The PXN P5: A Universal Controller for All Your Devices?
PXN has launched the P5, a universal controller promising compatibility across a wide range of devices. This ambitious controller aims to bridge the gap between consoles, PCs, and even cars, but will it live up to the hype?
Mobile gaming often lacks the innovative controller options it deserves. While snap-on controllers exist, true cross-compatibility remains limited, typically relying on Bluetooth. The PXN P5 aims to change this, boasting compatibility with everything from the Nintendo Switch to in-car entertainment systems and, notably, mobile devices.
Packed with features like Dual Hall-effect magnetic joysticks and adjustable trigger sensitivity, the P5 is designed for versatility. It will be available on PXN and Amazon for £29.99.
Cross-Platform Compatibility: A Bold Claim
PXN is a relatively unknown brand in the gaming controller market. However, the market for truly cross-compatible mobile controllers is underserved, despite a lack of innovation in smartphone-specific controllers.
The P5's compatibility with Tesla is particularly noteworthy, suggesting a niche market of in-car gamers. While this expands the controller's potential user base, it also raises questions about its overall appeal.
For those looking to explore mobile gaming more deeply, streaming might be a worthwhile alternative. Check out our review of the Wavo POD Streamer Set for a potential solution.
