A few weeks after its U.S. release, the Nacon MG-X Pro debuts in Europe as of today. This marks Nacon's second mobile gaming peripheral designed with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate in mind; the first being the Nacon MG-X. Like the latter, the MG-X Pro pairs to Android phones over a Bluetooth connection and bears the traditional Xbox controller layout. The main difference is the integrated handgrip for added comfort (and hopefully better trigger and shoulder buttons as pointed out in the MG-X's review).

​

More details about the Nacon MG-X Pro features are as follows:

• The Xbox experience wherever you are: Designed for Xbox mobile holder, ideal to enjoy the Game Pass Ultimate offer or play any other compatible mobile game.
• Ergonomic handles: Fitting all hand sizes and ensuring optimal comfort thanks to its textured coating.
• Fully secured: Adjustable opening securely holds the smartphone for maximum stability.
• Wireless connection: Easy pairing of the smartphone to the MG-X Pro with Bluetooth 4.2.
• 20hours life-time: Built-in rechargeable battery with USB-C input, (charging cable included), offering long hours of gaming when travelling. Check on the battery status with the LED indicator.
• Universal compatibility: Works with all Android smartphones equipped with Android 6 and later systems, up to 6.7 inches (152.4 mm) screens.

The Nacon MG-X Pro is now available at a recommended retail price of £89.99 / €99.90. Since it marks the company's second mobile controller in less than a year, it indicates that larger peripheral manufacturers are eyeing mobile gaming. Hopefully they bring along new innovations and better quality products to this market.

looks great.. it actually looks a bit better then BACKBONE ONE.. the issue I had With BackBone was that my phone screen is not big enough., I find Switch/lite is the smallest I personally think is smallest I go... so Unless you have a XL phone its a hard sale.

There will never be a "perfect" controller for mobile gaming. I can get Bluetooth controllers for my S21 Ultra... But most of the USB C controllers either barely hold my phone or require some weird configuration to use it. So close.

This looks freaking massive. Might dwarf the Steam Deck with certain phones.

I have a PS Vita (7" wide), and a reservation for a Steam Deck, and goddamn if that SD doesn't sound a lot bigger than a Vita. I'm actually kinda worried about how big that fucking thing is. It's not going to fit in my pocket, I think.

would it ever fit an iPhone?

Definitely won't fit in your pocket, Steam Deck is larger than a Switch. That said, it's also smaller and better for gaming than any laptop, and people carry those around without issue all the time.

Well, I don't think you need to transport it attached to the phone all the time?
Making a call with the gamepad attached would draw attention, that's for sure....

Looks like regular Kishi to me.
