preface

In recent years, with the popularity of smart phones, some peripheral products around smart phones are becoming more and more popular, and major mobile phone manufacturers compete for various high-end configurations armed with mobile phones, which further paves the way for smart phones to become different game consoles. Speaking of which, I have to mention the current situation of smartphone games. For most app games, more than half of them can now be called Yiyang Finger Games (I call games played with one finger Yiyang Finger Games). But for most people, they prefer some more intense and highly operational games. For such games, We will find that a serious defect of smart phones is that virtual keys are added to the screen, which makes it easy for fingers to cover some key parts during playing games, especially for obsessive-compulsive disorder such as mine. This greatly reduces the experience of games, so some smart game controllers have emerged. While the Handjoy ultra-thin smart handle is not the first smart handle in China, it is the first smart game handle to realize the trend of ultra-thin portability. Let's take a look at this product together.

Unpacking of product packaging

Handjoy's ultra-thin intelligent handle box is in the color of light yellow kraft paper. The "handjoy" on the upper left corner of the box is the logo of this handle. The center is a simplified picture of the front of the handle. It is slightly larger than the real handle. There are no patterns and product introductions around and at the bottom of the box. The overall appearance is simple and generous.

Open the top of the box and put one of the handles on it. The portable belt is imitation fur, which feels very good.

Next are the handle manual Quick Start Guide and a letter to Lei Feng's trial players (the letter will not be described in detail). The following picture shows the pattern of the manual. The main contents of the manual will be basically covered below, so I will not repeat it.

At last, we saw the true face of this product. In the left pane was the USB charging cable of the handle, and on the right was the long-awaited real handle. I got the black version (black and white), and then there was a layer of blue protective film around the handle, which effectively avoided some scratches and friction.

Introduction to handle appearance

The left half of the top of the handle is a rocker, a cross shaped direction key, two keys 1 and 3, a select key, and a clear key; The right part is a rocker, four A, B, X, Y control keys, two No. 2 and 4 keys, one start key and one indicator light.

The left half of the front of the handle is the charging interface of the handle, and the right half is a two-way switch (turn the switch to the left to adapt to the Apple system, and turn the switch to the right to adapt to the Android system)

The bottom surface of the handle is almost horizontal, and an ergonomic rubber anti slip pad is added at the left and right edges, which is also an improvement on the completely hand-held handle to create an ultra-thin handle.

The left part behind the handle is a L1 and an L2 control key, and the right part is a R1 and R2 control key.

Two more side photos of the handle.

  The maximum stretching distance of the handle is 168cm, so most mobile phones on the market can be put down now. The middle support plate uses three-stage stretching, and the middle metal panel also has the icon and logo of the handle. The screws of four detents can also be seen on the back.

The following is the key description of the Handjoy ultra-thin intelligent game controller

In general, the handle is comfortable to hold when playing games, and its weight is moderate. When you add the weight of your mobile phone, you won't feel too heavy. The handle rocker is the original Nintendo 3DS rocker, and the pointy particle rubber rocker cap (this is also to make the handle thinner as a whole, instead of the long rocker used for most handles, the short rocker used for most handles, and their operating properties are different). There is no doubt that the quality and feel of this handle are absolutely excellent. The biggest slot point is that the cross shaped direction key is a little small, which is easy to press wrong when playing games, and the handle keys are obviously loose, affecting the overall quality of the handle.

Hands on experience

First, you need to download the game simulator before playing, scan the bottom of the handle, or the QR code on the manual to download its official simulator. Then you can start connecting with the handle according to the following tips, and finally thousands of games are waiting for you to experience. Note: Some models may not adapt or flash back (this happens when I use Nubia and Meizu mobile phones). If so, players can also download other simulators, such as the chicken simulator, which is tested by the author, The handjoy handle can support perfectly, so those who are worried about the game volume or the mismatch can rest assured that there are absolutely all kinds of games. The following are the operating steps for connecting the handle to the official simulator.

After the handle is connected to the mobile phone, the official simulator app can be used to open the debugging page of the handle. Here you can check whether the handle button and the mobile phone respond, so you can clearly see the damage of the button here, which is also convenient for targeted maintenance. You can also see the power status of the handle here. (According to the official, another way to judge the power shortage is to check whether the two indicators on the handle are dim.) During the charging process, the battery can be fully charged after 1-2 hours. The battery can be used for 24 hours when it is fully charged, and it can be standby for 30 days.

Here are the three common game methods I recommend for you. The first is to place the mobile phone horizontally in the middle of the handle (in the "Three Kingdoms" test, it can run and control perfectly). Of course, the upper and lower positions of the mobile phone can be adjusted slightly. For example, if you want to wear headphones to enjoy the game alone, you can put the mobile phone up properly to expose the headphone hole, which can perfectly solve this problem. The same is true for mobile phone charging.

The second way is to place the phone vertically in the middle of the handle (in the Super Mario test). Of course, this method also depends on the restrictions of some games or your personal habits, which is no problem.

The third way is to put the phone on the table without touching the handle (in the double dragon test). This way is also limited. For example, you need a carrier in front of you that can place the phone horizontally.

Finally, I selected several representative games, and took screenshots of the following four pictures in the game: Shadow Legend, Rainbow Island, Ninja Turtle, and Mindoro. Is it full of childhood color? So I hope this handle can awaken your childhood memories.

The name of the game in the following picture is Full time Hunter: Miracle Adventure (I played it with the chicken simulator, and the handle can perfectly support it). In this game, almost all the control keys are used, and the operability is very strong. It's a pleasure to play with the handle.

The following game must be known by everyone. This is also the unique experience that my roommates often play on computers. Even with a mobile phone and a handle, I can feel like a computer.

Finally, I told you something special about the handle, Handjoy's ultra-thin intelligent game controller can support WeChat games. The principle it needs is the mapping function of the controller. The basic operation method is to open the game and press the function key 2 to enter its mapping page. The following picture is a sample of my nationwide surprise mapping. You can view the specific tutorial in the official controller.

In general, I have conducted some tests on various games in the days I tried them. In the project of trying, the Bluetooth connection between the handle and the mobile phone is stable, there is no inexplicable disconnection and other problems during the game, and the response speed of the handle during the game is excellent without obvious delay. However, the official simulator does not adapt seriously, and some functions can only be used by root.

proposal

1. The cross direction keys on the handle should be appropriately enlarged to reduce the looseness of the keys

2. Hopes the manufacturer can produce more colorful fuselage

3. Hope to adapt more models in the official app to improve stability.

Summary

Handjoy ultra-thin intelligent handle, as the first leading ultra-thin portable handle in China, can't deny that although the concept of ultra-thin has made sacrifices in many aspects, its portability has indeed provided great convenience for intelligent wear today, whether at home or in travel, Handjoy's ultra-thin smart handle will not be your redundant burden. Finally, I would like to say that smart wear has provided us with great convenience, and the emergence of smart handles has also let us regain the memory of the red and white machines in childhood. The development of technology can not erase the existence of classics. Finally, I would like to pay tribute to the past classics.
