REDMAGIC unveils the Shadow Blade 2 controller!

The new gamepad brings upgraded features that can turn your phone into a handheld gaming device. This also offers zero latency with its USB-C connectivity.

Red Magic has changed the design into a more ergonomic approach with a curved handle instead of the boxy design from the previous.

It has four directional pads, left and right joysticks, four face buttons in Xbox layouts, menu keys, and left and right bumpers. 

One of the main highlights is Hall effect linear triggers for precise controls and ensuring that the triggers won't have dead zones and will not wear down. REDMAGIC also added it is more rugged and brings protection from wear and tear. Furthermore,  it includes a specialized IC that can trigger inductions over 5 million times.

USB-C connectivity

Another highlight is the back buttons of the controller which can be mapped accordingly. This will provide users a handy extra key for their overall gaming experience.

Finally, its USB-C allows charging while playing for that uninterrupted experience while the gamepad also supports a 3.5mm audio jack.
