Perfect + amazing value
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

A Decent Controller that works with USB C IPhones.
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.

Absolutely fantastic
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.

If you want to play COD Mobile with a Samsung S23 Ultra, don't get this controller
I got this GameSir controller as a replacement for my Backbone controller, as it had stopped working. I use the controller for playing COD Mobile exclusively. I've seen good reviews for the GameSir G8 Galileo on Youtube and other places so I decided to give it a go. Initially, the signs were good. Nice packaging and the controller itself feels very solid and looks good. After setting up the GameSir G8, and using it to play a few matches on COD Mobile, I've decided to return it. It just isn't suited to this particular game. When attempting to fine tune the mapping, I found the GameSir app very difficult to open in COD Mobile. Even after updating everything, it was still a struggle to open it. It seems the app isn't suited to my Samsung S23 Ultra phone. After eventually managing to open the app and fine tuning the mapping of buttons and triggers, it just doesn't work that well. Buttons and triggers can be unresponsive. If one moves quickly between controls, there can sometimes be a lag. The double click on buttons regularly becomes confused. Additionally, the control mapping often doesn't start up correctly, resulting in a failed match and having to restart my phone. It's ended up being a lot more effort than it's worth. This controller may be good for other games, but for COD Mobile, it's poor. I'll be going back to a Backbone controller.

Best and affordable controller
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.

Awesome Controller
Been using this controller for about 2 months on an almost daily basis and I am very happy with this purchase. This product has been used with my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra which fits perfectly, the only niggle I have is that I have to take off my phone case to get my phone to fit to the USB-C connection but that's not a real issue. I have been using this to play Xbox remotely, its basically plug and play and I have experienced no latency issues. Controller feels high quality with a replaceable magnetic faceplate and thumbsticks. Highly recommended.

Unreliable trigger quality
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

This is what a telescopic controller should be...
To start with I have tried a few different telescopic controllers, and have fount that this is one of the most comfortable ones I've used. When it comes to gaming, my preferred way to play is big screen TV, comfy sofa to sink into, and my XBOX series X, as I'm a casual console gamer and like to game in comfort. In addition, I have very large hands and thick fingers, so a larger controller is much more comfortable to me. However, since having a baby and the Xbox being in the room he sleeps (we share a house with family), and the only time I can game is when he's asleep, means that I can't play in my preferred way. Since discovering remote playfor my XBOX though, this has been a game changer, allowing me to game when I can. It is clearly different than my preferred way of gaming, but it's still good to have the option to play on my downtime!! With the introduction out of the way, I will get into the details. This is amazing. Period. The fact I can use a case of 1 mm thick and it still works is awesome. The fact that it's a wired connection is fast and snappy, and doesn't affect the lag like Bluetooth controllers can, and the feel is high quality. It has everything you need to play on XBOX, PlayStation and emulators, though I don't do this part, only XBOX remote play. The feel of the co roller is compact enough that it doesn't feel bulky which is a good, but a tiny bit bad which I'll explain. It does feel like a 3/4 size controller. But with me having large hands it still feel a little cramped. Mainly the location of the D-pad and the right stick. They are a little bit too close to left stick and face buttons respectively. This is a tiny issue as I mentioned, as I just work around it by shifting my grip a little. Anyone with small, medium or even slightly large hands will feel comfortable using this, for even long gaming sessions! The sticks are buttery smooth due to the anti friction rings, and the face buttons and D-pad have a weighty pressing feeling, and you know when you've pressed them with the satisfying feedback of each press. The bumpers and triggers are console quality and have a perfect resistance when pressed, and again, you know exactly when you've pressed them as they have great feedback also. There are map able buttons on the hand grips but I don't use them, but they are easy to program and change on the fly should you need to. To summarise, this is an excellent wiece of kit that will absolutely improve your mobile gaming experience ten fold, and is absolutely worth the $79.99 price tag. UPDATE: I've been using this controller for 14 months on a very regular basis, and it has been incredible for that time. The controller has held up very well, the buttons still just as responsive as the day I got it, the connection is still flawless, and feels amazing still. But the other day I came to use it and the pass through charging has stopped working. It has worked every time from day one (with dozens and dozens of times I've pass through charged my phone), but now it has finally gone to sleep. Though this is a negative, it could be the hundreds of hours I've used it that it's worn out, but I just wanted to give my long term update in case you are unlucky enough (like me) to have this happen to you and what to maybe expect after over a year of heavy use. I can still use every other aspect of the controller with no issues, just I have to think ahead about charging my phone before and after a gaming session, as the pass through has stopped working and my phone doesn't charge whilst using the controller anymore. I kept the rating at 5 stars though, as it could be an isolated issue, or a line run problem. But just in case you're a heavy user, this is something to consider, especially when traveling, where charging your phone may be more limited.

耐久性がありません
購入して3週間でusb端子が壊れて新品に交換。その時の対応は早くて○ですが、3ヶ月して今度は左のトリガーとスティックの反応がおかしくなり、キャリブレーションを実行しても治らず。騙し騙し使っていましたが、とうとう使いものにならなくなってしまいました。1万円出して3ヶ月で壊れるのはちょっと…出来が良いだけに、非常に残念です。 追記 レビューを見たメーカー様からすぐに連絡があり、まだ保証期間内との事で対応して頂きました。とても良いコントローラなので、また使う事ができ感謝しております。

يد ممتازه و جوده تصنيع عاليه الازرار فيها ممتازه
يد ممتازه و جوده تصنيع عاليه الازرار ممتازه كانك تلعب بيد سوني بس يبي لك تعدل dead zone حق القير عشان يكون تصويب ادق في تطبيق gamesir و الحلو بعد انه يجي معاها اشكال مختلفه للقير يمديك تبدل بينهم بالي يريحك و فيها ازرار خلفيه و يمديك تضغط R3 بالقير. بس ملاحظه اذا بتلعب remote play من تطبيق سوني ف اهي تتعرف على انها يد سوني ٥ اذا تطبيق جوالك ما يدعم يد الفايف ما راح تقدر تتحكم فيها بيكون الحل اهو انك تشتري تطبيق مدفوع اسمه pxplay. اما العاب الجوال ف اذا لعبه تدعم اليد بتكون تجربه رهيبه اما الالعاب الى ما تدعم مثل ببجي بتحتاج تشغلها من تطبيق gamesir و تنزل زر زر على شاشة و تضبط تحكم بنفسك، عن نفسي ما عجبني قروشه بس يجي منه اذا قدرت تضبط تحكم صح.

High quality, console like, easy recommend
I bought this mainly to play mobile FPS. I come from a console and I recently started playing mobile FPSs like the newly released COD Warzone and Farlight. To be honest I sucked with touch controls and I need something that'll get me the console feel that I'm familiar with, and I'm glad to say that the GameSir G8 has achieved it for me. I'm playin better ( just won 3 games in a row haha) and I'm enjoying my time with this. Bought for an Android phone, no issues so far expect that the GameSir app keeps crashing and I can't map the back buttons. Tldr; if you're looking for a mobile controller for your phone and specifically to play FPS like PUBG, WARZONE AND FARLIGHT etc... get the GamSir G8
