Infinix has introduced two new gaming accessories designed to give smartphone players a more console-like experience. The new GT NX Controller and GT NX Station combine physical controls, cooling, display connectivity and additional ports for mobile gaming.

The GT NX Controller is designed for players who want more precise control in games, especially first-person shooters and multiplayer battle arena titles. Its main feature is a large glass touchpad that Infinix describes as the world’s first “Pixel-Level FPS Precision Touchpad” on a mobile gaming controller.

The touchpad supports swiping and mouse-style operation. Infinix says it can help players aim more accurately in shooting games, while its mapping functions can be used to assign skills and other actions in games that do not natively support external controllers.

The controller uses a three-chip low-latency architecture, with two chips in one handle and a dedicated chip in the other. According to Infinix, the design provides millisecond-level direct connectivity and keeps controls responsive during fast gameplay.

The company rates the controller’s battery life at more than 22 hours. It also includes adjustable haptic feedback through Infinix’s XArena gaming platform, with low, medium and high intensity settings. In supported games, the controller can provide vibration alerts for events such as a character landing or a battle-zone change.

The GT NX Controller has textured grips intended to reduce slipping during long sessions. It can be used in several configurations, including attached to a smartphone, mounted for desktop gaming or operated in a portable single-hand mode.

The second product, the GT NX Station, is a docking station that combines cooling and connectivity. It includes built-in thermoelectric cooling, known as TEC cooling, which is intended to help control smartphone temperatures during demanding games.

Excess heat can cause a phone to reduce processor performance, a process commonly known as thermal throttling. Infinix says the dock’s active cooling system is designed to help maintain stable performance during extended sessions.

The GT NX Station can mirror a phone’s display on a monitor or television. It also supports an extended-display mode on compatible screens, allowing the external display and smartphone to show different content.

The dock provides a 9-in-1 port setup. Its connections include HDMI, RJ45 Ethernet, two USB-A ports, USB-C connectivity, USB-C power input, a microSD card slot and a 3.5mm audio jack. Wired Ethernet could help players avoid the instability sometimes associated with Wi-Fi during online matches, while power pass-through supports longer gaming sessions.

The station also features dynamic RGB lighting, adding a gaming-focused look to the setup. Together, the controller and dock are intended to turn a compatible smartphone into a portable or desktop gaming system without requiring a separate console.

Infinix has positioned the accessories as part of its wider GT gaming ecosystem. The company says they are designed to work with GT-series smartphones, although compatibility and features may vary by device and game.

Infinix has not announced universal pricing for all markets. In the Philippines, local reports say the two accessories are scheduled to launch on September 30, 2026, through the company’s official online stores. Availability in other regions may differ.
