Summary

The SC3 Wireless pad is a beast of a controller. The initial appearance is it looks like a chunky Dualshock 4 or a PlayStation 5 controller, it looks like a general run-of-mill third-party pad. Turn it on and instantly it starts to feel premium, I love the colors on it as they flow around the controller, the cycle all colors feature being a particular winner. The buttons are clicked and responsive, the d-pad is one of the best d-pads I have used in a while with a squishy yet responsive control feel. I use it a lot with my Nintendo Switch and it did connect to my mobile but you do need a decent way of setting up the phone and controller. it does have its own rumble motors set within the triggers so you feel every button press in-game, it’s not haptic but it does the job. The controller doesn’t offer as much as the last one in the series but it is still a functional decent controller. In summary, I think the pad still looks like a chunky boy and does have the air of looking cheaper than it is, use or even just hold the pad and you can feel where the quality is from the lighting to the customisation to the excellent buttons and sticks, being able to change the height of each thumbstick is brilliant. At the end of the day, if you don’t have a Wireless Nintendo Switch controller then this is the next best thing.
