Other game controllers that we have tested
There are several other mobile controllers that we tested who have missed a place above or have not managed to note.

Acer Nitro mobile game controller for £ 70: The compact design is ideal for portability, and the Acer controller folds even in half to slide into your pocket or your bag. You can connect devices up to 8.3 inches via USB-C, and the controller has standard offbeat joysticks, four standard facial buttons and four shoulder triggers. Everything seems a little cramped and basic; The triggers are ok, but everything else feels a little meh. There is a USB-C port for the passage of passage, but there is a lack of other features to justify the price (no room effect, no personalization, no software). This is only available in the United Kingdom at the moment.
Gulikit Elves 2 Pro for $ 50: The shape recalls the former Sega controllers, but the Hall Effective Effects Gulikit joysticks, nine vibration levels and the control of the six -axis gyroscopic movement in this Bluetooth controller. The shoulder buttons are beautiful and clicked, and the D-PAD floating at 8-way is decent for games and combat platforms, although the four buttons and the four buttons use a membrane. It’s compact, so I found it a bit uncomfortable to use for long periods, although I have large hands.
Gxtrust Mylox Wireless Mobile Controller for £ 45: This large cradle-style controller connects via Bluetooth 5.0 rather than USB-C. It supports basic haptic feedback and has LED RVB buttons. It is quite comfortable to use, but it seems a little cheap, and despite the big design, the buttons and the triggers are small. I don’t like D-Pad. If you turn on the lighting, the battery life is below the 12 hours suggested. This is only available in the United Kingdom and Europe.
Gamesir x3 pro for $ 80: This replaces the X3 and stretches open to rock almost any Android phone (or USB-C iPhones) in its rubber hug. It is good, with customizable handles, clickys buttons and room effects with detachable caps of different sizes in the pretty zipped transport case. The title is the huge fan on the back capable of serious cooling power, which could be useful because smartphones can become uncomfortably hot when you play for a long time, although I found the sound boring, and the X3 Pro is very large. Personalization options are welcome, but the Gamesir application is a bit buggy and confusing.
Asus Rog Tessen for $ 104: My excitement at the prospect of an Asus mobile controller decreased fairly quickly when I started using the Rog Tessen. It has a neat folding design, reactive controls and a passage of passage. I liked the programmable rear paddles, and there is RGB lighting for jazz. But the thumbs felt uncomfortable fairly quickly, and the pimples proved to be a little noisy. This is also only Android and does not work with iPhones (even USB-C iPhones).
Gamesir X4 Aileron for $ 100: This controller has a lot to do, including a compact design, RGB lighting, room effect sticks and touch buttons. It is available in two parts, which is ideal for folding it carefully, but means that you have to associate one side, then the other, and it can be capricious. It is not a bad effort, but there are better options above.
CRKD Atom Controller for $ 20: This small tiny controller is super cute and very portable, with a wrist strap that you can connect to a bag. The battery life goes to 10 hours with a USB-C port for recharging, although I sometimes found it on in my pocket. It is not large enough or comfortable enough to use for a long time, but if you need a super portable emergency controller, it could adapt to the bill.

Turtle Beach Atom Controller for $ 50: With an intelligent two -part design, this controller retreats carefully, but does not feel safe without back. The pliers on each side are awkward, especially with phones with large camera modules. I had trouble connecting and I don’t like the right side to be turned on separately (press the B and menu buttons). The right side connects wirelessly (2.4 GHz), but the controller connects to your phone via Bluetooth. It especially worked for me, but when I played Yudge, The movement was reversed on the left stick. You get around 20 hours of autonomy. It takes about two hours to load. If portability is your main concern, it can worth it.
Powera XP Ultra for $ 80: I love the idea of combining lots of options in a controller, and Crazy XP Ultra from Powera is certainly versatile. It works wirelessly with your Xbox, Windows PC or Android phone, providing solid autonomy (up to 40 hours via Bluetooth or 60 hours for Xbox). But the mini-controller Gimmicky which slides, of transformer style, for the game on the move is too small and difficult to grasp comfortably. The buttons, the triggers and the sticks are all good, and the clip works well to keep your phone, but the D-PAD is steep. Overall, it is a expensive mixed bag.
Riot Pwr iOS Xbox Edition Cloud Gaming Controller for $ 20:: It is an iPhone certified controller for the Apple handset or iPad games (former Lightning Port peripherals) which has a passage of passage, a direct lightning cable connection and a 3.5 mm audio port. It looks like an Xbox controller, supports Xbox Cloud games or distance game, and comes with a free month of ultimate game game. Lowering, the cable is a little messy. THE MFI Riot PWR controller for ($ 40) is almost identical, but without the garish green style and the colorful Xbox buttons. There is also a USB-C option.
Recognized Turtle Beach for $ 40: Here is another Xbox brand controller that supports Xbox Cloud games and distance play and comes with a free month of ultimate game game. It is good in hand, has a solid phone clip and works with Android, Xbox and Windows. It also includes certain audio improvements (when connected), programmable buttons and practical pro-AIM functionality which reduces sensitivity to the right stick to aim in FPS games. It is a good choice of upgrading on the Powera controller listed above, but only if you want additional features.
Powera Moga XP7-X Plus for $ 94: This controller offers everything that XP-5 X does, but you can also delete the support in the center to place in your phone (my Pixel 6 Pro adapts well). It is robust, offers many buttons (only a screenshot button is missing) and can load your phone wirelessly. But it is expensive, has a micro USB port when I prefer USB-C, and has only one battery of 2000 mAh, so stay with the XP-5 X unless you only want this spring cradle adapts to your phone.
8bit SN30 Pro for $ 45: Conjuring Memories of the SNES, this controller works with Android, Windows, MacOS and Switch. He has an integrated rumble, a solid D-Pad, good battery life and a USB-C port.
