Our take on the MCON

The MCON is a magnetic mobile game controller that snaps onto MagSafe phones and props up for tabletop play with its Kickback Mode. It uses full-size TMR joysticks, Hall-effect triggers and tactile buttons, and includes an adapter for non-MagSafe phones and cases. It is the most compact controller of its kind, trading the clamps and bulk of rivals like the Backbone One for a magnetic mount. With a 4.8 average from 774 ratings, owners rate it highly, though the MagSafe-first design and small grips are the usual sticking points.
