    Great Controller for Young Childre
    I purchased this for my 5 Year old daughter who is just starting to play kids games on my PS4. The Quality is very good for a basic controller for a child but would not recommend for an adult. Main reason is the sticks have a very different tension on compared to an official PS4 Controller and the top of the Stick is not rubberised like the official Controller. Please also note that this does not have Vibration Feedback, Motion Sense or have a touchpad. The Touchpad work around is a button that is initially very tricky to work out. The buttons on top (R1, R2 etc) feel very different i.e. easier to push in and have no sensitivity, so it’s either button full on or not. Just be careful if you are purchasing this as a cheap second controller to play with friends. My main reason was the Brand make good Controllers and was a smaller size for my Daughter. Overall yes it has a lot of features missing compared to the Official Sony one but it is well made and cheaper in comparison. Loses a star due to the fiddly Touchpad Button.

    Unexpected bonus compatability
    Have found that this controller is also compatible with the PC Engine core grafx minI console. (Only the Dpad works not the analogue sticks.) As the console only comes with one controller and the extra controllers are currently unvailabile this is an alternative for now for those wanting multiplayer gaming.

    Great device, just not for me
    I like the idea of this product, i had to return it as it was actually too small for my hands, which made me laugh when i tried to use the sticks and my thumbs would collide a lot.

    I did notice that during fighting games aka street fighter doing certain commands on the D-pad was a little harder but overall the build quality of the device feels nice and the length of the cable was handy.

    Great controller, perfect size for my 7 year old twins hands (so no more excuses for when Inthrash them at Fifa!) Very sturdy & well made, lovely bright colour & long cable. Actually writing this review over 1 year after purchase & still working absolutely fine.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersOttimo per i bambini. Cavo lungo 3 metri...
    Ho acquistato questo controller per far avvicinare alla PS4 i miei bimbi, di 4 e 8 anni, che vedevo facevano fatica, soprattutto il pi piccolo, a utilizzare il controller originale con una sola mano, in particolare le leve R e L.
    Detto fatto, seguendo il consiglio di un amico, mi sono orientato su questo controller che davvero compatto e calza a pennello per le manine dei miei bimbi.

    Unica pecca, ma per mia necessit, che avendo il divano a circa 5 metri dal televisore avrei preferito una soluzione wireless che per leggendo varie recensioni non sono riuscito a trovare di qualit tra i compatti.
    Questo controller ha comunque un cavo di 3 metri e i bimbi si siedono sul tappeto a giocare.

    Quattro stelline e non cinque per la plasticosit e per la relativa sensazione di possibile rottura che per ora non si concretizzata. Dopo due mesi di utilizzo intensivo, dovuto anche al lockdown, il controller ancora perfettamente integro, il che mi fa sperare per un seguito felice, a meno che non me lo inizino a tirare in testa quando mi diletto a prenderli in giro dopo averli battuti 🙂 Lo so, sono un pap perfido con la sindrome di Peter Pan 🙂 🙂

    Spero che questa recensione vi sia stata utile.

    perfetto per i bimbi
    mio figlio di 5 anni lo adora, leggermente pi piccolo rispetto al classico joypad ps4 e si trova meglio, tasti pi accessibili, va bene anche per gli adulti.
    il filo ha 3Mt di lunghezza e non ha LAG input.
    Se fosse ancora un p pi piccolo sarebbe solo per bambini dai 4 ai 10 anni per la loro manovrabilit aumenterebbe.
    cosi lo si rende un valido Joypad per bambini adulti e anche su PS Tv

    Exactly what I wanted… While we’re all currently locked down at home my 3 year old son has been bored senseless, he likes watching me on games so I decided to buy him a lego game. He loved it but the DS4 was way too big for him, but this mini controller is perfect! He now plays with ease, there are a few things missing compared with the DS4 but as it’s for kids they’re not needed anyway.

    It’s still *slightly* big for my large almost-three-year-old’s hands, but he handles it much better than the original controller for sure. He seems to be enjoying Burnout Paradise a lot more!

    The cable is frustrating, and I’m always concerned my eldest or the baby is going to yank the cable and bring the ps4 (and possibly the tv) crashing down. But I get that no battery makes it smaller and lighter.

