So a while back I've reviewed the Logitech F310 for the PC.  The Logitech f310 controller broke after a few months of use,   as the wire had a short in it.
I'm cheap so I wasn't going to get it repaired or buy another one as it didn't last for me.  So I needed to look for another gamepad to replace the F310.    I was always intrigued by the Official Microsoft Xbox 360 Controller but the controller is in still some pretty big demand as sites like Amazon will list the Official controller for around 30 to 35 bucks for just one controller.

Thanks to the price point of the Microsoft-brand controller. I went looking for another, and I came across this obscure Chinese knock off controller.
The controller's design point was inspired by the Wired Xbox 360 controller for PC and Obviously the Xbox 360 console almost to a default. There is a few noticeable differences.


1) The home button is plain and reflective, unlike the Microsoft and 3rd Party controllers were they usually have the Xbox Logo around the home button.

2) Unlike the Microsoft and 3rd Party brand controllers,  the Chinese Xbox 360 controller has no writing on the back at all.
3) To be expected,  the  build quality of the Chinese Xbox 360 controller is also cheaper.


Pros:
The Analog sticks are good.  I've used them and haven't noticed any deadzones within the sticks so this controller will respond to even the slightest bit of movement.  The only problem is the analogs sticks are hard to click when they are outside of the middle position.

Unfortunately the directional pad is the same as the Microsoft Xbox 360 controller.    Now Normally I'd list this as a con, but because Microsoft is also guilty of making the horrible d-pad I'll let this slide.

The X-Y-B-A buttons are the same as the Microsoft Xbox 360 controller and respond perfectly fine.

Cons:
Bumpers feel loose. Thankfully, this isn't a real problem as the bumper haven't broke on me.

The Triggers will only respond when they are half-way pressed  meaning there is some degree of deadzone here. It's probably going to be more noticeable in racing games when you slightly position the triggers to go slow, and then press the triggers down more to go faster.

The Verdict:

Obviously no controller ever comes to the Quality of the Official Microsoft Controllers unless they are more expensive to buy.  For the price of 16 to 17 bucks this gamepad scores a 7 out of 10.

It seems like a good controller in my opinion. I have tried an Xbox360 controller twice and it just did not feel right. I am far too used to the Sony Playstation controllers to use anything else. The Playstation controllers just feel so perfect to me.
 
I feel that you did a fine job of review for a controller. Also if the controller is cheaper then it will be made cheaper. That is just how it goes.

awesomeguy279 :

I know how you feel. 
The PS controllers were fine for the most part,  the only expection being the ps3 with the garbage analog triggers.

It took me a while to get used to the 360 layout, I really prefer the analogs to be together rather then off set.


If I remember correctly, there are multi tutorials to get a ps3 or ps4 controller to work on a PC.  But it'll only work if you have a bluetooth  or a Micro usb plugged into the controller.
