I recently got into mobile gaming — here’s what’s in my setup right now that makes it even more enjoyable
The arrival of The Division: Resurgence earlier this year — a game in one of my favorite series — pulled me into mobile gaming hard.
I soon began building the perfect mobile gaming setup to meet my needs, but also to make sure I enhanced and made my small-screen experience as optimal and as enjoyable as possible. That’s where the kit below came in, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.
Adding dedicated gaming gear, where appropriate, has made the world of difference and augmented my gaming on mobile. This all starts with a dedicated, powerful phone; I was lucky enough to find an ASUS Rog Phone 8 Pro in one of the TechRadar cupboards which is perfect, but you can’t buy it now — so I’ve included the most recent version of that phone below instead.
Otherwise it’s all there, just as I use it. While the DualSense and mobile phone controller are good in some scenarios, I love the fact that I finally found a mobile controller for my different hands in the form of the Nacon MG-X Pro. Audio-wise, I was fortunate enough to have some high-profile SteelSeries gear to hand, and that’s stayed with my setup due to the excellent connectivity and portability the buds and headset offer.
Having tested gaming gear, and spent hours whittling my mobile gaming gear down to the stuff below, you might find that some of it is exactly what you’re looking for too.
