    Really like this controller. It's very comfortable, and the buttons feel good. Very happy that it also comes with a dock and works great across my devices. Recommended!

    Hall effect sticks and triggers which almost guarantees no stick drift, controller feels comfortable but also feels like it’s worth something. I’ve spent $150-200 on other competitive style controllers like the Scuf Envision Pro, and the Razer Wolverine controllers, and the fact that the Gamesir at just $50 can literally do the exact same thing and feel better is incredible.

    I got this for my Switch 2 as I am not going pay $85+tax for Nintendo branded and glad I did. You may need to update the firmware as it was acting a bit crazy jumping areound on the screen from time to time. After the update all great. Feels of great quality and for a good price. Software is even good. I am not a fan of the color to be honest, I dont care that much as i dont look at it while playing. Easy recommend if you dont want to pay the Nintendo tax.

    Solid ugly controller with some limitations

    It's a solid controller with hall effect thumbsticks and hall effect triggers. The shape is more like Xbox controller than say 8bitdo or PS5. I only dislike three things. One, the exclusive best buy color is pretty ugly. Two, the front face is pretty big/broad, so the midsection of the controller feels a little chonky. Three, there is no way to store profiles on how to program the back paddles. Other controllers with back paddles allow different profiles to duplicate different buttons, like fortnite jump and slide buttons are different than call of duty jump and slide buttons. No way to create a profile for each game layout.

    I had this for a couple of weeks and so far it's been good. I've primarily use it for my PC but I picked this up since it can also be used with the Nintendo Switch1/2

    4.5 stars. It works great on my switch and PC. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because you can’t use the Bluetooth connection on pc, you have to use a dongle. It took some web searching to figure that out. But overall I’m happy with it.

    Worth every penny. This is way better than the xbox controller, which is in the same price range as this one. The trigger stops help tremendously in certain shooting games. Some say you can push past the trigger stop, but for me, they are pretty firm and solid. The lighting is also good and the ability to troggle vibration intensity. And you get a charging station, how cool is that! I did get some connection issues with the 5g dongle once, however. Not sure what was the issue.

    This controller started off so strong. But now I'm having input issues. I'll move the joysticks and it doesn't register. I tried switching to my old Xbox controller and now it works fine and I can play normally.

    The overall grip and feeling The controller is great. Battery life seems okay and the charging station that comes with it is great. The one drawback is and loses connectivity from time to time though quickly picks back up and doesn't bother me much. I still feel like this is a much better option than the Nintendo wireless controller sells for twice as much.

    I have many many mid-low tier controllers under $70. This is a very good controller with membrane buttons and adjustable trigger. This is my 5th supernova. I liked this new color combination and this was on good sale. This is my current daily controller for switch 2. If you like mechanical buttons, get a cyclone 2 from the same company instead.

    The feel and build quality of this controller is almost too good to be true. It has more features than most "budget" controllers and a cool charge dock. You can remove the faceplate and swap the ABXY buttons however you'd like. Downside for me is, I bought 2 of them and they only stay connected to my Switch 2 for maybe 30 to 45 at a time via Bluetooth. After that it disconnects and shuts off. The USB dongle does NOT work on Switch 2. You can connect to the dongle but the controller will not do anything. USB dongle works fine on PC though.
