Ever found yourself frustrated with touchscreen controls while playing a demanding mobile game? Whether it's a fast-paced shooter or a retro platformer, Acer understands your struggle. Their newly launched Nitro Mobile Gaming Controller (NGR400) is now available at Very.co.uk, and you can take advantage of a limited-time launch offer until April 20th.
If you're after a more tactile gaming experience without the hassle of compatibility issues, the Nitro Mobile Gaming Controller is a solid choice. With its console-style layout, including dual analogue sticks, responsive face buttons, a D-pad, and shoulder buttons, all housed in a foldable body, it's designed for gamers on the go.
The controller connects via Bluetooth and features pass-through charging with 18W fast charging support. This means you can keep your phone powered up while you're immersed in quests or waiting for your next PvP match.
It's compatible with Android 9.0 and up, as well as the iPhone 15 series, thanks to its USB-C connection. The controller also comes with adjustable grips and padding to accommodate most phone sizes—even if you prefer to keep your case on.

The design is sleek and aligns with Acer's Nitro branding, featuring a mostly matte black finish with subtle red accents. It's not overly flashy but exudes a serious mobile gamer vibe. While mobile controllers are not a new concept, they have evolved significantly, and the Nitro aims to strike a balance between convenience and performance.
If you're considering upgrading your mobile gaming setup without breaking the bank, the introductory offer at Very makes this an opportune time to grab the Acer Nitro Mobile Gaming Controller. It's available for £49.99 until Easter, after which the price will increase to £69.99.
