When it comes to the other mobile gaming controllers I’ve reviewed so far here on BTTR, they all feel very much like accessories for your smartphone.

But the Razer Kishi Ultra? This is different. It feels like a proper console controller, that just happens to use your smartphone. And that makes all the difference.

With its solid build, integrated haptics, and satisfying button clicks, the Kishi Ultra aims to deliver a premium gaming experience on your smartphone or tablet. But does it live up to the hype? Let's have a proper look.
