The Gamevice is a pretty device to add physical controls to an iPad Mini. It can be strapped onto your tablet like using an accessory to transform your iPad into an iOS-powered portable game console. The device has a companion app that comes with a library of suggested games (including links to jump straight for easy downloading to their App Store listings). The Gamevice's back strap is not retractable, so there's a separate model for the larger iPad Airs.
Gizmag said that the Gamevice strikes iPad users as the best solution. The device supports all versions of the iPad mini, but if you're using either the new iPad Mini 4 or the original Mini, you may notice a less perfect fit, where the two sides of the controller bend backwards just a hair line, so they aren't at a completely flush angle with the iPad Mini.
Its ease of setup, unified form factor, and solid controls, make the device a perfect pick for the best controller for your iPad Mini today. There will be similar versions for iPad Air 1 and iPad Air 2 along with another for the iPhones 6s/6s Plus and 6/6 Plus, which will hit store shelves before the end of the year. This Gamevice for iPad Mini version and other similar versions will each retail for US$100.
At long last, the controller that many iPad users are waiting is now here. Gamevice is a purpose-built controller that is actually designed for iOS. A perfect controller that connects directly to the iPad, fits it like a globe, and doesn't distract with random Bluetooth or the battery life of your iPad. It is a controller that gets out of your way and lets you play with ease.
According to After Pad review, connecting the Gamevice to your iPad Mini is painless. Gamevice can easily be inserted to any version of iPad Mini, lightning-side-first, then pull the other half of the device outward and slip it around the other end of the iPad.
