reviews. The Bluetooth. Like I said when this works I wouldn’t want to use any other controller. But when it slips up. It is a massive fail. Not just ms but full seconds. Unusable seconds. And right in the middle of the game you’re supposed to shut it off, and restart your phone for it to start working again. For the price, and the fact it only works with iPhone, this should not be an issue as much as it is. The buttons are another issue. They are not bad but the size, and location is very inconvenient. Luckily they have the rear buttons, which are REALLY nice and in a good spot. Also being able to use the app to switch the buttons layout for different games is very convenient. This is just nitpicking, but I really wish the back triggers were mouse style short travel click. I only play shooters so any distance in controller triggers annoys me. These aren’t actually bad though. Just something I’m not a fan of. I also wish the put 2 more remapping buttons on the top like the binbok ultra. One big thing I really love about it being Bluetooth is you can push the phone up high enough to put a cooler on it. I honestly think all of these phone controllers should have a built in one. All the ones that do seem cheap, but as much as these cost you’d think they’d consider how hot the phone gets and how hard it is on the battery. Hopefully soon this isn’t an issue. The sticks being so smooth and actually full sized and being PlayStation style except being on top, is just a win. With the added bonus of not being worried about stick drift as much because of the Hall effect. All in all, I really like this controller. It’s made it where using any other controller, just feels like a knock of of what this is, but they really should have put a little more love into this. Being Bluetooth goes both ways. Not being able to plug in your phone, and headphones suck. But being able to position your phone (very awkwardly) too put a cooler/charger because the bar is lower than most is nice. I would’ve preferred a usbc but I’m also not mad if they fix the Bluetooth mess up they’ve made. If that is fixed in the future I would probably give this a 4.5 stars. ... show more

It sucks ( heres why )
Color: White
The controller is really good in terms of feel and quality, it’s comfortable and looks nice but the joysticks suck, it’s very inaccurate and the bluetooth acts crazy sometimes, it’s extremely delayed. I done a ton of testing with the dead zones and in game settings. It’s just not good for accuracy, which is fairly important to me because I’m playing call of duty and competitive rank play games. ... show more

Best-First Mobile Gaming Controller
Color: Black
The Scuf NOMAD is my first mobile gaming controller. I usually play video games on my Xbox Series S, but I wanted something that I could use to play video games with while I was traveling or when I needed to waste some time. I spent much time researching every mobile gaming controller on the market, such as the Backbone, and GameSir controller before finally settling with the Scuf NOMAD. I wanted Bluetooth and not a wired connection because I knew that having a wired connection meant a faster drain on my phone's battery. Although this is a deal breaker for some people, there isn't a noticeable delay. However, I will admit that there have been some instances (not often) where the controller randomly starts to have input lag. This usually happens during long playing sessions. I'm sure this is something that can be improved upon and fixed in the future with software updates. With the Scuf NOMAD being wireless, it uses its internal battery. When looking at reviews online, I didn't see any that mentioned how long it would take to charge the battery. However, from my experience, it only takes about an hour or so until it reaches full battery which is very impressive knowing that it can give up to 16 hours of battery life. When it comes to the actual physical build and feel of the Scuf NOMAD, it feels very premium and durable. The buttons, d-pad, triggers, bumpers, and joysticks are very responsible and I have had no durability issues with them. The iPhone 14/15 adapter is also very helpful and does not make my iPhone feel loose when playing games. (Note: the games I tend to play with my Scuf NOMAD are PSP emulator games, Minecraft, and Xbox Cloud Gaming/Xbox Remote Play.) The Scuf NOMAD companion app is also close to perfection. It can be utilized as a game hub launcher where you can save your favorite games, while also being able to discover new games to play. They also recently added a feature where you can directly add your IOS games to the launcher if they aren't already listed in the companion app. In conclusion, you cannot go wrong with this mobile controller. It is sleek and durable, and the companion app (WHICH IS FREE!!!) makes the experience 100x better. ... show more

Great materials, not so great ergonomics
Color: Black
Quality: 5/5 The quality of the materials is very high, and the controller feels very nice to the touch, has a decent weight to it, all of the buttons feel nice to press, and the joysticks are very smooth and responsive. Zero perceived latency with the Bluetooth connection, and the app is pretty nice Ergonomics: 3/5 For me, the controller is simply too small to be comfortable, and the face buttons are in a very uncomfortable position for me. My hand hurt after playing for about 30 minutes. I have pretty large hands, and I think that this controller would benefit greatly from a but more space to grip at the bottom, but I do understand that would take away from the portability of the device. The symmetrical joysticks being at the higher position would make sense and be very, very comfortable for FPS games, but I don't play many, if any, of those. I mostly play action RPG's so the face buttons being more easily reachable is a higher priority for me. Overall, I think that the controller is very nice, but it's just not for me. If I played exclusively FPS games, it would probably be a 5/5 for me. ... show more

The BEST controller for iPhone gaming
Color: Black
I am a person who does most of their gaming on a handled device. Usually I am switching between the Steam Deck and the Nintendo Switch depending on what new releases have come out for the respective platform. When it comes to mobile gaming, that is actually where I play most of my first person shooters. It's really easy to pick up my phone, play a quick call of duty match and then go about my day. Previously I did this on the backbone, but after being a bit disgruntled with it I did some research and found my way to the NOMAD which is what I will now be using for all of my mobile gaming! What I love most about the NOMAD is it feels like a legit controller. As a now previous backbone owner, my main problem with it was that it felt like you were attaching tiny joycons to your phone. The NOMAD has far better ergonomics with the controller grip, bigger and better thumbsticks, and even customizable rear paddles. Sure, the NOMAD is a tiny bit heavier than the backbone but that is a tradeoff I am more than willing to make because of how much better it feels. While you also do need to charge the NOMAD separately from your phone, this has not been an issue at all for me because my phone battery drains faster than the NOMAD battery. The USB C charging allows me to hare chargers way easier too, which is great. I also want to talk about just how much customization the NOMAD allows for. The app lets you customize things like thumbstick sensitivity, dead zones, and trigger behavior. If you play any first person shooters you should be setting up controller profiles for each one. It's really easy, and gives you a serious advantage over people who are using other mobile controllers. Anyone still using just their touchscreen will automatically have 0 chance of competing with you as well. I play a lot of call of duty and getting 20+ kill streaks is an absolute breeze. Everyone who is on my team always wants to group up with me when the game is over too. I've even picked up some new non-FPS games I had played on the switch that suffered because of the joycons. The feel of the NOMAD made those experiences so much better. Overall, if you are looking for a new mobile controller and you have an iPhone, you absolutely cannot go wrong with the NOMAD. ... show more

When I bought this before I received it, I was a bit skeptical about it but decided to take the risk and purchase it. I have an iPhone 12 Pro and it’s definitely compatible. This controller literally covers all the bases AND you can comfortably play fighting games without any distractions. Totally worth buying and no issues with functionality, customizations, or connectivity yet. ... show more
