GameSir G8 Plus Bluetooth Mobile Game Controller for Switch & iOS & Android & Tablets, Wireless Gamepad with Hall Effect Joysticks/Hall Trigger, Play Minecraft, Genshin Impact, Call of Duty MobileCarbonfree Certified

This is actually a really great product, the phone fits quite comfortably in the spring grip and I didn't notice any input lag at all on the bluetooth connection. It's easy to use, except the grip on the analogue sticks feels a tiny bit awkward. I only sent it back because I didn't find myself using it much, but that's a me problem, not a product problem

I got this to use with my Zfold6 as I wanted a bluetooth controller due to where the usbport sits on the phone making it awkward to use with a plugged in controller. Had no issues with connecting to my phone and it now automatically connects when I open it to place my phone inside and disconnects when I remove my phone.Build quality is really good, controller feels sturdy and nice to use and my phone sits in it securely even with the case on. I've been using it with Xbox Gamepass streaming and with PS5 remote play and it has worked completely fine with both without needing any kind of additional setup.You will need to download the GameSir app to see the battery level but the battery is pretty good and doesn't need charging often. The app also allows you to map the buttons to profiles and set the back buttons so it's worth having.

This controller is perfect for mobile gaming, the buttons, triggers and joysticks feel really good and satisfying to use and theres no noticeable latency. The battery life is good it lasts a quite a while before you need to charge it again (around 8 hours which for me is fine since i don’t usually have such long gaming sessions anyways) and it doesn’t take too long to fully charge either (around 2 hours). Its comfortable to hold in the hand after you get used to it, i mainly used a ps5 controller before this which feels really skinny in comparison but this still feels comfortable. The controller also has unsymmetrical joysticks which i thought would be annoying since I’ve never used a controller like that before but after using it for a bit you get used to it and it’s fine. The only issue with this controller is the weight, its fine when you’re sitting down and using it or if you have a table to support your arms but when you’re laying down on your back it can feel a little heavy especially depending on the phone you’re using it with. The controller itself does have batteries since it connects with bluetooth which makes the controller heavier than the base GameSir G8. It’s easy to switch the buttons and joysticks, the controller comes with 3 extra joysticks you can use to tailor the controller to your liking which is nice. For the price you get a very well rounded product and I would definitely recommend.

Doesn't support xinput method. Mainly bought for honkai star rail but it doesn't work. Work around is to use the controller in ds4 mode which doesn't work in hsr or the gtouch mode which uses an overlay which could potentially get my account banned.

This controller works great with my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. The overall construction is very solid and premium-feeling, especially with the magnetic faceplates and swappable joysticks. All buttons feel tactile and responsive, and the hall-effect joysticks are incredibly nice. The joysticks feel nicer and are more accurate than my other controllers, e.g., my PS5 controller.The controller has additional features, such as per-button turbo and digital rapid trigger. By "digital," I mean it doesn't physically change the trigger's stop position, but registers the trigger as fully pressed when only slightly pressed down. It has other features as well, and all features can be configured without the app via the M key. The vibration motors are also quite nice and feel very punchy/tactile without being loud.The app is also pretty good, but that is why I wouldn't rate it a 5-star product. The app needs some refinement. The mapping feature works quite well, but that is where I had the biggest issues. Notably, with the right stick mapping system that emulates screen swipes via the right stick to move the camera/crosshair in FPS games. I could not get this feature to work well enough to feel like I am using a normal gamepad; it felt weird and had a certain stutteriness to it. This seemed worse with higher refresh rate games (90-120 fps). But, of course, this is only an issue encountered when specifically using the remap mode to play touchscreen-only games with the controller. If the game supports a controller natively (most do nowadays on mobile), then expect a wonderful, native-feeling experience with no issues at all. This is also something that could be fixed in the future, as it is definitely an issue with the app/software mapping system, not the controller itself.Overall, I'd definitely recommend this controller. All the games I play support it natively, so I don't need the app at all. This controller also works for other devices like PC, Nintendo Switch, and any iOS platform, so it's versatile too! It could be the only controller you ever need again.

I've been wanting to do a bit of gaming in the evening but always find myself pulled away from the computer by something or other. I also have a few games on android I've been meaning to get to but I can't deal with on screen controls. Have tried xbox & PS4 controllers with clips before but it was never comfortable.This + Console Launcher + Moonlight / Sunshine are an epic combination. The gtouch stuff works well to emulate touch screen controls where necessary. The only one I've had an issue with is Oddmar since it claims to support native controller but just doesn't seem to work; I suspect it's just that game though.If I had to list any issues:- The status LED is too bright in a dark room and can't easily be dimmed- Since the G8 plus doesn't have power passthrough I needed to grab a 90 degree usb c adapter to be able to charge the phone while playing- The removable face plates are a bit of a gimmick atm since there are very few options to replace them
