    Premium controller that doesn’t break the bank

    I preordered this controller & I was not disappointed. I have had an elite series two controller for a while & it started be wear out & I didn’t really want another series 2 controller because I have had two of them & the last one I got I ordered from Microsoft customized. After having a controller with paddles on the bottom I could not bring myself to go back to the standard controller. Then I come across this controller & I have to say that it’s very well made, the buttons sound like when you tap on your mouse. This controller is very comfortable to hold for long periods of time. The app that you use with this controller is like the Xbox accessories app but with more options for the controller. Highly recommend.

    This controller feels great. Super comfortable even after long sessions. The settings are easy to tweak and really let you dial things in the way you like. The software is amazing too, smooth and intuitive, which makes customizing everything even better. Definitely a step up from the elite controllers out there.

    The best controller out with a few minor gripes

    I've tested and played games with this controller on a Windows 10 and Windows 11 PC. This controller is a true 1ms latency lag, 1000hz polling rate controller. Some advertise this, but upon testing...don't actually come within 995+hz polling rate. This one does, and Gamesir did a great job with this one. Pros: - Great performance (1ms latency, 1000hz polling rate) - Wireless dongle performance is just as good as wired performance - Excellent TMR sticks, triggers and good ergonomics - Impressive design of the faceplate - Remappable back buttons - Four profiles to configure within the Gamesir app, with the ability to change profiles quickly during gameplay. Cons: - a few issues with software. Occasionally I've needed up to unplug and replug the controller for it to be detected on my PC. - Although you get four profiles to set with the controller, there is no visual representation of which profile you are currently on. Other controllers allow you to customize RGB to facilitate this, or a number of lights in the middle of the controller. Gamesir has done this as well. But with the G7 Pro, you'll need to press a button you remapped before to determine which profile is active, or check the app. - This controller is only wired on a Xbox console, with wireless option via dongle on more expensive, partnered versions for games like Wuchang Fallen Features and Zenless Zone Zero. Withholding features for more expensive versions of the same controller is not a good look. - This is a personal preference, but the controller is slightly smaller than the ergonomics of a Xbox controller. and I prefer the slight difference I have with the Gamesir Cyclone 2. Overall, despite the minor cons, this is the best performing controller on the market and you can't go wrong using it.

    Amazing controller for the price! The size of the controller is ever so slightly different from a standard Xbox controller. I recently broke my finger and was unable to use a standard controller. Even with a broken finger, I could easily play games.

    I am very happy with the quality of the controller, it feels better in my hands than a traditional one. I was weary of the rubber on the grips but it is actually very comfortable, the clicky buttons are a nice touch aswell. Im not usually someone who likes the disk instead of a D-pad but I dont notice any differences using this controller, and if I did it comes with two different D-pad types. The main selling point of this controller being the hall effect joysticks and the charging dock for me do not disappoint. I wont be using controllers from any other brand after this.

    Best alternative to the Elite controller

    This controller feels amazing right out of the box. The build quality is top-notch—solid, comfortable, and with just the right weight. The Hall Effect sticks are super smooth with zero drift, and the triggers feel incredibly responsive. I also love that it’s wired for zero input lag, and the 1000Hz polling rate really shows during gameplay. The customizable faceplates and remappable buttons are a nice bonus too. Works perfectly on my Xbox Series X and PC. Easily one of the best controllers in its price range.

    Another great controller that gamesir has recently released. This is a top contender for console players looking for a cheaper alternative to the wolverine v3 pro and elite series 2. I would recommend getting the best buy protection plan to cover the product in case you get drift or button malfunctions. The gamepad is comfortable and i csn use it for hours without any hand fatigue. It doesnt feel quite as premium as the elite series controllers but am ok with it. This is a controller that comes with a dongle but the wireless version is only available on PC. If you need wireless, I would suggest the series 2 or v3 pro pads. Other thab that, you most likely be satisfied with this purchase and make sure to get that protection plan so that you can game worry free in case something happens.

