Luckily, #3dprinting (and #openscad) to the rescue!

Lo and behold, #RazerJunglecat on my #GalaxyS23Ultra!

My solution was to just print a thing that I could clip to my preferred Bluetooth controller and hold my phone in place.

I just use a DualSense but this makes me want to design one around a pair of Switch joycons.

@Kolanaki Take a look at https://github.com/SiloCityLabs/Cuttlephone - it's an OpenSCAD parametric design where you "just" need to measure your phone correctly and then render and print it. That's how I did mine. It has support for hard cases (PLA, PETG and so on), soft cases (TPU), Junglecat controller and Switch JoyCons.

Ooo... It even uses the rails. I was gonna be way less sophisticated (and end up using more filament) lol

Could be worse. You could have the Moto Gamepad Mod, which only supports one phone. (Well, three if you want to count all three generations of the Moto Z series phones.)

Yes, I have one. Why do you ask...?

@dual_sport_dork Should still work with some custom 3D printed adapter, shouldn't it? But it definitely looks harder to create the adapter than a case.

Negative, unless your phone has the connector pads on the back for Moto Mods, which only the Z series has. The controller has no other way to connect to a phone.

@dual_sport_dork Ah, good old vendor lock-in.

I actually make junglecat cases for the Samsung z fold series!

I plan to make more for other phones too.

I sell my stls and prints https://frogcase.store/products/z-fold-3-junglecat-controller-case

These controllers are super cheap since the 3 phones it works with are so old now. You can get them for like $30!

@4lan Nice! Though not my cup of tea, I prefer open source. Where can you get the controllers for $30? Might get some spare ones.

Amazon when I got mine, always check the other seller options sometimes they hide better deals

@4lan Nothing in EU as far as I can find :/

@NoneYa I loved it as well, though it was definitely a very tight fit with the Note 20 Ultra. Sadly it broke after ~3 months and I never got a replacement.
