One of the biggest names in gaming controllers is now entering the world of mobile devices: SCUF Gaming aims to revolutionize hardcore phone gaming with the recently announced SCUF Nomad.
Is a SCUF controller worth it?
Like other SCUF controllers, the Nomad comes with customizable rear paddles and anti-drift thumbsticks, but it also features a subscription-free app to pair it with, and will be "compatible with many cases," which is often a problem for controllers intended to fit on mobile phones.
“As gaming continues to evolve, SCUF remains committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions that empower gamers to elevate their performance and enjoyment across all platforms,” said Jake Tenorio, Director of Product Marketing at SCUF Gaming. “Mobile gaming is an exciting new category for SCUF, with gaming continuing its rapid convergence across mobile, console and PC.”
The thumbsticks are also full-sized to provide “pinpoint accuracy and control, while anti-drift Hall effect components ensure sustained performance.” The SCUF app, meanwhile, will serve as a hub for games from the App Store and Remote Play apps, but will also allow the creation of multiple profiles for settings like “trigger sensitivity, thumbstick responsiveness, and the remapping of each button.”