    Great product there’s sooo many customization options . I haven’t had the controller that long but I can tell you I have way more maneuverability with the analog sticks compared to other controllers. I have the elite controller , I zipped it back up in its hard case and haven’t touched it sense. (P.s it has stick drift) something I don’t have to worry about with this controller . I would buy again and I’ll never buy any other brand of controller .

    Wired controller for xbox. Download the software directly on the xbox market works best. I havent figured out a way to download the software to my mac to overclock controller to 1000hz (but i heard theres a way). Regardlesss, best contoller I've ever had so far. My previous was the Power A Fusion Pro which I really liked but this one is better. Defintely worth if youre a competitve gamer (Apex) or even casual.

    I’ve had a scuff, Xbox elite 2, and a battle beaver controller. This is cheaper than all 3 and light years ahead of those controllers. Best thing I ever bought for gaming hands down.

    Perfect Controller – Exactly What I Needed Picked this up from Best Buy and I couldn’t be happier. The controller feels solid, responsive, and comfortable during long gaming sessions. Buttons are smooth, joysticks are precise, and there’s no input lag at all. Setup was quick and easy right out of the box.

    Definitely a great all around controller that doesn’t break the bank. I’m guessing that some of you are deciding between this and the Wolverine v3 pro. I would say that you cant go wrong with either one. The gamesir is smaller and has the two back buttons along with buttons on the top edges. The controller is also smaller in size and might be more comfortable for some. I have both and love them. Best Buy also has a great return policy if you are experiencing stick drift of any kind. I wouldn’t purchase anywhere else cause it could be a real hassle to do a return. I don’t think anyone would be disappointed with this purchase.

    Best pro controller

    Best controller I’ve ever owned and I’ve had multiple pro controllers including the elite series, battle beaver, hypr to name a few and this beats all of them and also has great software to fine tune everything on the controller. TMR sticks are incredible, digital tap buttons and triggers feel good and the back buttons as well. Feels higher quality than my 300 dollar battle beaver. Will be buying this controller again when I need to with out a doubt.

    Almost a perfect controller.

    Probably the best controller you can get for this price point. It's important to note that the d-pad is a bit lacking. It can be a bit sensitive for activation, and it feels like it wobbles a ton. There are some DIY mods you can do to this controller to alleviate the problem. Just google search "g7 pro O-ring mod reddit". It doesn't completely solve the problem, but it alleviates it to some degree. Outside of the poor-quality d-pad, everything else is flawless. This would've been a 10/10 controller if the d-pad was implemented well.

    Excellent controller! Light weight, and feels good in my hands. I have issues with my hands and this controller helps me game longer since it doesn't hurt! I love how the button feels and the feedback is spot on! I know exactly what I am press when I do and that the press connectioned correctly each time. I highly recommend this controller, especially for the price!

    Sticks feel great, crisp actuation on all button presses, and the charging dock allowing the dongle to be connected inside was an outstanding idea! This controller only has 2 back paddles, so I main this controller for single player and non-shooter games. I use a different controller for FPS games, but this will definitely be all some users would need!

    Solidly built controller joysticks feel tight buttons feel solid and only real complaint id say is the d pad is very soft and easy to accidentally input and with all the buttons and controller feels a bit heavier than a standard controller but is still comfortable and Id recommend this to others.

    Finding a good replacement for my Xbox Elite Controller 2 seemed difficult until I found this, overall I've been really happy with this controller and the issue I did have with the right trigger was resolved very quickly by their support. I'd for sure get another controller from this brand in the future.

    Bad D-pad even worse mic input.

    Controller price and underside buttons make this controller worth it. However, The d-pad is awful. Too many mis clicks and it’s mushy instead of a snappy. Very often a press in one direction also triggers one of the adjacent buttons. Would not purchase again. Mic connection is also terrible. You need to turn mic monitoring down all the way in order to not hear your own voice echo. This can make it hard for people in your own party to hear your voice.
