First off, im coming from a Xbox Elite Wireless Core 2 and I'm basing my review as a direct comparison to that controller. Also, I only play with my controller connected (for input lag and polling rate.) 1. This controller is lighter but by no means "cheaper" feeling. Controller is light and airy in the hand has a slight flex when holding it tight in tense situations but after 4 months it's still holding up. (I GRP MY TROLLIE REALLY HARD) 2. software is amazing! The amount of tweaking and customization ur able to do is fantastic. 3. Accessories for price. All the accessories that gamesir gives u for the money u pay is fantastic and u actually feel like ur getting a good bang for ur buck. 4. Controller plays extremely responsive. This is where gamesir genuinely shined above my CE2. I can definitely say that gamesir has what feels like a more responsive, twitchy, fast controller. Going back and forth between the 2 for few days I felt like I could tell a difference between the two in how I was preforming in tense scenarios. 5. Finally last but DEFINITELY not least. There is no stick drift. (Even at 0% deadzone settings) I know cuz that's how I play. And even my CE2 had drift out of the box. I tried 1 more and the same thing so I don't belive it was a faulty troller. I think Microsoft just claimed* 0 deadzone but im sure it came with certain setting caveats. One of them probs being u didn't actually lower ur deadzone setting to 0 LOL. BOTTOM LINE. IF UR ON THE FENCE ABOUT THIS TROLLER DONT WAIT. U WILL NOT REGRET IT. π₯ Read more

Not often I leave a review, but this seemed worth it. My 10+ year old Xbox controller was heading towards the end of its life on the A button. This controller is nice, and feels very precise. The throttle and steering control in ACC is significantly better. The rumble feels better as well. very nice precise clicks on Dpad & A B X Y. 4 extra programmable buttons if you need them. Wireless charging base with auto on/off features that holds the 2.4Ghz adapter (which I had to use over Bluetooth for the software to detect the controller) frees Bluetooth bandwidth on system board and charges and connects with single USB cable. Software allows customization of trigger & joystick axis. I have them opened fully as there is no jitter and the movement seems consistent and even across the movement range. It has a movement option (gyroscope) & an audio jack with mute and volume controls, but I'm not really interested in those at this time. Read more

Edit: 5 stars after receiving new controller. Everything works as it should with no issue, right trigger stop feels solid. Top tier controller here. I have to preface why i'm not giving this controller 5 stars. The original controller I received was defective and had a right micro switch that would not read consistently after a day or so of use. I had to complete a return, and a month or so later I've decided to give it another go. It's been rare for me to get multiple defective units back to back. So here we go. The controller feels great in hand. I'm able to use my custom faceplates from gamesir like I can on the G7he & se, and they fit perfectly with the only exception being the cross d-pad being the only one which fits in the faceplate. Which to me is perfectly fine. It looks wrong on the G7pro, but perfect on the SE/HE face plate. It's also awesome for fighting games and platformers. Which is a important feature I feel in a pro controller. A lot of companies skimp here. Another feature Gamesir did not cheap out on is the software used to customize the controller. I've had over a dozen controllers in my hands the last few years, and this suite can not be beat. Easy to use and very user friendly. Can save 4 profiles and switch on the fly. Good stuff. The thumbsticks feel great, and have a very high resolution and bit rate. A little loose for my liking, but it's comparable to the Gamesir Cyclone 2. Which is great because the sticks on these controllers are maybe the best at maintaining a zero dead zone without stick drift. I've purchased many, many controllers over the past few years. A lot of controllers can boast about zero dead zone's with no drift. Many do not live up to that title without some kind of software algorithm. Wireless connectivity has been rock solid holding near 1000hz with little to no jitter on polling tests and no random disconnects. Wired is a bit quicker as to be expected. As long as the trigger stops hold up to prolonged use i will put this controller on a top tier list. However if you read around on reddit you see many of the same complaints. So it is a known issue. So far the 2nd control is holding up. If it's still holding strong in a month or two I will upgrade my rating to 5 stars. As it is exceptional when all works as expected. I don't have an xbox so I wasn't able to give it a test there, but you have access to all the same features outside of gyro control. So I doubt anybody will be disappointed with it outside of this model needing to be wired for it to work on XBOX. Read more
