GameSir G8 Plus Wireless Controller for Mobile & Switch

All-in-one wireless controller for mobile, PC, Switch and more

- The GameSir G8 Plus is built for players who want console-style control across multiple devices. With Bluetooth wireless for phones and tablets, wired support for PC, and direct compatibility with Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck, it lets you use one familiar controller for most of your gaming setups.

The G8 Plus features an extendable bridge and generous rear clearance to fit a wide range of smartphones and tablets within 120-215 mm in length. Console-sized sticks and buttons deliver a familiar layout, while the ergonomic grips and carefully contoured shape support longer sessions with reduced hand fatigue. Dual built-in 500 mAh batteries power the controller for mobile and Bluetooth use, and USB-C connectivity allows a stable wired connection for PC gaming.

For precision, the controller uses GameSir Hall Effect sensing sticks and Hall Effect analog triggers, designed to provide smooth 360° control and consistent response. Anti-friction glide rings around the sticks help maintain smooth movement over time. A quick Hair Trigger Mode, activated via M+LT/RT, is available when you need rapid actuation in shooters or action titles. A built-in 6-axis gyroscope enables motion control on compatible Nintendo Switch titles, including single-press wake-up support.

Immersion is enhanced with asymmetric dual vibration motors in the grips and triggers, giving more detailed feedback for impacts, engine revs, and environmental effects. The face buttons use a membrane design with a rated 5 million-click lifespan, while the tactile D-pad and LB/RB buttons provide clear, responsive input. Two rear buttons support remapping and macro functions, and a Turbo function can be configured for repeated actions.

Customization extends to both looks and performance. Interchangeable magnetic faceplates, stick caps, and face button caps allow you to adjust appearance and stick height to your preference. Through the GameSir App, you can fine-tune stick and trigger dead zones, vibration strength, button mappings, and perform firmware updates or input tests. Many adjustments can also be made via on-the-fly key combinations without leaving your game.

In the box, you receive the GameSir G8 Plus Bluetooth Mobile Gaming Controller, three additional thumbsticks (small, high, and round), a 1 m USB-C cable, and a user manual. This combination provides a ready-to-use setup for mobile, tablet, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Steam Deck gaming, with the flexibility to adapt to different playstyles and game genres.
