Turtle Beach Atom Coming To iPhone
The Turtle Beach Atom is a mobile game controller with a two-piece design and already exists for Android devices though from next month iPhone users can also utilise this controller themselves. The controller uses a wireless design using a proprietary 2.4 GHz link to connect the two controller modules and connects via BlueTooth to your mobile device. The two modules use adjustable spring-loaded clamps to comfortably connect to your phone which sits between them similarly to other handheld devices such as the Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch. This particular model comes in a Cobalt Blue colourway as opposed to the black and yellow used on the Android version of the device
“Our Atom Controller for iOS delivers precision controls that will feel fantastic in the hands of gamers on iPhone, and its unique magnetic design makes it easy to pack up when mobile gamers are on the go,” said Cris Keirn, Interim CEO & SVP of Global Sales, Turtle Beach Corporation.
