The ASUS ROG Tessen Mobile Controller brings physical game controls to Android phone gaming. It suits mobile players who want familiar controller input for supported games, whether playing at home or taking their setup on the move.

Its foldable design makes the controller easier to carry, while the USB-C connection provides wired input with a 500 Hz polling rate. Mechanical switches in the face buttons and D-pad offer tactile feedback, and the two aluminium rear paddles can be programmed for in-game commands. Armoury Crate provides button remapping and lighting customisation, with Aura RGB effects for a personalised setup.
