This is a PS5 and PC compatible controller that actually feels solid. I’ve got the Black and White and the Red and Black units here—the design is unique, the backlighting is sharp, and the texture on the grips and triggers feels premium. Usually, I hunt for the catch, but after tearing through Path of Exile 2 and hitting the track in some racing sims, I’m struggling to find a single flaw. Is this the new standard for third-party controllers? Let’s dive in. Credits & Contact: Editor Shout-out: Huge thanks to my editor, Suraiya, for the incredible work on this video!

About This Video

In this review, I’m putting the Gamrombo RH 5188 controller through what I always do: I go hunting for the “catch.” It’s a PS5 and PC compatible controller, and I tested two colorways (Black/White and Red/Black). Right out of the box, it surprised me—this thing feels solid in-hand, the design is genuinely unique, and the backlighting looks clean instead of cheap. The grip and trigger texture also has that premium feel I usually don’t expect from random third‑party controllers. From there, I break down the details that actually matter: build quality, lighting effects, the grip texture, and the paddle buttons. I also go into the turbo functions and macro programming, then walk through how to pair it on PC over Bluetooth and how to connect it on PS5. For real-world testing, I ran it in racing sims to check trigger response and then spent time in Path of Exile 2 to see if the layout feels intuitive under pressure. And honestly? After all that, I’m struggling to find a flaw—which is not something I say often. By the end, I answer the big question: is this a legit replacement for more expensive controllers?
