Caliber Advantage mobile gaming controller : The Caliber Advantage from iFrogz is a combination mobile gaming controller and protective case for Apple devices that incorporates the newly announced iOS 7. Unveiled at the Worldwide Developers Conference, the iOS 7 Game Controller API (Application Program Interface) will allow both large and independent developers to utilize standard access to game controller functionality on Apple’s portfolio of mobile devices, including the iPhone 5. Previewed at the CES 2013, the Caliber Advantage mobile gaming controller was created to address growing demand for the ability to develop and play more immersive games on Apple’s operating system, iOS 7.

Compatible with the Apple iPhone 5 and the fifth-generation iPod touch, the Caliber Advantage mobile gaming controller provides 360-degree motion control with viewing options in both portrait and landscape position. Gaming action is made possible through left and right slide-out analog controls that feature responsive keys for an accurate, high-quality gaming experience. Available this fall for a price of $ 59.99, the Caliber Advantage will also feature an integrated lithium polymer battery offering 10-12 hours of continuous play without the need for a charge.
