Before I begin I know what you are thinking. Yes, you are not alone this controller has an uncanny resemblance to the Xbox 360 controller something I consider to be probably the best controller ever produced for gamers at this point in time. So many raging memories from games Cod 4 and Modern Warfare 2. It’s even greater than the sequel Xbox 1 controller as that one is a little too bulky. The resemblance is not just visual it feels similar from the D-Pad to the joysticks it all feels very similar which is something many third party controller seem to lack. Also, even the color of the YXBA and buttons are the same it’s crazy and I love it for that.

What really separates this thing from the Xbox 360 controllers is the connection. While that controller comes in wired and true wireless this comes with wired and you must plug into your device of choice. I know this sounds annoying however I don’t mind as many Bluetooth controllers break down over time as the technology is simply imperfect. Bluetooth 4.0 is utter garbage I don’t what was accomplished in 4 generations but simply not enough has been done in my book. For example, my Gamesir G3 controller discounts frequently to the point of no return. It’s a paperweight which is why I’m thankful to get this. Ther is a blue button that lights up when you connect to your device of choice which is nice so now you know if you are connected or not. The light is blue and usually, has 2 bars lit up.

If you’re wondering what buttons are present on this thing. You can find everything you would find on a normal 360 controller from YXBASTARTDPADJOYSTICK1AND2LBLTRTRB HOMEBUTTON and even a turbo button for certain games.The 10m distance is fine and is accurate to the product. I tested this product using Muphen emulator and Dolphin emulator and both worked great with super smash bros melee once controller mapping was successful. Be aware you may be confused with some of the options. Go online and find presents that have your controller filled out that can save some time. Especially with Wii emulation when you have to track actual movements. It’s a mess for games like super Mario galaxy

Overall this is the best wired game controller I own due to it’s uncanny resemblance to the 360 controller and it’s not exactly a bad thing. It was a pinnacle of innovation for it’s time nothing could beat it so why not join it?

The Tictid AX9 MAX android TV Box is an interesting little box for sure. It provides all the bells and whistles that Android TV provides but at a cheaper cost than most others. However, this tradeoff is not without its faults and some concessions were made to ensure reasonable profit could be obtained. The design, however, is not one aspect that suffered. It’s clean, smooth and light weight. All aspects you would expect from your average $80-$120 boxes from competitors alike. The setup process is simple just type in the date and time followed by your wifi and that’s it. You don’t even need a Google account, however, I do recommend it or the play store and chrome will become nothing more than an empty shell. Surprisingly this device knew my wifi password without me ever typing it in. I have never heard of such a feature and I don’t know if I subconsciously typed it in but I don’t believe so. The UI is fine nothing special its a bit laggy and navigation with the vertical remote provided is a little complicated. How are you expected to type anything using this thing? Which is why I recommend getting a Bluetooth keypad like device which I have reviewed on this site before. The box was well packaged, had a nice logo, and contained the plugin and play necessities. Aka HDMI Cable, Power Cable, Remote, and instructions. So far so good only minor concessions were taken but there are a few more to remind you of.

From the software side, the issues do become a little more glaring. The CPU used within this device is quite weak the geekbench score of 503 single core was so low that even the lowest device on there was not low enough to compare to this item. That item was a galaxy s5 which was released 3 years ago. The same goes with the multicore but that’s not the worst part. When trying to watch youtube videos or play android apps the concessions become very apparent. Videos over 480p will keep buffering indefinitely until the device falls into sleep mode if you choose to lower the resolution. Most android apps using any sort of GPU power runs very poorly and is not recommended for usage. Overall while concessions have been made it’s nothing out of the ordinary considering the price tag. It’s a glorified smart TV box with an Android skin. The price, however, makes that acceptable but nothing more.

The smartphone industry is rapidly evolving before our very eyes. The rules are changing soon the boundaries between the all mighty
flagships and budget smartphones will cease to exist. You are getting an incredible value with the Wogiz Unlocked Quad Core 8GB ROM smartphone. At this time it costs around 66 dollars yet the compromise between this and flagship like the Samsung galaxy s7 and the LG g5 are not too substantial. That metal design this phone has is very nice especially if you pick a color like gold or silver to go with the phone over generic black. Anyway the galaxy and the LG phones, of course, have higher pixels, better processor, and more ram but is it really worth 10 times the price hopefully we can find out.

Unboxing
This aspect was very nice. Besides the phone which is expected you have your universal USB cable. I call it universal as their’s
no proprietary feedback mechanisms that would prevent you from using this for any device that accepts micro USB cables. You have a free USB adapter that goes along with the cable which is awesome as you don’t have to use your own it’s a very nice gesture for sure. You get a free screen
protector which is a very nice feature to have. Smartphones will accumulate a lot of scratches during usage as well as the times where
it inevitably falls down. Having this reduces the chances of glass cracking which practically turns your phone into a paperweight.
You do get a user manual which I had no interest in as I’m against them, to begin with lol. Finally and most surprising you can free earphones. Earphones of any quality are not cheap to produce so it’s nice to get decent sounding audio earphones coming naively with this product.

