iPega PG-9078
 | Outdated Product Cross-platform gamepad from iPega with USB or wireless Bluetooth connectivity. The manipulator belongs more to the entry level and is essentially an affordable replica of the beloved Dual Shock 4, repeating its design and key layout. The layout of the buttons looks extremely familiar and does not require getting used to: the main unit with four control buttons is located on the right, a crosspiece is on the left, a pair of symmetrical sticks flaunts in the center, and 4 shifts are hidden on the sides to control auxiliary functions. The design of the case, the material of the handles and side inserts were also borrowed from the DualShock. Although, the overall quality of performance here is not as high as that of Sony. The difference lies in the fact that the main buttons are made in the AB...XY format like the Xbox Controller, and the center panel can be opened and pulled out, turning it into a convenient holder for a smartphone with a secure lock. iPega PG-9078 does not require complex installation - just connect it via Bluetooth (range 8 meters) or USB cable and you can play. The manufacturer guarantees full compatibility with Windows-based personal computers and laptops, as well as with most Android-based smartphones. Built-in battery provides up to 10 hours of battery life. |

Affordable wireless gamepad
Competing with Sony, Microsoft and Logitech on their field is difficult, so manufacturers of second-tier gamepads have to attract potential buyers in their own way. In the case of the iPega PG-9078, this is multi-platform and an attractive price tag.
Support for smartphones and TV boxes
Let's start with the omnivorousness of the PG-9078: it can work with smartphones, tablets and TV boxes based on Android, with smartphones and tablets based on iOS and PCs on Windows. The manipulator connects to computers not only via Bluetooth, but also via a wire that connects to the microUSB connector of the gamepad. To work with smartphones, the kit includes a special mount that holds the handset over the gamepad like in the Nvidia Shield. The main thing is that the screen diagonal does not exceed 5.5 inches, otherwise the mount may not be wide enough. Although, by the standards of today's frameless smartphones, this is not so much.
Classic design
In terms of usability, Chinese gamepads are a pure lottery. Even in the line of one company, you can find bad, good, and even excellent examples. iPega have eaten a dog in this matter and in the case of PG-9078, if not hit the bull's eye, then somewhere very close. The sticks are smooth, with clear orientation in space, the triggers/shifts are pressed easily and smoothly, and the gamepad itself fits comfortably in the hands. In the latter case, thanks to the time-tested design (hello, Dual Shock) and the base made of ribbed plastic, which does not allow the gamepad to slide in the heat of battle. Of course, it does not reach the convenience of DualShock 4, but even getting close to its level is already a success.
2 times cheaper than Dual Shock
Against the background of all the above, the only thing that can be criticized is the wireless connection. Pairing is elementary, maintaining a reliable connection, but sometimes the gamepad for some reason refuses to see a specific device. And it does not matter whether it is a tablet or a laptop. But this is well compensated by the price, the iPega PG-9078 will cost about 2 times cheaper than the DualShock 4 or Logitech F710.
