Nintendo Switch style design
Unlike classic gamepads for PC and consoles, where everything has long been invented, game device designers for smartphones continue to search for the perfect shape. Therefore, now the market is dominated by 3 options: a classic controller a la DualShock, which connects to a smartphone via USB or Bluetooth, the same classic version, but with a special holder for a smartphone like NVIDIA Shield and a sliding panel a la Nintendo Switch in the centre of which smartphone is inserted. The hero of this iPega PG-9087 review belongs to the last option.
Friendly even with very large smartphones
The entire central part is occupied by a sliding groove with rubber inserts for a smartphone. It can extend up to a maximum of 170 mm, which is just enough for indecently large modern smartphones. The test Redmi Note 8 Pro sat back to back, but held securely. And this is not the smallest smartphone. In terms of the location of the buttons, everything is without surprises: a standard cross, 4 central buttons, a pair of sticks and 4 side triggers. I didn’t quite like that the sticks are asymmetrical like those of the Xbox controller, and the triggers are actually ordinary buttons without pressure sensitivity. However, it is unlikely that anyone will go to a Mortal Kombat or FIFA tournament with such a gamepad, so let's not find fault.
Battery for 6 hours and power saving mode
When connected to a smartphone, the iPega PG-9087 is powered by a built-in 400 mAh battery, which, according to our observations, is enough for approximately 6 hours of continuous play. The sleep mode helps save battery power, into which the gamepad automatically switches after 5 to 6 minutes of inactivity. In addition to a smartphone, it can be connected via Bluetooth to a TV box, Android TV or computer. In the latter case, you will need a Bluetooth receiver, since a wired connection is not provided. During the tests, he quickly “picked up” and kept a stable connection, so if you are not embarrassed by the asymmetric sticks, then there is nothing more to complain about.
