DREAMGEAR NEOGLOW Controller for Switch, PC, Android

The main reason I got this controller is because it reminds me of all the old clear plastic accessories from the 90s, especially the clear Nintendo 64 controllers that used to be around. This controller fits that aesthetic perfectly and I'm very happy with it. Quality wise it feels just as good as a Nintendo Pro controller does and the RGB effect is pretty awesome as well. Motion controls seem to work well enough, no complaints with any functionality. I highly recommend this controller, especially if you're looking for the old school clear plastic look.

The media could not be loaded. This controller works great for Nintendo Switch. It also works well with the TV when gaming through apps. All the functions work on this controller. Plus, it lights up, and changes color constantly. The see-through design is spectacular. Especially when playing in a darker room. The only thing I don't like is that the buttons don't actually light up. They are solid black. So if you aren't familiar with where each specific button is then you have to be in the right kind of light to be able to see the letters, or symbols on the buttons to be able to play. It's a bit of a hassle if you are a beginner. I don't know if it's less frustrating for higher tier gamers, because I don't really know anyone that is. It's a quality controller. It's just not easy to see which buttons are where. That's kind of a shame, because there is a button for every basic gaming function. But the symbol is the same color as the button. It's just too hard to see while you are using the controller to play a game.

I bought this at June 29, 2024 and it broke at June 30, 2024. The USB C port broke for only 2 days. Now, I can't use it on PC because that's the only way to make it work to play Warframe PC not through bluetooth.On top of that, there this damn "ghosting" is what you call it. The left analog stick moves by itself which is pretty annoying. I justified it by saying its only $40 because what I spent on a Nintendo Switch wireless Pikachu costed me $60.After I realized what happened, it was already too late because I threw away the receipt and the box like an idiot. So, I couldn't even complain. It's like chipped on the right side. This doesn't happen to my Nintendo Switch and Samsung Galaxy S10 USB Port C.Quality Assurance failed here.

I like playing my switch in bed, and want a real controller, not the joycon holder thing. This works great, esp4ecially for all of the old nintendo games I play. I don't mess with the lighting in there, so I can't speak to that, but it does work. The battery holds a charge longer than I do, so no complaints there, either. A+

The media could not be loaded. The shell is of reasonable quality. I just wasn't happy with the feel of the buttons. They are appropriately responsive, but the plastic just feels cheap.The light up feature is quite effective, but it could be overwhelming in a dark room.I had no problems pairing it with my Switch. I didn't encounter any issues with bad buttons or phantom inputs. However, I found the joystick to be perhaps a little too sensitive. That is, gentle tilts seemed to register as full presses.I'll need to play with it a bit more to be certain of how I feel about it. But so far, it feels like a decent controller with a nice light up feature. It could just use improvement in a few small areas.

This thing is an absolute piece of garbage. The left trigger kept activating nonstop the very first time I turned it on and wouldn’t stop. I don’t know if it was just the one I bought or what but to me it was not worth $40.

NOTE THIS CONTROLLER DOES NOT HAVE NFC SUPPORT SO YOU CANNOT USE AMIIBO'S WITH IT. THIS SHOULD BE CLEARLY STATEDOK, opening this thing ... do you know how fun it is to break into a battery blister pack and it just won't open - well take that experience and multiply it. I was just about ready to go after it with my teeth until it finally opened. So I can say it shipped secure.As usual, positives, neutrals, negatives -POSITIVES - OMG a 10' charging cable - oh my stars and garters it can't be - but it is - I've not seen one of these in controllers since like the Dualshock 2 (that being said see my negative about the cable below), it's bright - I mean REAL bright, the clarity of the shell is unique for sure so seeing the innards of the controller and vibration motor really is unique, has two nicely placed back buttons (but see below on them again), dedicated color change button - holy crap all you others take note of this, running it at full brightness might make your eyes go blind just warning you - did i say it was bright? - I can no longer see what I'm typing, D-pad is surprisingly nice - again not like the top notch D-pad but light years ahead of most 3rd party stuff, I like the triggers and bumpers - they are nice and clicky and feel nice smacking them around (but again see below), the thumb sticks are super stick and i like itNEUTRALS - analog sticks are your standard ALPS affair and are on par with the last generation XB1 controllers but grip at the top is slightly better - please give us HALL EFFECT - but the clicking (L3, R3) was pretty ok, instructions are thorough but like don't tell you anything, face buttons are just literally mehNEGATIVES - OK MY MAJOR GRIPE WITH THESE DANG 3RD PARTY CONTROLLERS - THE STUPID SCREW HOLE RIGHT WHERE YOUR FINGERS WRAP AROUND THE CONTROLLER - how many of these controllers have I encountered where that screw hole is literally right where my middle fingers wrap around the controller - it causes me a constant C7 dermatome irritation and I hate it - so I usually fix it by filling in that hole and it's fine - but like this could easily be avoided, the triggers and bumpers have NO grip on them - I had to fix this with some grip tape because I kept slipping off in racing games, the cable is one of those ones with the resistor in it to step it down to 5A - the downside is it freaking charges SLOW - I was testing it and getting 0.5A with 0.97V - that's just bad and it never went above this - so good it's long - bad its not going t charge your controller while using it - but keep it from dying it will, NO NFC SUPPORT ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!, the back buttons feel a lot like you are sticking your finger in an orifice of a wampa - they just are not satisfying and you are pretty confident you are about to get bitOverall, this will look nice on my wall of controllers, I don't have anything else to say about this ... although I may hide my money in the box it came in because it would be more secure than Fort Knox

Such a cool controller for the Switch. Super easy to connect and get gaming. Needs to be charged right out of the box, but once it’s charged the syncing is simple. My 12 y/o son connected it in literally 2 mins. Works great and has great response time. No lag.
