My Tronsmart Mars G01 REVIEW

[blinkone]

Hello,

Got my controller the other day and was testing it out. I was playing some ROM games and noticed lag. I'm not playing resource intensive games either. For example, super mario 3, probably .25 second of a lag. I have a tronsmart s89-h device. Any suggestions? I have tried beach buggy blitz just to test out an android game, seems to be ok, but not sure how its suppose to react to the controller since this is the only time i have played it.

thanks in advance!

Hi there I have not played any rom games so I cant help you there,iv not rely noticed any big problem lag wile playin android games, every now and then I may get a split second or lag but I just put that down to signal loss from the controller to the receiver but that don't happen often.

What rom emulator are you using & what roms (links please) & will test for you.

Try doing a triple jump.

just tried them, if I press the jump 3 times very fast your right it don't work but if I press jump 3 times a little slower it works fine I guess it will take some getting used to

when you press jump 3 times a little slower, does it work fine 100% of the time? when I try that, it will work 30% of the time. in my eyes, this shouldnt happen. and i dont know if it's the device, controller, or what? It is noticeably different for me. Especially in fast pace games. like tony hawk pro skater for Playstation. cant land your tricks because its trying to catch up on your keying.

could I have something interfering with it? another 2.4 ghz accessory perhaps?

I would say it works about 95% of the time but if I increase the speed i press it dont work,yes you could have something interfering with it ie wireless mouse keybored or even system wifi try & rule them out if you can

Alright, I played some roms on my laptop with the mars g01 and everything is flawless. what in the world is going on? very very noticeable difference. Would you mind doing the same thing just to make sue we're on the same page? try super Mario 3 again.

would really appreciate it, thanks!

When using android device, are you using A mode on the controller or X. Do you have any suggestions?

I've owned mine for about two or three months. I bought it specifically for playing old games on emulators on the android platform. It feels a little light. Battery life is great all buttons except for one are fine. The D pad is absolutely hideous! It's very difficult to use because if you wiggle or simply press any of the four buttons it has a very high chance of triggering more than one D Pad button at once. For instance I might have tapped or pressed "up" and it will and the controller responds by going "up" and "left" or "right". Games like Tetris are next to impossible or any other game that requires precision with the D pad. I purchased it from geekbuying, but it's a design flaw that should be corrected through Tronsmart. If you're not looking to use the D pad the Tronsmart Mars G01 will work great for you.

I've recently received the parcell with my Tronsmart G01, got it at Geekbuying, too.

If anyone interested, I wrote a big review for this device <here, where I tested it's compatibility with PC as well as Android. I tried to make it very detailed, described how it works in different modes and so on.
The only point is that the review is in Russian as my previous one of iPega PG9700, but you are free to google-translate it
Here's a small video presentation which I and my friend created for the review.

I've also got a coupon to share with my friends and forums members: ZNULEIXR (saves you $5, valid through October 9)

Ok. This is really pissing me off. How can this controller be the best of it lags biiiiiig time on these emulators. Hoe does no one else see this? I'm wondering if I got a bad controller, but it works flawless if hooked up to PC.
