In this video I put the OhSnap! MCON to the test, because I keep getting asked about a “next gen” mobile controller that’s actually portable and doesn’t feel like a whole backpack commitment. The MCON is a magnetic transforming controller—your phone snaps on, the back plate slides up to game, and slides down to protect the sticks and buttons when you’re done. It’s Bluetooth (no USB-C/Lightning for direct phone connection), it’s got GameSir Mag-Res anti-drift sticks, hall-effect analog triggers that can switch to digital, gyro support, and it’s built to be moddable/upgradeable and repairable to a certain extent. I also show the little details most people skip—like how to swap modes (X-Input, DS4, NS, D-Input), how to toggle trigger behavior, dead zones, gyro mapping, and even LED brightness. Then I tested it across devices: it worked on my iPhone (Call of Duty Mobile worked), it connected to my Android (NBA 2K worked, but I couldn’t get COD Mobile to detect it even in DS4 mode), and it worked on my PC through Steam. I also paired it to my Nintendo Switch 2 in NS mode and it worked there too. My takeaway: the concept is super cool and it’s easily the most portable controller I’ve tried, but it’s not perfect. With big hands, the Joy-Con style sticks sitting down inside those cutouts can get annoying because my thumbs rub the edges. Price is $149.99 (I saw it on sale for $129.99), so you really have to decide if portability and the magnetic “transforming” design are worth it for your setup.
