It means that it&#8217;s worth having a look at a mobile gaming controller now, if you&#8217;re someone who likes to get their game on while on the move. <\/p>\n<p class=\"u-speakableText-p2\">If you want one that&#8217;s going to really boost your abilities, then going for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/gaming\/the-gamesir-g8-plus-is-a-solid-mobile-controller-with-one-big-caveat\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">GameSir G8 Plus<\/a> is a very good choice, especially <a href=\"https:\/\/cc.cnet.com\/v1\/otc\/04Yxjj1rHOmYAxbnVDhvKNn?merchant=02zLDwCqTbhlnKCTPdI0yqf&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FGameSir-G8-Bluetooth-Wireless-Mobile-Gaming-Controller-Switch-iOS-Android-tablets-PC-Gamepad-Hall-Effect-Joysticks-Hall-Trigger-3-5mm-Audio-Jack-Blac%2F8698108756%3FclassType%3DVARIANT%26athbdg%3DL1900\" rel=\"noopener nofollow sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"(opens in a new window)\" data-location=\"BODY\">right now because it&#8217;s down to just $60 at Walmart<\/a>, which is $40 off. That&#8217;s an amazing deal, and one that you&#8217;ll want to make a move on soon, or it could be gone. <\/p>\n<p>This deal doesn&#8217;t ask you to enter any codes or clip any coupons, but you should be aware of its limited-time label. Stocks could run dry at any time, so make sure to order your new controller soon to avoid missing out. <\/p>\n<p>Hey, did you know? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/services-and-software\/i-will-text-you-the-best-daily-deals-for-free\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>The GameSir G8 Plus supports both Android and iOS, and connects to your device using Bluetooth. You place your phone or tablet into the controller itself, creating a Nintendo Switch-like experience. <\/p>\n<p>The controller itself has Hall Effect joysticks to avoid age-old issues like stick drift, and the six-axis motion-sensing technology is useful for games that support motion controls. You can even connect this controller to your PC via a USB-C cable and play there, too. <\/p>\n<p>Our reviewer, Jason Cockerham, thinks this controller is worth grabbing if you don&#8217;t mind dealing with its software. He goes into more detail in his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tech\/gaming\/the-gamesir-g8-plus-is-a-solid-mobile-controller-with-one-big-caveat\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"c-shortcodeLink c-shortcodeLink-active\" target=\"_blank\">full review<\/a>, but notes that, &#8220;If you don&#8217;t care much about the lackluster app, then the G8 Plus really is a solid controller. It feels great, responds well, and has respectable battery life.&#8221; He also added that, &#8220;It&#8217;s a great controller, even for $100.&#8221; And now that it&#8217;s down to $72, it&#8217;s a much better value.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p> Why this deal matters <\/p>\n<p>Sometimes it can be difficult to find time to fire up a console or PC, but that doesn&#8217;t have to mean you can&#8217;t play. Mobile gaming is a great way to game when you might otherwise not be able to, and this controller gives you a familiar gaming feel on the go &#8212; and at an excellent price, too. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mobile gaming has come along massively of late with both mobile phones themselves getting better, and also massive&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":264818,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[61,60,202,80],"class_list":{"0":"post-264817","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-ie","9":"tag-ireland","10":"tag-mobile","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264817","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=264817"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264817\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/264818"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=264817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=264817"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=264817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
