Questions & Answers

Will the new iPhone 12 be compatible with this? Which one is the most important?

It works not only with the iPhone 12 Pro Max, but also with an iPhone 12 Pro Max inside the $50 magsafe apple case. Simply remove the inserts and it will fit around the case like a glove.

FPS shooters and the Note 10 are not supported
3/5

This controller is incompatible with both COD mobile and PUBG. Even though nothing is stated in the instruction manual, there is a Razer Kishi app that will show you which games are compatible. This was tested with a Note 10 and the controller was pushed to its limits. When the controller was turned on, I kept losing internet connection, but it worked when it was turned off, indicating that the controller is causing some interference. I had high hopes for this controller, but based on the games it supports, it isn't worth the $90 I paid. Bluetooth controllers for FPSs for $50.

The Razer Phone 2 is not compatible with this case
3/5

I don't do reviews on a regular basis. This, however, is completely absurd. I was lucky enough to get one before they were all gone. After owning the Junglecat, I was excited to learn that this controller would allow me to play for longer periods of time due to the pass through charging feature. br>When it arrived, I was disappointed to discover that it did not fit my Razer phone 2. what. The heck. br>How does the same company's phone controller not work with the same company's phone? br>On any paperwork, there is no mention of anything. After some research, it was discovered that there are different rubber grips that work with the Razer phones. That you must contact Razer and place an order for. If they have any on hand, that is. What in. I'm completely perplexed.

The phone controller that comes closest to being the best
4/5

For my Note 9, I purchased this on the day it was released. My initial thoughts are as follows: Advantages: br>br> br>It has a good weight-to-size ratio and can be used in any direction. Using top-of-the-line products will no longer cause sore wrists. phone clips that are quite heavy br> I love analog sticks. There are no discernible dead zones, as with an iPega or similar pads. br> Passthrough charging is a nice feature. br> The build quality is excellent. It has a far more substantial feel than the Junglecat. br> Input latency is extremely low. br> If your phone isn't in a case, simply plug it in. Your phone will recognize it as an X-ray when you use it. Pad for entering data Mixed: br>Mixed: br>Mixed: br>Mixe br>Most likely, your phone case will prevent you from using it. It can support up to eight different phone depths. 8mm. My Note 9, which is also an 8, has a similar problem. Even the thinnest phone case has no wiggle room with an 8mm thickness. Buttons and D-shaped D-shaped D-shaped D-shaped D-shaped D-shaped D-shaped D-shaped D- While the pad is responsive, it has a mushy feel to it, and the D-pad has a firmer feel to it. It's also possible to hit diagonals while pressing only one direction on the D-pad, which makes it feel a little too sensitive. Depending on the angle at which you press it, the pad will move. You can't use it with anything other than your phone because it's wired only. br>Native controller support is at best sparse in the Android ecosystem, and dabbling in screen mappers is a surefire way to get kicked out of Fortnite or whatever game you're playing.
Cons:
- It is not possible to use wired earphones with this device. It still has an advantage over the Junglecat in that it blocks both USB and earphones, but the Kishi's other leg is firmly planted in the ground, directly in front of the 3. 5mm jack.
- It has the potential to quickly deplete my battery.
- The app is nothing more than a haphazardly put-together directory of controller-friendly games. However, finding something remotely interesting from this app is extremely difficult.
- It's strange to see it for just a few dollars less than the Junglecat for everything it has, or I guess doesn't have, like a battery or wireless functionality.

Until the end, I thought it was a keeper
3/5

Because I've never owned a gaming console, this sort of fills that void. For my iPhone 11 Pro Max, this is a very appealing gaming solution. There is no lag. The only drawback is that the controllers require the removal of your case. However, because I only use silicon cases, this isn't a big deal. I'm hoping that mobile gaming will catch up to console gaming in terms of popularity. November 3rd, 2020 The controller is only compatible with or in COD multiplayer mode. It's not compatible with any of COD's other modes or games. Also, none of the mobile car games I've installed on my iPhone recognize it so far. Unfortunately, this device quickly loses steam because it is incompatible with the majority of mobile games.

S20 Ultra is a high-end model
5/5

WILL CONTINUE TO EXTEND Just a few quick observations. This will be used with my S20 ultra. Although it exceeds Razer's recommended dimensions, it is a stretch but not terrible. There's no way I'm going to make a case. This also works with Project Xcloud, and it's been a pleasant experience to play with. I strongly suggest it!.

Stadia and Xcloud fans will love this accessory
5/5

I've been waiting for something like this for a long time. It was purchased so that I could play Stadia and other streaming services. It is the ideal size for my Google Pixel 2 xl. It's more comfortable to use than a Nintendo Switch when it's connected. It's also compatible with Android games. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> To fit a phone with a case, you can remove the rubber grips on the inside. It complements my Spigen Rugged Armor case perfectly.

It went above and beyond my expectations! I was only interested in purchasing this to see if it would work with my OnePlus 6T
5/5

I intended to return it, knowing that the quality would be subpar (and that it wouldn't feel like a Nintendo Switch). My assumptions were incorrect. Everything was fine as soon as I plugged in my phone and started playing some games. All of my games, cloud streaming apps, and emulators worked flawlessly, with some of them even having full mapping. I decided to keep it after ten minutes. If you want a good gaming controller for your phone, make sure the specs and dimensions fit, and if they do, buy it right away.
