Gamesir G8 Galileo - This is best telescopic controller right now

[@godminnette2]

"Measure what can be measured, and make measurable what extends beyond" is fairly valid English, even if it sounds weird. It's a play on Galileo's aphorism: "Measure what can be measured, and make measurable what cannot be." The descriptor for the "what" (a category of things) one should make measurable is in this case, "things that extend beyond" as opposed to "things that cannot be measured." The only weird bit grammatically is: extends beyond what? Though in modern English, "beyond" also refers to a great unknown, (though typically life after death, it can be used generally for any great unknown to be explored, including in realms of knowledge and terrestrial exploration).

gamesir is on the right path to creating the definitive telescopic gamepad, and thanks to the g8, I believe that other companies will have to do their best to catch up to gamesir in this regard. I hope flydigi pays attention to telescopic types, it would be incredible

9:14 What Hair Trigger does is that it registers any depress at any % of trigger pressure as complete depress. So if you press the trigger all the the way down, even if you release it just a tiny bit, it will "unpress" the input and let you press the trigger again without having to release it all the way back. Hair trigger is a very neat feature for any mapping software that works with analog triggers. Btw, that's a interesting telescopic ganepad. I have been looking into one of these and this one looks like something to consider

[@osidufg]

oh, so it's the same terminology as wooting's rapid trigger

[@illuminati229]

Thanks for the tear down! I've been using the game Sir G8 for a little bit now and definitely agree that is the best telescoping mobile controller out there.

[@jorge69696]

As someone considering buying an android tablet for streaming my gaming pc, this is exactly what I was looking for.

[@mariusznowak725]

Yes, It's totally right, this is the best mobile telescopic gamepad on the market now! But beware mine has an issue now , after 2 months of usage USB -C port is a bit loose (broken), still working, but not with the phone case on.Im waiting now for replacement from the Gamesir store.

[@Scherba.Stickers]

It is interesting to see how you disassemble the galileo g8+ and compare it with this controller. Where are the bluetooth power supplies and where are the vibration motors soldered

[@kamm3021]

Good review 👍🏻 Many pros with almost no cons Fast charging is not supported for all phones unfortunately And it's not as fast as plugging directly to the charger but not bad Ask them to send the new X2 S it has hall effect joysticks and triggers and it's half the price of this one

[@bernardking91]

Your review video is very comprehensive, covers almost everything i needed to know. Now, just one last thing, how is the latency? Does the controller connects to the phone via USB-C port or via bluetooth? I have tried many controllers pairing with phones using bluetooth, the latency is not very satisfying when playing action games to be honest. flydigi apex 4 is very very responsive when im playing on PC connecting through dongle / wired connection. but not so much when i need to pair it with android via bluetooth, which is a slight disappointment because its not as snappy as it is when im playing on PC.

[@doniherald7745]

from the sound, i think it's used more solid dpad switch but in result harder to press diagonal

[@Panzergruppe22]

you might add one con at the end of the video the passthrough charge is not supported on every phone: some phone can fast charge, some slow/normal charge, and some don't charge at all

[@alexfizz7402]

If you want a different colorway, check the Redmagic Shadow Blade 2. It's basically a G8, but rebranded.

[@JPYouTube2023]

Does G8 have the auto shutoff feature now? The previous Gamesir USBC controller drain 10~15% phone battery over night if not unplugged.

[@VKsChannel]

No you have to manually turn it off

[@ImUrZaddy]

@@VKsChannelDoes it not go into sleep mode after around 10 minutes of no activity?

[@TheEmoPainter]

Do you think this would work with a case with a popsocket stuck on it?

[@illuminati229]

No

[@ImUrZaddy]

Is there a drop of sound quality when you use the G8’s own 3.5mm audio port compared to using the phone’s?

[@SkinnyJeansLive]

someone says its not compatible with latest iPhone ios? and yes, many games dont work well? do i need a mapping app first and map every game? feels so nice, this device, but so many games dont really work on my iphone 15

[@franssembiring957]

Quick queston. What controller is your recomendation for $20 - $40 ? My budget really tight..😅😅

[@VKsChannel]

a telescopic controller? or a normal gamepad?

[@franssembiring957]

@@VKsChannel a normal gamepad.

