GameSir, a company well-known for its innovative gaming peripherals, has officially launched its latest offering, the G7 Pro. This new multi-platform controller is designed for pro-level performance across a range of devices, including Xbox, PC, and Android.
Building on the success of the G7 series, the G7 Pro comes packed with a host of upgrades. Gamers can expect enhanced latency, a higher polling rate, and the new Mag-Res TMR sticks, which are designed to prevent stick drift and provide incredibly smooth control.
Versatility and Performance
The G7 Pro is available in two classic colours, black and white, and features versatile tri-mode connectivity. It supports a wired connection for Xbox, both wired and 2.4G wireless for PC, and Bluetooth for Android devices. A physical mode switch makes it easy to transition between platforms, and a detachable cable retainer ensures a secure connection when playing wired.
The core of the G7 Pro’s precision is the new Mag-Res TMR stick technology. This tech combines the low power consumption of traditional sticks with the reliability of Hall Effect sensors. As the first Xbox-licensed controller to feature TMR sticks, it promises a faster response time and consistent in-game control, backed by a 1000 Hz polling rate on PC.
Key Features
- Hall Effect Analogue Triggers: These triggers provide smooth, linear control, perfect for a variety of games. They’re also paired with tactile Micro Switch trigger stops, which allow players to quickly activate a Hair Trigger Mode for rapid-fire inputs.
- Customisable Controls: The controller has four customisable macro buttons: two mini bumpers (R5/L5) and two lockable back buttons (R4/L4), offering flexible configuration for a personalised gaming experience.
- Built-in Gyroscope: For PC gamers, there’s a built-in gyroscope that enables motion-based control mapping for even more intuitive gameplay.
- Tactile and Durable: The G7 Pro uses optical Micro Switch ABXY buttons and a mechanical Micro Switch D-pad for crisp, e-sports-level feedback.
- Immersive Haptics: With four independent rumble motors—one in each grip and trigger—the controller delivers localised haptic feedback for a more realistic feel.
- Personalisation Options: The controller has a three-part magnetic swappable faceplate. It’s also compatible with older G7 series faceplates, giving gamers plenty of customisation options. Two additional D-pads are also included for ergonomic variety.
The G7 Pro package includes a charging station, a receiver, two D-pads, a cable retainer, and a 3-metre Type-C cable. For even deeper customisation, the new GameSir Nexus 2.0 software offers features like gyroscope configuration, stick curve adjustment, and button-to-mouse mapping. The controller supports Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, Steam, and Android
Thoughts
The G7 Pro looks like a fantastic new entry into the gaming peripherals market. The inclusion of Hall Effect triggers and the new TMR sticks is a big win for gamers concerned about stick drift and longevity. The multi-platform support, including wired Xbox and wireless PC and Android, makes it a highly versatile choice for players who game on more than one device. The customisable buttons, swappable faceplates, and included charging station show that GameSir is really focusing on giving users a premium, personalised experience without the typical high-end price tag.
