Set up for a gaming session on your mobile phone, then move to a PC or compatible console with the Mars Gaming MGPX. Its built-in holder fits phones up to 6.8", keeping the screen in place while you play.

Bluetooth 5.0 gives you a wireless way to play, while USB-C provides a connection option for PC and consoles. The controller also offers up to 8 hours of use on a charge.

Want one gamepad for mobile and home gaming? The MGPX combines a phone holder with dual vibration, Neon RGB lighting and a turbo function, so you can choose a setup that suits the game.

Everyday use

For mobile play, fit a phone up to 6.8" in the holder and connect the controller over Bluetooth. The arrangement is useful for gaming at home or taking your mobile setup with you, and the included carrying pouch makes it easier to store and transport the gamepad. If you play through cloud gaming or console remote-play apps, you can use your phone as the screen and keep control in your hands.

At a desk, connect to a PC or console using USB-C. The MGPX is listed as compatible with PS4, PS3, Switch, PC, Android and iOS 13.0 or later. Switch 2 use requires a firmware update. For Android, the configuration app lets you adjust buttons, sticks and triggers to your playstyle. Dual vibration adds physical feedback during play, while the turbo function is designed for quick, repeated inputs, Neon RGB rainbow lighting brings a distinct look to the setup.

Why it makes sense

The MGPX brings the phone holder and controller together, instead of asking you to assemble a mobile setup from separate pieces. That makes it a practical fit for someone who switches between phone gaming and a PC or compatible console, or who wants to use remote-play apps for PS4/PS5 or Xbox games on a phone. Those console games are accessed through the relevant remote-play apps, the controller’s listed console compatibility is PS4, PS3 and Switch.

Buyers praise the gamepad’s quality, while feedback on reliability is mixed: some say it works well, and others report that their controller did not start. The listed features still make its intended use clear: mobile play with a secured phone, or controller gaming via Bluetooth or USB-C. For Switch 2, install the required firmware update before use.

Final verdict

It suits you if you want a single controller for mobile sessions and supported PC or console play, with the phone holder already part of the design. Bluetooth 5.0, USB-C, up to 8 hours of use and the included carry pouch give you flexible ways to play and pack it away, while vibration, turbo and RGB lighting add features for a more tailored gaming setup.
