    Nice controller would be better if it worked with

    While this product is very nice and does function as promised it would have gotten 5 stars if it were PS Remote play compatible. While fluid with most mobile games it can be somewhat laggy in response at times but this could be due to a need for software updates on my android phone. I utilize this with a galaxy S23 Ultra which is a top tier phone and once you get used to the controller it works well. Again if your expecting seenless pairing with ps remote play you will be sadly disappointed. My work around for this was downloading a 3rd party app called ps play from playstore which cost 5.99 while it works well you are unable to play remotely away from your home network as you can with remote play app. Other than that the controller works as advertised.

    It makes games on my phone easier to play but downside is the my hands are too big for this gamepad and the bottoms are small too.

    Works for what my bf needs. He plays emulated games on his phone and he has no issues in terms of its functionality. However, like most of these phone-controllers they dont seem to work well with a case on the phone. I even tried it with my own phone which has a pretty thin case and it couldn't reach unless i squeezed the controller into the phone the whole time. The solution is to just take the case off and thats only a minor annoyance. We havent tested its software features much since he hasnt played games that really utilize those functions.

    Joy-con Thumb sticks

    I upgraded from the Razer kishi V1. I wasn't disappointed with the Razer kishi V1 but holding it your hand. The remote never felt that comfortable. It wasn't uncomfortable either but the elastic band the thick round edges of the Raver Kishi v1 just wasn't comfortable enough to keep me that engaged. My example of the comfort level is playing games from a recliner. Then switching to a gamer racing style chair. The Gamer Chair imo just makes you focus on the game that much more. The two things that the Razer kishi v1 did right. That isn't present on the V2 are the Thumb sticks. V1 had con·caved thumbs sticks. The V2 has Joy-con thumb sticks. I fixed that problem by purchasing Nintendo switch joy-con thumb stick grips. Another thing that V1 did better then V2 was the portability of it. V1 would collapse and fit in your pocket. It was still thick and didn’t feel comfortable in your pocket. With the V2 i just got a carrying case that has a clip and i carry it around like that. Overall i enjoy this upgrade over version 1. It just keeps me playing more.

    Works flawlessly. The analog sticks are a problem though. They made them smaller with less travel. Also the top of the sticks are round and slippery. It's hard to keep your thumbs on top of the sticks. The older model had larger convex thumb sticks and were much more comfortable to use. My S24 Ultra phone fits without issue which is why I bought this.

    Its a pretty good controller for what it is. The buttons feel amazing and the software is pretty decent in helping you find compatible games and map for others. My only issue is it doesnt stretch out to be able to use with a case with most phones. If you are looking for a good controller for your phone i highly recommend this one.

    The Kishi is obviously designed with android in mind but works for the iPhone 15 most of the time. Occasionally it doesn’t sent the connection it otherwise works exactly as intended. I think my only grips about any of these is the need to remove the phone case for them to actually work with the controller.

    Best gaming controller I've used so far and I've used quite a few. Definitely way better and easier to get codm working than the V1 controller by kishi

    Great if you do a lot of mobile gaming, not worth it if you dont. Pros. By far the best mobile controller I've tried. Super customizeable. Cons. Not widely recognized by games as a controller. (There are workarounds however.) The software is subpar.

    Software needs to be updated to work better with a wider range of android devices. Nost games recognize this device as an xbox controller when it is not and it had stick drift out of the box.

    A very handy device that makes phone gaming that little bit better. The layout and feel of the buttons are good with no question if they were pressed, the ergonomics are as good as you can get for something like this. Very much worth it if you already have a high end phone that can run great games that would be better with a controller. Used with a pixel 8 pro.

    Easy to hook up, connects and works straight away and the controls feel very nice. I hope in the future for a variant like this that is wireless because though my phone fits you have to be really careful putting it in the controller so as not to damage the USB type C connector. I have had this for a while now and it has been smooth and fun to play with.
