SteelSeries Stratus XL - The AfterPad Review

The controller is available now on Amazon and from Apple.

Great review. I purchased one recently and fortunately have not experienced the sensitive trigger issues you mentioned. I believe others have expressed the same under the comments of the original blog post.

The design of this controller is amazing and genuinely feels "first party." Love it! One thing that gets me is that you need to purchase a stand for your iPhone. I purchased one online for $2, so it's not a major loss.

I'm grabbing another one of these pads soon. I know many people have had better experiences with the controller than I have, and it's possible SteelSeries tweaked some things, as I had a first-run model.

Hopefully this time goes better...
