Background

Back in early February 2022, while I was wandering around a Daiso store, I found something that interest me: a Daiso Smartphone Holder Controller Shape.

Since it cost only 2 SGD, I decided to get one to try it out.

The Stuff

The Daiso Smartphone Holder Controller Shape comes only in black. As the name says, it shapes like a game controller.

According to the box, it states that it is "compatible with smartphones that have a screen size of 13cm to 16.5cm (5.1in. to 6.5in.)."

It also has a stand at the back of the holder, and holes at the left and the right side for charging.

Here are some pictures that I have taken to show what the stuff looks like:

Usage and Experience

I have used the Daiso Smartphone Holder Controller Shape for a while. I use it to either play games that require a landscape view or watch videos on full screen. I find it useful when playing games as the controller shape makes it ergonomically better and more comfortable to hold. With that, I feel that it allows me to have better control and have some added advantage :)

The hole at the sides is a good thing as I can still use the controller and play while charging via cable.

This is something of a cheap thrill for me as I don't really need it. But surprisingly sometimes it comes in handy especially when playing games on my phone :)