[@sumeetsharma8482]

Seems like gamesir would launch a pro version sometime in future and put rumble motors in those slots.

[@bomberkirby624]

I have a question. If you remove the faceplate, are the diagonals easier to press?

[@VKsChannel]

no

[@darkavera]

Muito bom , comprei no lançamento ... O único ruim é não ter uma abertura maior para tablet ...

[@sergiobrbr]

Existem certos mods feitos pela comunidade para fazer o controle suportar até tablets grandes, é uma especie de peça feita na impressora que aumenta a largura suportada pelo gamepad

[@darkavera]

@@sergiobrbr sim eu vi, mas confesso que não fiquei a fim de fazer uma adaptação.. me conformei e comprei o PG-9777 pro tablet

[@VKsChannel]

sem contar que é muito facil danificar a carcaça do controle ao abrir ele, que nem aconteceu na desmontagem@@darkavera

[@darkavera]

@@VKsChannel exato , peguei esse mesmo que citei da IPEGA. Tem controles mecânicos ao menos.. se bem que depois dos da gulitikit....vai saber

[@rasantefalso]

Foi um desperdício fazerem um controle robusto desses e não ter maior abertura para tablet. Já tem a linha X, com o novo X2s hall effect, que é compacta com menor abertura só para smartphone. Vai ficar para o próximo.

[@danielc5647]

except it doesn't have xinput mode

[@seibaaa_]

just curious, did the type c support audio output ? I only got a type c earphone.

[@VKsChannel]

no, just charging

[@TheReploid9]

when will you review flydigi apex 4?

[@luisoliveira7107]

Opa blz? vi seu video do vader 3 pro, tem algum jeito de calibrar o giroscopio?

[@VKsChannel]

Tem

[@VKsChannel]

Acho que vc tem q atualizar e depois apertar uma combinação de botões pra calibrar Procura o canal boombakalous ele deve ter algum video falando disso

[@Craigrobbo2k7]

does the USB pass though work with data and AV?

[@VKsChannel]

No, just charging

[@MrNiko.]

Does the gamesir also work on The GamesirVX aimbox because I don't see it in the options please anyone here can help me

[@Psychotoxic86]

Waiting for Gamesir REAL ellite controller. Which can be competitive to Flydigi Apex 4. Especially after gulikit failure.

[@Hree]

No Xinput for this controller even on Android?

[@VKsChannel]

No Only dinput but it works with xbox cloud just fine

[@ViXoZuDo]

I need a comparison against the BSP D9

[@VKsChannel]

Bought one, gonna review it soon

[@jeanddoest5327]

Please we need the new umboxing ghe flidijy apex 4

[@VKsChannel]

its on the way

[@conyo985]

There's the Easy SMX M10 if someone has a tighter budget.

[@ViXoZuDo]

BSP controllers are cheaper

[@rasantefalso]

Gamesir X2s hall effect out now. Got one for U$35 on Aliexpress.

[@JamieR]

Just picked one up and nothing happens when it connects woth the phone 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

[@VKsChannel]

Remove the case

[@rasantefalso]

Maybe the phone is not compatible. What processor does it has?

[@EJPlayz79]

Razer kishi ultra watching and says hold my beer 🍺 lol 😁

[@wowoweelly]

nice thumbnail lol

[@IdiawesKara]

tivesse um d-pad decente seria o melhor gamepad mobile period, mas ele brilha muito no preço

[@rasantefalso]

Já me conformei que a Gamesir não sabe fazer D-pad. Dizem que o do G7SE é decente, mas de membrana tbm.

[@IdiawesKara]

@@rasantefalso membrana eh melhor que botão, botão quebra rápido e da click duplo só que a membrana tem que ser das boas

[@rasantefalso]

@@IdiawesKara botão de micro switch não quebra assim não viu. Só se for cavalo. É o mesmo de mouse. Só é mais barulhento.

[@IdiawesKara]

@@rasantefalso não eh o mesmo de mouse, eh pior, os bons seriam caros e deixariam o controle bem caro

[@IdiawesKara]

um switch pra superar membrana tem q ser pelo menos cherry, que dirá o de controle que uma parada baratinha

[@RED_VAR]

You cannot do haduken with this controller ... so it's not the best.
