Razer Kishi V2 review: Just as good as the Backbone | Digital Trends

Razer Kishi V2 MSRP $99.99 Score Details DT Recommended Product “The Razer Kishi V2 mostly just mimics Backbone's design, but that's what makes it a great mobile gaming controller.” Pros Cons Like it or not, console-quality mobile gaming is on the rise.

No more stretching and squashing The original Razer Kishi was an excellent mobile gaming controller, but it could be a pain to insert your phone into it. You had to hold down release latches so a stretchable support band could floppily fall back before you could insert the phone into the controller. It was a hassle to stretch out and squash back into place once you took the phone out.

Buttoned up Regarding button layout and feel, the Razer Kishi V2 isn’t too dissimilar from the original Razer Kishi, but makes some key improvements. The microswitch face buttons and the D-pad feel much more satisfying to click and use than on the original Razer Kishi. While the D-pad still isn’t quite as good as the one on the Xbox Series X controller, this is undoubtedly one of the best third-party controller D-pads I’ve ever felt.

Technically, I can remap these buttons, but it doesn’t take away from the fact that this is a frustrating ergonomic design choice that could’ve easily been solved by flipping these two buttons. In its current state, the Razer Nexus app isn’t that useful unless you have many games installed on your phone and haven’t grouped them all together. Still, as it’s free to use and is needed to remap button controls, it’s worth installing if you have a Razer Kishi V2.

Whether you’re playing natively on your phone or through the cloud, the Razer Kishi V2 is a useful mobile gaming controller. It’s exceptionally well-built too, so I don’t expect the wear and tear that comes with frequent controller use to set in for quite some time.

It’s called V2 and they copied the thing that came after their V1? 👀
