- PuK Thumbstick: Join the mobile gaming revolution with the PuK Thumbstick. Precision-engineered with quality materials, the PuK Thumbstick consists of two components, a magnetic anchor safely attaching to the rear of the device, and the thumbstick itself, able to be positioned on screen where gamers traditionally find a virtual thumbstick.

In-game settings allow gamers to optimize their control to suit their play preference.

- PuK Umbilical Link: Meet the missing link in your mobile gaming arsenal! The PuK Umbilical Link is no mere cable, instead this ergonomically formed, and structurally reinforced USB-C Cable has been specially designed for mobile gamers. Ingenious in design and slick in execution, the PuK Umbilical Link features a unique 90-degree execution, keeping the cable out of the way of the action so that gamers can concentrate on what is happening on-screen rather than fighting a mess of wires. Experience power, audio and video without compromising control, the PuK Umbilical Link is the cable that does it all.
Dylan Burgess, Co-Founder and COO of PuK Gaming commented, “Touchscreen controls provide brilliant low latency input, UI customization and impressive accuracy when using the dexterity and fine motor controls of your thumb. Touch can be incredibly effective when used with certain software, however, fatigue often creeps in during sustained gaming sessions, and the lack of physical feedback when playing in touch mode has created demand for a better solution, especially with playing games originally designed for console or PC. In an attempt to address these issues, traditional controller manufacturers have opted to circumvent touch controls entirely; missing out on the benefits of touch play but also introducing new issues like input latency, battery management, poor ergonomics, a painful pairing process, and blocking off connectivity. With a lack of compatibility or optimisation with many titles, this has resulted in splitting our mobile gaming communities in two. Our mission is to unite touch and physical controls, harnessing the benefits of touch, adding comfortable, physical devices that interface directly with your phone. Nothing to charge, pair or maintain for a price mobile gamers can afford, in a package that fits in their pocket.”
