Yeah, it can be frustrating sometimes! I just make it part of the fun—makes me feel like I’m in a more intense game!
A quirky little tip: try placing your phone on an anti-static mat while playing. Sounds silly, but I’ve heard it can sometimes help signal quality.

Who knew? Next, someone will suggest I wear tinfoil on my head while playing. But I’m open to anything that might reduce lag!
I’ve been experiencing lag with my PS4 controller on my Android, especially in racing games. I wonder if other controllers perform better.
I hear you! My Xbox controller seems to have less lag in similar situations. Maybe it’s worth a switch?
I’ve noticed similar issues with the PS4 controller too, but my friends say the Logitech controllers are much better for Android. Anyone else tried them?

I’ve had success with third-party controllers, less lag and smooth connectivity. It might be a good option!
What kind of devices are you all using? I have a Pixel and the performance seems hit or miss. Maybe it’s Android versions?
I’m on a Samsung and face the same issues. Could we be looking at device-specific problems?
PS4 controller lag is frustrating! I’ve used a Razer Kishi with my phone and it feels much more responsive. Wish I had gone this route sooner.

Nice, I’ll have to check that out! Definitely sounds better than my current setup.
Is the lag really that noticeable? I’ve been using the PS4 controller without issues. Maybe I’ve just been lucky!
For those of us who are competitive gamers, even a fraction of a second can be a deal-breaker. It’s definitely not luck!
Everyone’s talking about lag, but how fun is it to just game? I could blame the controller, but it could also be my skills!
