The triggers are also great, with excellent trigger stops and mechanical buttons to let you customize your experience further.
It completely destroyed my muscle memory, and if you often have to pause in a game or press select (to reset in fighting games ... Read More
- double input on steam in several games i tested- i have experienced input delays via bluetooth, not via wireless dongle.
Price
To even include a dock at under $60 is amazing.
Price/value: if you buy this with the included dock for the price it’s the new winner for this category.
This is an absolute steal for only $55.
I probably don't deserve this controller for only $55.
Shipping
I bought this one on amazon because faster shipping.

Love the feel of the buttons and triggers, this controller is packed with amazing features.
Was able to update with the packaged cable.
I'm not sure if this can be fixed via software but it was strange that out of the box it was like that.
Competitiveness
The polling rate and latency "jitter" of this wireless controller is sooo much better than the series x controller + xbox wireless adapter.
This is my first gamesir, and though i have heard the first cyclone fell short in a lot of ways, this successor to it lives up ... Read More

Let me preface this by saying i have had this controller for less than a week and the real test will be time

Gamesir is one of the most commonlymentioned names when people talk about quality thirdparty controllers
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
And the way its done is with very subtle small levers nestled at the base of the triggers themselves which are a little tricky to switch but chances are if you use them youll set them once and never touch them again so in that case its nice theyre out of the way

Things that stood out to me are how seamless it is to turn on and off when the dongle is connected
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I dont know what magic they did to achieve that and it quite possibly is a pergame thing so it may not be the same for you

Just something i thought id mention
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It has a usb input slot you can use for the dongle so its not using up two ports and it automatically shuts off after a bit of time when its fullycharged or turned off
