There are lots of great games available on Android platform, including action games, adventure games, role playing  games, racing games, shooting games, etc, but playing them with an onscreen buttons isn't much exciting and on the same time difficult. 


If you are an keen smartphone gamer and looking for an easy and more entertaining way to play games on your smartphone, then Phonejoy Play is the best solution for you.

PhoneJoy Play is a wireless game pad controller that allows you to fix smart phones of all sizes running Android and iOS into the pad, turning your phone into a hand held portable console for great gaming.
The PhoneJoy controller offers a start button just like a Playstation controller, a D-Pad, two analog sticks, four action buttons, four shoulder buttons and back buttons. The smartphone is clamped between the two controller halves as in Figure and the phone is surrounded in place with a sprung ratchet mechanism. The controller can be extended to fit smart phones and related devices up to 153 mm (6 inches) wide, and 14 mm (0.5 inch) thick. Note these dimensions are the maximum limit provided by the phone joy device.
Another great feature of phone joy is that it is nor particularly for smartphone users rather it can also get attached with Pc running Windows, OSX or nay other operating system.
