Nifty Product
I considered getting the other controller with the screen already built in - but this product is just that, but with your phone! I think it's pretty nifty! Also there was a great deal when I bought it (it was like $10-20 off on sale) and I used two gift cards and ending up buying it for a whooping $70 :D The staff was so patient with me and knowledgeable and I'm grateful they led me to a great product!

Playstation on the go
This thing is awesome. I’m able to play my PS five on the go anywhere I’m at as long as I have a Wi-Fi or cellular connection. Just gotta leave it in standby mode play this thing all the time the buttons aren’t the best but it’s better than not playing. It’s hard to play first person shooter, but it’s great to play sports games Not saying that you you can’t play first person shooter but it’s just tough maybe better for younger people I was able to get this for $75 on sale in store. Not sure the price now but definitely would buy again tried to link it to my Xbox, but I believe you need a separate version of the control would definitely buy again
