The $69.99 Luna controller isnt cheap, but it delivers rock-solid performance.
It was also incredibly easy to pair with the gaming service and offers reduced latency compared to other controllers.
Certain Android phones also are compatible.

Keep in mind that you dont need the Luna controller to play games on Amazon’s service.
You could also use acompatible Bluetooth controller, such as the DualShock 4 or Xbox Wireless Controller.
Serious gamers even could connect a wireless mouse and keyboard.
Of course, when you go Bluetooth, you give up the reduced latency.
Although the lag was too small to quantify, it definitely was noticeable.
It also felt awkward using the small iPad screen with a full-sized mouse and keyboard setup.
I also tried an Xbox Wireless controller.
It resembles the classic Nintendo Switch controller design and weighs a hefty 285 grams.
But the build quality was as solid as an Xbox Wireless Controller.
I have big hands and had no problem grasping the Luna controller while playing the racing gameGrid.
There are menu buttons clustered around a Luna button that lights up when you use the gamepad.
A tiny microphone above the Luna button lets you use Amazon Alexa with the controller.
On the bottom lies a headphone jack.
On the side is a USB-C port for wired connections and charging its rechargeable batteries.
Its a well-made controller that offers an easy setup and reduced latency through a Wi-Fi connection.
