Today we’re taking a look at the new Razer Kishi Xbox/Android Gaming Controller. This Android gamepad is Razer’s latest release into the Android gaming market and it doesn’t disappoint! This is now also the recommended controller for Xbox’s Project XCloud service. We know it works fine with Xbox Streaming (soon to be integrated as Xbox Game Pass) but how does it the question is though – how well does it feel or control?
The only difference with this version to the ‘official’ Xbox one is the logos on the Home, Start and Select buttons.
OK so it’s another expensive Android controller but I think you get what you pay for with this one.

Check out my review of the Moga PowerA XP5-A / XP5-X controller which Microsoft are also recommending for Game Pass: https://youtu.be/c7Q81YDGzbw
It’s compatible with Android phones on Android Oreo 8.0+ and with a USB C pot in the centre-bottom of your phone.
PS – The reason my controls scheme in Panda Gamepad Pro looks a bit messed up is because it was – if you change resolution after you’ve set up your controls then it will shift the position of your button mapping – rather annoying but I couldn’t be bothered to re-configure things 😅

Overall:
I think this is a fantastic purchase if you want a decent Android gaming controller. OK so you could go for a cheaper iPEGA controller but you’re not going to get the same quality. Like I said in the video review – the analogue sticks are fantastic – probably the best I’ve used on an Android gaming controller.
This should fit the Note 20 Ultra with no problem.

What about s22 ultra phone will it work with the razor kishi
Thanks for the video! Will the kishi work with a SNES emulator app?
I was thinking bout getting it but 80 is bit much. Is the 59.99 Xbox version work for android
I HAVE SAMSUNG GALAXY S20+ DO YOU THINK IT WILL WORK ON IT ?
Can it work with a phone case on?
I know this video is old and you might not reply but is it worth buying for call of duty mobile ? I've went ahead and ordered one before watching any reviews lol I have until 4pm with argos to change my mind 🙃
Does it work for s21 ultra
I think It sucks ass. Used it once and sold it immediately. Just use your Xbox controller people.
Can it use micro usb adapter for some other devices?
Its have vibration
Its . It's Have vibration
Does the samsung galaxy a21 will fit on it ?
how do you set up your pubg
Can anyone tell me if the s21 ultra fit ? Please i need to know before get it 🙏
I couldn't play COD mobile with Kishi. Do you know any applications to work this?
Does it work with PUBG? Please answer
Is it compatible with PUBG without connecting any other external controller?
Will it work with a21
Does samsung a51 5G work with this
anyone know if theres a controller like this one that will fit LG v60 6.8in screen?
It's safe to say this won't fit with an otterbox case then, darn.
a very happy tune to play while you're running pedestrians over in GTA haha
I've ordered this for my S10. But I'm worried the screen may feel too small
Does the razer kishi work with Huawei honor 10 lite?
I purchased it, here it cost $100 American dollars and tested it with emulators and Android games and it is compatible with almost the 90% of the Android Games, with the emulators I tried 5 of the most commons and it is 100% compatible.
Does the kishi controller work on a Samsung Galaxy a20???
I was so close to buying this controller but changed my mind and left the store I really do want to try it out tho but keep thinking wat if it's just a waste of money I can watch reviews but obviously it's not the same as trying it for urself
Can you only use it with x-cloud? Or can I play these game that I already have on my s20 Ultra?
I think Google should make a Stadia controller like this. It would bolster people’s interest in Stadia and Google could use that right now. I know this will work fine with Stadia and its just as good as a Stadia controller if not better (the dpad is better on the kishi vs. the official Stadia controller hands down) but I would like to see a Google version of this type of controller.
They are a pretty silly company that doesnt understand you could fit so many phones if you dont restrict the height. You dont make curved borders. I use my juglecats on a 9 inch tablet easily, just cut the case in two halves and paste them on any back. I will open these tomorrow and extend the ribbon cable
does the charging work while playing?..
Does anyone know if the Android version works with the Xbox app and xCloud?
