    An overall good controller. 3 months in I have zero problems with the controller itself despite playing with it for usually 3 hours a day. Although, the only reason I give this 4 stars is due to the sticks getting dirty easily

    The GameSir G7 SE is a stellar addition to the mid-tier gaming controller market, offering an impressive mix of comfort, customization, and performance. Tailored for both casual and competitive gamers, it holds its own against pricier counterparts. Build Quality and Design The first thing you'll notice about the G7 SE is its ergonomic design. The controller feels sturdy yet lightweight, with a textured grip that enhances comfort during extended gaming sessions. The matte finish minimizes fingerprints and gives it a premium look. The buttons, triggers, and analog sticks have a responsive, tactile feel, ensuring precision in fast-paced games. Customizability One standout feature is its customizable faceplate. GameSir allows you to swap out or even design your own plate, which adds a layer of personalization rarely seen at this price point. Additionally, the controller’s software lets you remap buttons, adjust stick sensitivity, and fine-tune trigger responses. This flexibility makes it a great choice for gamers who like to optimize their setup for different genres. Performance The G7 SE excels in responsiveness. The low-latency wired connection ensures minimal input lag, making it ideal for competitive gaming. The analog sticks are precise, and the triggers have just the right amount of resistance. It supports Xbox and PC platforms seamlessly, with plug-and-play functionality that eliminates setup hassles. Features The built-in mic mute button is a convenient touch, especially for online gaming. The controller also includes vibration feedback, which adds immersion to games without feeling overbearing. While it lacks wireless functionality, the wired design guarantees consistent performance. Value for Money Priced competitively, the GameSir G7 SE offers exceptional value for its features. It’s an excellent choice for gamers seeking a high-performance controller without breaking the bank. Pros Comfortable and ergonomic design Highly customizable faceplate and software Responsive analog sticks and triggers Reliable wired connection with minimal input lag Compatible with Xbox and PC Cons No wireless option Limited to a wired connection, which might not appeal to everyone

    Item is great haven’t had a single issue with the controller yet. Only thing I’d say that I hate is how apart the buttons next to the home button are. The Buttons just feels weird, but that may just be personal preference. Also the 1 month of ultimate can only be used on new accounts didn’t know that and almost threw out the card. Overall I feel like this controller will last me for quite some time. W purchase

    View and menu button placement is odd and right trigger is already starting to stick. The back buttons are cool tho. Hopefully hall effect means no stick drift within a year like all my official Xbox controllers.

    Bought the Gamer G7 SE for use with desktop computers. It works well and the controls are responsive. Using Linux, it is recognized and Steam allows for calibration and adjustment to dead zones. About the only thing I would like to see is the X logo glowing when it is plugged in, but that has no effect on gameplay. It looks nice, is well packaged, and has a good quality cable included.

    Wasn’t sure if would like this controller having only used standard controllers, and it took a minute to get used to, but the lack of stick drift makes this controller really great. It’s lightweight and smaller, but comfortable.

    Literally zero stick drift and no input lag. I have been using this controller for 2 years playing rainbow six siege and battlefield and I still have no problems with the sticks or buttons. 10/10 will buy again.

    This controller maybe only has 2 paddles or back buttons but the software makes this controller super programmable and even offers stick drift options within the menu and profiles that are easy to switch based on the game you're playing 10/10 value and not breaking the bank.
