The Razer Kishi Ultra lifts the product line so high that they found themselves at heaven's door. So now we're stuck with this questionable marketing push of their "God-like" mobile controller... Let's review this thing -_-'

Thank you, so much! The section on the d-pad is exactly what I was waiting to hear. I know people scoff at the price and so do I, but given that none of these telescopic controllers have a good d-pad, I will pay $150 for this controller. I can't stress how desperate I am to find a controller with a good d-pad. Serviceable d-pads get you pass level 1 or 2 with retro games. After that, you're fighting the game and the controller. Great review!

@GameTechTalk 2 ай бұрын

You're in for a treat then. There is a bit of an adjustment curve for fighting games but for retro in general? Oh wow. I could game on that d-pad for HOURS without the shadow of a concern or discomfort. If/when you do get it, let me know your impressions, always nice to hear I'm not being crazy here! Cheers :)

The new ABXYLUTE telescopic controller looks VERY interesting depending, of course, on price point.

@GameTechTalk 2 ай бұрын

@@STR82DVD I've been scouring their discord and the main abxylute account hinted that they are going for very aggressive pricing. If I had to guess and reading through the lines, I'd expect 0-10$ more than Galileo G8 sale price (that is with the 40% off). So 80-90USD would be my educated guess.

The fact that they keep putting the extra buttons next to the triggers baffles me. It defeats the purpose of them when they interfere with any of the other standard buttons and triggers. They should just do back paddles, the only layout that makes sense for extra inputs

@GameTechTalk Ай бұрын

I also have a preference for back paddles but I think you highlight a "conflict" I had never put into words myself. To paraphrase, what you are saying is that trigger fingers should never have to leave them and that extra buttons are designed to assist with that. You do raise a good point that this hinders this very concept.

@terribletimes902 Ай бұрын

@@GameTechTalk Exactly, what makes back paddles so useful is that they use your middle fingers, which otherwise go unused. That makes them truly extra inputs cause they will never interfere with your other fingers. In this case, you either have to take your fingers off the trigger, or you’ll have to press both the M1/M2 button and the trigger next to it

Just as heads-up. This is a premium accessory, at a $150 price point. It does not work for the iPhone 15 Pro Max if you're using a Mous Limitless 5.0 phone case (another premium accessory, at a $70 price point). For anyone assuming their Mous case will just *work*, it won't.

Companion software development is also part of the cost of these devices especially on mobile phones where sometimes games do not have xinput support. Some controllers have really bad virtual on screen mapping. Hope you compare them in the future

My only problem with this one is the Bluetooth connectivity interferes with your actual cell phone signal to an iPhones will tell you that they’ll tell you there will be signal interference. You may not get the best performance out of it, which is true. I get a lot of lag here and there if I’m playing on Wi-Fi or cell phone because the signals interfere With each other so you’re gonna have a little more latency sometimes you’re actually lose connection between the Bluetooth in your phone just enough to kick you out of a game if your cloud gaming so a direct USBC connection is preferred

@GameTechTalk 10 күн бұрын

Interesting, I hadn't experienced that, I wonder if maybe a firmware update introduced this issue? I'll test later on with my iPhone and report back to you. It definitely does not have bluetooth, however, it's not impossible that it interferes with signal nonetheless. Quite frankly, if it does, I'd feel inclined to suggest there may be an electrical anomaly of some kind because if not for that, I don't understand how radio signal could be affected. I'll tune back in shortly.

@GameTechTalk 10 күн бұрын

I finished testing, it was done on an iPhone 15 Pro Max on iOS 17.5.1 . The Kishi Ultra is on firmware 1.0 and it didn't prompt me for an update. I had zero issues on my end, that is while plugged in to wi-fi 5Ghz from my home signal and with 2 bluetooth devices being connected (AirPods Pro 2 and Apple Watch). I tested three games and gamepad tester, everything went smooth and to be sure, I plugged the USB-C as well as headphones (wires can cause interference sometimes). I'm inclined to suggest that maybe your phone or your controller has an anomaly, do you have another USB-C controller to see if the problem repeats itself? It might be a faulty USB-C connector that causes electrical redundancies, that can also affect signal.

Just curious but can you mod this into like for ipad pro 11 inchor higher like the g8?

@GameTechTalk 2 ай бұрын

I haven't opened it but I'm pretty sure it uses ribbon cables and I've opened pretty much every other one under the sun, they all borrow the mechanic system that Backbone brought to the market, which was an improvement, yet very similar to what iPega did before. I also tried buying longer ribbon cables to extend these things and it doesn't work. So these designs are very much limited by the design they employ, something that the GameSir controller doesn't have with it's coil system. That's the major difference right there.

Is it good for shooting games? Does the joystick doesnt have delay when gaming?

@GameTechTalk 2 ай бұрын

The latency is extremely good, I have not experienced any delays, I do have intentions of doing proper benchmark of mobile controllers at some point but I would be extremely surprised if the Kishi Ultra doesn't rank amongst the highest in latency. It's costly but it's good, I can give it that merit.

I've only owned the Kishi V2 and did not like the controller at all from this company, it's still sitting on my shelf. I might have to give it to someone else to enjoy lol oh and this does look like an amazing controller however that price man I could buy a game and a snacks plus a cheap controller my oh my.

@GameTechTalk 2 ай бұрын

Take it from someone that also did not like the Kishi V2, not even a little bit, it was an insult to consumers if you ask me, the Kishi Ultra is leaps and bounds superior in comparison. Not even remotely close. They shouldn't even both have Kishi in their names. I'd like to tell you I'm exaggerating but I'm not. With that said, the Kishi Ultra still is overpriced in comparison to the Galileo G8 and I'd say, if you're not in a hurry, I'd recommend holding off for the abxylute s9 that should launch soon on Kickstarter. Here's hoping they won't take too long to ship to backers.

As mentioned during the video, I do not have a compatible iOS device to test with at this point so I wouldn't know but I can at least report that on everything else I tested (Android, PC, Steam Deck), the rumble worked just fine like any Series controller would. It also worked on PS Play on Android just fine. Are we talking about the rumble not working in Remote Play? Because if so, this may be a software limitation? Not the hardware itself but yeah, I'm sorry I can't help any further, I don't have the hardware to test this. Cheers! :)
