Moto GamePad

Enjoy a true gaming experience in a handheld console equipped with dual control sticks, a d-pad, and four action buttons. Built-in 1035 mAh battery, so you're free to play without draining your phone's battery.

Take charge of your games with the Moto Gamepad Moto Mod. Like other Moto Mods, the Gamepad snaps onto the back of any member of the Moto Z family of phones and is held in place with magnets. This Moto Mod adds physical gaming controls to your device and uses the Moto Mods connector for a direct link with your phone, avoiding the lag that can occur with wireless connections like Bluetooth.
