Not much to be said about the F310, it's an endlessly serviceable, reasonably durable, quite comfortable controller. Face buttons, start/select, and bumpers are excellent, d-pad is good, stick position is a matter of taste but they're good sticks, and the triggers... are a matter of taste. Good travel and action but slightly sharp edges. The corded design is preferred to save on batteries and input latency, and the cable is... long enough for desk use, but buy a USB extender for TV use. It's a durable pad; I bought this to replace my last F310, age 8. A word on the re-certified condition; despite claiming previous ownership, the controller is crisp like it's new, the buttons are all working great and it has not a scuff. If yours does run into wear and tear as my old one did, seven screws make it easy to take down. My one non-complaint is the lack of rumble, it's not too important to me, but it would be really nice if they knocked the F510 out of existence and incorporated rumble into the F310 without much of a price raise, then it'd be the definitive 360 alternative. For $23 CAD it's a great buy. Read full review

I have the Logitech precision game pad as well and really liked it, so I decided to get the dual action because it's basically the same design but with dual analog (and the analog sticks also count as two extra buttons, just like the playstation controllers). I am not sure if it's just the particular unit that I received but it feels like there is noticeable latency compared to the old precision game pad. The lack of response makes the controller useless to me b/c I play a lot of classic platformer and shooter games on emulator, and I am just not getting the performance I need from the controller. I then got the newer Logetich F310 and that one works a lot better. I wish the Dual action worked better though because I like the sturdy feel of the shoulder buttons. For those considering a Logitech controller, I would stick to the old precision gamepad for games that don't need analog controls and use the F310 for modern games.Read full review

The F310 is not best controller out there, but it's a good one with it's quirks. I wanted a controller that can I can use on the PC and the PS3, without coughing up a lot of money, and this is what I found. I going to take about the bad parts first cause the good outweigh the bad. The d-pad is half ass, better than Xbox 360's bullshit d-pad, but not great; Feels loose. The triggers are responsive, but are rather small; Wish they can be bigger. Last, the colored buttons are also responsive, but feel flat. I basically have to reach for them. Now on to the good parts. Thumbsticks are great, feel like the PS3 thumbsticks. The grip is big and ergonomic, feels like the best of the PS3 and Xbox 360 controllers. Start, back or select, and mode all work. What mode does is switch the controls from the left thumbstick to the d-pad, but there is no need to do that as the d-pad is inferior to the thumbstick anyways. There is a switch on the back that has X on the left and D on the right; X is for PC, and D is for PS3 and Xbox 360, Wii doesn't work. I have never used the button in the middle, nor got it to work. I pressed it on a PS3, and it did nothing. The cord on this is longer than the standard PS3 cord, so don't worry about pulling on the wire or repositioning your couch. It also has no rumble or dualshock feature, but there is a controller that Logitech made called the F510, almost the same as this controller, but has dual rumble features. All in all, this is a nice controller, but not one to be proud of.Read full review
The gist: This controller is very similar to a Playstation controller, and that's not a bad thing. Lacks a rumble feature, but the feature-rich (albeit slightly clunky) Logitech Profiler utility gives this controller great accessibility, functionality and enables the creation and usage of macro multiple-button-press commands. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ The install: Works great, drivers were installed automatically by Windows (7, in my case) so install was a snap. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ The review: Overall, this is a good basic-but solid and affordable (I paid $16 for mine)-controller. What it lacks in extra hardware features is more than made up for with the Logitech Profiler software utility. The sensitivity is good, a lot of games use this controller natively, and it just plain works like you'd expect a Playstation controller to-albeit, with no vibration/rumble/haptic feedback feature. In those rare instances when a game doesn't natively support this controller, Logitech has a slick little program called Logitech Profiler (which is a free download on the Logitech website if your seller doesn't include software with your purchase) that is very much like xpadder, in that lets you create a custom keymap profile for each game you choose, and will even automatically launch the appropriate profile when a game with a saved profile is opened-you can even create macros using the utility. Logitech Profiler is slightly clumsy compared to xpadder, but since it's dedicated to the F310 you don't spend the extra time setting the utility up for your particular gamepad-so no hunting down images of your controller, and then telling the program what buttons the controller has. All you have to do is map what keys do what and you're set. I took some points away from the the Logitech Profiler software utility for the grab-your-glasses small text in Logitech Profiler, and for the utility's slightly cumbersome nature-for example, you have to "record" even single keystrokes before you can assign them to the controller, but this "record" procedure is what enables the F310 to perform macro functions-it's a tradeoff-more functionality at the expense of simplicity. I found the tradeoff acceptable, but others may be turned off by it. Either way, xpadder, of course, still works with the Logitech F310. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ The good: Simple, familiar button layout, Swiss-army Logitech Profiler software, darn good price on eBay. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ The not-so-good: Simple, slightly clumsy Logitech Profiler software, small text in Logitech Profiler software, no rumble. /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ The bottom line: It doesn't exactly swim in added bells and whistles, but this controller's simplicity is what makes it good-and the free Logitech Profiler software makes it even better.Read full review
I bought this product because I've had mixed results using my DS3 pads for my computer. I have children and they tend to be rough on the PS controllers, so when I use them on my PC they would have erratic ticks, or lack of responsiveness. This controller has been a joy. It is similar in design to the DS3, which is a huge plus, and in xinput mode (switch in the X position on the back of the controller) it behaves just like a XBox 360 controller (which is great for compatibility with current games). The very few issues I have are lack of rumble feedback (I want a F510, but those are increasingly hard to come by, and I don't want to feed batteries to a F710) and some odd contouring on the chassis up under where the LB/RB and LT/RT are. It's a rather steep curve under that surface that is a slight uncomfortable after long periods of time for my large hands. However, the controller generally feels great, the buttons are smooth and responsive, and all the analogues are excellent (both joysticks and triggers). While I prefer a straight up DS3 clone or a DS3 over the layout of the XBox 360 controller, I do love the compromise this one brings. And since I was using a software emulator to use the DS3 as a XBox 360 controller anyhow for compatibility, there was less setup than normal to get this working for all my games.Read full review
