IMPORTANT, everyone with trouble with this controller follows this steps.

I USED CONDUCTIVE TAPE INSIDE OF THE CONTROLLERS TO BLOCK THE 5G SIGNAL FROM THE PHONE WHICH CAUSE INTERFERENCE, DOING THIS HELPS A LOT TO THE BLUETOOTH CONNECTION. ALSO Scan the QR code in the back of the controllers, is gonna take you to a website, choose this controller download the app updater go down to the STABLE VERSION, NOT the last version, right there it is a video explaining how to set up the controller to update firmware

I will give 5 starts if it was a little easier to do all the steps to update the controller, the average person will no be able to do all this steps.

POS - Doesn't work as advertised.

It only works with their game library which is not very extensive. No remapping. Terrible, terrible product with zero functionality outside of their limited system.

Decent for mobile gaming

This is a standalone Bluetooth controller set for your phone.

The left and right controller do not share a battery source and need to be charged independently which can be cumbersome; however, it has the benefit of not drawing on your phones battery.

While it is not as polished as some of the more expensive alternatives, it is a good overall handset with limited latency. Seems to work well with most streaming game services on the iPhone.

Instructions for matching button is complicated but android native supported games works great

I am using this with my pixel 7, right side fit very well but left side is slightly wiggled because of the thickness of camera. It won't effected the usage of the controller just not perfect look.

The manual on the website is a little difficult and not sure what to start. Apparently there are many ways to use this controller but need to follow the instructions step by step with the corresponding app installation which is hard for most people.

But it's easy and smooth to use by playing android native support games. For example, Diablo immortal, I just need to turn on and Bluetooth connect to "Xbox wireless controller". Then it's working like a charm and made this game a lot more fun with all the bottoms on this controller.

Few things can be improved with this controller. First, the magnetic to attach left and right holder is too weak and can't hold it tight when carry. Second, it has to separated charging both controller, I wish it can be charging with one usb c cord when putting together(for the future model). Third, it will be great if they can integrate firmware upgrade, test tool and mapping tool in one app instead of power on with different way and using different apps.

Fairly decent mobile controller

The controller is pretty sturdy. The buttons are a tad bit mushy and it does rattle a little bit. They pair as an Xbox controller and connected pretty quickly. They are charged separately via USB-C unfortunately being the only downside. The separate charging is not a norm for newer controllers, but it’s not that bad. The battery life stands for quite a long time which levels out the negatives it provides. If you are looking for a gaming controller for mobile gaming then this is somewhat a decent one to pick up at the price though you could find cheaper that just connect via plug in, without having bluetooth.

Works with Xbox Cloud Gaming!

Got this to use with my iPhone 13 Pro to play games with Xbox Cloud gaming. It works great. Set up is a little confusing but otherwise was easy to get up and running. The controller is two separate pieces with tension clips to hold your phone. It doesn’t wiggle and works with my Nomad case attached. I also have a Razer Kishi controller for my phone but it doesn’t work well with the flat edges of the phone and I have to remove my case. One other feature that I like is that this is bluetooth versus having to use the port on your phone which makes this relatively future proof if you switch phone platforms.

The build quality is decent if not a bit light. I’m not sure it could sustain a fall without breaking but that’s generally not a concern for me. Overall I got exactly what I expected. An inexpensive controller that works well with Xbox Cloud gaming. Very happy and for this price I would definitely recommend.

It's not the worst

It works! I like that they snap together with magnets and that they sync with each other to act as a single controller. (You only pair one device on your phone.)

Pairs nicely and quickly from sleep, and my phone sounds good, though that might depend on your phone model's speaker placement.

I like this, I really do, but it has some issues that require an entire redo of the model.

1) If your phone has giant cameras hanging off the back (iphone 13 pro here), this still holds it in place, but the top adjustable piece just sits on top of the phone and its lip doesn't go over it. It shouldn't have a lip, because phones vary in thickness.

2) It's very close to mashing the volume button on my phone. Needs to maybe have not as much bottom edge?

3) Top buttons (LB/RB) are a pain to press. Unsure where to press correctly and have them respond the way I need them to. They work, it's just not the best. Some spots are mushier than others when you press. RB sometimes sticks. Fun!

4) Right analog stick placement is actually super awkward. Dpad, too. You have to hold your hand funny to even use them and it'll put some strain on your hand after a short bit. Needs longer grips. Layout/space was obviously saved in the name of portability.

5) Needs a carrying bag. Something to protect it. It's obvious this product is about compact portability with how it snaps together in a small package. Even just a drawstring bag.

It turned out to be better than expected.

First off, it works on Android's version of "Call of Duty Mobile" natively in "Xbox Wireless controller" mode and "PUBG Mobile" / "New State Mobile" in "MOCUTE-VTF-x-B" mode.

Yes , this is a MOCUTE brand controller "MOCUTE

-061F".

My reasons for trying this controller was because I wanted one I could use on game which activily block devices using developer mode, could be used on phones longer than 171mm , and not priced too high. This seems to cover all of that for me.

The biggest issues I've been having with other controllers was that the mapping could only be done with an app which requires the phone to be in developer mode.

While there is a suggested app for this I haven't used it , due to it's low rating in the play store, but using the app doesn't seem to be necessary.

In MOCUTE-VTF-x-B mode there seems to be a default screen map ,I should have an image of it uploaded. The right analog act like an infinite look swipe ,so I didn't include it's operational range.

Both controller are detected as a single unit when both are on.

Only issue I have with this controller is that if I want to use it in a different mode I have forget the previous connection and pair it while in the other mode. It will not or I haven't figured a way to have multiple modes paired on a single device.

_______________

The QR code shown in merchant's picture seems to not be related to this product and the QR code on the device leads to the APK download from MOCUTE's site. They don't seem to have the app in the play store.

The correct app is made for an older version of Android and does not have the same security features, so use with caution.

While it is usable on Android 12 , it was a little buggy when allowing the floating widget UI for the first time.

If you've used a screen mapper on Android before, you shouldn't have any issues setting this up. It's very basic and doesn't require you to be in developer mode.
