It’s no Razer Edge 5G, but this innovative smartphone game controller has a built-in gimbal for a more immersive experience when playing racing and shooter games. Players will be able to easily switch between three modes: Target, Pilot and Classic. The former lets you hold the controller like a firearm, while the second makes use of the gimbal to turn the controller into a steering wheel of sorts.



If you’re not playing either racing or shooter game, the Classic mode has the smartphone positioned in a more normal configuration for maximum comfort. Switching between modes involves either rotating the control handles inn opposite directions (Target) or pressing the top shoulder buttons (Pilot). The Classic mode can be used directly after mounting the smartphone using the magnetic attachment.
