The Razer Kishi V2 Pro is compact and light, yet it features bonus pro controls.
At £130, the Razer Kishi V2 Pro is one of the most expensive mobile game controllers of its kind.
Final Thoughts
The Razer Kishi V2 Pro takes aim squarely at the imperious BackBone One, with a similarly compact and tidy mobile controller design and additional physical controls. However, neither its hardware nor its software feels quite as premium, which wouldn’t be too much of an issue but for a much higher asking price. Meanwhile, though I appreciate the novel audio-based haptic feedback option, the results aren’t especially satisfying. If you can find it on offer, or you insist on a combination of portability and additional physical controls, it remains a more than solid pick.
