    Controller grips are an awesome way of turning your phone into a full gaming handheld, getting the most out of Xbox Cloud Gaming, Xbox Remote Play, PS5 remote play, as well as mobile games like Genshin Impact. Gamesir's G8 Galileo is a new option offering a more traditional full size grip that can work across both Android and the new iPhone 15. Here's my thoughts on it!

    I just wish the type c port was on the left side like the Gamesir X2. I have a Z Fold5 and if the port is on the right my screen hangs down below the controller. When on the left, my screen is higher up. From my experience it's better for ergonomics. It's a small change that won't hurt non Fold users.

    I'm current using this one, replacing my Backbone One as my daily driver. Although it is a bit heavy,it is a lot more comfortable and lets me use it for remote gaming on PC and PS4 more often nicely. Love it so far

      So I had the razor Kishi version two, which is a fantastic phone controller later I bought the razor phone case for the iPhone 13 for some reason the razor phone case is not compatible with the razor key controller and I have to take it off every time I use itand that is so damn annoying

      @@phillipalleva-cox3903 that’s insanely dumb the razor phone case doesn’t work with the razor controller, I would imagine that would be a main reason they would make one. But I have a backbone and when I had my iPhone SE I had a slimmer case and it worked fine, but now my phone is 2 inches bigger and now won’t fit with the case.

    • @That1randomguy92

    • @haysoos123
      @haysoos123 7 месяцев назад

      You will have to cut off the rubber bumper on the USB-C side to fit even not that thick cases. It doesn't have detachable fittings like the Backbone v2. However, after doing this mod, it fit my case just fine and I think it's very good. The only other drawback is the clicky d-pad.

    Really surprised that they were able to use hall effect sticks AND triggers. I’ve heard that a lot of companies haven’t been able to do this because the sticks and triggers are close enough together that they’re magnetic fields interfere with each other. Will be interested to see how this holds up over time.

      It is for me. Plus it’s the most comfortable handheld I’ve ever had with the dual sense features. The inly question is if your connection is good and you can justify for the price.
      For me, it’s been much better than backbone and phone, iPad and controller, and steam deck(original version) and chiaki. Yep, I’ve tried them all, and I’ve finally found a handheld that’s pick up and play to comfortably play my ps5 games for a long time.

    Got mine a week ago and it's been a game changer! the only con is that it's a bit large which makes it difficult to carry around but that is not a deal breaker at all. I believe this is around $5-10 more expensive than a backbone and just blows it completely out of the water with all the features, ergonomics and even build quality. I have never been a fan of playing on a mobile device until now. my phone just became my Defacto go to for emulation.
