Xbox Game Pass is the flat rate for Microsoft games that, for just 13 euros -in its Ultimate version-, gives us the opportunity to play with more than 450 titles both on PC and consoles High quality releases that it is possible to take with us thanks to the cloud service that allows us to connect without limit from wherever we are.
From the theory to the practice
The only problem with playing with Xbox Cloud Gaming on mobile and more specifically with Xbox Game Pass from your touch screen is that not all games are ready to be used without an external control accessory. But one fine day, just like that, I ended up getting a GameSir X2 for a Samsung mobile that I carry with me and, suddenly, the entire ecosystem devised by Microsoft made sense.
Indeed, all those games that could not work because they were not adapted to touch control became playable and then I discovered the infinite advantages of being on the bus, the park or the office at lunchtime with a High on Lifea Atomic Hearth and even take a couple of flights through the skies of Alicante with flight simulator. As I tell you in the headline, it had gone from not giving importance to carrying Xbox Game Pass in your pocket to being an inexhaustible source of entertainment.
So yes. The key to everything for it to work was something as simple as acquiring a gaming controller of those, which are sold in stores like Amazon and of which there are many variants. You can opt for the most basic ones but if you want maximum precision and functionality, you will surely have to go for more specific models like the ones I mentioned before from GameSir, which is one of the most prominent manufacturers in this field.
Gaming Controller via USB or Bluetooth?
If you want to get hold of one of these calls gaming controller, you must remember that there are very different connection alternatives: on the one hand the wireless ones that are linked to the mobile via Bluetooth; and for another those that have a direct USB-C connection and, in some cases, Lightning for Apple iPhones. In the latter case, it all depends on the brand of your device to choose between one or the other.
Now, are Bluetooth models reliable? On paper, they are not as strong as those that are physically connected to the phone, but we must also tell you that we have tried some and there is no doubt that while the connection is maintained, it will be reliable and accurate. So the reason to get one of these should not be sought so much in this detail as in its versatility, the possibility of using it interchangeably with an Android or iPhone smartphone if you use both standards at the same time.
Furthermore, all these gaming controller They usually come with a travel bag, which not only prevents bumps and protects them, but also It will allow you to put it in your backpack when you go to work or on the street and take it with you everywhere, which is a bit of what it is about when we want to squeeze this Xbox Game Pass on the go. So if you’re interested in getting your hands on some, we can quickly recommend three models.
On the one hand the GameSir X2 Pro with USB-C connector, which is a very compact model with a great finish and precision of the buttons; on the other, the GameSir X2, which is very reliable and at an exceptional price; and finally the Razer Kishi, specially designed for Xbox Game Pass, which can also come in handy and is the cheapest of the three.
