Design

With its ergonomic feel and familiar button configuration, it actually looks like an XBox 360 controller.

Although it’s made from plastic, it feels solid and well built.

the Controller SMRT lock, with clamps fitted with a sticky rubber –like substance, can securely accommodate small phones (like the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact – at 4.3 inches) to bigger phablets (like the Starmobile X1 – at 6 inches).

Performance

First person shooters (i.e. Dead Trigger 2) and dungeon crawler RPGs (i.e. Dungeon Hunter 4) immensely benefit from this device. As you no longer have to rely on on-screen controls, you can see the battle field in all its glory. This also assists you make quicker decisions on the fly, helping you enjoy the games better.

For those who are used to on-screen controls, you may initially have some difficulty with the accuracy. Fortunately, the learning curve is not steep. You could master the controls in under an hour of continuous play.

Battery

The full-sized USB port allows the Moga Pro Power to power external devices. The internal battery’s capacity isn’t much, but it can be very useful if you don’t have a phone charger handy.

With its 2,200mAh battery, the Moga Pro Power can easily last a week on casual gaming. But this can be reduced to 3 days or less if you play for about 4 hours a day, and occasionally use it to charge the phone.

Connecting with the controller

Connecting your device with the Moga Pro Power is very easy. Just install the Moga Pivot App (available in Play Store), switch on the controller, run the Moga Pivot App (which turns your device’s Bluetooth on and pairs it with the controller), and you’re good to go.



Conclusion

The Moga Pro Power did indeed transform my Android devices into “mobile gaming systems with its precision controls and console-style comfort.” The controller certainly makes gaming on your Android device more addictive than usual. In fact, what used to be minutes of casual gaming turned into a couple of hours of daily hardcore play.

If you have Php4,490 to spare and are a serious gamer (or are interested in maximizing the gaming potential of your Android device), this is definitely a good buy (see listing on Widget City here).

– Solid build
– Ability to charge your phone like a power bank
