Turtle Seaside Recon Cloud for $80: Right here is one other Xbox-branded controller that helps Xbox Cloud Gaming and Distant Play and comes with one free month of Recreation Move Final. It feels good in-hand, has a stable cellphone clip, and works with Android, Xbox, and Home windows. It additionally options some audio enhancements (when plugged in), programmable buttons, and a helpful Professional-Goal function that reduces sensitivity on the correct stick for aiming in FPS video games. It is a good improve choose over the PowerA controller listed above, however solely in order for you the additional options.
GameSir X3 for $100: On paper, that is an improve over the X2, with refined buttons, extra choices for the joysticks, and a cooling fan on the again. However I like to recommend the cheaper X2 Professional listed above as an alternative, as a result of the fan provides bulk and weight and it wants energy by way of a devoted USB-C port. (It has a separate USB-C port for pass-through charging of your cellphone.)
PowerA Moga XP7-X Plus for $100: This controller presents the whole lot the XP-5 X does however you too can take away the stand within the heart to fit in your cellphone (my Pixel 6 Professional suits properly). It’s sturdy, presents loads of buttons (solely a screenshot button is lacking), and might wirelessly cost your cellphone. However it’s costly, has a Micro USB port after I’d favor USB-C, and has solely a 2,000 mAh battery, so follow the XP-5 X except you really need that spring-loaded cradle to suit your cellphone in.
