Controller Case? - Razer Phone Accessories

When the Razer phone was announced I expected Razer to come up with their own controller case (like the controller for moto mods).
Since that was not the case, I was wondering what other options we have for the Razer phone...

I like this one:
CamRom® Telescopic Wireless Bluetooth Game Controller Gamepad Joystick for Samsung iPhone iPod iPad Android Phone Tablet PC CA1042ZR

Hit up fasttech.. They have many Bluetooth controller that will fit our phone and make it shaped like just about every handheld you can imagine.

I just purchased this about 2 weeks ago and it's been great so far, it connected instantly with no issues and worked out of the box with 99% of the emulators and games on my device without even messing with the button mapping. It has no lag that I can see, and has amazing battery life, I haven't charged it yet since I got and I've used it at least 4 hours each day. The phone fits in it perfectly with out a case, and even with the bulky case that I have on it now I can still squeeze it in and it holds securely. I'd recommend it if your looking for a controller.
Edit: apparently I'm not allowed to post links because I don't have more then 10 posts, but if you go to Amazon and search "Bounabay Wireless Telescopic Bluetooth Controller" it's the first result

Bit late on the reply but Razer do have an older Bluetooth mobile controller they made for their Forge TV, it's called the Razer Serval and from the looks of its images on Amazon UK it has a clip for mobiles. I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea if they prefer the actual case controller instead of a clip controller.

Awesome keyboard/stand

Since I don't need the extra power or USB connection, a nice looking keyboard would be something like the Logitech Android compatible one. Looks pretty sharp to me and very small to fit in a small bag along with your tablet. I really don't see the need for the Asus keyboard. I guess if I wanted a keyboard/screen I would have just bought a laptop, right?

?... This is a transformer prime.
That a bigger than the dock... Plus the dock will fit in just about any bag the tablet will.. Why buy a transformer and not the dock? May as well have just gotten something else just my $. 02

I had bought this and returned it.
The keyboard is awful and cheap feeling, which I found odd because their stuff is usually decent quality (g15 keyboard going strong for 8yrs)
Check your local big box electronics store, they may have one on display.
Bought this for my in-laws iPad2. It actually works better than the Apple brand wireless keyboard, but I would never buy it for my TP (if it ever gets delivered....)
My sister bought this keyboard when she bought her original transformer during the black friday sale. She said she likes it and it works well for her when she uses it during her biology class. It prevented her from having to save up to buy the dock.
Basically the sexiness of the Prime dock is reason enough to buy it.
Why did you buy a TP if you aren't going to buy the dock?
The dock charges it, it has a touchpad, it's thin, and it's specifically designed for the TP.
You might get this because it will work with nearly all Android devices going forward, including phones???
(but yes, for myself I can't pass up the sexy with the dock).
Incidentally, via the USB adapter the Logitech unifying gear all works with the Prime too (more variety, also some of the unifying gear is much cheaper!).
Video showing the bluetooth gear and the USB stuff working:
(Navigation for the connectivity demo: bluetooth keyboard and mouse with the browser @ 1:00, USB adapter with wireless USB keyboard and mouse combo @ 2:55, N64oid with high res textures and the Logitech USB Games Controller @ 6:48, Shadowgun THD optimised for Tegra 3 with a PS3 Controller @ 9:07, 1080p MKV playback from a 500GB portable HDD with Dice Player to the HDTV @ 13:11)
kewl... But I am still waiting on one someone to get that freaking keyboard base in! lol.

