Razer Raiju Mobile: Ergonomic Multi-Function Button Layout - Hair Trigger Mode - Adjustable Phone Mount - Mobile Gaming Controller for Android

Over the last few months, I have tried many different gaming controllers to use with my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. I have used the device for a month now and this thing still impresses me!The mount is very sturdy and Razer had the forethought of putting groves in the grips so it doesn't clamp down the volume rocker or power buttons on either side of your phone! Many manufacters overlook this or get around it by gripping the phone on the sides, making the charging port inaccessible. Because of this, you can still plug in a USB-C cable for wired connection, but I have not had to use it due to the ultra-low input latency! It performs like a Nintendo Switch Pro controller in this regard.I have only had the controller become inresponsive twice. I turned it off and back on and haven't seen it since the first week. I can't tell if the compantion app from Razer pushed an update or not, but either way, this thing is fantastic!The controller is very comfortable to use with pretty solid anti-slip grips around the handles. The hair-trigger locks are fantastic. I would have rather seen the underside buttons re-designed to avoid accidental clicks when picking up the controller, but that is a very small issue. Some games don't recognize the middle triggers or rear trigger buttons as separate buttons, but it was nice to repurpose them using the mobile app to control the volume. The navigation buttons at the bottom come in very handy for using the phone from the home screen as well! The only thing missing is a carrying case or a collapsable stand on the rear. For the asking price, I think these features should have been included, but I will say the grip is more important, considering the sturdy construction and ability to tilt forward to combat any light glare.I could go on and on about this controller, but I will close by saying you will not be sorry about this purchase! I was not paid for this review and purchased the device with my own money.

Tl;dr highly recommend, would buy again.Before this controller I was using a Scuf and with in the first couple months I had broken a pad, the hair trigger wouldn’t stay in place and now my L3 won’t work right and my dpad sometimes works and my L1 doesn’t work all the time. Now I have the Razor Raiju and this thing feels sturdy! It’s bigger than a PS4 controller, I thought i wouldn’t like it but it feels so right in my hands. The mapping is super easy, the hair trigger controls are perfect. I’m using all 4 mapping triggers, again I didn’t think I’d like it, worried the top triggers would be to much of a cluster... Nope! They are placed perfectly and allows me to never Take my thumbs off the sticks just have to get used to not needing to hit the buttons, even though I love the crisp click they make! Seriously you’ll know what I’m talking about when you get this beaut! Ps it’s not a loud clicking Incase your worried about that. So far this hasn’t let me down! Can’t speak highly enough about it.

I bought this primarily for use on Android, to use with Steam Link / Steam remote play.TLDR: For the features provided, the price is a steal! But because the product is discontinued, the advanced features (like button remapping) are unavailable and you won't get any warrantied support.Pros: The default / out-of-box features work well. Supports USB and Bluetooth (x2) for both PC and Android, with no drivers needed. Controller is recognized as a standard Xinput controller, with PC drivers available from Razer support site if needed. Responsive buttons and good ergonomics. In terms of features for the price, this device seems too good to be true...Cons: The price is so low for a reason. As of 2023, the product seems to be discontinued, and they are selling off remaining inventory. Advanced features like button remapping require a "Razer Raiju Mobile" companion app, which is no longer available in the Play store. The newer "Razer Controller" app does NOT recognize or pair with the Raiju Mobile controller (confusingly, it supports other Raiju controller variants but NOT the Raiju Mobile).What this means is that as of 2023, there is no way to remap any buttons, including the custom ones. By default the M1/M2 buttons will forever be set as an extra A and X, and the M3/M4 grip buttons will not be usable unless a game lets you map them directly. Support for the select/back/home buttons varies by game as well. Due to end-of-support, your warranty is considered expired from day 1 (I checked).Neutral: I also have a Razer Kishi, which is a split controller that grips either end of the phone like a Nintendo Switch. It gives you better balance, at the cost of cramped controls. With the Raiju-style controller, you trade comfy controls for awkward balance- which can be addressed by resting your arms in your lap or on a table. I wish they had a way to remap buttons directly on the controller itself, like many other models do. It would have removed the need for a companion app entirely.Overall: If you are just looking for a standard Xinput controller with the standard Xbox button layout and lots of connectivity options, this controller does the job at a killer price. If you are looking for advanced features like button remapping, look elsewhere- because those features are no longer supported, despite whatever you see on the product page.
