GameSir - G7 Pro Wireless Controller for Xbox Series X|S|One, PC, Android, TMR Sticks, Hall Effect Triggers, 1000Hz Polling Rate - Fallen Feathers

Where do I even start? The GameSir G7 Pro Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Edition is an absolute masterpiece — inside and out. The blue and gold design with the Wuchang silhouette and Dragon Scale-inspired texture looks incredible, and you can actually feel the detail on the layered resin grip. This isn’t just a pretty face, though. The TMR sticks are silky smooth, the Hall Effect triggers feel precise and satisfying, and the 1000Hz polling rate on PC means near-zero input lag. The four extra macro buttons and trigger locks are a bonus for competitive play. Toss in the charging dock, a braided USB-C cable, and a month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, and the value is unreal. If you want a controller that performs like a beast and looks like a collector’s item, this is the one. 10/10, no contest.

Design and added functionality are great. Very comfortable wireless functionality at about half the price of the other “pro” controllers.

TLDR: If you like standard/smaller Xbox style controllers, the GameSir G7 Pro is probably the #1 controller out there now and you should buy it. If you like larger controllers, you might want to look elsewhere. I've owned a ton of controllers since the days of Atari with the single stick and button. I remember when dual sticks on the Playstation controller made their debut. Let's not forget Duke, the massive original Xbox controller. So other than saying I'm old, I'm also saying that I've seen the best and worst in a controller over the decades. Controllers have gotten more comfortable and user friendly over the years, but they have also become more complicated and fragile as well. This is my first GameSir controller, though I have heard great things about them over the last few years, and I can say that GameSir, and the G7 Pro deserve to be at the pinnacle of any gamer's list for great controllers. Is the G7 perfect? For me, no. For most people, probably yes. Over the last few years, several companies have made innovations and mistakes that have made me compile a 'wish list' for the perfect controller (at least for me). The G7 Pro checks off more of those items than any single controller has to date, but unfortunately the one it doesn't is probably the most important, and that would be size. I've come to the understanding that a slightly larger than normal Xbox style controller is both the most comfortable for me for long time play, but also gives me the best results when gaming, meaning I don't hit the wrong button or something. So while I do not plan to continue using the G7 Pro, if you like the standard size Xbox controller, the GameSir G7 Pro should be your NUMBER ONE choice to check out. For the price, you get a stellar controller that is well made, responsive, and customizable. Simply Phenomenal. So you might wonder what items DOES it check off of my list? Well here are the main ones. 1. Responsive Buttons: No mush here. Nice and clicky but not TOO clicky. My other controller has nice clicky buttons but boy do they get annoying after a while. The G7 Pro has just enough dampening to soften the sound but not the feel. 2. Stick Feel: Beautifully tuned and smooth sticks. Here though, the G7 Pro is a bit louder than my other controller that also has drift-resistant sticks. I think it has to do with the face plate. 3. USB Cable Connector Guard: A favorite controller from a few controllers ago felt awesome in my hand, but was USB-C only. That would be OK if it was hardwired in with some good bend/strain protection. As it was they wanted you to be able to swap out cable lengths. What ended up happening though it that the plug on the controller got messed up and it couldn't be used any longer. If it had the system that GameSir put in for the G7, it would have worked beautifully. Oh, and it's removable, so if you use it wirelessly, it doesn't get in the way. 4. Rear Button Lock: My first controller with real buttons/paddles was the Elite and I liked that the paddles were removable because I almost never use them. Byond that, the Elite fell apart and died after only a year. With the G7 Pro, you have a nice switch to lock the grip pad buttons so they don't accidentally get triggered. On my current controller, I'm always accidentally hitting one or more of the buttons integrated into the grips and I hate it. If I were going to use ANY extra buttons, it would be ones up by the bumpers, and I love that that is where GameSir put the second set. 5. Good Software: While it may not be the most pretty or flash customization software platform on the Xbox/PC, it probably has the best customization options and functionality out there. Seriously, get the app for your Xbox and/or PC and use it. All kinds of nice tweaks you can make. And while this isn't a point on my list, because I don't REALLY care what my controller looks like; I have to say that GameSir, in general, and the G7 Pro - Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Edition is pretty snazzy. My wife's Executive Assistant who is a huge gamer, is going to LOVE this when I give it to her next week.

Controller movements are responsive. Quality material and feel. A

The D-pad doesn’t seem quite fitted for the hole and makes a scraping and creaking noise. The left trigger sometimes inputs on it own and is annoying.
