[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Nimbus+ to use with my Apple IPhone XS. This wireless controller can be used with Apple products which include; iPhones, iPads, iPods and Apple TV. Upon unboxing, I noticed the quality of the controller itself. It’s just like a controller that you would use for gaming consoles. It’s heavy duty with buttons and triggers and has an ergonomic design. This box also included the iPhone mount which I didn’t think was as good of quality as the controller. It’s not as heavy duty and doesn’t feel like it supports the weight of my iPhone. I found the weight of my phone caused the mount to keep coming out of the controller. The setup was fairly easy and the box included instructions to do so. The controller connects to your phone via Bluetooth and the Nimbus app (found in the App Store). Once your connected, you are able to scroll through the different games within the app and from there it links you to download from the App Store. There are games that are free and ones you can pay for. In regards to the controller response; the triggers, buttons and joystick were all very responsive to the games I played. Overall, I think this controller is really neat and fun to use. I would just be careful with the phone mount itself and make sure the prongs are inserted into the controller to support the weight of your phone. I think this would make the perfect gift for someone who enjoys gaming on different Apple platforms

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this a few weeks back because I am an avid gamer on the Xbox and wanted something that would be mobile to play on the run. To my surprise this controller felt almost identical to my xbox controller. I was worried about lag but seems to be a non-issue, the buttons respond well and the d-pad is suberb. Now the battery life is where this controller really shines

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally got this product in after ordering it awhile ago. It has been worth the wait. I don't have any of the new consoles as I just don't play enough video games to justify spending the money, however I play a lot of games on my iphone and this helps out tremendously. The feel of the controller helps me feel like I was back in college and playing halo on a daily/nightly occurrence. It helps game play feel more seamless like when playing on a computer/tv/xbox/playstation etc. Highly recommend if you want a more integrated and fun iphone game play experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first opened the box, I felt like I was unpacking the golden egg. The packing materials were well-designed for the device and the box serves well as a storage case when the controller is not in use. I was surprised not to see a cable until I realized that it uses a standard lightning cable of which I have boxes! My only gripe about the cable situation is that it doesn’t fit as snugly into the charging port as I would like. Anyway, I was excited to see that there was already a charge on the controller right out of the box because I was ready to start playing! The battery indicator on the top of the controller keeps me informed of so I don’t run out of juice at an inopportune moment during gameplay. Bluetooth connectivity is very straightforward. The A/B/X/Y buttons have a nice click to them so you can actually feel when you’ve made a selection. The D-pad is also quite clicky. The phone mount fits my iPhone 12 nicely without causing any damage to the case and folds away conveniently for storage into my backpack to save space. When playing with my iPad, I just use my iPad’s desk stand. The Nimbus+ hand grip is ergonomic and the weight is balanced, allowing for long game play. Play is responsive and I have had zero connectivity issues, even after hours of use. The buttons have a familiar layout and I especially like the four-way directional pad versus the round option (it is easier to navigate blindly). In a perfect world, the controller would have a rumble feature. Also, the website boasts fifty. hours of gameplay on a single charge, but I’ve been getting closer to forty which is plenty for me, especially when it means not having to use “AA” batteries. Overall, this controller is durable, has a good weight, has a nice click-feel, connects easily, and has stable connectivity.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the steelseries nimbus+. You can take it with you any wheres you go. It can be played on Mac, your iPhone, your iPad, or your Apple TV, The controller is very well made ,the joy sticks move with ease and precision. The lay out of the buttons are nice they are sturdy when pushing them, it fits your hands very well. It has LED lights to show when charging and other features The phone mount is sturdy and hold's the phone very well.the front of the controller has two holes on either side for the phone mount, a wireless pairing button when switching devices, a button to show and a charging port. The front buttons are very smooth and feel nice when pressing them. It has an impressive 50 hour battery life so you know if you take it on a trip you wont have to worry about battery time. There is so many games you can play and it's great you can use more then one device.I would definitely recommend this it is built so well and has so many features its just a lot of fun. well worth the price. It's like a gaming system in a controller.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found the Nimbus+ easy to use and made gaming on my phone more fun. It connected easy and feels pretty good holding. It’s securely held my iPhone while I was gaming. I also like that it has a rechargeable battery and from what I noticed the battery life is pretty good.
