GameSir G8 Galileo Type-C Mobile Gaming Controller for Android & iPhone 15 Series (USB-C), Plug and Play Gamepad with Hall Effect Joysticks/Hall Trigger, 3.5mm Audio JackCarbonfree Certified

This is a really great sturdy controller, once the phone is in there it feels like they were built together, which is not normally the case with these type of controllers. I use it for Ge-Force now on my phone and once its all fired up it basically turns my phone into a steamdeck. Works great with native android apps too (if they have controller support they will detect it and just work) and also using it with emulators.i have had quite a few of these sort of controllers over the years and this is probably the best one, especially for this price point when compared with some of the razer ones.

The media could not be loaded. Overall, the G8 Galileo game controller is a fantastic option for anyone looking to enhance their gaming experience. Its combination of comfort, performance, and customizability sets it apart from many competitors in the market. While there are a few minor improvements that could be made—such as additional grip options or more extensive RGB lighting features—the controller delivers on its promise and offers excellent value for money. Whether you're a casual gamer or looking to take your skills to the next level, the G8 Galileo is certainly worth considering.

The controller is light and feels very comfortable for someone with normal sized hands.I'd say the Face buttons are similar to the DualShocks 5, d-pad and bumpers are a bit 'clicky', triggers have near to no resistance and the back 'grip' buttons, as well as the joysticks, are similar to those on a steam deck.The 'grip' buttons can act as any other button on the controller and are easy to map.I have used this controller with my IPhone 15 (non pro). I find that Inputs are really responsive in games and I have not experienced any discomfort when playing more for than an hour but battery does seem to drain faster.Unfortunately, IPhones only work in 'PS Mode' so the app is useless and you can't simulate touch screen controls either. So no good for games without controller support.Additionally, when in PS Mode the two buttons glow White which are a little bright.While the controller can expand to fit a variety of devices it will not work with Thick cases.If you have a thin case this will work fine but due to the unremovable rubber padding around the USB C on the controller and the thickness of my regular casetify case (which is approx 3mm) the USB C does not go all the way into the phone.Overall, great controller if you're looking for non-Nintendo switch like joysticks, however, expect less functionality on iPhone.

Bought for some android gaming but especially streaming via Xbox or PC; works almost flawlessly for cloud gaming provising you have decent fibre internet speeds.Anything running on the phone native works great with the controller which is extremely comfortable, robust and correct size, an issue with the Nintendo Switch joycons for example.Honestly I would never consider playing proper android games before owning this but now it's like a having a fully powered console. Deffo worth £80.Minor cons would be very slight wiggle as it's not secured with any clips or something, and the phone connector is quite delicate but TBF I haven't had an issue to date.If you want a switch, ps portal or steam deck etc this isn't the same but covers much of the same potential at a fraction of the cost. The fact you don't need Bluetooth and batteries etc is excellent as well, it's effectively a large phone case with gaming controls. Awesome

This is great for playing mobile games or loading up retroatch and using some emulators on my phone. However I would say if you want something it is more compatible with tablets or want a wireless option the go for the g8+. I have both and the button response is great with little to no latency the setup with the app is straight forward and can be used with psn remote play xbox cloud gaming or even mobile games. Great controllers highly recommend.

The USB type c connector from controller to phone failed one day as i was putting the phone in, wasn't sure if i imagined it, seeing as i took it out and tried again and it worked, next day didn't work at all, 2-3 days after amazon return 30 day limit expired, contacted gamesir cs via online form, no response, tried again several days later, no response, sent an email 3 days ago, no response. Annoyed, annoyed and gutted, this product is 5 star no question, really really good at what it does, not compatible with a fair few android games, but amazing as a xbox controller proxy. Ironically, it (mostly obviously) feels solid, except for the weak point that is the connector that is :/I've seen how to get into the controller and reckon i could fix it, but that would of course void the warranty bit i can't get hold of anyone to arrange repair or replacement.Frustrating, disappointing, gutted. Would be 5 starts otherwise.

Lovely controller and an ok experience setting up and mapping keys. (Not amazing, but ok). If not for the following issue, I'd rate 5 stars, but literally unusable = no stars.Buuuut! The R2 trigger just straight up failed on day 3. Failure mode was constant triggering events, dozens of times per second, even without touching the controller. No ability to stop, reset, override or anything. The scant advice on Google didn't help, though it's clear this is not a unique issue. Reinstalling the software stopped it from auto-triggering. But depressing the trigger still registered as repeat presses dozens of times per second.No incantations or recipes appear to be able to fix this.Tl:Dr; Literally unusable after ~10 hours of typical usage

makes gaming a lot easier on the iphone.
