Finally. I was looking for a mobile gaming controller "showdown" kind of video where people compared the best ones, pretty much everyone you have in this video, where they go on explaining how each feel compared to one another, what their features are compared to one anther, etc., and to also explain in their opinion what one feels like the best after having tried them all, and why it feels best to them. This is exactly what I was looking for. You should think about doing one of these videos every year to keep updating this. Great video.

It seems that they were only made to promote the razer phone and the high-end phones of that time, they were able to make a universal control like the kishi v1, which in turn is opaque to the game.

@Xelger Год назад

I had the first-version Kishi, and I figured out how to easily collapse it. However, after collapsing and expanding it many times, as expected, the ribbon cable couldn't take any more, and the left side of my controller stopped functioning. I got the Kishi v2, but I am not a fan of the extra buttons. To me, they just get in the way, and they can only be mapped to function exactly the same as one other specific button on the controller, which can maybe be useful to use as alternatives to clicking the sticks in, but that's about it. I kind of wish I got the Backbone One though now.

@JLambert904 7 месяцев назад

As a owner of both, the back bone sucks compared to the razer kishi. Honestly you can get some small screw drivers to disassemble the razer kishi and reattach the ribbon that’s come loose. Just a thought

@Xelger 7 месяцев назад

@@JLambert904 It didn't come loose. The wires inside the cable broke from bending them back and forth too many times due to them bending 180⁰ in four places when you collapse and extend it.

@starnett99 7 месяцев назад

@Xelger Yeah that happens eventually with how it is designed. Like the previous person said just get a new ribbon cable and cut off the old ones (because they are wired through back part) controller will work like new again.

@nsptyty9617 4 месяца назад

It's barely noticeable, however the direct (type-c) controller works without any delay and it doesn't need to be recharged - works without internal battery so it's also lighter.

@Xenoni 10 месяцев назад

I’m new to the mobile controllers .. this video somehow left me with more questions than answers: what are the differences between Bluetooth and wired controllers, battery life, latency, weight etc.. most of these controllers seem flimsy but no comment about their reliability or durability etc ..I know this video came 7 months before the iPhone 15 , but by then everyone know it’s gonna be usbc, I was expecting a comment about software support for iOS on usbc devices ..

@galaxycraft0075 7 месяцев назад

A Bluetooth controller is wireless and connects via Bluetooth, a wired controller needs to be plugged into the device to be used. Also most of these probably use USBC as virtually all phones use that USB type now.

Bluetooth is only good on pc or console I don't want latency on games I need to perfect dodge and parry

I use to like the Kishi but it's not durable for the $100 price. (Xbox). My first Kishi lasted a year. My second only six months. They both failed to work from the left side.

@SegaMSE Год назад

A big issue I see with this kind of controller is that the lightning or USB-C plug is always in the phone, it will wiggle, minimal at first but in the long run it will damage the cable or worse the phone. I have an old backup which USB-C port is so damaged if I just breath on the phone it stops charging. Since phones aren't made to be repaired that shortens the lifespan of a phone drastically

@xdragon2k 10 месяцев назад

I had that kind of problem with USB-C charging. Then I changed the USB-C cable to a new one and it works again. Perhaps you're due for a cable change.