    It’s also slightly frustrating that it doesn’t appear to be possible to turn on the PS4 using the controller. Of course, because it’s wired, and we have to keep it next to the console anyway, manually turning on the console directly isn’t that big of a deal.

    Overall, quite pleased!

    Pues yo he de decir que aunque tena bajas espectativas sobre el mando y pensaba que sera cutre… no ha sido as. La verdad es que me gusta tanto que sin darme cuenta lo estoy usando ms que el normal. Y eso es porque va muy bien.

    Tiene buen tacto, tamao un poco pequeo pero razonable, se siente bien en las manos, botones con buena respuesta, las palancas funcionan muy bien aunque no son rugosas y se te puede resbalar en alguna ocasin… eso lo he solucionado con unas capuchas de goma para mejor agarre. Tambin le aadira algo de peso al mando.

    Conclusin: A pesar de los contras que le pongo le he puedo 5 estrellas porque lo que ofrece por menos de 20 ha cumplido mis espectativas de sobra. Hay gente que dice que es para casuals… yo no soy casual y me encanta. Tanto que me quiero coger otro en azul…

    Initially I bought this for use on my Playstation Mini. I wanted at least one pad with analogue control so I tried one of these. It says it’s designed with kids in mind, but holding it is not uncomfortable for me, and I have quite big hands. This worked perfectly with my Playstation Mini on Retroarch and Autobleem. On PC it works flawlessly with any emulators, or Windows or Steam games. I also found out it works on an android phone using an OTG USB connector. Brilliant product.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersDurable, great for kids even for 3yo.
    As a gamer and father we play on our PS4 with my son.

    After realising that the regular controller is to big for him I bought this child version.

    Delivery: Fast
    Package: Neat and safe
    Durability: really sturdy, fell done a few times no issues or minor scratches worst case.
    Weight: really really lightweight, that is why it feels down a few times as well.
    Use: feels awkward when I play with it compared to the usual controller, but for a childe it is totally good. Just the right size.
    Battery: Only cabel version. The cable is so so so long I almost fell over once in it :D, so bevare.

    Overall for a child, it is a good buy.

    See the picture included for comparison and look.

    Buon controlle
    E’ un piccolo controller per ps4 a misura di bambino. In generale la mia opinione positiva per quanto riguarda la maneggevolezza e la solidit. E’ infatti caduto numerose (trope!) volte senza per accusare il danno.
    Unica nota d’attenzione: non pu essere usato con tutti i giochi ps4 n con quelli ps3 su ps now.
    Per i primi il problema la mancanza di giroscopio all’interno che rende impissibile i giochi basati sul movimento del controller stesso (ad esempio journey).
    Per quanto riguarda ps now manca la parte touchpad quindi non possibile avere i tasti start e select di giochi ps3.
    A parte questo ripeto un buon primo Joypad

    Used by a 6 year old. Just say fits his hands with some reaching, but so much better than the standard controller in terms of size. It works well and no problems.

    Down sides are no rumble/vibrate and the L2/R2 buttons are simple on/off rather than a range of movement or action. This means games such as car games are tricky and you’re unable to gently control movement.

    Golden Review Award: 14 From Our UsersGreat controller for young players
    I bought this for my 7-year old daughter who is just beginning to play games that require both analogue sticks. She was finding it difficult to use the PS4 dual shock as the grips were too large for her to use the sticks and triggers at the same time, making some control schemes frustrating.

    The Mini Gamepad really works well – it’s size makes it much easier to move thumbs from the sticks to the face buttons and also to use the shoulder buttons. My daughter finds it much easier to play.

    It is an official controller and so it has support for the touchpad controls, though this is through a button and use of a stick – the controller is too spall to feature an actual pad. We haven’t used this controller with any game that demands a lot of touchpad input, so I can’t really comment on this, though I would guess that fast access to lots of swiping, etc isn’t anywhere near as easy as on the regular dual shock.

    The controller is wired, though it’s a very long cable – more than long enough for most, and longer than the old PS wired controllers! It doesn’t allow for switching on of the console, so you’ll need to press the power button and then activate the controller (shows just how lazy we’ve got, if we’re grumbling about this).

