Definitely an upgrade from the original PS4 controller.

For PS4 Compatible Bluetooth wireless controller

Ok I've had these controllers for about a month or so now. I've used them and compared them to the original PS4 controllers.
Observations:
- They are not quite as heavy as the original, but that's barely noticeable.
- I like that I can pair these via bluetooth with just about anything, but then again, I haven't tried this with the original. It was weird pairing it with my phone....not sure why I'd do that but that was a bit of fun.
- The battery life seems to be good. It's hard to compare if you don't have a new controller of each type.
- The joysticks. They seems a lot more solid. Again, maybe because they're new. I don't know.
- exactly the same enclosure and ruggedness as the original.
- Sometimes you have to press the PS button again after powering the PS4 on with the controller to log in. I don't mind this.
- Less than half the cost of the original Sony controller
- Not much in the way of documentation but not much is required. The only think you need to learn is how to pair it.

So, worst case, it's the same controller as you had before. There is no significant difference or advantage that I can see. I was hopeful but kind of expecting some sort of disappointment. I was not expecting it to be as good as the original. The biggest difference is that it's half the cost.

I recommend these to anyone looking for a new PS4 controller....or wireless bluetooth controller for the PC or other console.

Great retro toy

For uMSX Pro Rev.3.80 - 1ChipMSX Clone

If you feel nostalgic about MSX, this is an excellent addition to your retro collection. The real MSX-es are rather expensive these days, and there is such a variety, having just one with a good hardware emulation is a good choice. This version of uMSX covers all versions of the MSX standard and looks like it was designed with passion. You could have it with all the necessary additions - keyboard, joysticks, HDMI adapter, so that you can just plug and play. The DIY appearance and the manufacturing quality of the case and peripherals does not come close to the 1980-s era of superb industrial design, but for the price you pay is well worth it. The author is amazingly responsive and meets your requirements every time. Thank you, Denjhang.

Good version of this product

For SD Mapper V2 - MSX SD Card & Memory Mapper 512k

Several sellers make versions of this product. This one is good quality for a good price - would recommend. Thanks!

Missing a screw, and shipping was messed up.

For uMSX Pro Rev.3.80 - 1ChipMSX Clone

So first the annoyances.

I paid for FedEx shipping, which the seller changed to China Post (he said that he was going to ship it EMS, which appears to not have happened), so I'm out $16 on the FedEx shipping premium. Not terrible, but annoying. I first got a bad tracking number for FedEx before I figured out what was going on. The good news is that the seller appears to have removed the FedEx shipping option. Good. It ended up showing up a day late for PhreakNIC, but that still gave me a day to show it off (but no time to try it out).

The board itself had a screw loose when I opened the package (and either lost another one somewhere, or it wasn't included). I've got plenty of these type of screws at home so no big deal. But I was lucky that it fell out of the case and didn't stay in the case before I had powered it up. And personally I would use normal steel screws, stainless steel screws won't stick to a magnet, and I have clumsy fingers... :)

Now the good things:

It is a very nice looking board, which is well laid out. Very pretty indeed! Excellent documentation, including the source code and the design files! That is fantastic!

The seller did get back to me on the shipping issue very quickly. The board was very well protected in the box (which got beat up a bit on the way over). So no problems with the packaging.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the product and outside of the shipping issue, the service as well. I would not hesitate to buy from this seller again.


Thanks!

😅FedEx once cost me $500, so I never use it again. If I don't use China Post (EMS system) and use something like UPS, DPD, DHL, the shipping cost will be doubled (and not much faster). The acrylic shell of uMSX is indeed a bit fragile, I am designing a 3D printed version. 😄Things like the screw disappearing often happen to me, luckily you fixed it yourself. As for the extra $15, I will give you a discount code next time.

Excellent Video Card for Retro PC build

For ISA Super VGA - Trident TVGA9000i

Card is amazing and works well in my Micro 8088 build - shipping cost is high though. I also wish it had come with a mounting bracket but that is available from Mouser

Much better image quality than vintage cards

For ISA Super VGA - Trident TVGA9000i

Using the Super VGA card in my Xi 8088 PC, visual quality is much better than any vintage VGA card I tried, like night and day. Very happy with it!

Nice product - Love to play the old MSX stuff again

For uMSX Pro Rev.3.80 - 1ChipMSX Clone

The machine itself works well. Some of the ports seem to be a bit weak, but it works for now. I like the extra controllers, but original joysticks work better (of course). The package comes with a lot of game pre-installed on the sd card and works out of the box. You can add games yourself with using a PC with card reader.

Documentation is ok, but a bit thin. And you really need to dig into or already know how an MSX works if you want to do some extra stuff. Standard MSX documentation you need to find yourself.

Communication with the seller is fast and friendly. Shipping was ok, a little over 3 weeks from ordering to receiving. Items were packaged well.

Great playback from these add-on (MegaMOD) boards!

For MegaMod for MegaGRRL Desktop

Great playback from these add-on (MegaMOD) boards and I am happy to support the development of these by purchasing them. Highly responsive, Denjhang is active in developing the majority of the MegaMOD boards he sells and also places importance on their availability to purchase.

Best MSX pack for the price

For uMSX Pro Rev.3.80 - 1ChipMSX Clone

It's a great package at a very reasonable price, practically including everything an MSX enthusiast (or, as in my case, someone interested in the platform) could want or need.

I encountered only one inconvenience, which I reported to the seller and I assume will be solved for future customers: although the case seems to be of good quality, the slots for the cartridges should be a few millimeters wider. I couldn't insert cartridges with the case cover on, I had to unscrew it and take it out. I plan to use a dremel to slightly enlarge the size of the slots, I hope I don't ruin it aesthetically.

The seller responded quickly to all my questions and was very patient, which I appreciate, but it would be convenient, both for him and his clients, if the package includes some type of introductory documentation in English, summarizing the use of each functionality, accompanied of links where you can find more information.

Absolutely wonderful, niche product!

For uMSX Pro Rev.3.80 - 1ChipMSX Clone

I absolutely love this thing. It looks so professionally done but its very evident the creator had heart and a physical hand in putting it together.
I am no MSX enthusiast, but I really want to be one, especially for development on Symbos, which this device supports extremely well.

Seller is very timely on questions and messages, the only thing I'd say for the seller to consider is making a wiki of some sort for this ecosystem. All the information is out there, its just a bit of a hunt to find it on all his store pages!
