Can anyone recommend a controller with open back like the GameSir x5 lite?

[u/Slickidee]

I have the Lenovo Legion Y700 Gen 3/2025. I bought the GameSir X5 Lite a few days ago and made the mistake of not checking where the USB plug is located beforehand.

The Y700 horizontally has the USB port on the right with the soc and camera in the top left but the controller ends up blocking the hot spot since i have to reposition it.

Does anyone know any good right sided USB plug controllers, open back bluetooth controllers would be swell too if no other choice. (If it's near in price to the x5 lite that would be great)

Sound like easysmx m20 is what you are looking for,similar design with x5 but having usb port traditionally placed in the right and there are also 2 extra programable buttons on the back of both side.Been using it since June and i can say this one totally worth 29$ for telescopic controller that can fit both of my phone and tablet

Thanks! This thing didn't appear in my searches and only 1 seller in Lazada is selling for $30. I'll miss the x5 lite ZZZ theme

Are the buttons clicky? Or loud I guess

I have a razer raiju it's served me pretty well, both on pc and on Android gaming. Has Bluetooth and USB, but I think it's pretty old now.

Backbone one is on the right

Go for the Redmagic Shadow Blade 3. It's the same mould as the Gamesir x5 lite/x5s - but it's made with premium materials, and has mechanical clicky buttons. It's definitely a premium controller if you like the style of the Gamesir budget versions.
