GameSir G7 HE Wired Controller, Officially licensed Controller for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows 10|11, PC, Video Game Controller with Hall Effect Sticks (White)

Extremely impressed with this controller - at a similar price to the official Xbox controllers it is superior in practically every way. The Hall effect sticks and triggers are superb, the mechanical face buttons are incredibly satisfying to click, the build quality is noticeably better than the official controllers, the rubber grips are a nice touch, the included USB-C cable is braided, a generous length, and has a Velcro cable tie attached to it. The wired connection is also incredibly low-latency - easily one of the most responsive controllers I’ve ever used. It even has additional QOL features such as built-in audio controls, and rear-mounted mappable L4 & R4 paddles (although they can only act as a secondary input for the standard Xbox buttons - you can’t map these paddles as individual inputs unfortunately - though this is a limitation of Xinput rather than a design issue). This controller demonstrates a level of quality that even the £100+ Xbox “Pro” controllers from Microsoft hardly come close to - and for less than half the price. And to top it off, you get a month of Xbox Gamepass ultimate included for free - awesome. The only thing I would say is that it unfortunately has no wireless capability, although this is due to Microsoft’s licensing policy rather than Gamesir themselves - so can’t really fault their product for Microsoft’s nonsense. I’ve never used a Gamesir product before, but I’m thoroughly impressed with this one and it deserves all the praise I’ve seen online - Microsoft could learn a thing or two from these guys. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for something a step above the official controllers… without even having to pay extra.

Honestly one of the best controllers on the market. There are many things the controller can do such a changing the deadzones on the controller and you can remap basically all the buttons. It also has paddles on the back which are great for racing games and also switching between guns. If you’re looking for a controller that doesn’t break down after one use and is relatively cheap this is the one. A lot people turn their noses to this because it isn’t wireless but with the massive cable which is over 2 meter long it really isn’t a problem.

Until hunting for a new controller I had no idea that hall effect sensors were a thing. I was looking to replace yet another victim of stick-drift. I must have lost ten controllers to this since the Xbox 360 came out. I was also looking for a controller with the additional assignable buttons undernetah the controller as they make great gear shifters in racing games. My Turtle Beach React-R was great until stick-drift happened (after 12 months). I'd never heard of GameSir and was skeptical, so I took a look at some YT videos before ordering... ... I quickly put the order in as the only "fault" people were stating was that this controller is wired. I actually prefer a wired controller as I play in one place anyway. Batteries are a pain in the arse to me, and an additional expense, even if just charging power. The controller feels great. It didn't feel smaller to me, as some say. The G7 HE is the only one of GameSir's controllers that I consider suited to a grown-up (i.e. Black finish, no silly colours). I didn't like the G7 SE's white and green look. The HE also has a rubberised finish which feels nice all night. As for it's hall effect thumbsticks and triggers - they feel sublime after my last controller. In driving games my throttle and braking has become considerably more precise. The triggers only reach 100% AT 100% trigger, unlike any other controller I'd used. This is something I was able to quickly set up in the simple and free Xbox App. You can completely eliminate any deadzone in there on triggers and sticks. Set it how you like it. You can select "hair trigger" if shooting's your thing. Shooting in GTA just became easier with this controller too. I use free aim and whilst partially depressing the trigger, you will aim the gun without firing (R'n'G), allowing you to run about whilst aiming. Taking the trigger all the way will then fire. On my last controller I was constantly either letting off shots or dropping the gun as I couldn't accurately hold the trigger in "the zone". Finally, something that nobody ever reports on, but I find an essential quality - Sound. Nothing special, nothing nasty. It's just fine and as you'd expect. I have one controller in my cupboard that was barely used because whilst it worked just fine, when talking with others in party chat, my voice came through to others like an old 1950's reording. Tinny and cheap sounding. I'm glad to report that nobody noticed any sound issues in party chat, I sound just fine. I did notice though that using this controller, mic-monitoring was turned on by default, allowing me to partially hear my own voice in the party chat. I hate this, while some choose it. I had to turn off mic-monitoring in the party options. On the whole, this has to be the best controller I've ever used. Including a Razer, which I loved at the time but even that got stick-drift. [EDIT] Since reviewing this, I finally got fed up over the mic-monitoring issue (having to turn it off each time), so I serached for a solution. I only found others with the same issue but no answer, so I decided to try GameSir's customer service. They responded to my email within 24 hrs and included an apology for the 'late' reply with a suggestion to upgrade to the latest driver (v2.4.0). Mine was on v2.3.3 and the app said that this was up to date. Luckily, the customer service response also included manual upgrade instructions, a video and the v2.4.0 firmware update - I was able to do this on PC and it has fixed my issue. In summary, this is an excellent controller. Now with the latest firmware my only issue has been fixed and I had a first class experience with their customer service support. At this price, it's an absolute no-brainer unless you really have an issue with it being a wired controller.

The GameSir G7 HE has been a really solid controller for me overall especially since I mostly play Apex Legends and Call of Duty. The Hall Effect thumbsticks are the standout feature aiming feels smooth, precise, and consistent, with no jitter or deadzone weirdness. Tracking enemies and making small aim adjustments feels easier compared to standard controllers. That said, there is one issue worth mentioning. Using LB for aiming down sights can be problematic as it feels overly sensitive. When holding ADS, the controller sometimes flickers in and out of aiming, almost like the input is being rapidly pressed and released. This can be frustrating in intense fights and may be a deal breaker. Aside from this LB sensitivity issue, the controller performs very well and offers great value for the price. Honestly one of the best controllers I’ve used the wire is no problem and since it’s detachable it’s perfect.

Bought to use on PC (including XBox PC games). Excellent quality, accurate and responsive. The fact that they include the magnetic sensors to eliminate stick drift at this price is great; makes you wonder why the console manufacturers can't do this as standard by now. And the micro switched buttons, instead of membrane type, are the cherry on top.

Xbox wireless controller'a benziyor tasarım olarak. Unutulmamalı kablolu bu, kablosuz bir oyun kolu değil. Onun dışında ultimate gamepass kodu vardı kutu içinde ama daha test etmedim geçerliliğini. Ben üründen memnun kaldım

Atendeu a expectativa

とても操作しやすいと思います。稀にドリフトが起こるのですが画面が切替わると直っています。ドラクエ10使用。

Works well, very happy with it. Not much else to say really. Good price, would recommend for a cheap, reliable, solid, Xbox controller.

I am utterly disgusted with the product I received. Made a good day turn into a horrible one. Would rate zero but that is not an option.
