Cosmic Byte Equinox Quasar Wireless Gamepad with Macro Buttons, Backlit for PC

This controller is amazing it has the best features of the cosmic byte nebula and the things that were bad in nebula are much better in this one. Bumper on nebula were really bad but this contoller has amazing bumpers. Triggers were average on nebula. So much better in this one. The replaceable d-pad and 2 Marco button under the controller were our ring finger rest are amazing added features plus this has type c charging port(even ps4 and xbox one controller has this feature). It also has rubberized coating on top which reduces sweating. Only downgrade from nebula is in battery capacity. From 600 mah in nebula to 380 mah in this one. but the battery life is pretty similar. Probably because of new hardware or something. I got it for 1100inr which is cheaper than NEBULA. Would totally recommend this to everyone is looking for cheap wireless controller. This is the best you'll get. All in all a great purchase.

Good product altogether, used it for around 2 days and here are the things I found Pros: - Wireless is good for laptops (no range issue found, as there is always direct connection with nothing in between) - No collision with other wireless peripheral in 2.4 GHz like wireless mouse - Similar Button Feel and Configuration is their Nebula Wired Controller (my previous one, which wire tore after an year) Cons: - don’t expect real Xbox controller feel, there’s a reason they cost so much :) - They have included a substitute standard dpad for people who don’t want the circular one, but I was not able to find any guide on how to change them Additional Notes: - I don’t have a desktop, so I can’t say whether there is any range problem there, in laptop it works perfectly - To avoid any joystick wearing, I suggest you buy a joystick grip along with this (best follow this with any controller :) ) - I can’t say anything about macro function (the two buttons in bottom of controller) cause I was not able to properly use it in games I play (Genshin impact), but that can’t be configured as a real button as I was not able to find any driver for controller, my laptop registered it as standard Xbox controller, which doesn’t have those back button - the serial number on the back can easily wear away, so it is advised to click a picture of it as soon as you get it - bumpers RB and LB are structured like hinges so you mave have to practice a little bit If I get any problems in future, I will relay it here :)

Not even worth Rs. 500 . A faulty product altogether.

Upon deciding that I needed a controller for PC gaming, I discovered that Cosmic Byte and redgear seem to be the top players in the Indian market. For Redgear, there was no clear product catalogue which was easily available online. Cosmic Byte was slightly better, however they didn't include the newer models on their site as those were out of stock, and various online retailers didn't include the older models, so it was hard getting a clear picture. My conclusion is that, at the time of writing this review, cosmic byte offers 3 wireless PC controllers under 3000 INR: the nebula, the Callisto wireless, and this, the Equinox quasar. Upon seeing multiple YouTube reviews and reading the specs, I chose this one, as it seemed the newest, especially considering it charges via a Type-C cable. The wireless receiver for this is also smaller than the other 2. Getting to the experience, amazon of course delivered as per the expected date. The controller DOES NOT have anti-slip rubberized grip as opposed to others, so the hands to tend to slip after long sessions The analog sticks and buttons feel reasonably close to the Xbox 360 controller, in terms of feel. I wouldn't call them a premium finish, but definitely worth the cost. The recentering effect on the sticks Is quite aggressive. LB and RB also give a good clicky feel. Coming to the LT and RT triggers, those were underwhelming. When I tracked it on my PC, they were functioning in a binary fashion, there was no gradient if you squeezed the trigger less. This is major problem in racing games wherein one may wish to accelerate or brake only slightly. Another reason why I went for this controller is due to the pro buttons on the underside, aka the macro buttons. However, my knowledge of them was incomplete as I expected them to function as additional buttons i could bind to new functions. This is NOT THE CASE. The underside buttons can only be mapped as any of the pre-exisiting buttons, hence you can only use them to do things you could already do, maybe a bit faster. They are not percieved by the PC as additional buttons. The Xinput doesn't get detected with all games, hence sometimes the vibration is not supported. But when the vibration works, it is satisfactory. All in all, for under 2000 INR this controller is a decent buy, but it may be worth seeing the others in the range for the rubberized grips, and if they have unique buttons + reliable vibration

So I was looking for gamepads and all I found was cosmic byte and red gear. I haven't touched red gear products but I did bought cosmic byte nebula gamepad from flipkart and I it was fine but the unit I recieved was not good so I got a replacement it was even worse so I returned it. I know this product existed when I bought nebula but this was costly back then (now reduced) and it had very few reviews so didn't considered this . But as I didn't wanted to buy red gear and experienced the hassel of charging it with micro usb connector and big receiver that comes in way of everything I didn't wanted to buy nebula too. And I bought this from Amazon because it has type c charging and small receiver. The product arrived It was good but b and y buttons wasn't working while charging while every other button works so I thought it was defective and I got a replacement which was even worse it was a used one and the box had hair in it .I returned this too. And ordered it from official cosmic byte website , it was great and new product was sent , no problem . I am writing this review just to say all of you that *You* *actually* *get* *2dongles* one small and one large ( for better range) this was not mentioned on box or description don't know why cosmic byte did this. I didn't know that this controller comes with 2 dongles because the both controllers I got from Amazon only had 1 dongle small one. And I highly doubt either the previous customers of my controller might have not returned large receiver or the seller might have removed it . In either case you will loose it if you buy from here . The seller I purchased from is appario. Better buy from another seller or buy from official website since price is also less there. Product is great and excellent. And you can use the macro buttons too. you just have to map them by holding turbo button (detailed procedure in manual) It worked for me.

Everything is premium apart from the left/right Triggers..those are worst. Too much of responsiveness and deadZone and it jumps from 0 to 1 rapidly.

Controller is good..only con is its range, its range is very less.. its less than 2 feet. And no joystick drift and for the price its good.. and i actually threw it on the ground and it broked open and after a few days i tried to fix it and it worked lol.. the triggers came out and the vibration motor came out but still when i fixed it, it worked.. good as new... I highly recommend this and if u need range dont buy this .. it has very less range.. thats the only con..

At the time of purchase there were only two options available for wireless controller cosmic byte Callisto and Equinox Quasar but it has some negative review and only 3 reviews but I tried my luck as there was option to return back .so after using it for more than 2 weeks I can safely say this controller is good RT nd Lt button is too much sensitive so for racing game users that can be problem but as I play FIFA mostly with joystick for me it's not a problem.so for the price it's look and finish is more than good .but I will also want you to know the range of the controller is very low so put the dongle in front panel and use joystick from as close as possible as it gets disconnected if you don't stay close to the dongle. So keep that in mind
