ergonomic grip that mimics traditional handheld consoles. The controller features customizable button mapping and four physical buttons, allowing players to go beyond basic two-thumb controls into more complex, multi-finger inputs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Performance is another area where OnePlus is making big claims.

There&#8217;s also a built-in gaming antenna for strong signal reception and a USB-C port located at the bottom so you can charge while you play.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<h2>oneplus ace 6 ultra specs<\/h2>\n<p>Backing up the controller is some serious hardware on the phone itself.
