GameSir G7 SE close review shot

The GameSir G7 SE is meant to be a budget controller that you can get for cheap, but I don’t think it’s supposed to be better than the official gamepad that comes in your Xbox’s box. GameSir clearly didn’t understand that assignment though, because although it has a cutesie look and an unassuming face, it’s a fully-fledged pro controller for Xbox and PC that I’d easily recommend over Microsoft’s version.

It’s also blissfully cheap thanks to Cyber Monday sales at the moment. Reduced from its $45 regular price, it’sdown to $35.99 at Amazon. That saving applies to all of its colorways, including the white, eggshell model I tested for review, as well as the Blue, Orange, and Purple versions that have been released since.

Rather annoyingly, thisCyber Monday Xbox dealis a Prime exclusive, but luckily there’s an offer on the retail page to take out a 30-day free trial if you aren’t already a member. I’ve spotted the G7 SE drop down to this price a few times now, and it’s always one I’d recommend to people looking for a spare controller to throw into their rotation because there’s amazing value to be had from it.

Should you buy the GameSir G7 SE?

GameSir G7 SE’s back side, showing the controller’s two back buttons

Whether you’re a PC gamer looking for a controller to occasionally use in games that require one, or you’re an Xbox player needing something up a level from the stock Wireless controller, theGameSir G7 SEis a great option. It’s one of the more affordable Xbox pro controllers out there today, but it’s still one of the first I’ll look for when it comes to the likes of Black Friday and Prime Day because its features give even the expensive ones a run for their money.

Two back buttons can make a huge difference after you spend a bit of time getting used to them. They mean you don’t have to rely on quick thumb movements for all of your in-game functions, and in first-person games you don’t need to take your thumbs off the sticks as much, resulting in better aim and movement. The back buttons here are placed beautifully so you don’t need to adjust your natural grip to press them - they fall right under your middle fingers.

GameSir G7 SE’s facial components and branding up close

Of course, the one drawback to this controller is that it came out before Xbox relaxed its licensing parameters, and as a result, it can only work with your PC or Xbox with a wired connection. There is a 3m cable in the box here, but if that’s going to be a dealbreaker, maybe check out one of the otherbest Xbox Series X controllers.
