The PXN P5: A Universal Controller for All Your Gaming Needs?
PXN is launching the P5, a universal controller aiming for compatibility across various platforms. This ambitious device promises support for consoles, PCs, and even cars, but will it live up to the hype?
Mobile gaming often gets overlooked in controller innovation, despite its popularity. While snap-on controllers exist, true cross-compatibility remains limited. The PXN P5 aims to change that, boasting compatibility with a wide range of devices.
Marketing highlights include dual Hall-effect magnetic joysticks and adjustable trigger sensitivity. The controller will retail for £29.99 on PXN and Amazon. Supported platforms include PC, Mac, iOS, Android, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, Android TV, and surprisingly, Tesla.
Universal Appeal?
PXN is a relatively unknown brand in the gaming controller market. However, the market for cross-compatible mobile controllers is competitive, even if dedicated smartphone controllers are somewhat lacking.
The P5's Tesla compatibility is a unique and unexpected feature. While its practicality may be questionable for most, it certainly highlights the controller's broad reach.
