In addition to the mainstream mechanical keyboard and gaming mouse, game headsets and gamepads are also included in the product line. What this brings to everyone is the evaluation of this Pennefather V600 vibration game controller.
On the front there is a five-color illustration of the product, the LOGO of Pyramid, and the model V600 of this handle.
The back is also a top view with a strong sense of technology. Below are the four selling points of the product:

Side and bottom are some basic information
The V600 uses a flip-over packaging design to visualize the color of the handle. Page turning is a black top view, and the following repeatedly highlights the four selling points mentioned on the back.
The author got a yellow section and a nice name called Lamborghini Yellow. The remaining four colors are Porsche Black, Maserati White, Ferrari Red and Aston Martin Blue. Except that black is a solid color, everything else is a mix of styles.
The accessories for the V600 have manuals, but the location of the instructions is hidden and hidden inside the white triangular cardboard inside the package. It's not easy to find out if you 're not careful .

Pennefather V600 game handles use a mix of colors, the handle cover is highlighted mirror material, and the bottom case is fine matte. In terms of appearance and the XBOX360 handle is very similar, the entire layout of the key is basically the same.
Behind the V600 is a fine matte, feel very good. There is a large-sized non-slip rubber pad on the left and right sides, which can achieve a 1:1 fit of the palm, and a layer of matte texture on the pad to further enhance the effect of anti-slip effect. The back finger groove corresponds to the middle finger, ring finger, and thumb finger, which makes the grip more fit to the fingers and brings an excellent gripping experience.
The two joysticks of the handle are asymmetrically designed with a concave design. The material is made of a soft skin material with a non-slip, non-slip texture around it.
The arrow keys are ordinary cross keys. The surface is frosted and there is a certain increase in non-slip. Ordinary cross-key positioning operation will be more accurate. However, for some fighting games, it is easy to get a headache. In addition, my personal feeling is a little bit hard and may be related to my relatively small force.
The handle ABXY uses two-tone keys, and the inner layer is YXAB. The outer layer is a transparent resin cover. The visual effect is better and there is no need to worry about character wear. Two-color keys are full of three-dimensional, but also full of crystal clear sense.
The VPRO LOGO key in the middle of the handle is made of a matte surface metal material, with a high-gloss border around it, which is quite exquisite. This button is an indicator light, and it is also the switch key for the digital/analog mode of the joystick. The X/D/A mode switch button is just below the indicator light. The LOGO is the BACK and START buttons; the lower left and the right buttons are the TUR button and the VIB button.
The handle has traditional linear LT and RT buttons, and the linear buttons have better throttle and braking experience for controlling racing games.
Pennefather V600 game controller standard 2 meters wire, USB interface gold plated, and a shield ring and cable management. And comes with a USB protective cover.
Connection and drive
The V 600 is connected to the computer without the need for driving, plug and play. In the game, you do not need to set buttons to recognize the corresponding buttons. The rocker setting can be seen inside the control panel. You can test whether the keys on the handle work properly.
V600 game controller three-mode three-core, can be used in multiple platforms, through the handle on the X / D / A key to achieve three modes of a key switch. Smart devices on the PC platform, PS3 platform, and Android 4.0 system version. Switching between joystick modes is done through the central VPRO shortcut key. The switching process indicator blinks and the mode switch responsivity is fast. According to the blue LED lights around the button, it can reflect the current mode of the handle in real time.
Game experience
The author installed a grape game hall on the millet TV at home, and can be used directly after the handle is inserted. Then download a few old red and white machine games for a demo. Although it seems that V600 is overkill, but full of memories, and instantly returned to childhood when watching the next brother to play video games.
Then I found an arcade game that was very popular in the past. I wouldn't play. It was purely for experiencing the difference between different types of games used by V600. If the big move can be as good as a LOL key, it's easy to get a thumbs-up, and it's not a big move. I admit, I am a pit cargo. . .
Alloy warheads, burst mode can not continuously press the launch button, or a lot easier. Relying on the indefinite life style of play, customs clearance is only a matter of time. If there is more than one handle, two people play together, it should be a lot of fun.
Need for Speed ​​18. The operating experience of the linear button's throttle and reversing feels very good, far from being comparable to keyboard operation. However, my level is very bad. Basically, I always bump into the past, what drifts and flicks do not have half a centroin relationship with me. In the process of constantly crashing and running off the road, the left and right vibration motors of the handle gave me a more in-depth novelty experience for the V600. The original gamepad is so playable!
to sum up
advantage:
- Ergonomic simulation 360 handle design, feel comfortable;
- X/D/A multi-mode switching is convenient, plug and play is easy to use;
- Multi-level vibration feedback brings a richer gaming experience.
insufficient:
- The arrow keys are slightly harder, and they are a bit tired when they are a little longer .
In general, Pennefather V600 vibrating gamepads perform well in terms of feel and performance. Three-mode switching is convenient and the supported platforms are diversified. The real one is a multi-purpose machine. For the 99 yuan price, cost-effective, it should be the most accurate definition of it.
