Still loving it after buying it themselves; it has become their go-to and they plan to buy a second. Feels it has noticeably improved their NBA 2K26 play through the feel in the triggers and sticks.

“I am still absolutely LOVING the Gamesir G7 Pro. Has become my goto. In fact, I like it so much, I plan to buy a second one. Highly recommended. Bought on my own dime.”

A long-time four-paddle COD player who almost ruled it out, then found its two back paddles plus two extra shoulder buttons more ergonomic and better for shooters than four paddles.

“You do not need 4 back paddles. These 2 shoulder buttons are more ergonomic and just work better for fps shooters than 4 back paddles.”

Pre-ordered it and after thousands of hours of Warzone it is still like new with no stick drift. Finds stick precision, comfort and response perfect, and prefers it to their Tarantula Pro 8K, Scufs, Xbox Elite 2 and DualSense Edge.

“after months—and thousands of hours playing Warzone—it’s still phenomenal. It’s like new: no stick drift, and everything works perfectly, just like when I bought it.”

Sold it after an hour or two: it is much smaller than the Vader 4 or Elite 2, and with large hands their thumbs sat at an awkward angle.

Plays wired on PC and thinks it puts $200-plus controllers like Astro and custom Scufs to shame; it is now their main controller except for DualSense Edge games.

“I think this puts premium to shame, I always play wired with my pc though and prefer it that way. I’ve had like 3 200+ dollar controllers from astro’s high-end controller to custom scuffs”

A latency-sensitive FPS player who owns many pro controllers. After the GameSir Cyclone 2 and G7 Pro, the Vader 4 Pro feels sluggish; they find the G7 Pro has lower latency and more accurate sticks than anything near its price.

A week in after two Xbox Elite 2s: the D-pad and face buttons feel mushy, but the triggers and sticks shine with great accuracy, and $80 is very reasonable. Will judge durability after a year.

A few days in, finds it the perfect PC controller for the price, with extra shoulder buttons and much better wireless stick latency than the Cyclone 2. Only the Flydigi Apex 5 competes, at twice the price.

Thinks their new G7 Pro is built perfectly but its triggers stick out much further than other controllers', which is a deal-breaker for them.

Finds the G7 Pro's feel spot on next to an Xbox controller; the buttons are mouse-click style and the start/select buttons sit higher than they are used to.

“The buttons are different (more of a mouse click than what the regular Xbox controllers have). My only mild complaint with it is the start and select buttons are much higher than I am used to from any controller”

Likes the G7 Pro's mouse-microswitch buttons: loud, but crisp and clear about when they register.

“I have gamsir g7 pro wireless controller and a vader 4 pro with the mouse micro switches. They're loud, but I know exactly when I've hit them. They're crisp and clean, which I prefer.”

Loved the G7 Pro's microswitches so much that they modded their DualSense Edge to match.

“For the PC I have a G7 Pro with microswitches. I loved that so much that for Playstation I did the modification that you mentioned to its Dualsense Edge.”

Uses the D-pad for menus in Rocket League, and on the G7 Pro it kept registering the wrong direction. Thinks the controller is otherwise amazing, which made the bad D-pad all the more frustrating.

“I reflexively pressed towards the bat and I saw my settings change horizontally. It drove me crazy how amazing the controller is but for the Dpad it just doesn't work it's horrible.”

Their G7 Pro's D-pad is poor but functional, and a trigger started double clicking. Still rates it pretty good for the price compared with rivals.

“Mine started double clicking, so again, their quality control isn't perfect. But considering the price point and the controllers you can get at roughly the same price, it's pretty good.”

Used the G7 Pro for most of the year; it developed a centering issue after a short time, so they tried a Vader 5S. That went badly, and they are switching back because the G7 Pro is still the best controller they have used.

Never liked four back buttons, but has come to appreciate the G7 Pro's two extra top buttons (L5/R5) for weapon swap and reload in shooters. Missed them as soon as they switched back to a Vader 4 Pro.

“After getting used to L5/R5 on the G7 Pro, I found myself missing them when I swapped to the Vader 4 Pro on Xbox (via XB3), much like swapping to a stock controller with no back buttons.”

Wants to like the G7 Pro, but its lack of a rapid-fire function is a deal-breaker for them, and they keep going back to their Vader 4 Pro.

Likes the G7 Pro's bundled dock, great software and optomechanical buttons, and its light, Switch Pro-like size. Their first unit kept disconnecting from Windows and was replaced; the current one occasionally isn't recognised off the dock.

“The g7 comes with the charging dock and the software is great. Offers a lot of good customization and almost every button is optomechanical which I really like the feel of.”

After a month with the G7 Pro next to a year with the Vader 4 Pro, prefers the Vader. Credits the G7 for its bundled, better dock and swappable D-pad hats, but finds its Nexus software confusing despite the polish.

The G7 Pro's TMR sticks feel very good, but they value the Vader 5's tension adjustment more. GameSir replaced their G7 Pro after a trigger lock broke within about 15 hours of use.

“Only TMR sticks I’ve used is in the G7 pro, and while they do feel very good, the tension adjustment to me is more important on the V5, just really lets me dial in my aim/feel.”

Two G7 Pros failed the same way within a couple of weeks each: the right trigger's microswitch mode became intermittent and then stopped registering. A shame, they say, because the sticks, other buttons and software are excellent.

Returned the G7 Pro: button travel is too short, the D-pad fails on quick inputs and the controller felt small in their hands. Prefers the buttons on their EasySMX X10.

“The travel distance on all buttons is so low, dpad is specially horrible and fails you when you want to do quick inputs. The overall controller also felt quite small in hands.”

Hates the G7 Pro: the D-pad is nightmarishly bad and they found the sticks uncomfortable, though they accept others love it.

“I hate the G7 Pro, but other people swear by it, so could be another option. It has a nightmarishly terrible dpad though, and I found the sticks to be uncomfortable”

Tried the G7 Pro on Xbox: a good budget option if tested thoroughly, but the build quality was only OK, and the right trigger and A button didn't register consistently, which was a deal breaker.

Having used Xbox and DualSense controllers on PC and PS5, rates the G7 Pro the best so far, and calls the ZZZ edition the best value if the budget stretches.

Could not get impulse triggers working on PC with their original tri-mode G7 Pro in any mode, wired or wireless. It isn't their favourite, and they prefer a cheaper Machenike G5 Pro V2 for Forza.
