With the increased push and interesting in game streaming over the last 18 months, there have been a lot of attempts to make accessories that work best with these services. When using a smartphone, the most commonly seen accessory is a regular game controller with a clip attached that lets a user mount their phone above it. The advantage of these configurations is the use of a normal, full size controller, but the downside is that they can be large and bulky, and not super portable. A few months ago, gaming peripheral maker Razer released the Razer Kishi, a mobile controller that clips onto a phone in a Nintendo Switch like configuration. And because it plugs in directly, it doesn’t need to be charged itself.

I recently got my hands on one, and after hours of extensive playing testing the device, I think it may be a winner… if you can deal with the cost.