    As other reviewers have mentioned, the triggers on this are just buttons, but this is a kid’s controller, and anyone old enough to be playing at a proper level on a shooter should using a regular controller!

    If there’s a downside, it’s that it does feel a little lightweight and I do worry about how many drops it’ll handle (it’s survived about a half-dozen that I know of so far!). However at this price it’s ideal. Highly recommended.

    What a gem of a product! My 7 year old loves that he can play games with his big brother and his hands can touch all of the buttons.

    some of the moves that require a double touch don’t work but these type of moves aren’t meant for 7 year olds anyway so it doesn’t affect his understanding or game play enjoyment.

    So much cheaper than the standard controller, so gets 4 for value for money.

    The buttons aren’t quite as nice as the original – in particular the joysticks are a lot more springy, making it harder to do anything precise – and the virtual touchpad is essentially unuseable.

    But for playing lego dimensions with my 6 year old son, it’s perfect!

    What a great little controller not only for kids, but also as a standby second controller for anyone else who wants to use it. Perfect for my 5 year old to reach all the buttons, but chunky enough that my 35 year old hands can use it quite comfortably as well. Feels very well made, and the cable is a good length. Lacks the touchpad and speaker functionality of the full-fat PS4 controller, but I never use these anyway. Delighted with this.

Hinsichtlich Gre und Haptik, hatte ich den Eindruck, dass sich beide Joypads sehr hneln.
    Wer lange am original Pad der Ps4 gezockt hat, fr den stellt das Hori natrlich erst einmal eine Umgewhnung dar, da das Touchpad durch drei gummierte Knpfe ersetzt wurde, die Schultertasten weiter nach Innen gewandert sind und die einzelnen Kunsttoffknpfe und die beiden Sticks bei der Bewegung Klick Gerusche von sich geben . Doch das war fr mich nach einiger Zeit alles kein Thema mehr und ich freute mich u.A.ber die ppige Kabellnge von 3 Metern. Ich kann das Horipad auf jeden Fall empfehlen.

    Great for 16bit/8bit console emulation on PC and Fighting games
    I use this on PC for playing with SNES, NES, MD and SMS emulators and it works a treat. Better than those cheapo replica usb pads and provides a more authentic feel in comparison to using a modern controller.

    Build quality is excellent and the pad feels great if you are using it like a SNES controller. The d-pad is concave and can take a bit of getting used to and there are no triggers. The wire is really long and there a plenty of extra buttons to remap to various functions such as load/save state etc.

    It’s pretty decent for fighting games and any kind of modern platformers. Using it for other modern games that use twin sticks can prove difficult due to the general size of the controller and the lack of space between the sticks. For me this is not a problem as i only use the d-pad and face/shoulder buttons.

    Connecting to an emulator is no problem as most of them use DInput and recognise the pad in an instant. Ironically the SNES emulator did not work and in this case Xpadder had to be used.

    Highly recommended for kids or people with small hands or if you are just using the dpad or one stick to move.

    Brilliant but if you’re prone to throwing or bashing your controller, it will rattle pretty fas

    good controlle
    A good game pad. A little on the small side, but large enough for an adult to comfortably play fifa for hours. A good choice for your 2nd/guest controller if you don’t want to pay the stupid price for the official Sony controller.

    I wouldn't recommend it for shooters but great for anything else
    Cable is a bit plasticky but otherwise this controller is OK. I wouldn’t recommend it for shooters but great for anything else.

    Purchased this controller for my 4 year old daughter as the standard dual shock was too big for her small hands. The mini pad fits her hands perfectly and she can now play much easie

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersSmall, but perfectly formed.
    I ended up returning the controller. I purchased as a back up, but was too small for me to use.

