Hello and welcome to SamsungMania.cz
Samsung unveiled its vision of mobile gamepad with Galaxy S4 Announcement
And it was white device with similar design to Xbox 360 controller
Thats probly why we see gamepad after such a long time, Samsung created newer version
which is known as EI-GP20
And in press materials, Samsung is calling it "Black Wireless Gamepad"
This game controller has been reworked especially talking about its design
white color is gone, has been replaced by darker ones
even the game buttons were changed
Body of accessory is made from plastic, black on the top, gray on the sides and bottom
Main controllers are concentrated into four circles
On the left there is joystick and cursor button
On the right there is second joystick and four action buttons
Some supported games inform you about X,Y,A,B buttons and their usage
now there are dots, so it seems that even developers didn't know, how final version of Gamepad will look like
In the middle there is button Game, which opens support applikacion Mobile Console, you can download from SamsungApps
This app associate all games you can control with Gamepad on supported device
On the front, there is notification LED
slider for turning on Bluetooth or pairing mode, and keys Select and Start
you can use in games, but it is necessary to appeal to Samsung
because keys sometimes doesn't work as intended
Great change is using microUSB to charge internal 160mAh battery (EI-GP10 has 2xAAA batteries)
battery is somewhere inside, even after 9 hours of gamepad playing time, battery is still looking great
Among Bluetooth, there is N sign on the back, you can use to connect via NFC
After touching the device, Bluetooth can be turned on and phone can automatically connect to Gamepad
On the back, there are last two buttons - L and R
While in hand, gamepad isn't sliding because of rubbered parts on the back sides
This way you can use Gamepad as wireless controler, while your phone or tablet is connected to TV while using Screen Mirroring
Up to several meters you can control supported games
Or you can just put your smartphone into it
Just pull out this piece and there you can place smartphone with 4 - 6,3" diagonal
We can try to put there Galaxy S4
It fits quite good withing gamepad
Or Galaxy Note 3
Before, I would like to show you rubber parts on both sides, which prevents smartphone slides an movements while it is in Gamepad
After that you will have troubles accessing volume buttons and lock key
Which is one of the main disadvantages
Now we have phablet connected and button Game opens supported games
This is Mobile Console app, which you can download on SamsungApps
which means you can use Gamepad just with Samsung devices
however there are some unsupported models
On theese screens you can see available games
If thumbnails are grayed, games are not installed in a phone, otherwise they are coloured
For testing purposes we have installed all games
And for Note 3, there is now 38 supported games
Games you can filter by recently played or installed only
This was preview o Gamepad and Mobile Console app
next video will show you all games you can play with Gamepad
