Infinix Debuts GT NX Controller and Station for Mobile Gaming
Infinix announced the GT NX Controller and GT NX Station, two peripherals aimed at improving smartphone gaming. The controller includes a precision touchpad, haptic feedback, mapping support, and more than 22 hours of claimed battery life. The station adds TEC cooling, 9-in-1 connectivity, and external display support, with Malaysia pricing starting at RM399 per accessory.
Infinix announced the GT NX series on September 24, pairing a mobile controller with a docking station. The controller uses a large glass touchpad for aiming in FPS games, a three-chip design meant to reduce input delay, four assignable mapping zones, adjustable haptics through XArena, and a claimed 22-plus-hour battery.
The station adds TEC cooling and nine connection options: USB-C host, two USB-A ports, HDMI, RJ45, USB-C, USB-C PD input, microSD, and a 3.5mm audio jack. It supports mirroring or extending to compatible displays. Malaysia pricing starts at RM399 per accessory, with launch promotions offering lower prices.
For mobile gamers, add-on controls and active cooling could make phone play more comfortable and sustained, especially for FPS titles. Streamers and casual users may benefit from docking to a monitor or wired network. The pricing may matter: at RM399 per piece, adoption could stay niche unless bundles lower the barrier. Accessory makers might face pressure to match haptics, mapping, and cooling features.
