Good points?
The first thing that stands out on the Trust Muta gaming controller is its sleek and ergonomic design. The device fits comfortably between both hands, thanks to its well-placed buttons and textured grips, allowing for hours of gameplay without fatigue.
The 15-button layout is intuitive and easily accessible, ensuring swift and precise inputs, while the adaptive vibration gives accurate feedback during intense gaming sessions. The ability to customise both joysticks and the D-pad provides an added layer of control, giving gamers a competitive edge in various genres.
Boasting impressive compatibility, it works seamlessly with a wide range of platforms, including PC, Nintendo Switch, Android and IOS. The controller connects via 2.4 GHz USB receiver, Bluetooth or USB cable offering versatility and convenience no matter the platform.
The wireless connectivity options ensure freedom of movement and eliminates the hassle of tangled wires, enhancing the overall gaming experience.
The Trust Muta gaming controller promotes sustainability through solid construction made from 75 per cent recycled plastics that can withstand all the expected knocks and bumps. The buttons and triggers are responsive and provide a satisfying tactile feel.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
