It does, however, look a little more distinct in its pink and purple colorway.

Certain adjustments can also be made using the configs and other buttons on the controller itself.

To game with, the N1 HD lives up to its promises.

Its a shame, however, that the triggers lack analog control when used with a PC or mobile.

Mobapad only lists USD prices on its website, but it does ship worldwide.

However, it doesnt have NFC support, so it cant be used with Amiibo accessories.

And if you’re a fan of thebest PS5 controllers, then it might not be for you either.

Despite its unsubstantial weight, it feels well constructed, with durable, premium-feeling plastics.

The textured grips are a welcome touch too.

The analog sticks are a highlight, with treaded edges to help improve grip, which they certainly do.

There are also two extra back buttons for customizable programming.

Currently, its not compatible with Mobapads PC software, but support is expected after March.

Mobapad N1 HD review: performance

The N1 HD performs well.

The face buttons are satisfying to use, with a good deal of accuracy and responsiveness.

Its also easy to roll for quick consecutive inputs with either the circular or four-pronged hat installed.

Even more damped are the shoulder buttons, which have a softer feel but still provide a responsive input.

The analog sticks utilize Hall effect technology, which purportedly offers greater precision as well as preventing stick drift.

The N1 HD also supports motion controls, and again I found these accurate, tracking superbly.

Connecting the N1 HD to your platform of choice is also very easy.

Once paired, using the N1 HD with my phone was as easy and responsive as with other platforms.

We found it comfortable to hold and were taken by its excellent D-pad.

And although its original price is relatively high, it can often be found at a discount.

It also comes with its own charging dock, which is very convenient.

I tried to use it on two Android phones but failed to connect with either.
