STEELSERIES STRATUS+

Admittedly, it is much "chunkier" to hold than your run-of-the-mill DualSense, but otherwise, overall hand feel and grip are excellent.

SOLID GAMING EXPERIENCE

With video games catering to all sorts of different platforms these days, it's only logical that a similarly diverse spread of controllers would emerge from the woodworks as well.

If you're currently in the market for a mobile game controller that's also compatible with PCs and Chromebooks, I think you should add the SteelSeries Stratus+ to your consideration list.

The Stratus+ weighs in at 244g and measures 150 x 110 x 63.2 mm. Physically, it doesn't look that different from a Nintendo Switch Pro Controller, although the D-Pad has swapped places with the left thumbstick.

Admittedly, it is much "chunkier" to hold than your run-of-the-mill DualSense, but otherwise, overall hand feel and grip are excellent.

The Stratus+ sports a new trigger design with Hall Effect magnetic sensors, which enhances the tactile feel and precision. They’re amazingly responsive and thus useful for intense genres that often utilise triggers, such as battle royales and racing sims. Apart from that, you’ve got a rather standard suite of inclusions, such as a 4-directional D-Pad, LED battery/ player number indicators, a duo of clickable ALPS thumbsticks, and a quartet of ABXY input buttons.
