Mobile gaming no longer has to mean relying on a phone’s touchscreen for every game. GXTrust Rovix Bluetooth Wireless Mobile Gaming Controller has been launched, giving iPhone and Android users a more traditional way to play games while traveling, commuting, or simply relaxing at home.

The GXTrust Rovix connects to smartphones through Bluetooth 5.0 and is designed to work with controller-supported iOS and Android games. It can also be used for cloud gaming, including PlayStation and Xbox titles, while PC game streaming lets users access their computer games directly from a phone.

Hall Effect Controls and Extra Buttons

A major feature of the GXTrust Rovix is its use of Hall effect joysticks and pressure-sensitive Hall effect triggers. These controls are designed to offer accurate input and avoid the stick drift issues that can affect conventional analog sticks over time. The controller also has 20 responsive buttons, including two programmable buttons on the back that can give players additional controls during gameplay.

This setup makes the Rovix more suitable for games that require quick and precise inputs. Instead of constantly reaching for touchscreen controls, players can use physical sticks, triggers, and buttons in a layout closer to what they would expect from a traditional gaming controller.

Built for Gaming on the Go

GXTrust has also designed the Rovix around portability. The controller comes with a rubberized, spring-loaded phone clamp that is built to hold smartphones securely while playing. Since the phone sits directly in the controller, players can carry a setup that is much closer to a handheld gaming device without needing a separate screen.

A built-in rechargeable battery provides up to 12 hours of playtime, according to GXTrust. That should be enough for extended gaming sessions without needing to constantly recharge the controller, making it particularly useful for travel and longer periods away from home.

Customization and Price

The GXTrust Rovix also gives users a few ways to personalize the controller. GXTrust includes two pairs of swappable magnetic faceplates, while the D-pad can also be changed depending on the player’s preferred style and feel. A protective hard case is included as well, which should make carrying the controller safer when traveling.

The GXTrust Rovix Bluetooth Wireless Mobile Gaming Controller is available now with an RRP of €59.99. With Hall effect controls, programmable rear buttons, wireless connectivity, a 12-hour battery, and support for both Android and iPhone, GXTrust is positioning the Rovix as a flexible option for mobile gamers who want a more console-like experience from their smartphone.

Razer has introduced the Razer Prio, a new foldable gaming controller built for iPhone and Android users who want console-style controls without carrying a full-size gamepad.

The compact controller is designed to make mobile gaming easier while traveling, commuting, or simply playing away from home. It folds into a small package that can fit in a pocket, but opens into a larger controller with a complete set of gaming controls.

Razer Prio Folds Down for Easy Carrying

The biggest attraction of the Razer Prio is its unusual foldable design. When folded, it measures 107 x 67 x 23 mm and weighs just 101 grams, making it small enough to carry with a phone without adding much weight.

Once opened, the Prio provides a full controller layout with low-profile analog sticks, a four-way D-pad, face buttons, bumpers, and triggers. It supports smartphones up to 7 inches, including the iPhone 17 Pro Max and Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.

The design is aimed at people who want proper physical controls but do not want to carry a traditional controller everywhere. Razer says the flexible setup can also work with most slim to medium phone cases.

Capacitive Sticks and Direct USB-C Connection

Razer has equipped the Prio with capacitive analog thumbsticks, which the company says are designed to reduce the risk of stick drift. Unlike traditional sticks that use physical contacts, the capacitive system detects movement without relying on those contacts.

The controller also connects directly to a compatible smartphone through USB-C. There is no Bluetooth pairing process and no separate controller battery that needs to be charged.

That wired connection is particularly useful for gaming where quick input response matters. The Prio also has silent tactile face buttons, giving players physical feedback without making as much noise in places such as buses, waiting rooms, or classrooms.

Built for Mobile Gaming and Remote Play

The Razer Prio supports iOS 18 and newer on compatible iPhones, along with Android 14 or later. It can be used for regular mobile games as well as several game streaming and remote-play services.

Supported options include Xbox Cloud Gaming, Steam Link, PS Remote Play, and Razer PC Remote Play.

Razer has also added a dedicated Razer Cortex Mobile button for quick access to the game library. Users can connect Razer Cortex Mobile with Razer Cortex on PC to access their PC games through Razer’s remote-play setup.

Overall, the Razer Prio takes a simple approach to mobile gaming. Instead of making users choose between portability and proper controls, it uses a foldable design to offer both. Its lightweight body, USB-C connection, capacitive sticks, and support for major mobile and remote-play platforms make it a practical new option for gamers who want to play anywhere without carrying a bulky controller.
