Green Lion Striker Wireless Gaming Controller is now in stock at Mascom International for KSh 7,800, brand new and sealed. The pad connects over Bluetooth 5.3 or plugs in through USB-C, runs 10 hours of continuous play from its 3.7V 1000mAh cell, and refills in about 1.5 hours. Hall effect joysticks, a six-axis motion sensor, dual vibration motors, a dual-point touchpad, and a built-in speaker sit inside a moulded ABS shell. Mascom International stocks the Green Lion Striker Wireless Gaming Controller in Black and White at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Kenyan gamers who split their week between a PlayStation 5 in the sitting room, a laptop at the desk, and a phone during the matatu commute usually end up buying three separate pads. The Green Lion Striker Wireless Gaming Controller removes that cost. One unit covers PS5, PC, Mac, Android, iOS, and Steam Deck, and it switches between them without a USB dongle to lose. Students at Strathmore and USIU running Steam libraries, FIFA players in Nairobi estates, and office workers unwinding after Upper Hill shifts all use the same hardware. The 10-metre link lets you sit back from a wall-mounted television.
Where most Nairobi shops sell unbranded pads with carbon-contact sticks that start drifting inside six months, the Green Lion Striker Wireless Gaming Controller reads thumbstick position magnetically, so no contact surface wears down. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us stick drift is their single biggest complaint about third-party controllers priced under KSh 10,000. Firmware on this pad is upgradeable, meaning pairing and compatibility fixes arrive after purchase instead of leaving it frozen at launch behaviour. Visit Mascom International to hold the Green Lion Striker Wireless Gaming Controller before you decide, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya.
Common Questions About the Green Lion Striker Wireless Gaming Controller
Does this controller actually work with a PlayStation 5?
Yes. Green Lion lists PS5 among the supported platforms, alongside PC, Mac, Android, iOS, and Steam Deck. Pairing runs over Bluetooth 5.3, or you can connect the USB-C cable for wired play with no pairing step at all. Be aware this is a Green Lion third-party pad rather than a Sony-licensed DualSense, so a small number of PS5 titles that check for official hardware may behave differently. Everyday gameplay, menu navigation, and the built-in speaker all function as the manufacturer describes.
How long does the battery last on a single charge?
Ten hours of continuous play from the 3.7V 1000mAh cell, with a full recharge taking roughly 1.5 hours over USB-C. That covers a full weekend FIFA session, or about ten evenings of one-hour play before you reach for the cable. Charging draws DC 5V, so any phone charger, laptop USB port, or power bank you already own tops it up. You can keep playing while it charges by leaving the cable connected, which removes downtime mid-tournament.
What are hall effect joysticks and do they stop stick drift?
Hall effect sticks read thumbstick position using magnets and sensors rather than physical carbon contacts. Standard potentiometer sticks wear as the contact scrapes across a track, and that wear produces drift — your character walks or your aim slides while your thumbs rest still. Nothing rubs in a hall effect design, so drift caused by wear does not develop. This is the main reason the Striker outlasts cheap pads that often begin drifting within four to six months.
Can I use it for mobile games on Android or iPhone?
Yes. Android and iOS both appear on Green Lion's supported list, and pairing happens from your phone's normal Bluetooth settings menu. Games with native controller support, including racing and shooter titles on the Play Store and App Store, map their buttons automatically. Green Lion does not list a built-in phone clamp on this model, so pair it with a separate clip mount or rest the handset on a stand. Bluetooth 5.3 keeps the drain on your phone battery low.
Does it work with a Windows PC, a Mac, or a Steam Deck?
All three are supported. On Windows and Mac you can connect over Bluetooth 5.3 or plug in the USB-C cable for a wired link that needs no driver installation. Steam Deck recognises the pad through the same Bluetooth pairing menu, which helps when you dock the Deck to a monitor and want to sit further back. Upgradeable firmware means Green Lion can issue compatibility fixes for new operating system releases rather than abandoning the hardware.
Is it worth KSh 7,800 next to a Sony DualSense?
A genuine DualSense in Nairobi generally sells between KSh 11,000 and KSh 14,000, so the Striker saves you roughly KSh 4,000 to KSh 6,000. You give up adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, which only matter in a handful of PlayStation exclusive titles. In exchange you get hall effect sticks the DualSense does not include, plus proper Android, iOS, Mac, and Steam Deck support that a DualSense handles inconsistently. For multi-device households, the Striker covers more ground.
Does it have a headphone jack for team chat?
Yes. A 3.5mm TRRS jack sits on the bottom edge for wired gaming headsets with an inline microphone, and a dedicated mute button silences your mic mid-match without opening any menu. A built-in speaker plays game audio cues straight from the pad when you are not wearing headphones. Green Lion rates the audio link at 6 metres, shorter than the 10-metre control range, so move closer if voice chat starts breaking up.
How far from the television can I sit while playing?
The wireless link holds up to 10 metres, which covers almost any Kenyan sitting room, bedsitter, or hostel room layout. Walls and thick concrete cut that figure down, so expect shorter usable range through a partition than in open line of sight. If you want zero wireless latency for competitive matches, the USB-C cable turns it into a wired pad instantly. Audio over the 3.5mm jack is rated to 6 metres, so plan your seating around that shorter figure.
Who should buy this controller in Kenya?
Anyone who games across more than one device gets the most out of it. That includes students at Strathmore, USIU, and JKUAT running Steam or emulators on a laptop, PS5 owners who want an affordable second pad for two-player FIFA, and mobile players on Safaricom or Airtel data. It also suits parents buying a spare pad for the family television. Anyone who needs Xbox or Nintendo Switch support should look elsewhere, since neither platform is listed.
