Best of all, unlike some competitors and despite the PlayStation branding on the model we reviewed, it’s compatible with everything: remote play apps from Sony, Microsoft, and Steam, as well as mobile apps with controller support.

It’s about as good of a compromise as a mobile controller could offer: the features of a console gamepad, in a relatively portable package. Passthrough connections allow you to use wired headsets, or to charge the phone and grip while in use. The grips are more substantial, mimicking an actual DualSense just as Nacon emulated the Xbox controller, but the whole apparatus still feels light and ergonomic for extended sessions. The arm that supports your phone is sturdy and reassuring. To date, nothing else has quite emulated the sensation of playing a Switch like the Backbone One (PlayStation Edition). Thankfully, the Gamesir X2 Pro’s d-pad feels fine and will get the job done, be it a fighting game or platformer.” #5. Our GameSir X2 Lightning review: “ My biggest point of contention when looking at any controller usually comes down to the d-pad, something I find to be an afterthought regarding mobile controllers specifically. While we did observe some input errors, and wished the thumbsticks were concave instead, GameSir’s X2 controller provides a decently priced alternative to the bigger name brands seen on the rest of this list.

Its rotatable plug makes connection that much simpler, and its max length of 167 mm should fit practically any device, even the iPhone 14 Pro Max.

The GameSir X2 mobile controller scored a 7.5 from our reviewers in both its Android and iPhone iterations. You may be better off connecting one of the other vice-style devices on this list via Bluetooth and using the iPad’s stand. Depending on the user and the iPad model- standard iPad, not Air, Pro, or Mini-the whole thing could be too bulky for extended play, and of course, removing a tablet from its case is even more terrifying than a smartphone. However, this is definitely the bulkiest mobile gaming experience you could find on this list. Nothing comes as close to duplicating the Switch or Steam Deck experience like playing on an actual tablet with controllers attached, making the GameVice a contender for this list. There’s no need to extricate your phone from its case, but putting these controllers down safely mid-session can require some tricky balancing.Īn iPad may not be a phone, but the latest generation is still a great alternative for gaming on your regular controllers. This may feel more like a traditional gaming experience, though your viewing angle may end up lower than usual.
Vice-style devices, conversely, are usually regular gamepad controllers like those you’d use for your PlayStation or Xbox, except they have a vice-like attachment to mount your phone to it. However, you’ll almost always have to remove your phone from its regular case in order to slot it into the grip, so be aware if that’s a point of personal contention for you. By slotting directly into the controller, your phone can access a controller’s bells and whistles, like passthrough power. Grip-style devices, as we’ll refer to them, effectively turn your mobile phone into a Nintendo-style gamepad, reminiscent of the Switch or a Steam Deck. Before we begin, there are a couple inherent traits of both predominant mobile controller types that are worth exploring before you buy.
