Perfect controller for Zfold6
I got this to use with my Zfold6 as I wanted a bluetooth controller due to where the usbport sits on the phone making it awkward to use with a plugged in controller. Had no issues with connecting to my phone and it now automatically connects when I open it to place my phone inside and disconnects when I remove my phone.Build quality is really good, controller feels sturdy and nice to use and my phone sits in it securely even with the case on. I've been using it with Xbox Gamepass streaming and with PS5 remote play and it has worked completely fine with both without needing any kind of additional setup.You will need to download the GameSir app to see the battery level but the battery is pretty good and doesn't need charging often. The app also allows you to map the buttons to profiles and set the back buttons so it's worth having.

Excellent in most cases - Possible pass for Moonlight
I bought this looking to add vibration to Moonlight for iPhone as I typically stream my games to my phone. Coming from a Kishi Ultra, the ergonomics felt slightly inferior, if they were slightly deeper I think you’d have a better grip. I prefer mechanical buttons but for a portable control the ABXY felt great and are quiet so pros if you game around others. The app is great, the vibration feels great and it worked well in all use cases, but something felt off. When connected to Moonlight the sticks are very low resolution like 50hz polling rate compared to normal performance. A huge difference compared to the Kishi Ultra which connect via USB and registers 250hz, very noticeable. So despite the fantastic haptics, it’s a return for me. Though for iOS gaming, switch gaming, as a controller and for value, it’s clearly excellent.

Best controller for mobile gaming
This controller is perfect for mobile gaming, the buttons, triggers and joysticks feel really good and satisfying to use and theres no noticeable latency. The battery life is good it lasts a quite a while before you need to charge it again (around 8 hours which for me is fine since i don’t usually have such long gaming sessions anyways) and it doesn’t take too long to fully charge either (around 2 hours). Its comfortable to hold in the hand after you get used to it, i mainly used a ps5 controller before this which feels really skinny in comparison but this still feels comfortable. The controller also has unsymmetrical joysticks which i thought would be annoying since I’ve never used a controller like that before but after using it for a bit you get used to it and it’s fine. The only issue with this controller is the weight, its fine when you’re sitting down and using it or if you have a table to support your arms but when you’re laying down on your back it can feel a little heavy especially depending on the phone you’re using it with. The controller itself does have batteries since it connects with bluetooth which makes the controller heavier than the base GameSir G8. It’s easy to switch the buttons and joysticks, the controller comes with 3 extra joysticks you can use to tailor the controller to your liking which is nice. For the price you get a very well rounded product and I would definitely recommend.

Really good!
This controller works great with my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. The overall construction is very solid and premium-feeling, especially with the magnetic faceplates and swappable joysticks. All buttons feel tactile and responsive, and the hall-effect joysticks are incredibly nice. The joysticks feel nicer and are more accurate than my other controllers, e.g., my PS5 controller.The controller has additional features, such as per-button turbo and digital rapid trigger. By "digital," I mean it doesn't physically change the trigger's stop position, but registers the trigger as fully pressed when only slightly pressed down. It has other features as well, and all features can be configured without the app via the M key. The vibration motors are also quite nice and feel very punchy/tactile without being loud.The app is also pretty good, but that is why I wouldn't rate it a 5-star product. The app needs some refinement. The mapping feature works quite well, but that is where I had the biggest issues. Notably, with the right stick mapping system that emulates screen swipes via the right stick to move the camera/crosshair in FPS games. I could not get this feature to work well enough to feel like I am using a normal gamepad; it felt weird and had a certain stutteriness to it. This seemed worse with higher refresh rate games (90-120 fps). But, of course, this is only an issue encountered when specifically using the remap mode to play touchscreen-only games with the controller. If the game supports a controller natively (most do nowadays on mobile), then expect a wonderful, native-feeling experience with no issues at all. This is also something that could be fixed in the future, as it is definitely an issue with the app/software mapping system, not the controller itself.Overall, I'd definitely recommend this controller. All the games I play support it natively, so I don't need the app at all. This controller also works for other devices like PC, Nintendo Switch, and any iOS platform, so it's versatile too! It could be the only controller you ever need again.

Useless
Why did you choose this product over others?:I chose it because of the YouTube videos which said it’s the best thing since sliced bread. I followed the instructions to a T. Connected via dual shock 4 so I could play with my iPhone 16 pro. The buttons didn’t work. Completely unresponsive. Absolutely useless. I returned it and will try the wired one. I hate Bluetooth.