[REVIEW] GameKlip - Phone Mount for PS3 Dualshock Controller

GameKlip Review:
I've been using the GameKlip for a few days now and here are my thoughts on it.
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with GameKlip in any way other than as a satisfied customer.
First some background:
The GameKlip was created by a gentleman named Ryan French, a student at the University of Washington. He makes GameKlips for many android phones including all Galaxy S3 variants, the Galaxy Nexus, the HTC Evo 4G and One X, a bunch of Galaxy S2 variants, and the Galaxy Note. He is also developing a tablet version of the GameKlip. The GameKlip comes in both a wireless and wired version. This review is of the wireless version. The wired version is identical except it includes a mini usb to micro usb cable to connect the phone to the PS3 controller.
I love to play games on my G Note but I hate on screen controls, so I've been using the SixAxis controller app (Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...5ncGl4ZWxzdHVkaW9zLnNpeGF4aXNjb250cm9sbGVyIl0.) and a PS3 dual shock controller for a while. The only drawback is I had to prop the Note up somehow, either leaning it against something or using a case with a kickstand. So when I came across the GameKlip, I ordered one right away. Here are my thoughts on the GameKlip for the Galaxy Note I717.
The Good:
The GameKlip is well made and fits both the PS3 controller and the Note well. The GameKlip is constructed of black plastic. It takes a bit of wrestling to get it onto the PS3 controller, but once on the controller, it fits perfectly and securely. The GameKlip doesn't interfere with any of the buttons or bumpers and it holds the Note at a comfortable viewing angle. There are pieces of felt attached to the end tabs to prevent scratching on the edges of the Note and keeps it snug in the GameKlip.
The Bad:
The size of the GameKlip seems a bit narrow based on how wide the Note is. What I mean by that, is not much of the Note actually fits into the GameKlip. The GameKlip could have been another quarter inch or so taller t allow more of the device to fit into the GameKlip. The Note fits securly into the bracket, but I would feel better if more of the Note was held in the GameKlip.
The location of the bottom tabs on the GameKlip interfere with the hardware buttons on the Note. For example, if the Note is inserted with the micro usb connector to the left, the bottom right tab hits the power button. Alternately, if the Note is installed with the micro usb connector to the right, the bottom left tab hits the volume rocker. It prevents the Note from being fully inserted into the GameKlip bracket, which would not be a big deal except for the depth of the bracket is pretty shallow, as I noted previously.
Overall
Despite the couple design issues that I noted above, I am very satisfied with the GameKlip. It completely solves an issue that I had with mobile gaming and I give a lot of credit to the creator for identifying a smartphone accessory need that wasn't being addressed, or at least not being addressed properly, and creating a product that meets that need.
I have been using the GameKlip every day for my mobile gaming since I received it, and I definitely recommend this product to other smartphone owners who enjoy mobile gaming but hate on screen controls. I especially recommend this product to fellow Note owners because the size of the screen on our Note lends itself so well to gaming.
The GameKlip is available at www.thegameklip.com for $15.00 (wireless) and $23.00 USD plus shipping.
I'd definitely be in for one if he could make one that can accommodate the Mugen extended battery cover.
I'd be all over this but it doesn't work if you use a case...
If we get this, should we be getting the wired version or can we do it wireless?
Wireless works w/ the "Sixaxis Controller" app.
Yep, confirmed that the original PS3 Sixaxis as well as the DualShock work very well using the Sixaxis Controller app. Well worth the $2. I'm ten times better at "Dead Trigger" now than I was before. :laugh:
GameKlip mod
I just emailed GameKlip and requested a GNote Klip w/o the side holders (leaving the bottom ones intact). IMO this would be the first step to a universal solution since you could (in theory) glue/velcro a phone case to the back... I'd pay for this. If GK won't do this I might buy it as is anyway and file the side holders down... Anyone see any pitfalls to this solution?
I'm in for one with the cable. I will let you guys know if the cable actually works or not, but I figured I could save some battery by keeping bluetooth off. That is if it works.

You need root for wireless.
The wired option is an OTG cable, and a USB -> Mini USB cable which is pre-zipped tied for neatness.
Even tho' I am rooted, for me, the wired version is worth the extra $8.
I thought I came up with an awesome invention when I thought of this last week. Somebody beat me to it. lol
i just ended up buying one
So buying one

I almost put that in the bullet points of my post above, but then I wondered if the controller will try to charge itself off of the Note's battery, so left it out.

To my knowledge the only way to charge a PS3 controller is either directly connected to a PS3, a PS3 controller dock, or laptop USB. Hadn't thought about it until now (I assumed it wasn't possible) but wired play would be good for me whenever I want to use my Bluetooth headphones while playing.

