I just purchased the X2. It's definitely worth the cash... very responsive. Very easy to install, and the best part about it is the USB passthrough charging. With the S22 Ultra, it feels like you're holding a switch.

I loved my X2 but decided to send it back to Amazon, phone kept overheating playing gamecube/PS2 emulators....I've only got S9 but gonna wait for S23 Ultra & buy either the X3(fan) or by then maybe they'll have released an X3 Pro

Can you use comfortable the touchscreen instead of the joystick with the right hand to aim more accurately in FPS games?
@srvuk2 жыл бұрын
Indeed the fan is pointless in terms of real portability. No analogue triggers and again, no headphone jack. The replacement D-pad, buttons and caps is a nice touch, as is the case. On top of what are deal breakers out of the box for me though, we then have the ridiculous price. The backbone, new Razer Kishi and this are all coming in at around the same over inflated price point. There is a big hole in the market for somebody to come in with a better device and with more realistic value.

I believe the location permissions are a weird way in android to enable the full bluetooth featureset (I posted a link to the android developer infopage but I believe it got autoremoved). So maybe that is the reason. The reasoning behind that is that bluetooth scanning might be used for location tracking.
@ShravanParthasarathy2 жыл бұрын
yeah I'm developing apps and unfortunately having any Bluetooth functionality in your app will require location perms
@jonnyjaap2 жыл бұрын
Bluetooth connection belongs to location service (because it can be used to scan Bluetooth becons and determinen your location) but Google in its infinite wisdom makes it so you need to allow full location including GPS which you can not disable. This is super annoying and apps with legit reason to use Bluetooth can abuse the acces to precive location. On newer android you can allow permission for only one time, only when app open, or all the time but that doesn't help "old" android phones (2+ years)

I'm pro carrying case and fan (but then they really need to use more expensive materials to better transfer heat) . The analog covers are a nice touch. I'm so sick of seeing shitty $20 controller @ $100 price tag. Click is terrible, people will get angry with you on the bus or in the living room, etc. The pass through USB C needs to support data, charge speed, headphones (BT lag isn't it) . Analog triggers and good analog sticks. At bare minimum the controls need to be good, but they can't even do that right.
@AceAngelTTV26 күн бұрын
Yeah I think this is for couch/bed gaming- Sure you could carry a power brick in your pocket to use the fan anywhere. I mean, if you are a gamer there is LITERALLY no other choice, no other controller has a fan with actual buttons and not just to hold it.

They could have 2 port for optionon top and bottom of the device (not like the current one in the vid, that look janky af), but the problem here is that you need too put it in "Some way" to make the fan works is just lame, they could integrate the fan in some software thingy while the device is plug in and work in the software, but this hardware solution is a mess. imo that joystick diagnostics got me MALD, what's the point of a joystick if make a straight line so easy.
