Acer Nitro Controller Launches at Very with Easter Discount

If you've ever tried to play a demanding mobile game like a fast-paced shooter or a retro platformer, you know that touchscreen controls often fall short. Acer understands this challenge, and their newly launched Nitro Mobile Gaming Controller (NGR400) is here to help. It's now available at Very.co.uk with a limited-time launch offer until April 20th.

This controller seems like a great choice for those seeking a more tactile gaming experience without compatibility issues. It boasts a standard console-style layout with dual analogue sticks, responsive face buttons, a D-pad, and shoulder buttons, all neatly packed into a foldable body for easy portability. Whether you're at home or on the go, you can enjoy a more immersive gaming experience.

The Nitro Mobile Gaming Controller connects via Bluetooth and includes pass-through charging, supporting 18W fast charging. This means you can keep your phone powered up while you're grinding through quests or waiting for your next PvP match.

It's compatible with Android 9.0 and up, as well as iPhone 15 models, thanks to its USB-C connection. The controller also features adjustable grips and padding to fit most phone sizes, even if you prefer to keep your phone case on.

The design is sleek, aligning with Acer's Nitro branding, primarily in matte black with subtle red accents. It's not overly flashy but perfectly complements the serious mobile gamer aesthetic. While mobile gaming controllers aren't a new concept, they've evolved significantly, and the Nitro aims to strike a balance between convenience and performance.

If you're considering upgrading your mobile gaming setup without spending too much, the introductory offer at Very makes this an ideal time to take a look. You can grab it for £49.99 before Easter, after which the price will increase to £69.99.
