Logitech may not be the first to deploy a specialized game controller onto iOS 7 devices, but its PowerShell game pad certainly seems like a fierce contender to the crown of best third-party iOS controller.

PowerShell offers powerful, console-style controls and comes with an integrated 1500 mAh battery which increases the available power capacity of your device. iPhone 5, iPhone 5s and iPod touch (5th gen) are supported.

“With controller-compatible games, there's no extra software to install. Just download a favorite and go. Check the App Store frequently for the latest controller-compatible game releases,” says Logitech.

Priced at $99 (€73), the PowerShell has a streamlined design, making it pleasant to hold, and that includes your pocket too. The hardware has a 3.5mm headphone adapter with an angled design to keep the wires out of your way while you game.
