Great and thorough review! I ordered it as the gamesir x2 pro was pretty great but it did feel like holding a brick. The Galileo looks a lot more comfortable and the hall effect+headphone jack is a great addition. Will have to buy a case for this though, was hoping it'd be bundled in like the gamesir x2 pro did.

Been waiting patiently for you to drop this review. Xbox side of the house and android user. Going to mention that I nearly lost my left thumb when younger which left me with limited movement and no feelings in the end/tip all around the nail area. When it comes to game pads they last between 3 to 4 months before stick drift is the main feature. When you did the all budgets xbox controller guide I was proud to share I was in the poor man's segment having used all the recommended victims (turtle, power to name a few) until the Gamesir G7 SE vid dropped. The next day amazon dropped that game changer off(pun intended), which is still going strong(feels as good as the day it landed) with non of the usual stick stick and drift. The G7 SE impressors me so I'll be looking to aquire the G8 after the holiday experience passes by. Hope you can tell what I think of the review, thanks for sharing... "👍"...

I’ve seen other reviewers say that Backbone has a lot more support natively and just works more times than this, while if something doesn’t work here you kind of need to fiddle with manually mapping. I love the Hall effect sticks and ergonomics, but the user experience means a lot to me too. I heard the software app is a little more seamless on Backbone too. So knowing all that … I kind of pause and am not buying either until I figure out what’s more important to me. I currently have the Kishi and that’s gotten the job done at least.

I have one coming in today, may delete or just add onto this comment but this was one of the better reviews I found however only found it after I ordered 😂 Looking forward to it as the iPhone i got is new to me too and one of the games i enjoy is crossplay but more i think about it the more it makes sense that i would want to play it on mobile when possible rather then PC, touchscreen just isn't that good and this solves that problem. The big question I'll be finding out is how well iPhone 15 (smaller, standard model) work with cases and this device as i've heard mixed assessment of that, seen people using it with some cases if not all, can't know until i try but from specs i saw on GameSir's website there is a possibility i may be good even with the bigger more protective case I initially opted for as phone itself is bit thinner then Pro options, worse comes to worse I need to go shopping for a thin case that still offers some drop protection.
