ViaPlay F2 game controller review: a game controller that beats touch screens
|
Hello guys~ Today we The packaging is very straightforward, you can see the shape of the handle, and the supported usage is marked at the bottom. The back is the instructions and accessories, of course, these are just my guesses, because my English is really not good.The console and accessories include two mobile phone holders, one large and one small. The large holder is a detachable tray for accommodating particularly large mobile phones. It also includes a lithium battery and a USB cable. I was a little surprised that a controller actually uses a replaceable battery design, and the Nokia I used in those years suddenly came to my mind. In short, battery replacement is always a reasonable need, give it a thumbs up. In addition, you can purchase a Viaplay MHL/Slimport to HDMI high-definition mobile phone adapter to transfer the mobile phone screen to the TV, so that you can experience the gaming pleasure brought by a larger screen on the TV. The official price is 68 yuan, and the list of supported mobile phone models can be found on the product purchase details page. Let's look at the controller itself. The controller uses a solid color scheme, available in black and white. This time I got the black version. The front is a very glossy painted surface, while the back has a matte feel and is very comfortable to hold. The button part is very similar to the PS controller. I believe everyone is familiar with it, so I won't say much. The switch is under the joystick, and there is an indicator light next to it to display the current connection status and working mode of the controller. In the middle are five function keys and a mode adjustment switch, which can switch between mouse mode and controller mode. The controller mode is the standard key position used when playing games. The mouse mode will simulate the controller as a Bluetooth mouse, and an arrow will appear on the screen to control the phone. Press and hold the Select key and then turn the switch to the controller mode to turn it into iCade mode. iCade is the controller standard used by Apple. Unfortunately, there are not many games that support this standard, and most of them are foreign. I won't introduce it in this review. I will focus on the use under Android. If you like it, you can try it yourself. In terms of feel, except for the five buttons in the middle which are a bit hard, the others are moderate. The joystick feels very similar to the PSP joystick (note that it is not the joystick of the large handle of PS) (it is said to be the same model), the feedback is relatively strong, and it is a bit tiring to use the joystick for a long time.In terms of software, the viaplay game center can achieve good compatibility with the controller. In the viaplay game center, there is a list of compatible games and simulators, which can be played directly without manual settings, which is quite convenient. And usually simulators support custom key positions, which can be modified if you have your own key position habits. In addition, it also supports third-party game halls, such as Xiaocong Game Hall, XiaoY Game Hall, Grape Game Hall, and Fast Game. Someone asked, can all games be played with a controller? Sorry, there are so many games on mobile phones, and the operation methods are so strange, it is extremely difficult to adapt them all, almost impossible to complete. But the good news is that there is a function called key mapping in the viaplay game center, which is almost a universal solution that is compatible with all control methods, but the problem is that your phone needs to be rooted to use this function. The game Inferno 2 is used for the test. This game requires two joysticks to control the fighter. The left joystick controls the direction of travel, and the right joystick controls the direction of firing. Some tapping operations are also required to switch bullets, etc. Let's test whether the button mapping function is compatible. To demonstrate the key mapping function, first check and enable the viaplay mapping function in the input method settings in the system settings. A floating window will appear after enabling the touch screen mapping function Clicking the floating window in the game will take a screenshot of the current game interface to facilitate us to set the mapping position. Long press and drag up and down to set the current area as the joystick control area. The size of the coverage area can be adjusted, and other buttons can be mapped to single clicks. After setting up, you can use two joysticks to play. The operation process is very smooth, with almost no delay, and the feel is much better than the virtual joystick. After the game is over, long press the floating window and switch the input method back to the system input method to return to normal mode. Conclusion Through the above series of explanations, you should have a certain understanding of this controller. During the use, the editor feels that although the viaplay F2 still has some shortcomings in details, the feeling of playing games with peripherals is definitely far better than that of the touch screen. Currently, this controller is on sale in JD.com, and you can get coupons. If you are an avid mobile game enthusiast, don't hesitate, buy it! Buy, buy, buy!
