Manufacturer description

The GameSir G7 SE is a wired Xbox controller built around Hall effect joysticks and Hall effect triggers, the same magnetic sensor design that sidesteps the potentiometer wear behind stick drift on standard gamepads. It works with Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One X|S, and Windows 10/11 PCs including Steam, over a detachable USB cable with no drivers to install. Plug it in and you are playing. Two remappable back buttons sit under the grips, so you can move jumps or reloads off the face buttons without lifting your thumbs, and GameSir includes them specifically to cut down on false triggers…

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the GameSir G7 SE work on Xbox Series X and Series S?

Yes. It supports Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One X/S consoles, plus Windows 10 and above on PC, including games launched through Steam.

Will the Hall effect joysticks prevent stick drift?

Hall effect joysticks use magnetic sensing instead of the wearing contact potentiometers found in standard sticks, which GameSir cites for long life and improved accuracy. Both the joysticks and the triggers are Hall effect on this model.

Is the G7 SE wireless?

No. It is a wired controller using a detachable USB cable. It is plug and play with no additional drivers required, so setup is immediate on console or PC.

Can I plug a headset into the controller?

Yes. There is a 3.5mm audio interface on the controller for connecting a gaming headset directly, so chat and game audio run through the same cable you are already holding.

How many programmable buttons does it have?

Two custom back keys, which GameSir positions as a way to eliminate false triggers by moving frequently used inputs onto the rear of the grips.
