  • Makes complicated games on iOS a joy to play, Tidy design, Hundreds of titles already supported
  • It is rather diddy, No OS X game controller support, Bluetooth 2.1 is not as power efficient as BLE
  • At £69.70, the Stratus isn't cheap, but it's worth it – it really changes gaming on iOS. That's because it makes the iPad or iPhone a true console and enables easy control of games that don't necessarily translate well to a touchscreen. The Stratus is jus...

  • Great buttons overall, Lag free mobile gaming
  • High price, Small for larger hands
  • Throw on the cover onto the front before traveling The SteelSeries Stratus feels like a controller that's just right. It's small and light enough to carry, yet it's still beefy for some more serious mobile gaming. We liked basically everything on the con...

  • Rather pricey, May not support the games you want to play with

  • El SteelSeries Stratus reúne una gran cantidad de botones en un espacio pequeño y se conecta vía Bluetooth a las versiones recientes del iPad, iPhone y iPod Touch
  • Es demasiado caro y aún hay muy pocos juegos compatibles con controles iOS, a pesar que siguen en aumento
  • El SteelSeries Stratus es control para iOS que ofrece las mejores sensaciones en las manos y el que es más versátil, pero tiene un precio alto para ser un accesorio....

  • Abstract:  Une manette pour iDevice (iPhone, iPad, Ipod Touch) dans un format de poche pour joueur “mobile”.En préambule il convient de savoir que Steelseries, bien connu dans le monde des accessoires comme avec ceux à l'effigie des SIMS 4 ( concours ici ) n'en est ...

  • La Stratus de SteelSeries est une bonne manette de jeu, avant tout pensée pour les iPad, puisque n'incluant pas de protection iPhone, mais une très bonne manette quand même. Les commandes sont bien situées et l'autonomie au rendez-vous. En réalité le s...

  • Très compacte, facile à transporter, Bonnes finitions, Sticks analogiques très précis, Plus de 150 jeux pris en charge, Autonomie plus que correcte
  • Incompatible avec les iPad 1/2/3, Utilisation bien plus pertinente avec un iPad qu'avec un iPhone ou un iPod Touch, Un coup à prendre pour les gâchettes
  • Sans doute le meilleur produit du type actuellement sur la marché, cette Stratus sait combiner compacité, construction sérieuse, bonne ergonomie et plaisir de jeu quasi sans failles. Dommage que la manette se destine, par son allure et l'absence d'accesso...

  • Améliore grandement la jouabilité, Commandes précises, Bonne ergonomie
  • Pas assez de jeux compatibles
  • L'iPad est devenu une bonne console de jeu, n'en déplaise aux puristes du gaming. Performances graphiques suffisantes, affichage magnifique et jeux de plus en plus sophistiqués, il n'y a que l'interface tactile qui pose problème dans de nombreux titres. S...

  • Abstract:  Auf der Packung werden gut lesbar iPhone 5, 5c, 5s, iPad Mini, iPad Mini mit Retina, iPad 4. Generation, iPad Air oder iPad Touch vorausgesetzt. Schaut man in die schmucke Hülle hinein, freut einen neben dem attraktiven Miniatur-Formfaktor vor allem das v...
