For years, mobile gamers have faced a quiet contradiction: the games on their phones grew serious, but the tools to play them well remained too cumbersome to carry. Razer's new Prio controller, folding down to the dimensions of a credit card and priced at $100, attempts to resolve that tension — offering both Android and iPhone users a portable precision instrument that fits where their phones already go. It is a small object with a larger ambition: to close the gap between the games people want to play and the conditions under which they are willing to play them.
