This is a decent quality, lightweight controller grip that works with the latest iOS 16 and iPadOS, tvOS, macOS etc. Turn it on with B + Power and it shows up as a PS4 Dualshock Controller for easy Apple device connection. It works with the latest iOS 16 and should work as far back as iOS 13 when they first added PS4 controller support. The power button doubles as the PS button.It feels very lightweight at 140g, two Switch joy-cons are 100g for comparison. The controller plus my iPhone 12 mini weigh 292g, a Switch is 403g. Controller plus iPad Mini 6 are 430g.The best part is it also works with iPadOS 16 as a WIRED USB-C controller! I plugged it in to my iPad Mini 6 with a USB-C cable and it works as a wired PS4 controller. I disabled bluetooth on the iPad to confirm that it was indeed working over USB. To connect it as a wired PS4 controller, first turn on the controller in PS4 mode with B+Power, then plug in the USB cable.It also works wired on iPhone the same way a wired PS4 controller would. Plug the controller into a powered USB hub (if you don't have a powered Lightning adapter) then plug the hub into a Lightning - USB camera connection kit adapter. Tested on iPhone 12 mini.Also, it works on Nintendo Switch! Tested on Switch firmware 15.0.1 with standard Switch. With the controller turned off and the Switch turned on and docked, connect the controller to the dock with a USB-A to USB-C cable. The controller defaults to Switch mode when powering on. It shows up as a Switch Pro controller, if you have USB Pro Controller support enabled on the Switch. And then you can disconnect the USB, and the controller will stay connected over bluetooth. The only thing is the ABXY buttons are in Xbox layout, not Switch layout, so you just have to make a custom button mapping on the Switch, easily done.It does open wide enough to fit a Switch inside, it could work in a pinch but it's not held very solidly, it's more handy as an extra Switch controller if needed for a friend.It does work with the iPhone 12/13 Mini, also OK for iPhone 5/SE 1 size, supports a device that small, case or no case, although aesthetically not ideal as it's taller than those mini phones.It does not open wide enough to fit an iPad Mini 6 or older. Physically it's not the ideal candidate for hacking to fit iPad Mini but electronically it's great, fully compatible with iOS and even supporting wired connection. To stretch it out wider you'll definitely need a longer data cable and probably a longer spring.The data cable is part number 538-15166-0182 at Mouser Electronics, plenty in stock, I can confirm it works.The spring is a very thin strip of metal wound into a tight coil, which can become detached if the controller is pulled too wide, and also I managed to put all kinds of bends in my spring while opening everything up, so now it doesn't recoil properly. The spring is not mandatory for it to work, but it obviously keeps the controllers clamped against the device in between. Could be replaced with a longer coil spring of the same type, or rubber bands etc, you'd have to get creative. For iPad Mini use maybe could combine controller with a magnetic case for a more fixed mount setup.Also it's pretty easy to open up, just standard Phillips head screws and prying the shell open with a plastic pick or old credit card.As far as the quality of the buttons, sticks etc I'm no connoisseur, it doesn't feel quite as nice as Sony or Nintendo controller but it does the job. Only used a little bit so far and no big problems. Shoulder buttons are simple push buttons nothing fancy. Back buttons have no effect if you don't program them, and I haven't tried to program them yet.The generic box and controller are labeled as model BSP-D3, which Google says is a design that's been around for a bit, I'm guessing this particular one has pretty new firmware. Nothing says "Megadream" on it, typical budget Chinese product sold under many names. I got the grey version with Zelda-like graphics and it's close to PS1 or SNES grey, a little darker.