I got mine of Thursday, does exactly what it says on the tin. You cannot push the Note fully home as the lips that stop the phone from sliding through the bracket will end up pressing the volume up button in Landscape or the power button in reverse landscape. But it does hold the phone very securely.
By the looks of the PS3's LEDs (All four flash when charging), and by how fast my battery depleted, the USB OTG does charge the controller, so make sure that the controller is fully charged before you hook it up to the Note.
One complaint about some game developers...
If the game is played in Landscape. SUPPORT BOTH LANDSCAPE ORIENTATIONS!
I have the Samsung flip cover installed, so I have to place the phone in the GameKlip in reverse landscape, which some games, such as the Sonic games, do not support.
Can we get some profiles uploaded, I cant get mine to work. I could use a Deadtrigger ,GTA3 and Ashphalt 6 Profiles

I don't know about Deadtrigger (looking for that one myself), and Asphalt, but GTA3 works just like the PSone via SixAxis Controller for me.

Dead Trigger has gamepad support already, so there is no need to create a touch profile with the Sixaxis app. Make sure your controller is connected, then start the game. You should see a new gamepad option in the menus somewhere, and that will let you customize the controls.

Good but not too expensive Gamepad controller?

Hi guys.
as christmas is approaching i need to give my wife an idea what to get me so i thought about a new gamepad controller for my new note 3.
i have read generally positive reviews regarding MOGA and can see they have just released their power versions but they are expensive.
i thought about using a ps3 controller but i havent yet rooted the note 3 and dont plan to for a few months at least.
any suggestions are welcome.
I have the Moga Pro, and I like it pretty well. It works pretty well out of the box, and works as a HID controller too. I got mine at BestBuy for $40 when they had them on sale/clearance.
Pros:
- Solid quality: Doesn't feel as good as an OEM Xbox controller, but easily as good as any third party console controller.
- Rechargeable: Doesn't need disposable batteries.
- The phone holder fits even my Note 3 in a case!
- Probably has the best compatibility of any controller.
- Pairing is easy.
- Decent (but not great) Dpad.
- Analog sticks are solid, though slightly higher resistance would be better.
Cons:
- Big and bulky: Can't really carry it in my purse -_-
- Doesn't fit a very thick case (my case has a SlingGrip on it, and that makes it too thick)
- Probably not folio case friendly.
Skip the moga and get the moga pro at minimum. The moga hero power is awesome too but probably well out of your wanted budget.

I have a PS3, so I always use PS3 controllers with my Android devices. I just had to spend $20 on a GameKlip, $5 on a generic ebay case to tape to the GameKlip, then I was set! Makes it similar to playing the Nvidia Shield, except I have a .7" bigger display, 1080p instead of 720p, using a controller that I'm comfortable with and like the layout of, PLUS I can make phone calls and send texts with my setup!
If you like the button layout and already have a PS3 controller, then just get a GameKlip and cheap case. Since you're a member on XDA, I'm assuming you plan to root anyway. It really is a great setup! My Note 3 is the 3rd phone that I've used with this same GameKlip too, so it's very durable.
SwiftKey'ed from my White Sprint Note 3 via XDA Premium
PS3 a good option if you are a Root user, for sure. I've used it a lot over the last couple of years.
These days I'm just tending to use the Moga Pro (just ordered the new Power one), excellent if Root is not an option/not always an option.
cheers guys.
at some point i will root but not yet.
i saw they had released the moga power series. apart from size and design, are there any other differences between the hero power and pro power? such as compatibility differences, better/newer spec bluetooth on one or the other or anything like that. if not i wouldnt see much reason to spend the extra for the pro over the hero.
You should be good with the regular pro I think. The moga hero power is pretty good though but pricey. I don't see any reason to get the power pro unless you have money to blow and/or want the bigger battery. The 1800mah should be plenty in the moga hero. I say get the pro or wait for the hero to go on sale.
sent from my sm-9005.
Main advantage of the new Power one is that it can charge the phone from the controller while you play, which solves one of the major difficulties of on the go gaming on your phone.
Lol. The battery is much bigger in note3 than the 1800/2200mah batteries of the new power controllers. And they only output 460mah, maybe 500 not sure as I haven't checked. Maybe it worth it if you game heavily but then you probably run into dead controller.

