If you’ve ever tried tackling a fast-paced mobile game, like a shooter or a retro platformer, you know the frustration of touchscreen controls all too well. Acer understands this challenge and has introduced the Nitro Mobile Gaming Controller (NGR400), now available at Very.co.uk with a special limited-time discount until April 20th.
This controller is designed for gamers seeking a more tactile experience without the hassle of compatibility issues. It boasts a familiar console-style layout with dual analogue sticks, responsive face buttons, a D-pad, and shoulder buttons, all encased in a foldable, portable body that's perfect for on-the-go gaming.
Connecting via Bluetooth, the Nitro also features pass-through charging with support for 18W fast charging. This means you can keep your device powered up while diving into quests or waiting for your next PvP match.
The controller is compatible with devices running Android 9.0 and above, as well as the iPhone 15 series, thanks to its USB-C connection. It also comes with adjustable grips and padding, accommodating most phone sizes, even if you prefer to keep your case on.
