About GameSir G7 SE Wired Controller
Overall Feedback:
80% positive
79% appreciated the long battery life, but 21% thought it was too short
I prefer the controller because it is extremely light and wired only, without a battery.
My controller's battery life is short, it lasted only for 11 months.
When I plugged the controller into my PC to do a firmware update, it started smoking.
After a few months, the right trigger stopped working.
79% liked the solid build quality, but 21% thought it felt flimsy
The remote's build quality was impressive, but it did not meet my expectations.
I have noticed that the controller lacks rubberized grips, which becomes noticeable during longer gaming sessions. This suggests that the build quality of the controller could have been improved by including rubberized grips.
I informed the support team about the issue and they asked me to try using a non Gamesir USB cable.
87% praised for its customization possibilities, but 13% found the options limited
The accessory is highly customizable for setting buttons, but it does not have elite controller settings for the sticks.
79% praised for its comfortable grip, but 21% found it awkward to hold
The controller's ergonomics feel extremely square and cheap.

The face buttons on this controller have a longer travel time and are a bit stiff compared to others.
79% appreciated the quiet operation, but 21% found it noisy
The headphone jack has a constant white noise that is not present on the official controller. It is hard to notice while playing a game with regular audio, but very noticeable on menus and in quieter parts of games.
In the video, I noticed that the left joystick of my controller squeaks very loudly when clicked down.
I find it impossible to play without accidentally pressing the back buttons of the controller which are located in the wrong place.
When I plug in a headset, the controller makes loud popping sounds that can be heard during the stream. Then it makes static noise.
80% appreciated the accurate sensor tracking, though 20% experienced lag
I am dissatisfied with the controller's triggers. How could a highly rated controller have such poor triggers?
I am already at sensitivity level 12 in Call of Duty Black Ops II and going higher didn't help.
80% liked the lightweight and portable design, but 20% found it bulky
During longer gaming sessions, I could have benefited from the extra comfort and grip that rubberized handles provide on the controller.
