Gametel, a Bluetooth controller that transforms smartphones and tablets into a portable games console, is now available to buy at Amazon UK. Retailing for £49.99 and eligible for free Super Saver Delivery, Gametel makes mobile gaming fun, delivering superior gameplay when compared to touchscreen controls and opening up a bigger viewing area free of fingers.

Unlike a touchscreen gaming interface, Gametel’s console-style D-pad, quartet of buttons and two shoulder triggers provide responsive physical controls and make intricate and immersive games easier to play.

Compatible with Android smartphones and tablets running Android 2.1.1 Éclair or later, Apple iPads running iOS 3.2 or later and iPhones supporting iOS 4.0 or later, Gametel connects to the device via Bluetooth, automatically pairing every time it powers on.

The controller’s built-in adjustable spring-loaded clamp allows secure docking of any Android handset or iPhone while sturdy soft rubber clasps protect handsets from being scratched or damaged. A nine hour battery life provides more than enough playing time for long journeys and weekly commutes.

Along with a current line-up of 37 compatible games, including the five star No Gravity, Outfoxed, Silverfish, Temple Run, Super Crossfire HD, Inc, Enborn X, Air Attack HD and Terra Noctis, Gametel for iPhone and iPad also supports iCADE’s suite of classic retro games with over 100 titles available to download from the Apple iTunes App Store.

Over 50 compatible games are available to download from the Android market, including popular titles: Cordy; Sleepy Jack; Whale Trail; Asphalt 5 HD; R-Type; Reckless Getaway; Reckless Racing; Samurai II: Vengence; Guns’n’Glory; Space Cat; Wind-Up Knight; Sonic CD and Zenonia. More games are being added every day while a full list of compatible Android and iOS can be found at www.gametel.co.uk.

Bo Nyman, CEO of Fructel, the company behind Gametel says: “Gametel is now selling at the UK’s largest and most recognised online retailer, making it easy for UK customers to buy Gametel and enjoy a superior mobile gaming experience.”

The Gametel also brings mobile gaming to the big screen. With today’s smartphones featuring a built-in HDMI connection, users can hook up the device to a HD TV, pairing up to four controllers for a spot of multi-player gaming in the comfort of the living room
