GAME CONTROLLER
When I play video games, sometimes I use a gamepad and sometimes I use a keyboard and mouse. A gamepad can be held directly in the hands without the need for a table. Keyboards and mice can perform many complex and precise operations. They each have their own convenience.
其中A gamepad can be held...能不能用复数Gamepads?会不会引起误解?
末句They each have...convenience.能不能改为Each of them has its own convenience?
在该语境下哪一句更好,为什么?

      其实我直接会说"I use both gamepad and keyboard+mouse when I play games." 一般不会有人理解为“at the same time”的。后面两句话中间用“while”连接会更顺滑

        原文中的句子“A gamepad can be held directly in the hands without the need for a table.”确实可以改为复数形式,变为“Gamepads can be held directly in the hands without the need for a table.”。这样的修改并不会引起误解。原句中使用的是单数形式的“gamepad”,强调的是单个游戏手柄的特点;而改为复数形式后,“Gamepads”则泛指所有的游戏手柄,强调的是这一类产品的共性

          Gamer controllers
          I sometimes use a gamepad to play video games, and sometimes a keyboard and a mouse. The gamepad is very convenient because I can hold it in my hand. The mouse and keyboard have to be put on a desk but it allows me to perform complex and precise operations in the games. Both sets of devices have their advantages.

            语法上,keyboard and mouse可以单数就好了。内容上,可以再扩展一下,例如说game controler can be held in hand, without the need of table, thus I can sit in a comfy couch, relax and play. On the other hand, using keyboard and mouse can perform more complex and precise operation, giving significant skill improvement in certain games. blablabla......

              有种说法是mouse作老鼠时复数是mice,作鼠标意时复数用mouses

                感觉没必要用第一人称叙述,而且除非要凑字数否则感觉废话有点多。优点可以直接在第一句里说完,最后一句可以直接删除
