For many years, Apple and Xbox didn’t see eye to eye. Consequently, when Game Pass and Cloud gaming were invented, only Android users got a look in. Understandably, this was a big risk, as mobile gaming is now a huge market. Accordingly, the hostile walls have dropped, and manufacturers are now accommodating the latest iPhone models in their plans. As such, Nacon has released an updated version of its MG-X Pro controller. Now, Apple users can purchase the MG-X Pro Made For iPhone.
I reviewed the Android version of this wonderful device and loved everything about it. Its ergonomic design is comfortable for extended gaming sessions, and it has a battery life to match. Furthermore, the responsive inputs and excellent analogue design ensure that you’ll easily keep up with your competition. However, word of warning, it has no pass-through charging, nor does it have an audio jack. Consequently, you’ll need a charged phone and wireless headphones to get the most out of this device.
