Unbeatable Price Drop on the Razer Kishi Ultra Controller
The Razer Kishi Ultra has just dropped in price, now available for $99.99, down from its typical price of $149.99, marking the lowest price recorded according to price monitoring tools.
Engineered primarily for Android devices and more recent iPhones with USB-C, the Kishi Ultra securely attaches to various devices ranging from 4.7 to 8.3 inches with its innovative spring mechanism. When held, it mimics the comfort of a full-sized Xbox controller with its ergonomic layout featuring offset analog sticks, substantial buttons, responsive bumpers, and analog triggers. While its broad shape may hinder portability compared to the Kishi V2 Pro, the comfort it offers for longer gaming sessions is substantial, especially for larger hands.
The controls on the Kishi Ultra deliver a responsive experience reminiscent of classic Xbox layouts, equipped with a generous D-pad, customizable L4 and R4 triggers, and optional RGB lighting for a visual flair. Furthermore, the inclusion of haptic feedback adds depth to gameplay experiences such as those found in Ultrakill. Additional conveniences such as a USB-C port for pass-through charging and a 3.5mm headphone jack enrich the user experience. For Android users, features like virtual controller compatibility for games not natively supporting control mapping (such as Genshin Impact) enhance versatility; however, iPhone users will not benefit from this. Plus, cloud gaming on iOS via Xbox Game Pass may require a workaround, affecting overall ease of access.
What are your thoughts on this product?
Despite some minor quirks, such as slight sensitivity in the analog triggers—particularly during precise acceleration in racing games—this controller provides an enjoyable mobile gaming experience close to console quality. Its larger size may limit compatibility with smaller bags, but it excels in delivering immersive gameplay. Notably, it can also function as a wired controller when connected to a PC via USB-C, offering even greater value.
