This review is from: PS3 Slim - Radium Wireless Controller (Accessory)

Bought this controller on impulse because it was the "Deal of the Day".

Pros:

- It looks pretty good.

- Has good weight to it.

- Build quality is good. It doesn't feel cheap.

- Rumble and Sixaxis built in.

- Buttons feel good.

- Wireless.

- Has a Turbo feature which works well.

Cons:

- Uses 3 AAA batteries. What do I do with the 1 leftover from the 4 pack? Nothing I own uses 1 AAA battery.

- The analog sticks are a bit too sensitive IMO.

- Uses a USB dongle(which is too wide).

Overall, I like this controller. Nice alternative to the DS3 with a couple of minor flaws.

2.0 out of 5 stars works fine, but won't stay synced, February 16, 2011

This review is from: PS3 Slim - Radium Wireless Controller (Accessory)

I bought this unit and it took fooooreeeevvver to get it to sync up to the PS3. Following the instructions explicitly, it simply refused to sync up over and over and over. It eventually did sync up. Once it synced up, it worked fine - until I shut down the controller and PS3. Then, to make matters worse, every time I go to use it (about once a week) I have to re-sync it to the controller - again and again and again....., and it's the same problematic sync issues every time, often taking 20 to 30 minutes before it will finally sync. Stay away from it.

Product DOA-Controller doesn't light up to select controller number. Called Tech support they promise return call in 48 hours plus website states you are responsible for shipping fees and insurance. Amazon needs to drop this product line. Lack of quality support.
