    A normal controller costs 60 bucks usually… so why does this cost almost 3x as much? Pass for me until they drop the price, that’s ridiculous.

      Because it's hard to hold a phone and separate controller at the same time. Or people want it portable and not have to stand their phone or tablet up on a surface. Three times the price does seem high, but there's definitely a market for it. I'd love to use this with my smaller Android tablet. The main reason I don't play games on my tablet more is having to prop it up and use a separate controller.

      The guy is completely right, for that price it is ABSURD. With this high price, I would invest in a Nintendo Switch, or another portable console, which are the best on the market. Buying a controller just to play a few good mobile games doesn't make much sense... because the rest 80% are no good.​@@DCGX

      @blake3120 This control is very reminiscent of the edges of my BSP D8 which costs 7 times less and delivers current things.

      @@iGoor-yf8sr isn't that part of the point though? For people that only play a few mobile games or touch based games, this doesn't make sense. But that's not who this product is for. This is for people that play a lot of console like games on their phone or tablets. And I agreed the price is too high. Especially in Canada.

    Based on what you said,i n my opinion the biggest use/benefit/value that this device has it that you can use it as a PC controller (generally if you don't already have one), while _also_ being able to use it with mobiles. Maybe other mobile controllers have that. If it wasn't for that it seems like an excessively-pricey luxury that most people couldn't really afford.
    It's still a pricey luxury that most people probably wouldn't/couldn't get, but it makes it much more reasonable cost-wise for PC gamers that need a new controller or don't have one yet.

      It’s the flexibility, the build quality, the haptics, the RGB lighting, the materials and the Razer brand that set this price where it’s at. They make cool, pricey things. This is akin to the DualSense Edge for mobile players. It’s exceedingly comfortable. I literally forgot I was playing on my phone.

    Before I ended up getting the Backbone One v2, I was looking at a very similar controller to this Razer called the ELO Vagabond. That thing looks amazing, but it’s been stuck in some kind of Kickstarter development for months / years, and whether it ever sees the light of day is questionable.
    I’m super happy to see that Razer is continuing to put out these devices because I think it’s a really cool hardware segment. This probably would’ve got my dollars a few months ago if it had been available when I was looking.
