The Switch-inspired design
The new joystick features an extendable format that allows users to mount the phone or tablet in the center, as if it were a console.
Unlike other similar pads, Xiaomi's can separate into two independent parts, each with its own battery.
Physical controls and premium features
It features two sticks, a D-pad, front and top buttons, triggers, and several extra buttons to access functions such as Bluetooth or system options.
Controles físicos y funciones premium
It includes haptic vibration, LED lights on the sticks, and fully customizable buttons, all with an aesthetic that combines white with gray and modern details.
Connectivity: Bluetooth only, no cables
Instead of using USB-C or another type of physical connection, Xiaomi opted for a single connection method: Bluetooth.

This allows for greater flexibility but limits use in contexts where a direct, latency-free connection is preferred.
Tested on the REDMI K Pad with Black Myth: Wukong
During the presentation, the controller was demonstrated in action with the REDMI K Pad, an 8.8-inch tablet, running Black Myth: Wukong.
The session was remote via Steam, showcasing the controller's versatility for playing with external platforms in a cloud gaming format.
