tbh the new joysticks are a *huge* deal breaker to me. One of my favorite things about the old Kishi V1 is that it uses Xbox-like joysticks, which are made to last. The new Nintendo Switch-like joysticks will 100% start to drift eventually

@ValTek_Armory Год назад

at least we now have a solution to drifting by adding a piece of craft foam to the back of the stick housing

Great review and I just got my kishi v2 on Saturday. So far I LOVE the changes they made. It feels smaller and more solid overall. I absolutely hated the mushy dpad on v1. This is crisp and defined, and pleasantly ergonomic. I love the backbone but IOS sucks for any games that aren't for iOS, and by that I mean you need workarounds to make literally anything work. Funny, as this is released, the usb-c backbone was finally announced!

I was considering something like this, or a cheap clip for an Xbox controller like you mentioned near the start of the video. But with the options for standalone handhelds getting much better, I'm starting to think it would be easier to just get one of them. The Kishi V2 isn't really that much more portable than the Ayn Odin, for example, and with the Odin you're not having to make your phone pull double duty as a gaming machine. Which would be less than ideal in terms of managing the battery and storage usage, plus most phones don't have very good cooling solutions.

@deleted72636 2 года назад

That's what I'm thinking plus you dont get black bars on the Odin unlike smartphones. Only thing is the resell value for the Odin Pro is ridiculous right now.

@lucascarracedo7421 2 года назад

Well yes. But both options can suit different use cases. You always have your phone with you, so for some that's a plus. Also, a modern smartphone can be much more powerful and efficient than an Odin, so you could limit it to odin levels of performance, which could be a workaround for the lesser thermal solution. My main issue with these usbc controllers is that they all end up forcing the usbc port of the phone badly due to bending, which is absolutely horrible on the long term

@Odd_Taxi_epi04 2 года назад

The cheap clip for an Xbox controller solution don't force the usb-c port, and you can use it with usb-c, and not only with your phone. I find very hard to justify those dedicated phone controllers.

I have gotten used to em and they are good. No more mushyness like v1. Overall just a better experience than the V1 especially how quick I can get my phone in and out.

I didn’t know anything about the rubber spacers being pre installed. At first, I was thinking how this controller was not compatible with my phone. But that was only because I didn’t take off the rubber spacers and insert my phone in the controller properly. I felt like I was starting to break my phone. As soon as I fixed my problem, everything else was okay. I even thought this controller only works when you actually plug it in like as if you were charging the controller. Again, I didn’t plug in the controller properly.

@awesomeferret Год назад

I'm glad that it doesn't support fast charging. That would be a dealbreaker for me if it did. Why would I want to overheat my phone while gaming? If a device like this supports fast charging, it NEEDS to be able to be disabled. Thankfully, you should be able to just use an old power adapter that can't do more than an amp, but high quality ones are a lot rarer than they used to be (even the cheap modern ones are designed to pump out more power).

Happy to report that from a performance standpoint the V2 is WAY better than V1, Gamesir X2, S5B Shaks, Glap and Ipega 9167.

I really like the original Kishi, the two sides snap together feels compact and secure. This new version looks really bad, a big step backward in design. I wouldn't bat an eye if it's put beside some cheap controllers in a shop.

Wish the nexus app had a controller remapper for phones that don't have one in their own gaming launcher like they should, samsung. I know there's apps for that but having it all in one would be nice.

This is cool but not as cool as the steam deck 😎

Finally a good review, very professional 👏

Thanks for the charging info. It's my biggest regret over buying the first Kishi. And USB audio would also be awesome, since unless you buy the Hammerhead earbuds or another set with a gaming mode, Bluetooth lag is just too noticable. And that's really ironic, right? The device is designed to get us past input lag, but doesn't help at all with audio lag. As for the original's ability to fit phones, I took out the foam inserts. I no longer need to take my phone (Galaxy S21) out of its case. Of course, I would recommend not having a case on during gameplay anyway. The cases will always retain heat and heat's not good for gaming. But again, thanks for the review.

They should have just called it what it is Razer Kishi: Backbone

Hi what kind of controller can you recommend for Rog5 phone?

@ETAPRIME 2 года назад

Does ROG make a controller just for that phone?

@richardduran6449 2 года назад

@@ETAPRIME actually they have and its called kunai 3 but man it is so expensive, so im looking for an alternative or other brand that would work with rog5 phone

@pumbi69 2 года назад

I don't know if i would want fast charging while gaming it would damage the battery and add excess heat but the option would have been nice

@Leo-si2gw 2 года назад

This is why. It would just throttle performance.

@popcorn5968 2 года назад

It's using the switch analog joysticks which is a downside. Those stivks would not last for too long

@zomphan23 2 года назад

The v2 redesign only fixed the issue with the ribbon cable who connect the right side of the controller ,I love the v1 design but the fold thing it's really a problem, apart from that the complete redesign it wasn't necessary

@ghosttiee9212 Год назад

The dpad is better the buttons are better the triggers are better everything is and the joysticks are like the switch ? So what?

Original razer kishi is not good, I can’t believe my man here is promoting the original as a Good controller, it’s straight trash quality I just bought one and returned it instantly! The quality of thr buttons was sooo bad and uncomfortable I was actually shocked! Buy an Xbox/ps5 controller for the same price or cheaper with a clamp, don’t bother with razers cheep ass materials.

@YDINO69 2 года назад

Those analog sticks look like a big downgrade

@Iktofed Год назад

Love the original one. For a hundred bucks this needs the headphone jack and to not bottleneck the charging speeds. OR it needs better build quality. It looks like a generic offbrand controller. Give me a fucking break lmao. Who is this even for I wonder. It's like double the price for two extra buttons and slightly better build

Getting those higher charging rates through the controller is tough, because that means that a lot of components along that path in the PCB has to be more 'robust' let us say. Not impossible, but the things that are rated at 120W are much larger/expensive/rare than the things that are rated to 15w. I want the controller light/cheap/easy to find. I'm okay with slow charging through my controller. So is every PlayStation controller user. (Sorry PS Gamers)
