Ohsnap Announces Two Sleek Variants of the MCON Controller

Ohsnap just dropped not one, but two new versions of its MCON controller—and yes, the timing is… bold.

After shipping 16,000 units of the original magnetic gamepad, they’re back with the MCON Slim and MCON Lite: sleeker, thinner, and (hopefully) cheaper. The Slim? A MagSafe-thin marvel that slides out like a phone case with ambitions—touch analog sticks, physical triggers, and camera-friendly cutouts. It’s basically a GameSir Pocket Taco with a PhD in controller design. The Lite? 3DS-style Circle Pads, no touchpads, and a $60 price tag that’ll make retro fans nod in approval.

But here’s the catch: the Slim won’t launch until iPhone 18 drops this fall. And while preorders for the original MCON are still rolling in, some backers are… unimpressed. One commenter put it best: “Announcing two new versions while people are still waiting for their first?” Oof.

Still, Ohsnap’s track record suggests they’re more靠谱 than your average Kickstarter ghost. Just maybe… wait for reviews before you swipe that card. 🎮📱
