GameSir X2s Review - Not Really That Great

[@VladNerd]

Also don't forget: Cool nerds help other nerds out by *SUBSCRIBING & LIKING.* ❤

Your comments around 6:00-7:30 is why i bought the wireless X2s - I intend to be rough with this thing and if it lasts more than 6 months then its a win. I agree the G8(+) is better for the couch than it is for travelling, and I love my g8+ so much, that I baby it when I really don't need to.

[@syneresis]

i ordered g8 at first but then i realized i spent most of my time at work. x2s is just a smaller footprint that i cancelled my g8 and ordered x2s instead. i’m a small lady, i don’t want to lug around a couch-type controller in the wild.

[@VladNerd]

I had those thoughts too. The X2S is just wayyy more pocketable than the G8. ❤️

[@snapdragon9300]

How did you get yours to work? Mine don't. Do they have to be gamsir app game list?

[@DJSLOWEDPURPGaming]

As a person who is on a budget and owns a fold phone, I think it's perfect for this market. I much prefer the look and feel of having my phone with the extra screen on the top versus it being on the bottom

The puppies!!! LMAO

[@VladNerd]

Found some good-looking puppies to make my point over there. 😄

Vlad I have a question for you or someone with this controller. I have the amazing RG35xx H - If lets say I buy this controller in the bluetooth variant, can I use it with my Anbernic device as a bluetooth controller? 35xx H has a TV out so paired with this would make a great travel gaming console combo to have. Wonder how the latency is on the bluetooh varian & now I wonder if there is a both a USB type C & blutoothe phone game controller out there.

Just ordered the X2s from Amazon for 48$ and awaiting its arrival this afternoon. I dont mind the color honestly. Ill just add some kind of anime wrap/stickers to it to customize it if i end up loving it. I got a Galaxy note 10+ so i think it'll be perfect for it. I use a lot of emulators and play PGR/Wuther waves now/ Honkai 3rd/ Snowbreak should play even better now with it and cod mobile as well. Ill definitely leave another reply once ive fully tested it to see if its really worth the it. Great video btw as well 👍

[@VladNerd]

Thanks a lot, my guy! For the price, the controller is really good. Looking forward to your thoughts on it. :)

[@STR82DVD]

LOL. Don't worry lad, mine is also on its way. I'm so weak, so human.

[@FrostclawTheGatomon]

I like the GameSir X2s's design, it looks nice. I'm gonna ask my mom to buy one of these soon.

[@VladNerd]

It definitely gets the job done!

[@FrostclawTheGatomon]

@@VladNerd Yep!

[@storm8216]

@@FrostclawTheGatomon You've got it? :D

[@citruesilver]

I have both the G8 and the X2s. The problem I have with the G8 is that the connector is on the wrong side for the Galaxy ZFold and the Lenovo y700 when using it for NDS emulation (amaaaaaaazing) Would love to have a G8 with connector on the left side...but I admit it's a very niche use case..e

[@snapdragon9300]

How the hell does it synch with games? Must be specific games on android from the gamsir site. Most of mine dont. It recognises the controls and operates through the android menu but wont do nothing with the games.

[@TeeeJaay1225]

Problems I encountered: - passthrough charging isn't that powerful even when using PD rated chargers, i haven't measured the output wattage but it is definitely not more than 25W because my Samsung's charge protection while gaming isn't kicking in - left analog stick gave in already, the resistance between left and right isn't balanced anymore

[@VladNerd]

so it's probably the perfect time to tell you that an all-black Bluetooth version of the G8 Galileo is coming on the 18th of this month. 😄

[@XaviHer441]

Hello, can you expand the memory with an SD card and put it in a type C adapter on the control? Regards

[@VladNerd]

that's quite a specific usecase. Sorry my guy, I never tried that. :)

[@storm8216]

(I won a X2S from Gamesir themselves) Not even gonna lie but.. It might have small buttons which slightly annoys me but can't be that bad since i owned a X2 which aged poorly. I rock a X2-Pro since they announced pre-order or whatever. and this color that the X2S has an instant win for me lol

[@VladNerd]

I mean... It's free. The price to performance ratio is off the charts in this case. 😄

[@X91X-km7hp]

Regarding phone controllers: I would love to see you review the BSP bluetooth controller series. Be a good slav, and spend your money for us.

[@VladNerd]

I'm Romanian. As latin as it gets. 😄 I have a review of the BSP D8 controller on the channel, feel free to check it out!

[@X91X-km7hp]

@@VladNerd Oh, mamaliga. Sorry for the mistake. Will check it out!

[@Brandon-eh3up]

The X2S is a nice controller considering the price point.

[@CAPMAX_Gaming]

Did you see the Bluetooth version? 😎

[@VladNerd]

I did, but it's out of stock everywhere. 😞

[@CAPMAX_Gaming]

@@VladNerd I'm keen to see if it can hold a tablet without having to over-extend it. The way that stresses out the springs worries me.

[@Nick-dk3zh]

There is a simple mod available on G8 & X2S that allow stretch it even more 😉

[@B-Swift]

I like the color. It’s like an SNES controller. That is why I like it.

[@L_ito]

i go to buy it thanks for the onest review bro

That breakfast looked pretty good vlad