This really is best if you dont already own one, root de la vega takes less than 30 seconds seriously..and it doesnt even trip the knox counter.

cheers guys and thanks for the help.
as mentioned though, for now at least, i wont be rooting. i'll wait 6 months until three uk's warranty period is over but also there may be root methods that are easier/wont effect flash counter/will work with the bootloader i'm now on that is apparently harder to root on (mj6).
the hero power did peak my interest and as long as it is the same internally to the pro apart from the battery size, i think i'd be happy with that.
any others worth noting at all?
thanks again.

i think you should get the regular pro or the hero power. i don't know battery size of the pro, and i don't think it's like regular moga with interchangeable which would've been preferable to me. the pro would be for the more serious gamer that needs better analog stick and something to grab. the hero power is for someone like me who used to be a hardcore gamer but is stuck in between casual and hardcore. do note that the hero power and power pro have two extra shoulder buttons and the analog stick have L3/R3 function which might be useful. and of course it's obvious the power pro has the serious analog sticks. really it comes down to price for you and you should be able to score the moga pro for $30-40 easily now. the hero power just came out and i'm sure it'll be a month or two before you see sub $50.

btw, enjoying my hero power a lot. works great for rpg's. haven't played a fps yet, but i'm sure it'll "get by". mike tyson's punch is challenging with the buttons being close together but i've started to acclimate to it. things are geting better.
PS3 controller really is the best because its comfortable and loads more versatile.
The downside?
Its bulky. Not really pocketable... but is decent enough to throw in a purse, a bag, or just in your car.
But why stop there?
Get the Datel TurboFire 2. Its rare but worth it. Its basically a DualShock3 controller (works with PS3, Sixaxis App, and PC's... they think its a PS3 controller) but its bigger so its more comfortable. Its got some grippy contours (meh). And its got a Turbo function.
Basically those games/apps that require you to spam a certain button many times... you can cheat through them by just holding a button while the controller imitates a constant really fast button pushing. Since its larger than DS3, its a little more bulky.... but I love mine.
(especially when converting a sniper into an assault rifle on Battlefield or Call of Duty)
He doesnt want to root his phone so ps3 controller is out of the question. The ps3 is a good option but uses MINI not micro USB, is bulky, gotta pay for the sixaxis app, battery life is not as good as moga, doesnt support hid. The upside to it though is the awesome mapping profiles for touch only games. That can't be beat. I haven't looked but hoping to find an app that does similar mapping profiles with moga controllers.
sent from my sm-9005.
i sent an email to Moga to see when the hero power would be available in the uk and they said for now it was only the US.
now i dont know whether to wait or look elsewhere.

IMHO the best controller for Android, esp Z Ultra and tablets

Just bought this fella a few days ago, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MUG3JPU/, and LOVE it. The silver buttons are pretty cheapy, but the buttons used for gaming (joysticks, d pad, shoulder buttons, etc) are VERY high quality. It grips my phone very securely, but its in the metallic Incipio case, havent tried without the case yet. Should still hold fine. Best things IMHO are that with the size of the Z Ultra, it is almost a perfect fit, just a cm away from looking like it was made for this phone, and the fact that the buttons are laid out like a PS3 controller.
It will fit a 10 inch tablet, as well, which is a plus (even though I just sold my Note 10.1 2014, and not just have an Onda 972 I havent used in over a year )
Attached a pretty horrible screenshot. Charging port is still easily accessible. Can even still use it like a phone in the gamepad, not like its THAT much *more* unwieldy haha
That looks so bulky. How is it for longer gaming sessions? IMO, the best controller would still be the official PS3 DS controller. :good:
Well yeah the Dualshock is better as far as controls go haha, but I dont have a stand for my Z Ultra and I dont like the screen being positioned in top of the controller so for me it isnt a consideration. In fact I bought this to replace using my Dualshock. I prefer the screen in the middle of the controller, PSP-style.
It really isnt that bulky when you hold it. my hands are average sized and its a comfy fit. For really long sessions it may get tiring, just because the phone itself weighs so much. Its about the size of a standard PC controller.
i like it alot
I bought this controller and I love it it can feet several tablet and it works great on emulators and some regular games