Ui
The screen and interface are overall fairly responsive. Scrolling between pages on the home screen is easy and can be done with a vareity of sensitivity without any confusion. You do have some stock apps which can be hibernated with greenify or removed.
Firstly FM radio this is a huge bonus. You don’t need wifi or data to use this all you need is a headphone jack which are widely available
You will get between 20-30 channels depending on your location. Next is sounder recorder now you can record your voice without
using the camera which can save on data usage/ can be used for other projects more easily. Next you have what’s app I guess they planned not
everyone would have data so they made it even easier to text without data. Finally a stock email app is present I would personally use an app
called blue mail so I have no need for this but it still works for sure. You have a couple of stock widgets to go over. Google search panel
for searching google, clock for obviously telling time, weather which saves the city you input and finally shortcuts to commands like
wifi and bluetooth turn off and on, Gps and screen brightness. Instead of accessing settings one click can be used. Accessing apps like
google play and the browser also load fast. This Ui’s foundation is secure and fast running android lollypop 5.1 so overall it’s clean and effective

Benchmarks
Obviously when buying budget phones on paper specs usually is a sacrifice you have to make for so many benefits. I first tired Vellamo Metal
benchmarks this will tell me alot about it’s single core performance which is usually for stuff besides gaming and 3d applications. After
1-2 minutes the results were as following. 655 this number has no context in comparison to other products so let’s test this with others
It’s stronger then the galaxy nexus 458 but less then Meizu MX4 at 993 so yea their you go. Next geekbench 3 a more well known benchmark
is next after waiting a few minutes the results came out as the following. The Multi core performance ranks around 1111 which is slightly
worse then the Motorola moto g’s 1116 score and alot better then the Samsung Galaxy Nexus’s 621 score. Now for single core the 344 benchmark
was once again higher then the Samsung galaxy nexus that had 338 but weaker then then the galaxy s3 at 426. But overall these budget phones
had to cut corners some where and here is where. To be honest unless you are gaming you won’t notice the difference anyway. This phone
is optimized well

Camera
The phone comes with a 2MP front facing camera used for selfies. To be honest it’s not bad at all surprisingly. My room does
not have good lighting I would show you my face but I don’t exactly want everyone to see it so just take my word. The amount
of noose was reduced and it’s good enough to satisfy selfie needs. The 8MP rear facing camera is also Ok not great but considering the price of the phone and the fact I have reviewed cameras which only take pictures look worse then this thing and they costed more then the price of this phone I don’t have to much to complain about. This won’t replace a DSR or flagship but it’s passable. It’s macro mode which focuses on finite details like small text and texture is actually above average though for these phones.

Root
Now it’s time to discuss root. The companies advises you not to do so as you risk getting viruses on your new device
and you instantly void any limited warranty you may have. But you know what this is a budget smartphone and I know for
people that’s a huge selling feature. So I took all the risk for you and luckly for all of us this phone can indeed be
rooted pretty easily. You could download mtk droid tools and permit usb debugging etc or you could do it my way. Which is
much eaiser just downlod kingo root and install the apk and run the it. Don’t worry it may get stuck at 90% for a bit
but it will eventually go through. This phone can indeed be rooted. I havin’t gone all the way with Cyangeon mod and
Clockworks and twerp and stuff but I’m sure it would probably work. I have bad history with modding. I lost two phones
a droid X and a motorola moto g to hard bricks. so I’m content with rooting at this point as my limit.

Networks
This phone is 3G compatible in the USA with some of the major carriers. You will have to avoid CDMA 4g networks like Sprint and Verizon as they both are selective regarding which phones they allow in. T-Mobile and ATaT 3G GSM networks should work with this phone. They want to beat Verizon and they are trying to do that by allowing as many phones as possible to help increase their market share as Verizon owns so many cell phone towers their’s no other way for them to increase market share at the moment. Verizon’s services are unbeatable from a quality standpoint almost like a monopoly. The amount of money necessary to build more towers beyond the existing ones are simply astronomical

Pros
– Good Macro Mode
– Quality Metal Chassy
– Responsive Ui

Cons
– Fake Out on touch ID
– Poor Rear Camera overall qualitty
– Low Benchmarks

Side Note
What does the square on the back of the phone do? Is it purely a design choice by the company? or maybe is what canceled finger print scanner I seriously ponder this question.

Overall the Smartphone Industry is going through a permanent metamorphosis. We all must adapt and not let conformity rule
our lives. Give companies like these a try some of them have diamonds in a the rough that compete or exceed major brands
like Samsung And Apple from a value standpoint atleast. The Wogiz Unlocked Quad Core Smartphone is one of many 2016 phones that proved
this theory. The smartphone industry is now more accessible then ever stop paying 700 for a new phone people
let our voices be heard we want more affordable phones. Thanks so much for reading this review any questions you have
