Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

With mobile gaming on the rise, the industry has come a long way from the likes of Flappy Bird and Temple Run. While those games could easily be played with one thumb, nowadays more competitive games need a bit of an “oomph” if you want to have any kind of upper hand.

Aside from having a phone with power to ensure your games will run smoothly without nuking your battery life, it never hurts to look to the market to see how your experience can be heightened. When it comes to mobile gaming, there are a few accessories you need that will really take your play to the next level. Whether you enjoy playing good ol’ Fortnite, Call of Duty or Minecraft, none of these games would be as easy to play on your phone without a compatible controller or joystick.

Below, we’ve rounded up the must-have accessories for mobile gaming you need if you want to take your experience from good to great.

This mobile phone controller by Razer

The first phone accessory is the most obvious: to bypass all the tapping, you need to get your hands on a mobile gaming controller.

Its clickable analog thumbsticks allow for greater in-game accuracy and convenience so you can shoot ’em up without breaking a sweat.

By playing with a pair of finger sleeves, you’ll find that any sweat is immediately absorbed and you won’t have to worry about leaving moisture on your phone screen any longer.

Thanks to their non-slip texture, these finger sleeves are also great for avoiding operational errors so you can enjoy a smoother gaming experience.

Considering that most mobile phones have an internal storage capacity starting from 128GB, you’d be surprised how quickly that can fill up when your whole life is contained in a single device. From your photo library to your social media apps and your expansive gaming library, a micro SD card is a godsend when your smartphone gives you the dreaded “Memory is full”.

SanDisk is a fantastic provider of micro SD cards that will help you expand your internal storage. The SanDisk Extreme Pro was rated A2 in terms of faster app loading and performance making it the ideal choice to store your favourite mobile games.

Shop it here for $34.40 (down from $80.82).

Other mobile gaming accessories worth considering

Blue light glasses

With all that gaming, you’re bound to clock up hours upon hours of screen time. But to ensure you protect your vision, you’re going to need a pair of blue light filtering glasses (in case you’re not already myopic). You see, prolonged exposure to HEV blue light can eventually result in blurred vision and eye strain. With this pair of blue light glasses by Cyxus (available for $32.99) you can minimise the risk of common problems while gaming, such as fatigue and headaches as well.

Next, it’s a good idea to keep you phone screen shiny and smudge-free, especially after grinding away for hours each day. For $8.99, you can get a set of 10 microfiber cleaning cloths that are so gentle, they won’t leave any marks or scratches on the glass.