Telescopic gamepad

I usually use a Gamesir 3gs gamepad to play games on all my previous phones . However, with the sheer size and weight of mate 20 x, there is no way to fit it in the clip that comes with the gamepad : https://gamesir.hk/collections/gamepads/products/gamesir-g3s
I really wanted a telescopic gamepad like the Wee2 found here : https://www.amazon.com/Bounabay-Wireless-Telescopic-Bluetooth-Controller/dp/B06XKSNCTM

Not really much more than it always has. I've always used it with larger phones, so I probably don't notice it anymore. That said, I really like that Ipega controller you linked to.
I use the GameSir 4, but without the case, and it`s a little danger, can slip from the clip, need take care when moving
I finally found an answer here that ipega 9087 doesn't fit.
Maybe this one?
https://www.amazon.com/Controller-B...1&refRID=8PYH73DXSPTV56ZQNTV1#customerReviews
Any suggestions for a telescopic?
I have both iPega 9083 and Betop G1 controllers. My game of choice is is Rangers of Oblivion.
- I prefer the 9083 overall for combat due to the right-side controls, but as other users have said it it bulky and takes up more space in my bag. You also can't easily reprogram buttons to cater for games with non-native support for gamepads.
- the G1 on the other hand is small, light and easy to carry around and charge (USB-C). But the lack of 2-side controls makes combat harder due to lack of tactile feedback buttons. But on the other hand, you can use it for any game with it's own in-built software to program buttons.
I ordered the betop g1 cause of the app assistant , I think it will be easier to map buttons for games through a native app.
However I think that I will hate the fact that it is half a controller.
I can't understand why they didn't give us an option for a whole controller and whoever wanted could use half of the controller.
I'm sure I'll try to find a whole telescopic to fit which won't be as bulky as the 9083...
I finally found a Bluetooth controller that will accommodate the mate 20 x : http://glap.co.kr/en/index.php
Its the Glap controller designed in collaboration with Samsung. It can be seen in the ads for the note 10.
Though it's designed for Samsung phones, it can be used on any other android phone. Here is a video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nl30gMy9I4
The only thing holding me back is the price; starting at 80 dollars I have a hard time forking out the cash.
If anybody pulls the trigger let me know what you think.

I got one of these delivered today. Unfortunately with my Mate 20 X the controller is really laggy and goes crazy duplicating d-pad and button presses etc.
It also shows this same behaviour with my Nvidia shield TV but strangely NOT with my Mi Max 3... That device seems to function just fine. So it looks like certain devices won't be compatible.
It's disappointing, I was expecting a lot from the controller. Especially after buying an ipega 9083 and being disappointed by that one too.

Yeah it's really weird and unfortunate. I did email glap straight away but haven't had a response yet.
I bought mine from Amazon
https://www.amazon.co.uk/DRAGON-SLAY-Controller-Controllers-Compatible/dp/B07VFVZX4S/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?keywords=glap+controller&qid=1567751880&s=gateway&sprefix=glap&sr=8-1
EDIT: I'll just add as well that it really is a squeeze and takes a bit of fiddling to fit the 20X in this thing, it starts to bend ever so slightly. With my Mi Max 3, which is ever so slightly taller, it bends even more and I was really uncomfortable having it in the mechanism with the device bending so much.
The good point is that the analog sticks have really good precision and feel nearly as good as the Alps modules you find in the Xbox and DS4 pads. EVERY other extendable controller I've used has been garbage in that respect so I'm pretty gutted about the lag and button pressing issue

I had my hopes up with the deceptive advertising.
They state on the Glap website that the gamepad supports up to 7.5" devices, the Mate 20 x is only 7.2 with very slim bezels and yet still it can hardly fit. I don't see any 7.5 inch phone on the market that would fit.
Did you keep the case on?
Please update us when you get an answer from Glap, otherwise I think I'll settle for an xbox one controller with a clip.

I mean it fits but jeez, it's REALLY tight. I have to take the case off, it simply won't go in with it on.
Glap replied about 10 minutes ago but only to say they're passing it on to the technical team and that they'll get back to me with an answer.
I've got an Xbox controller and clip as well, in terms of the quality it's the best out there along with the DS4. I just wanted the extendable form factor and I've been after a decent one for ages.
