Got the Black one, with accessories. Great first gen product.

Pros:The build quality is really good. The bumpers feel way better and way clickier than they look. The triggers also feel better than they looked before I got this product. Pouch for bag is more premium feeling than I expected. The TV Docking Station is case friendly when it comes to my phone, so that's great. Cons, or constructive criticism and hopes for future iterations of this product:The Keychain hdmi connecter is fundamentally flawed. Let me explain. It needs an extra USB C port to charge the phone while connected to the TV. You can connect it just fine, but you're relying on the phone battery to not tank. Missed opportunity, ultimately I will not use because I would rather just play handheld where I can have it charging at the same time, or connect it to the full dock. The key adapter is a brilliant idea, but a flawed execution in my opinion. As for flaws with the mcon itself. Sometimes it closes wrongly and the buttons press and it doesn't turn off. I don't know why this happens, but if it happens I just re-open it and close it again and it's typically fine. If you look, you can see the top plate kinda diagonal when this happens. Additionally, maybe just a preference but I would like for the all-the-way-out position for the grips to have the same strong lock as the 'default' position. Yes, the default position you can hold the tips and it will support the full weight of the phone, but the all the way out position... a little weaker. Not terrible, but sometimes the grips slip back into default position, which I think is less ergonomic. You just gotta quickly pull it back to where you want it, but still an inconvenience. Last thing is that I would like a bigger model to match the size of the bigger phones mainly because the Joysticks, while very high quality, are super small, and I question my accuracy in FPS games with them. Maybe you can make those bigger with a mcon pro max or whatever. Either way, I except these flaws and whatnot, because for a first Gen product from one ambitious man... this is extremely impressive. It feels very premium. This dramatically improves my gaming experience because I love going hiking and randomly playing games out and about, and as much as I love the steam deck, lugging that around can be a chore... but yeah, awesome. I'm glad I supported him, and I eagerly await future iterations.

BLACK COLOR EASILY SCRATCHES.
on January 17, 2026
Posted by: Buyer
from US
My first day, I have my MCON, and already some tiny scratch near the face buttons. Can make clear visible scratch with you finger nail. Should be a warning or something, should be a clear frost black version. Bet it wouldn’t scratch. Very annoying and high price item for it to scratch so easy. Wish I had the transparent version or white at this point. Should be a warning.

Works with foldables
on January 13, 2026

I reccomend a case with a magsafe ring, or any case since it does come with an adhesive metal ring thats compatible with the mcon mounting puck, but nonce you get it on its great. Especially fun to emulate older games that originally rendered in 4:3 on a z-fold, instead of fiddling with hacks or mods to enable widescreen

Fits like a glove

Received mine a week or so ago, absolutely love it. Works great with my Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, and the controller is surprisingly a great size and fit for my XL bear paws that I call hands.

4.5 Stars! Only 1 complaint!
on January 13, 2026

Absolutely love my MCON and what it does. Connects easy. Is extremely pocketable. Stays charged for long gaming sessions. Feels good in hand. The only complaint I have. The bottom of the shoulder buttons are super sharp and dig extremely uncomfortably into your fingers when holding.

Great “little” controller
on January 9, 2026
Posted by: D F.

Bought from kickstarter campaign - TLDR it’s good, a bit small for my hands, but feels great to use so far. I have been waiting to get my hands on this thing for quite some time since the kickstarter was going, and now that I have it, it’s actually better than I thought. Being a kickstarter, I usually don’t expect much, but with all the love I saw the creator put into this, I figured it would be good. So far I’ve played Destiny Rising for a little and then Sky. Sky work beautifully, Destiny Rising felt a little too stiff on first play but I haven’t played with a controller in years so could be one of two things, the controls don’t match well with that game or, my hands are too big, and I think the latter is mostly the issue. I have above average hands. Like XL gloves is Ok but 2X is really comfortable. That being said, if you have big hands, it’s still worth it IMO, but hopefully (Please Oh Snap Please!) they make an XL version for the paddle handed people who can’t use small phones. Back to the design - it’s awesome! I love the translucence on the clear controller. The light colors pop very well when turned on, I do wish it had backlit buttons but that’s a luxury feature, also being able to use it and charge would be a nice next iteration. The soft touch on the MagSafe feels really good and premium and so does the metal on the flick screen. The fold out handle is so clutch for anyone to have and use. Overall, I give this a 4/5 for being such a great product off the bat. To reiterate, my only real issue is how small it it, though it was made to be so people can pocket it, but keep a sling with me almost always so having something a bit bigger with some more features would be great to match my iPhone Pro Max. I’d by it again just for that size. But good job team. I cannot attest to long term quality as I’ve just received it, but if anything happens I will leave another review.

Phantom button presses out of the box.
on January 8, 2026

TLDR: product had a defect out of the box, and there seems to be no way to make a warranty claim right now.I got my Mcon 5 days ago and have barely had time to use it, but when I finally got some time to play with it, I noticed very quickly that something was wrong. When playing iPhone games, it frequently sends phantom LT signals, often spamming it in bursts. For games like Stardew, this means I can never stay selected on the item I need. And with Cult of the Lamb, LT straight up pause the game, so it is completely unplayable. I have tried to go through the warranty process with OhSnap, but they eventually take you to a section where you have to select the product that is defective, and the Mcon is not listed. So as far as I can tell, there is effectively no way to submit a warranty claim right now.

Xbox layout please
on January 8, 2026

Looks good, but the layout for joysticks is too close to each other for a small handheld. As a guy with big hands, please also make a Xbox layout for this.
