Look prettiest cool but maybe to expense, detachable two controllers with batteries.
Looking forward to see the performance of this padpad.
You can check the video in armdevices.net,charbax

I was reading and searching for the true performance of the A80 SOC,reading forums for Onda device's base on A80 allwinner.
I still believe that the A80 its a powerful SOC,some peoples already have custom ROM and kernel,working pretty smooth, but some problems like heat or bad heatsink,WiFi issues, like always hardware and software related, the good think is that the A80 has more than 9 month in developed, the A80 boxes still issue too,but can we do more. ??.The problems allwinner, imagination technology and the OEM but mostly allwinner. If we can get the A80 running at 2,0 GHz max, 2g of RAM,increase memory bandwidth, 64 storage or more,good battery life,the latest WiFi 2x2 mimo A/C and definitely good controllers, that will be ideal,and good and decent price,  KEEP DREAMING.
They said is a prototype is they can put the other feature that AIKUN is offering that my worth the price.
The idea for the controllers  with good battery and magnetic, no bad, its a extra device to take care I mean 3 pieces of hardware to handle, maybe they put some kind of magnetic field or shield to have together the 2 controller when is not in use,and we don't know if is ergonomic design.

Those controllers dont seem like "actual working" controllers and are just for show since they are split without any docking.

He said they will 2.4ghz (bluetooth i think) hence they cant simply connect to the device they need something that will connect the left controller to the right controller. It would be strange if they both use separate Bluetooth signals and might have loads of compatibility issues. We will need to see the working prototype.

He said the controllers would be magnetic so perhaps they wont be connected to each other as he said there is a battery in each side of the controller

Incredibly big and controls don't seem good to me. Also, allwinner is buggy as hell, even more than Rockchip or Amlogic.

That looks terribly uncomfortable to hold. And how are you supposed to to a run & jump in Mario with those face 'buttons'?

the same way you do on any other gamepad with run and jump buttons adjacent to each other.  If it was A+Y i could see the problem, but those cross button combos dont appear very often in gamepad games because of how unrealistic it is to hit them.  Its really not a huge deal, though you may not be able to button mash with furious abandon on this pad because of it.

While its gamepad design is horrible, especially regarding the d-pad and face buttons, and (I'm guessing, from the look of its back side) ergonomics, I really like some of its features.
Its detachable controller design is simply ingenious. If that controller would've been better designed, it could've competed against products like the GPD Q9 and G7.
Its rotating camera is simply an ingenious cost-cutting measure. Instead of having 2 lower quality cameras, they can have only one that's really good.

It shows a lot of innovation, but it fails in part due to bad gamepad design and high costs - they've simply crammed too much technology in there. I mean, stereoscopic 3D? Don't mind that actual HD 3D movies can barely fit on a FAT32 device, they're just not that common for the regular consumer. And in gaming, especially low-end gaming, it's more obtrusive than immersive (case in point - 3DS).

So, yeah. Not going to buy one, but I hope that the tricks they've employed will be used by others, or maybe they'll release a more grounded, cheaper version of it.
