GameSir, one of the most recognisable names in gaming peripherals, has officially unveiled the GameSir G8+ MFi Type-C Wired Game Controller — a new wired controller designed to bring true console-level control to iPhone, iPad and Android players. With full MFi certification, this model ensures stable connectivity and seamless operation across Apple devices. The G8+ MFi is available now for $79.99/£79.99 through the GameSir website and Amazon US, with Amazon UK coming soon.
Refined Minimalist Design for Modern Gaming
The G8+ MFi arrives with a fresh grey-and-white minimalist design, giving the controller a premium aesthetic without sacrificing practicality. Its 125–215mm stretch range supports everything from larger smartphones to the iPad mini, ensuring a secure fit and comfortable handling no matter the setup.
Console-style ergonomics, laser-textured grips and a balanced weight deliver long-session comfort, making the controller feel instantly familiar for console players transitioning to mobile gaming.
Precision Engineering with Hall Effect Technology
At the core of the G8+ MFi’s design is precision. The controller uses GameSir Hall Effect sticks, which rely on non-contact magnetic sensors to eliminate stick drift and extend lifespan to five million cycles.
The Hall Effect analog triggers follow the same high-end approach, delivering smooth responsiveness ideal for racers, shooters and action games. Players wanting quicker reactions can activate the dedicated hair trigger mode (M+LT/RT) for faster inputs during intense gameplay.
Wired Speed, Zero Lag, and Player-Focused Features
A movable Type-C plug-and-play connector ensures a rock-solid wired connection with ultra-low latency — a crucial advantage for competitive mobile titles. Pass-through charging keeps your device powered, and the included silicone pads protect your device while maintaining a snug fit.
The G8+ MFi also features a magnetic detachable faceplate, enabling interchangeable ABXY layouts and swappable thumbsticks. This gives players the freedom to tailor their preferred control style. Two remappable back buttons allow quick access to in-game actions without lifting thumbs off the sticks.
Immersive Haptics and Durable Build Quality
For enhanced immersion, the controller includes dual asymmetric rumble motors, delivering strong and subtle vibration effects depending on in-game events.
The membrane ABXY buttons are built for longevity with a 2-million-click lifespan, while the mechanical D-pad ensures crisp directional control — perfect for platformers and fighting games.
Deep Customisation Through the GameSir App
Gamers wanting deeper control can use the GameSir App to tweak dead zones for sticks and triggers, adjust vibration intensity, run button tests and install firmware updates.
Many of these features can also be accessed through intuitive on-device button combinations, allowing quick mid-game adjustments without pausing the action.
