    • El Chyeah on 04/10/2022 - 21:43

      It's an older model, videos on YouTube show it working fine with the fold

    Man, i just bought a switch and fail to see how this is of any use to me.

      Can use to stream Xbox, PlayStation or steam games locally or remotely if your upload supports. Can stream gamepass games from the cloud, or run emulators and ROMs. This is also the only android controller grip I know of that supposedly works with cod mobile without requiring any third party software

    It was letting me check out but the cheapo in me switched to my OnePass account and by then it was gone :(

        Oh well wasted opportunity. But maybe just saved myself $30 from ewaste as I didn't even check if it would fit my Fold 2.

    Back again, seems to be fluctuating back and forth

    Seems gone for good now. Probably a good thing as I couldn't resist to buy despite having no need.

    This is higher quality than most Chinese controllers. With that said, it's not as ergonomic as a DualShock 5/PS5 controller. So at $28 shipped it is good value, but perhaps not best value.
    Why?
    It's large and cumbersome. You won't be treating this like a gameboy, as you can't just whip it out of your pocket, certainly not jeans. You'll have to lug it around in a backpack, meaning it's mostly an indoors device (ie iPad). So if you don't get any size advantage, there's not much to it then. For cheaper price like $5+ you can get a phone clip. Add it to your existing controller at home, and you'll have a much higher quality and ergonomic gamepad which will also require a backpack. At which point I would say, have a serious look at the Valve SteamDeck.

    Alternatives I recommend you to look at:
    - Sony DS5 controller or XSX gamepad (and Phone Clip)
    - 8bit Do Pro 2 (with Phone Clip)
    - iPega 9218 (Gold Soldier)
    - GameSir T1s
    - GameSir X2
    - GameSir X3
    - iPega 9167 (Double-Spike)
    - Razer Kishi
    - Razer JungleCat (only pocketable option)
    - Custom Print a Case for your phone with Rails to fit Joycons from Nintendo Switch

    Other miscellaneous:
    - iPega 9118 (Golden Warrior)
    - iPega 9099 (Wolverine)
    - iPega 9090 (Blue Elf)
    - iPega 9210 (Spiderman)
    - iPega 9088 (Future Soldier)
    - iPega 9156 (PUBG)
    - iPega 9077 (Batman)
    - iPega 9076 (Man Bat)
    - iPega 9055 (Red Spider)
    - iPega 9083 (Red Bat)
    - iPega 9023 (Telescope)

    • El Chyeah on 05/10/2022 - 09:23

      I own a clip, found it to be too top heavy back when I had a note 9, also I doubt my galaxy fold would fit in the current ones available in market. 3d printed options on eBay seem to go for $50.

      I prefer the even weight distribution of a grip, even for home use. I also carry a backpack on my daily commute, so don't mind having this in there. It's not like the Nintendo switch fits in a pocket either.

      I'm also unsure where to even buy a steam deck in Australia, let alone for anywhere near the asking price of this.

    • Bretttick on 05/10/2022 - 10:26

      I don't recommend kishi v1 it's overpriced junk. Look up left side not working

  • jwh on 05/10/2022 - 12:10

    Whether it was a price error or not, my order just got refunded.

    We regret to inform you that there was a listing error where catch was listing the incorrect item under this listing. Therefore, this resulted in the gamepad being listed at $16 when we were actually in fact selling a tripod for $16

    • snoopydoop on 05/10/2022 - 14:56

      Yeah, same.

      For next time, is there somewhere that this could have been price matched with? Or not really for Catch?

  • Iamladrt on 05/10/2022 - 12:46

    Got cancellation email too and wrong listing. Sad life

    Been after this controller for quite sometime now for my Fold 2. Cheapest (legit) one so far I've seen is at Amazon.

    So they're refunding orders saying price error, but its still listed for $18? (its up for that price again right now lol)

  • Grayjay on 05/10/2022 - 23:41

    Price is up again? Just ordered one. lets see how it goes.

    • superforever on 06/10/2022 - 00:17

      Same, let see 🙄

      • WARvault on 06/10/2022 - 07:46

        Me too!

    • superforever on 06/10/2022 - 12:20

      Price is up again?

      Should be price is down again XD

  • spacemannn on 06/10/2022 - 11:46

    Back down to $18 as of posting this

    Seriously how many times can they make the error and not honour it?

    • Broody on 06/10/2022 - 18:17

      I Agree Grayjay,

      Catch and JW Computers Online cannot keep on using the excuse of relisting it by mistake as it should of been a $18 Tripod.

      Maybe they have the money they have received in the short term money market, make a couple of extra dollars on the money market and then refund all orders. A thought.

      • Grayjay on 06/10/2022 - 18:41

        Yeah I got the same excuse as you. They state they've never actually stocked this controller. They've already issued my refund

        • Broody on 06/10/2022 - 19:06

          Bummer after I posted, I also received the cancellation email.

          I feel this cannot just happen over and over. It's planned and calculated to make money or create internet traffic to their site.

          Now I have to wait until the 10 October for a refund from PayPal to reach my account.

  • superforever on 06/10/2022 - 15:09

    $159 again by Syntricate not JW computer.

  • Broody on 06/10/2022 - 18:01

    Hi All,

    I took a punt and ordered yesterday 6/10 at 8.10pm. As of today 6.00pm my orders status is still indicating In Progress.

    Hopefully they do honor this Price of $29.95.

    • superforever on 06/10/2022 - 18:39

      Cancel email just arrived, they said the listing should be a tripod and they don't stock the Glap gamepad

      • Broody on 06/10/2022 - 18:56

        Yep.

        I talked to soon Bummer. Exactly the same comments. Just not right make a mistake once, but twice.

      • serbpie on 07/10/2022 - 00:56

        Got my cancellation too.. I didnt need a game pad, I don't play phone games but ordered one anyway because it was a good deal and now I now I'm upset that I didnt get something I didnt need. Are these OzB highs and lows worth it?

        • superforever on 07/10/2022 - 09:33
