Gamepads for Note II - Galaxy Note II Accessories

I enjoy playing old games on long abandoned Platforms and thats part of the reason i went for the Note II, with a strong processor and large Screen. But most of the Games the Touchcontrols are simply inadequate in my experience and so for a long time now i have been looking for a suitable Gamepad for my phone.
I prefer ones that hold the phone securely and keep it portable. I enjoy the iControlpad 2 quite a lot, but the release for people who didnt donate to Kickstarter is still a long time off and i was wondering, are there alternatives to it?
If possible with Dual Analog Nubs, Shoulder Buttons and such features?
Would love to hear your findings and oppinions!

The Gameklip should work, but i find it unnecessarily bulky and the Steelseries pad has no clip for the Note 2, which is sad, since it looks rather nice in all other aspects.

Maybe Moga controller may fit the bill?

Im honestly looking for something smaller, more compact, not much chunkier than the phone itself.
But i guess the iControlpad 2 really is the only choice for me then.
Thanks to everyone anyway!

Gametel isn't big enough to hold GN2

I second the MOGA, I got it for Christmas and love it. Sounds like it might be for you. www.powera.com/moga Most best buys have them on display, at least near me they do, if you want to check one out. There are some YouTube videos on it too.
Incorrectly spelled on my stock rooted Sprint Note II

What is that you're using? Gameklip doesnt have a specific klip for the GN2, just the universal sticky/case. Only the GS3 has a klip.

I wish they'd make one like the beautiful rubber type one they made for the XOOM, that had a nice material, was protective, folded into a stand like this one above, and it looked the bees knees.

Will generic 10.1 cases work with nexus 10?
They might do, as it should be the same size width and length wise. The only thing would be the thinness
I doubt it, the Nexus looks more rounded an the edges. Like it's not rectangular, but a convex shape.

Would be awesome if it had a built-in kickstand like the Sir Face, that way I could just hook up a standard keyboard and mouse via micro-USB dongle (not a fan of those bluetooth keyboards/keyboard docks).
thans you...
I just ordered one of the generic leather case. Its made for the Galaxy note 10.1. I'll report back when or if i ever get my nexus 10. Might get the case first! The camera locations seems to be the same and the dimension are pretty similar.
I found this one, anyone ordered from this company before?

Looks awesome though.

Bluetooth Keyboard Video Review!

Hey guys, I have appreciated the video reviews posted here so I thought I would do one myself. This video review is for the New Trent Bluetooth Keyboard with touch pad. Here is a link to the video review
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tym3BoEhQwc&feature=youtube_gdata_player
And here is a link to the product on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-Mul...36&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=new+trent+ishuffle
My full written review is there as well. In short, its the best wireless keyboard I have used. Definitely worth the asking price of $55.
This is my first YouTube video, so there is much room for improvement. I plan on continuing to review various android hardware and accessories should you wish to subscribe. Let me know if you have ideas!
Very excellent

No where does it mention N7 in the description. I know it's bluetooth but I'm talking about how well it will hold the N7. Looks like it will work but I'll like to see it confirmed. Been there done that!
Thanks for the links...
How's this? Works just like with the note in there. Functionality wise, same. They probably didn't mention it because it's designed for 10 inch tablets but I think any keyboard smaller than this is too hard to type on

I think its better due to the fact that the stand is built in and the slide out track pad. I am a little biased though because I haven't owned that other one.

Yep, it's N-Trig. So far the only other Wacom pen I've found to work with my Note came from one of my old Fujitsu convertible laptops. It needs calibrated though, causing the point to not be where the stylus point is, and the eraser on the back or the switch on the side doesn't work.

Friend,

Is it ok?
It is really ok. Streaming videos and other stuff is super quick. Only when playing games such as real racing 3 there is lag and problems with picture sharpness, but I didn't bought it for games.

Allshare dongle is overpriced. Chromecast is multi platform and thus can be used with all your tablets/smartphones and computers.
