GameSir G8+ Bluetooth Mobile ControllerCarbonfree Certified

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.

Perfect, has interchangeable parts and is durable which is important for my son.

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 can play Xbox game pass games anywhere ! However get a good tablet/phone. Remote play via 5g works great on my iPhone 15 plus but on a crappy £60 tablet it lags and not playable. This is not the GamerSir issue though.

Worst product i have ever bought. Connected to phone just controlled phone, couldn't connect to any game. Gamesir app kept crashing. Garbage.Instructions and connection over complex. As fof the instructiond why such tiny text. Unacceptable.I've worked it IT and Telecoms for over 38 years and this is the worst product I've even bought. Controller itself seems very well made but thats no good.if you can't use it

This thing is absolutely brilliant. Can't fault it. It's perfect. I had a code for £30 pound off. And as I went to use it through my phone bonus. They had already sold out. But thought I'll just buy it any way.Ended up buying it. And I'm not disappointed. Really happy. If you like playing emulators, you'll really need this and enjoy it.But you can also play modern games to.It has a really polished feel and doesn't feel cheap. It's well made. And a lot of time and effort has gone into making this product. I'm really pleased with it. And super happy.

There are lots of mobile controllers to choose from and no two sites seemed to agree on which was the best so I was a bit scared but thankfully this is awesome. Works perfectly and even the packaging is great. Have not encountered any problems at all. Looks great, feels great and works great. Love it
