Man I love this controller! My experience is one that pleases me greatly and I’m very happy with my purchase. It connected so easily through Bluetooth to my Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 and my LG Aristo 3+ cell phone and an old Kyocera Hydro Wave even! It works through the 2.4Ghz dongle to all 3 of my pc’s and the connection is just as flawless. I can notice no lag on any of the emulators I run on my tablet or PC and was pleasantly surprised by this. The battery life has been what seems to be better than the 20 hours its advertised as. Great build quality, perfect size and ergonomics for my average hands, and overall a super great purchase. I paid about $34 for it with free Prime shipping when EVERYWHERE else on the web had it listed at $59.99. I feel I got a great controller for a super deal and am all the way pleased. Hell it sounds like I work for these people or something lol (I do not for the record) but when I get a great product, especially at a great price, I’ll go out of my way to leave great feedback that hopefully helps the next guy. I try to include info that other reviewers didn’t or answer a question i had when looking to buy the product. If you’re looking for an awesome controller at an unbeatable price look no further. It being a dual wireless controller was the icing on the cake for me. Good stuff good stuff I promise

…poorly made analog sticks.
*this review was done after almost a year of gaming during the pandemic, up until about two months ago*
This is the second Stratus Duo that I’ve had in a few months. The first one I bought started having a drifting problem with the left analog stick and a squeaky right analog stick, which made most FPS unplayable.
Customer support was very prompt and helpful, refunded my purchase and offered to send a new one, even though I’d already ordered a new one ahead of time, which basically was the same as getting one sent for free.
The second controller was a whole lot better. This one lasted me about a year of playing games until two months ago, when the right analog stick “L3” and “R3” clicky buttons stopped registering. These particular buttons are usually default key mapped to something vital like sprinting. Short of remapping a new button, this made most of the games I play, unplayable.
I’m know I’m well out of the return window, and have thoroughly enjoyed using the Stratus Duo for the time that it’s been usable, but for now I’ve gone back to using a wired controller on my PC.
Now, the Pros:
– The build quality is excellent (except for the analog sticks). This controller definitely has some heft to it. Not as heavy as a Xbox controller, but also not as light as a PS3/4 controller. It’s super comfortable in your hands for several hours at a time. I have smaller hands, and 4-6 hours of button mashing produced not a single hand cramp, unless I was spamming a trigger bumper spraying and praying. Yes, I know, kb/mouse have the advantage over controllers in shooter games, but that’s not the point of this review now, is it? Material for the hand grips is soft and textured, and icky hand sweat doesn’t occur.
– Connecting this controller is super easy, on both Windows PC via USB adapter, and my Nvidia Shield TV via Bluetooth. I just plugged the little USB adapter in, and *poof*, like magic, instantly connected. On rare occasions would I have to press the “connect” button on the controller for Windows 10 to recognize the controller and connect.
– Charging takes no time at all with a fast charging brick.
– Customer Support (through Amazon) is awesome, super helpful, and for the most part, fairly quick with their replies. I can’t complain. 🙂
Unfortunately, the Cons:
– Analog L3/R3 clicky buttons started drifting, squeaking out of the box, or just stopped working. Short of remapping, this made my gaming sessions terrible. Maybe I’m an aggressive button masher, maybe I just like sprinting all over a map, all the time, like a marathon running with no “off” switch. Or, maybe I just got a bad batch of controllers. Either way, two controllers in a row with faulty analog sticks just kind of made me shelve this wonderful product and go back to an old wired controller.
I would’ve given more stars because I really do like the Stratus Duo controller. Games that don’t use the L3/R3 clicky buttons still work wonderfully, however, I don’t like the idea of having separate controllers for different games.
Is this the controller for you? If you want a dual connection controller that’s super comfortable to hold, then this is a worthy competitor in the controller market. Would I recommend this? Definitely.
Will I purchase another one in the future? Most positively possibly maybe yes. Maybe.

The Xbox Series X controller is great, but an additional wireless adapter (That doesn’t work very well) still needs to be purchased separately, it doesn’t have a rechargeable battery, and with batteries it becomes heavier than it should be. It’s still a great controller if you use it wired, but I don’t want to use it wired.
The Sratus Duo essentially provides a solution to every problem I have with the Xbox controller. It’s comfortable to hold and the buttons feel great. I beat Elden Ring with this thing.

Ottimo gamepad. Non troppo pesante, quindi non stanca anche durante lunghe sessioni di gioco. Ottima la durata della batterie. È possibile continuare ad usare il GamePad anche mentre è in ricarica! Perfetto.

I bought and used a lot of controllers. This is, by far, the highest quality controller I have purchased. Out of box comfortable and responsive. Fast charge and long battery life.

It’s always a roll of the dice with budget controllers and I’ve had bad luck in the past. They fire right up straight out of the box seeming like it’s good to go. But a few months later the drift starts, then there are connection problems, etc. But I’m happy to report, months later this controller still runs just as fine as it did out of the box. Very solid design and definitely worth the money.
