Has someone tried USB-C smartphone game pad?

[elinkser]

I found 2 cheap ones that work with pinephone over USB: Gamesir X5 Lite which wraps around the phone horizontally, and theGamesir Nova Lite which connects by cable. My 8bitdo connects to my Linux laptop but not my Mobian bookworm 3GB pinephone.

Verified with AntiMicroX joystick configuration app.


None of the bluetooth seem to be recognized.


Edit: to answer the OP question, the dpad, buttons, and two joysticks are recognized in hardware e.g. in jstest-gtk on Linux.
