Wired Console Controllers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The GameSir G7 is an Affordable Xbox Controller with Rear Buttons

— December 14, 2022 — Tech
The 'GameSir G7' is a new wired Xbox controller from GameSir, an aftermarket gaming peripherals company. The G7 is a wired controller that resembles the official white Microsoft Xbox controller but with a few notable changes.

Firstly, the G7 features two programmable rear buttons referred to as M1 and M2. Secondly, the GameSir G7 utilizes customizable profiles and adjustable triggers via the 'M' button. When the M button is pressed with the LT or RT buttons, the controller will enter 'Hair Trigger Mode,' which actuates the trigger buttons very early in the press sequence, which is perfect for shooting games that benefit from digital triggers and quick reaction times.

The GameSir G7 is available now at an MSRP of just $44.99, making it a more feature-packed controller than the original Xbox controller at a significantly lower price.
