OnePlus Set to Release its First Controller Alongside Ace 6 Ultra

Hold onto your joysticks—or, well, hold onto your phones. While rumors suggested OnePlus was ready to launch a dedicated gaming handheld, it turns out they’re taking a slightly more “accessory-focused” approach.

Alongside the upcoming Ace 6 Ultra, OnePlus is introducing the “Marksman” gaming controller. This isn’t a full console replacement, though. The controller skips the D-pad and face buttons entirely, relying on your phone’s touchscreen for the heavy lifting. Instead, it focuses on high-performance rear triggers with a lightning-fast 1.8ms response time and customizable macro buttons.

The Ace 6 Ultra itself is an absolute beast, boasting a massive 8600mAh battery and a 165Hz display. To keep things running smoothly, the Marksman controller even supports a magnetic cooling fan and features a built-in “gaming antenna” to boost your signal.

The quick breakdown:

  • The Good: Insane battery life, ultra-fast triggers, and a built-in charging port for long sessions.
  • The Weird: A dedicated gaming antenna (we’ll believe it when we see it).
  • The Catch: No physical buttons—you’re still stuck tapping that screen.

Expect the big reveal on April 28.
