First Impressions PhoneJoy

With our review of the PhoneJoy planned for early next week we thought wed write about out early impressions of the device which are mixed so far. Whilst we have had some difficulty connecting the device at times (we cant put our finger on why it can sometimes connect first time and yet at other times take 3 or 4 tries) and weve not really viewed it as being incredibly portable weve also really found that it is very easy to use, feels solid and sits in the hands well.

Also weve found (rather surprisingly) that the little stand that came with the device is nothing short of brilliant, its not only made the PhoneJoy more usable but its actually improved the phones ability to do things like watching movies or live sport on the phone as it holds the phone incredibly well.

Perhaps most amazingly is just how easy its been to map the buttons to the keys on the applications weve been using. For example using the right analogue stick as the "C buttons" on N64oid. Whilst t hey keys arent necessarily "perfect" for us to map to certain consoles thats not stopping us from finding good layouts when we need them due to the huge versatility of the control.

Our next mention of the PhoneJoy will be a review which will be followed with a number of useful guides for people that have decided to be buy one.
