There’s a range of Made for iPhone-compatible Apple-approved Bluetooth controllers available, all of which will work with the new Apple TV, but the SteelSeries Nimbus is the only controller that was designed specifically for the Apple TV in partnership with Apple.
As such, it’s been heavily marketed by Apple and it’s sold alongside the Apple TV as an accessory in Apple Stores. We went hands-on with the SteelSeries Nimbus to figure out whether it’s worth its $50 price tag and if it’s a must-have gaming accessory for the new fourth-generation Apple TV.
The Nimbus is similar in size and design to the Stratus XL, an earlier controller SteelSeries released. It looks like a cross between an Xbox One controller and a PlayStation 4 controller, with a shape that’s close to the Xbox controller but a PlayStation-style layout. It’s also very similar to many existing Made for iPhone controllers like the popular Mad Catz C.T.R.L.i.
