Up until now I was using an XBOX One controller with a clip for attaching your phone, which worked well but was quite unergonomic. I had to keep my wrists in an awkward angle, which made my fingers go numb after a short amount of time.

Now I got me the Gamesir X2 Pro and I couldn’t be happier. The Switch form factor is SO MUCH MORE ergonomic and with the USB C connection there’s no latency at all. It’s finally fun to play emulators on the phone (or to stream from my gaming PC).

The buttons are rather clicky, so the acustics can get a little annoying, but haptically they feel great. The build quaility is pretty satisfying all around.

Totally recommended if you’re into phone gaming.

    It’s great! I’m a fan too. My only complaint is the triggers are not analog, but I’ve only had an issue with it on dreamcast games, so I’ll play other stuff for now 😀

      They are analog in the X2 Pro, even with hall effect! You’re probably referring to the X2 (non Pro).

    I have the X2 USB-C version and I’m struggling to get the Gamesir app to map on screen controls for my games.

      I haven’t even tried the app, I only play emulators, stream from my gaming PC or play games with true controller support…
