Pretty nice for an inexpensive stickless pad
There are a lot of things I love about this pad and a couple things I wish were improved from a build quality perspective. For reference I'm pretty much only using this on PC with fighters. By default it is on xinput when plugged into PC. Right out of the box it works. It's pretty thin, light, and overall really comfortable to use. Mapping/RGB can be done using the web UI although I didn't mess too much with that, I just wanted a pad that works. And this does. The feel of the main buttons on this is superb. Honestly one of the best feeling button pushes I've ever felt in a stickless pad. They slap, literally. The lighting works well if you're into that with the clear plates sandwiched between the top and bottom. It's very comfortable to use on your lap or on a desk. It also comes with a nice USB cable. The board is constructed using a top and bottom plate, two clear inner plates, and a PCB sandwiched in between. Screws can be accessed on the bottom of the board using hex bits. I like seeing hex bits and not the dreaded philips bits. Some things I wish to see improved - the OLED screen, while nice, isn't flush with the case. I'm not sure if it is using an adhesive cover or what but it looks unprofessional and I somewhat fear the ridge catching on something and tearing off. The pad comes with some 3M adhesive feet. I attached those and I get wobble on the board when on a table. This is very frustrating. I tried fixing it thinking the screws may need adjustments to press the plates tighter but that did not work. I feel like maybe a plate is warped. This is probably the biggest issue I see here, although not an issue if you play in your lap. The small buttons for options/start/select/etc are wobbly and don't feel good to press at all. That's all I have to complain about and for the budget price I feel like I can let some of that slide by. Overall it's a great deal for a stickless with switches that feel really good.