    However, thought the product itself was of a very decent quality, so much so I recommended to friend with a couple of young kids, pre-teens. He reports the kids find them perfect to use, in terms of size for small hands and fingers.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersMini, troppo Mini
    Proveniente da una ditta esperta nei controller specifici (fightpad, arcade stick, etc.), l’Hori Mini un controller all’antica, con croce digitale grande (utile per i giochi 2d), leggero, con cavo (senza problemi di input lag e ricarica) e privo di funzioni superflue come vibrazione, altoparlante interno e Sixaxis. Inoltre, il pannello tattile semplificato, e la funzione puntatore svolta da una piccola protuberanza simile al C-Stick del 3DS (alcuni lo chiamano “nipple”).
    Il tutto funzionale, ed effettivamente adatto ai bambini (il ragazzino – 6 anni – lo ha gradito), ma per mani adulte pu essere un po’ scomodo, specie per i tasti dorsali, molto ravvicinati fra di loro. In particolare L2 e R2 non sono pi grilletti ma solo degli R1 pi grandi.

    Nel complesso il prodotto buono, ma richiede un po’ di abitudine. Se cercate un controller PS4 ridotto, cablato ed economico (ma un po’ pi pesante), consiglio di provare anche il Nacon Compact.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersBon sur PS4, un peu moins bien sur RPI ou Mac
    En tant qu’alternative au pad PS4 cette manette est excellente. Sa petite taille n’est pas un problme pour les grande main: en fait elle est assez paisse et donne l’impression d’avoir un gros pad NES dans la main, sans pour autant que le surplus de boutons la rende problmatique.

    Finition irrprochable comme tous les produits Hori que j’ai eu.

    Un seul souci: teste sur Raspberry Pi (Retropie) et Mac (OpenEmu), la croix de direction semble perdre le signal quand j’appui en continu dans une direction. A voir sur la dure. Les pads Hori Fighting Commander PS3 et PS4 n’ont pas ce problme.

    Feels cheap but does it's job well
    Bought as a gift for brother along with multiplayer games – we already have two controllers but are a big busy family and this was an affordable controller to have for visitors.
    Feels very cheap and plastic, is also very small and a bit odd the first time you use. Despite all of that it works as well as the other controllers and means everyone can take part.

    Son loves it more than official full size pad
    Son loves it. He’s 9 and he thinks it’s much better than the official one, which is great as it’s half the price. Feels a little cheaply made to me though. Great if it lasts.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersOttimo pad ma attenzione non funziona con la PlayStation Tv
    Il pad piccolo ma non scomodo appena collegato stato riconosciuto subito. Lo avevo comprato in origine per utilizzarlo sulla pstv (per non dover ogni volta resettare e associare uno dei pad della ps4) ma una volta collegato ho visto che non riconosciuto. Vabb esperimento fallito. Comunque il pad reagisce bene e con un po’ di pratica pu simulare il touchpad. Lo considero un buon acquisto

    Wired Gamepad that actually work's
    Great little Gamepad and it is little! but it does work and works well. The only issue is it won’t turn your PS4 on and you don’t have the touch pad but everything else works fine and you don’t have to worry about your Gamepad dying on you

    Golden Review Award: 18 From Our UsersPerfect for little hands!
    This is the perfect mini PlayStation controller for little hands and my daughter loves it. She always struggled with the larger controller, but commented straight away how much easier this was to hold and use. I have to say even as an adult, I would have no issues using this as a second controller, it feels really comfortable and responsive.

    The controller feels high quality and the buttons feel similar to that of a standard ps controller, the cable is nice and long (3m / 10ft) to allow anyone to sit back away from the tv.

    The controller is currently available in 3-colours, black, red or blue. We went for the black, so it matched in with our existing ones.

    Overall, very impressed and a good buy, good value and would recommend.

    Fantastic controller.
    I purchased my one from eBay at the time because it was cheaper that listed.

    The controller takes a bit of getting used to if you’re used to the Dualshock 4 but feels great after that, I feel the triggers need a bit more space in-between them but that’s just me, I have the blue one and it looks great and it’s way cheaper than the dualshock 4, if you want a great feeling low price controller for PS4 then look no further as this is it.

    My controller was tested on Destiny 2 for 1 hour 30 minutes and worked perfectly, couldn’t test it on PC or a PS4 Pro though as I do not have them.

    Golden Review Award: 12 From Our UsersGood arcade controlle
    I preordered a blue one and received a red one of these thinking it was going to be a handy spare controller, it’s actually become my main controller. It’s main down side it’s the L2 and R2 have no squeeze they are either on or off so this controller is no good for anything where you need precision control like get sport. But for arcade style button mashing games it’s great.
