MCON Controller is Complete Garbage
That's hilarious. The G8 Galileo feels like a proper console controller. It's even more ergonomic than any dedicated Android handheld I've ever owned. The marketing around this controller is so ridiculous.

Phone + Kishi v2 + GeForce NOW is lowkey the best portable setup
I did the same and I can't believe how much better Gamesir G8 Galileo is for a half price.

Backbone Gen2 drifting
Time and time again people have been warned against purchasing backbones. I recommend the gamesir brand. The x5 lite or the g8 Galileo (mind you with the Galileo) you should get an anker charger because a regular apple charger can’t sense the voltage it needs to pass through charge. Only caveat. HOW

Gamesir x5 lite triggers
What do you think about the g8 galileo? Looked up some reviews and it looks solid, I found it for 50$ & I think ima get it.

GameSir 8 Galileo still worth it now?
Asking if anyone has this controller is moot, you are on the Gamesir subreddit, there will be many people that own this. It's good, it's sturdy, quiet; but the D-pad is loud and clicky so I avoid using it on planes or in bed with someone. I use the X5 Lite instead for travel. The G8 Galileo will not

Tienen Recomendaciones para Mando/ Control comodo para celular?
Tengo el gamesir g8 galileo, muy recomendado en general la mayoría de productos gamesir. Este mando en particular tiene gatillos análogos, tiene un buen agarre para las manos, palancas suaves y con buena sensibilidad y recorrido. Lo compré hace un par de años y nunca dio problemas

Building a budget Steam Deck-like setup for the first time - will it work well?
I'm playing dark souls 2, and I get a 5 seconds stutter every two or three hours, it's really rare tbh, but it does annoy me. This stutter is caused by some network interference, because is the "low your bandwheigh" warning But it's a blast, I'm enjoying really well, and it never happened at a boss

Combat difficulties on mobile - do I keep at it?
This was the game that convinced me to get a controller (Gamesir G8 Galileo is awesome!). Really opened up the Playpass library for me. Me+action game+virtual controls=frustration.

Love it, latency basicly non existent
Found no fault with their CS or their products so far. G8 Galileo still serving me well.
