MCON Review: You Won’t Find a More Compact Mobile Controller

Earlier this year, the $150 MCON promised a mobile controller that was—finally—just as pocketable as your phone itself. That pitch was enough to make the product go viral, and after a successful Kickstarter, the makers at OhSnap are finally starting to ship.
