A lot people make money as professional gamers and tech reviewers. They are able to speak at length about different qualities of clicks and compare triggers and switches across platforms. that's fine when the controllers are all similar, but there is nothing like this anywhere. This is totally revolutionary.
I am playing a AAAA title, cyberpunk, on my phone on stadia and it runs better over wifi than it does on a PC. Not able to get a PS5 so this is the only way I can get the game, and the best way in my opinion.
My PIXL phone is now a high end ultra powerful console quality portable game device like a PS5 switch with an AMOLED screen! I couldn't care less about comparing the quality of the button clicks to PS, Xbox and nintendo. This rules and the buttons are great. quibbles with mushiness and clickiness are in the realm of stuff you won't notice at all.
Do you really want to clip your phone onto the top of a regular controller? No. That would be really distracting I think and looks totally clumsy. This thing attaches easily to the sides of an android phone with USBC and works without latency. My PXL + Kishi is a way better gaming device than my nintendo switch overall. It really doesn't matter about preferences for buttons. they are fine. and the reviews that talk about it not being "heavy" like a quality controller? the weight is the battery and this doesn't have one. None of the critical reviews make any difference in gameplay. This rocks. Buy it. I am a dad and don't have time to sit in front of the tv and play a PS5 game without my kids, but I can sit on the couch and game while they watch cartoons. This is the first time I've gotten to play good video games since they were born! Thank you Razer this is amazing.
***update**** ok I have had this for a while now and after comparing to my stadia controller and switch pro controllers, yes I can see that buttons are kind of bad by comparison. the switch pro and stadia controller feel effortless and give a tiny tactile click that serves as player feedback. response on the Kishi feels gummy, especially on the dpad. overall it feels like the buttons maybe use a rubber overlay, and not mechanical switches. I don't know I'm not going to open this. The shoulder triggers also have a sort of scrapey feeling whereas on a pro controller feels effortless and has a mechanical tactile response. I think for the price point, which is greater than both my other pro controllers, razer could have made better switches, especially considering that without a lithium battery the cost of materials here isn't that much. I think I am going to deduct a star here since yeah the buttons could be better at the price point. However, I think the form factor is totally revolutionary and so much better than clipping your phone above a controller. I still recommend this but it definitely should have either much better switches or be 25 dollars less.
**update 2*** I'm coming to appreciate the buttons a little more especially since the triggers are analog, which means they communicate how hard you press them. I restored back to 5 stars but I still don't see why this is 70 dollars, especially since it doesn't have a battery or a bluetooth module. however, there is virtually no competition in this form factor so still a must buy.

Razer Kishi Gamepad for Android
Honest Average Consumer Review for Razer Kishi Mobile Gamepad for Android USB-CThe Razer Kishi Gamepad for Android is a solid Gamepad that is easy to use. It conveniently converts your mobile phone into a handheld console, somewhat like the Nintendo Switch. It has 2 thumb sticks on each side, a directional pad, and the XYAB buttons. It also has two trigger buttons located on the top side of the controller.The buttons can be mapped, depending on the game being played. The configuration can be tailored to the user’s preference. I have used the Razer Kishi when playing Diablo and Mega Man X Dive on the Android platform. Using the controller is much better than using the phone’s touch screen. It feels more comfortable and frees up more screen real estate in the game. This makes the game play more enjoyable.The Gamepad connects directly to the phone using the USB-C connector. I did not experience any lag in gameplay. The buttons are responsive and makes for a smooth flow in the game.Overall, the Razer Kishi is a great device that lives up to my expectations. It has made gameplay more enjoyable. The compact form factor allows me to carry it without much problem. It does not require batteries that helps me save power for longer playtime. It also has USB-C connector out at the bottom that allow me to fast charge my device even without taking it off the Gamepad. It is convenient and fun to use.

I recently purchased a Nintendo Switch for my wife during the holidays and rediscovered how cool it was to have a portable gaming system. In the past, portable gaming with things like the Nintendo DS or PSP were “portable” gaming systems, but with the Nintendo Switch, it was a full fledge gaming console in your hands. This got me thinking as I love playing games on my iPhone and the iOS recently enabled controller support.
I went to Amazon and did some research to see what my options were to add a controller to my iPhone. I knew I did not want a regular controller with a phone bracket above it as that seemed too gimmicky to me. I wanted to see if there was something like the Nintendo Switch. After a brief amount of searching, I came across the Razer Kishi.
Comparing the cost of the Kishi to other bluetooth “bracket” style controllers, yes the Kishi is a little more expensive; however, how it fits to the phone and how well it works, in my opinion, is well worth the cost.
The controller collapses into a small portable form factor which is easy to put into backpacks or purses without worry of damaging it. When you are ready to play, you just unlatch two little clips on the back, extend the controller out, and plug your phone in. Once you open a game, if the game supports a controller, it will just work! **Important note, the controller support and button configuration is per the game, not the controller. So if a game does not work as you might expect it, it is NOT Razer’s fault, but the way the game developer designed it**
The gaming experience is excellent with the Kishi. It truly feels like a Nintendo Switch with the console quality controls. Every game I have played has been seamless. The controller IS NOT bluetooth, so you will be running on the phones battery. This does drain the battery much faster than a bluetooth controller, but on the flip side, there is no button lag, and you do not need to charge the controller so it is always ready to go. The controller has a lightening port on the bottom right that can be used as a passthrough to charge your phone while playing.
If you are looking for a compact, solid console quality gaming controller, look no further. The Kishi has exceeded all of my expectations so far. There is even an iPhone app you can download to make sure the firmware is up to date and working properly which shows ongoing support for their already excellent product.

Solid gaming console quality controller which plays like a Nintendo Switch
Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2021
TL:DR: The Razer Kishi that I use for my iPhone 12 Pro is a solid console quality controller attachment that works excellent for iPhone gaming. I have played games from the Apple App Store and Apple Arcade to using the Playstation Remote app to play games through my PS5. Will drain battery fast if not plugged in.Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2021

Uso no xCloud e no GeForceNow, e você tem 0 de Latências, não da nem para acreditar que jogo um jogo via Streaming no Celular com um Controle top desse sem Latência alguma, recomendo bastante. Alguns jogos da Playstore ele funciona muito bem, mas jogos que não permite Controle, só usando um software por fora.
Obs: Se o seu Celular tiver película 3D ou mais grossa, isso pode atrapalhar um pouco o encaixe.
