Reviews around quality (3.78 of 5)

  • On the bright side the controller is decent build quality and the dpad works great...
  • Really amazed by this controllers, they were cheap but high quality, the buttons are pretty fancy, transparent with some color lights inside
  • Good quality controller for the price, comes with a nice little phone attatchment and the buttons light up for gaming in the dark, d-pad is a little hard to differentiate between the
  • Had the same issue with a much more pricey 3rd party PS3 controller back in the day: great build quality, solid buttons... but analog sticks with deadzones for days so much that they were nigh unusable
  • but the a, b, x, y button won't work on my laptop or my Samsung galaxy s7 edge

Reviews around game (3.72 of 5)

  • Excellent game controller for both windows and android at a reasonable price.
  • Ordered a 2nd one for my fiance (who mashes buttons like she's trying to push them out the back of the controller when games get intense, and her's is still working great also :) ).
  • So far I've played Dark Souls 3 and Doom (2016) and both games played just as well as on my Xbox 360 Afterglow controller.
  • Makes FPS games a little difficult because I can't seem to get the aim timing right.
  • I bought a second controller so I can enjoy my games with a friend, and I will be buying 2 more soon for some 4 player mayhem

Reviews around feel (3.53 of 5)

  • I like the feel of this Game Sir G3w Gamepad, I got this as second one , for my Windows 7 PC , I don't know anything about Computers
  • I have also purchased a competitor controller and it was very cheap feeling, almost like a happy meal toy I will be returning that one and keeping this power house instead
  • This would complement their otherwise responsive, clicky feel
  • I also like it since you can use it with a playstation but the overall feel of the controller is much more comfortable!
  • On the plus side, if you DON'T use the triggers often, the controller is great - responsive buttons, good feel, excellent grip with enough room for larger hands to feel a bit more comfortable than many controllers I've used

Reviews around design (3.44 of 5)

  • You can tell that build quality is marginal, and 3/4 LED’s under the joysticks were burned out when i opened it, but for the price I can’t complain
  • it is a huge improvement over using the touchscreen controls and overall, a well-designed controller.
  • I like this controller for the price but the analog sticks have deadspots, the R1 and L1 triggers feel like legos, the design is a little hard on the hands and the D Pad is a little squishy
  • The d-pad is great, or at least far better than many controllers, the design is superb, the buttons feel very nice, and the controller body feels pleasant and sturdy.
  • The buttons have a proprietary shape, so even though this controller is very similar to a ps4 controller, the buttons are not interchangeable like some knock off designs

Reviews around light (3.43 of 5)

  • The lights on the joysticks stopped working immediately, which wasn't a big deal for me, but now the controller is falling apart.
  • The pad looks gorgeous in dark light, the LEDs pop out and make this controller feel a bit more premium than it actually
  • The lights under the buttons and analog sticks are great also
  • The only odd thing I noticed about its build is that the left analog stick, the red light inside is inconsistent; sometimes it's much brighter than the right stick, sometimes part of the see-through piece is brighter than the rest and it depends on where the stick is being pointed
  • The lights are bright & beautiful, and the abilty to turn then off & on is great

Reviews around stick (3.27 of 5)

  • I use it primarily just for American Truck Simulator while waiting to afford a wheel and I can say the biggest problem with the controller for ANY GAME is the sticks
  • (some knockoff controllers have sticks that only work in the cardinal directions, so FPS games become impossible
  • it feels great on the hands... but bad joy sticks, not that they feel bad, but the sensitivity is bad, it's fixed unlike xbox controllers.
  • They brag the controller lights up but the right stick is entirely dark
  • For instance games that require steady aim or precision the sticks are too stiff and fail in that regard

Reviews around product (3.25 of 5)

  • i love this product but sadly it does not work for what i needed it for i wanted this for my raspberry pi 3 and it didnt work i dont know if i need to download something or
  • I recommend this product if you do not wish to spend too much on a controller.
  • if you know how to do that means the D-pad works no worries of pushing
  • Keep in mind that this is a mini usb connected device with a permanently attached 20 inch cord coming from the back of the controller to end with a male mini USB & with an additional 5 ft cord with a male USB on one end & a female mini USB on the other for connecting to a PC.I have an LG V20 with a C connector that it will not work on, although I tried to use a female mini USB to a male C connector adapter that didnt work
  • Let me start out by saying that the Gamesir, is the best third party product on the market currently

Reviews around start (1.95 of 5)

  • So far I've played Dark Souls 3 and Doom (2016) and both games played just as well as on my Xbox 360 Afterglow controller.
  • You can tell that build quality is marginal, and 3/4 LED’s under the joysticks were burned out when i opened it, but for the price I can’t complain
  • About 2 months later the stick started randomly sticking, then a month after the trigger broke during normal play
  • Dead zones, etc- start and select button are mushy, making pressing them a chore, they'll need to be pressed down all the way due to this, and it's a lot slower than with console controller start/select
  • I think it would be more intuitive if the Start and Clear buttons were swapped (I play a lot of dark souls, pressing start to enter the item/equipment screen is a common thing)

Reviews around bite (1.86 of 5)

  • It's a bit strange since it's flat like a SNES controller but dpad, face buttons, triggers all work nicely
  • The first one I had broke after just about 7 months, the right trigger breaking a bit of the plastic holding it to the spring, rendering the button usable, but barely
  • The analog sticks are a bit strange because they have to fit the low
  • I have confirmed that this controller will not work with Windows 7 (64 bit)
  • Gamesir were kind enough to replace the broken controller, which was a greatly appreciated bit of service

Reviews around zone (1.14 of 5)

  • Mine came with dead zones on both sticks, mostly limited to the right hemisphere on each
  • The analog sticks work better than the ds3 in my opinion with no dead zone as well as being very responsive
