It has two analogue sticks, a direction pad, face buttons and shoulder buttons in an ABS body measuring 17 × 12.3 × 6.3 cm, and the supplier lists it for Android and iOS. Easy Life Markets sells it in red with the bracket, a charging cable and a manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe old title called this a mobile game console. It is not a console and it has no screen or games of its own. It is a controller: your phone supplies the screen and the games, and the pad supplies the sticks and buttons. For anyone who plays on a phone and is tired of thumbs covering the picture, that is a real improvement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × S5 Plus gamepad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × phone bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × charging cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × manual in Chinese and English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e S5 Plus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Game controller for phones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListed for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Android and iOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABS plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17 × 12.3 × 6.3 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two analogue sticks, direction pad, face buttons and shoulder buttons, as shown in the photos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterface:\u003c\/strong\u003e USB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVibration:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePhone holder:\u003c\/strong\u003e Separate bracket, included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red with black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat the Supplier Does Not State\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier's sheet for the S5 Plus is short.
