GameSir Cyclone 2 Wireless Controller - 1000Hz Polling Rate, TMR Joysticks, Hall/Micro 2-in-1 Triggers for PC/Switch/Android/iOS, PC Gaming Controller with Charging Dock(Black)

In short; For the price I just can’t see how you could get a better controller. Especially when this controller is reduced it’s half the price of the G7 Pro and yet is 90% of the controller. It’s a super responsive and well-spec’d controller with hardly any negatives at the price point. I bought the white model just for a change and it looks great with the gold accents and grey thumb sticks. The ‘rough’ dimpled texture on the controller for grip is excellent, the buttons are really nice with a shallow click and the 3.5mm jack is really nice. My only negative is I wish it had lockable back buttons but I also acknowledge that if they gave this controller all the features of the G7 Pro no one would ever buy one! You can tell they’ve held back a little bit in the overall ‘quality’ when I compare it to my Tarantula Pro which feels a more premium product… But again, at a lower price point that is completely acceptable and I just can’t fault the Cyclone 2 for the price paid. If you’re unsure whether to buy one, just do it. There is no way you could possibly regret the purchase unless you have wildly unrealistic expectations. I’ll be sure to update this review if things change!

The GameSir Cyclone 2 is an excellent multi-platform controller with a solid build quality and a wealth of customization options. It offers configurable profiles for both button mappings and LED colours, though it's worth noting that these settings are independent—you can't link an LED colour profile to a specific button profile. However, customization is straightforward using either the built-in controls or the GameSir software, which is available on the Microsoft Store and makes configuration a breeze. On my PC, the controller works flawlessly via the 2.4GHz dongle, providing a stable and responsive connection. I also use it via Bluetooth on my Android tablet, where it functions as a PS4 controller and is recognized natively by COD Mobile. Switching between devices is easy using simple button combinations (Mem + B for PS4 Bluetooth, Mem + X for Xbox via the dongle), making it incredibly versatile. While I’ve occasionally had to re-pair the tablet when switching back to Bluetooth, it generally connects without issue. One of the standout features is button remapping, allowing you to program the rear buttons and create multiple profiles tailored to different games. The included desktop stand is also a great touch—besides providing a convenient place to store the controller, it houses the dongle, making for a clean, single USB-C connection for both charging and wireless PC gaming. While the Cyclone 2 is packed with features, I found it slightly less comfortable compared to other controllers I’ve used (PS4, PS5 Edge, 8BitDo Ultimate 2C). The L2 (LT) and R2 (RT) trigger corners feel a bit sharp, which can cause discomfort during extended play sessions if your fingers aren’t positioned just right. That said, after some adjustment, I got used to it. Despite minor ergonomic concerns, the GameSir Cyclone 2 is a fantastic value-for-money controller. Its multi-platform compatibility, robust customisation options, and useful accessories make it an ideal choice for gamers who switch between devices but want to maintain a consistent button mapping experience. Highly recommended!

This controller is seriously impressive for the price. The build quality feels premium right out of the box, and the included charging dock is such a nice touch - just pick it up and play, no messing around with cables. Performance-wise, it’s super responsive. The 1000Hz polling rate actually makes gameplay feel smoother, especially in fast-paced games. The sticks feel really precise, and the Hall Effect triggers are a big plus - no dead zones or weird input issues. I also really like the microswitch buttons, they feel clicky and satisfying without being too loud. Everything just feels quick and accurate. The fact that it works across PC, Switch, iOS, and Android is a huge bonus. Switching between devices is easy, and the different connectivity options (Bluetooth, wireless dongle, wired) make it really flexible. RGB lighting is a fun extra too - not necessary, but it looks great and adds a bit of personality. Honestly, it’s hard to find anything to complain about. If you want a reliable, responsive controller that works on pretty much everything, this is a great pick.

The packaging was unique and sturdy. It almost had a premium apple like feel to the box that came in. I would say I’m a tech savvy person who is kind of obsessed with tech of any sort and for some reason blow my money on it but this right here is one of the most premium controllers I felt it’s actually very good value so far I kind of bought it suddenly after my dual shock 4 controller Broke which I’ve had since 2016 but this is an insane upgrade. It connects very nicely to the PC no longer needing DS4 windows and it also smoothly switches to the switch as well. Great value would recommend only downside I can really think of so far is that the charging cable came with is rather short but everyone has a USB cable nowadays so you can just use your own.

Excellent controller, which compares favourably with the Xbox Elite 2 controller that I'm used to. While the Elite is heavier (which I like), all other features are better on this controller. Really smooth, precise sticks (no drift - looking at you Microsoft), satisfying buttons, better charging, easy setup, RGB (which I don't use, but it's a feature) all make it rank higher than the best of the first-party controllers. Oh, and did I mention that you can get two of these for the price of an Elite 2? Microsoft need to up their game to compete with this. I'm only giving it four stars as the first one I received was faulty (swiftly replaced by Amazon).

edit: While the below was true, I was having some slight issues with the sticks spinning in usage, not really an issue as the movement to do that was rare enough that I rarely notice it; But, I came to the controller today to notice that one of the sticks had fallen off, when I was trying to record the issue to show it, the other stick spun off and ended up with a small bit of the stem falling off. Was looking for a wireless controller so that I could play games across my deck and PC with the same general controls, a dock felt like a bit of an essential, somewhere for it to call home, hall effect sticks make me feel a bit more confident when the time comes to toss it in my bag on a trip. It generally just looked like a solid option. I've had this thing for a few weeks now, the one thing I wish it came with that it didn't would be a quick hot-button guide, so I don't have to unfold a giant manual or keep a PDF on my phone. I did accidentally start the device up in PlayStation mode, which was confusing. Outside of that, the device feels solid, the buttons have a robust and tactile click when using them, trigger stops are only something I've quickly toyed with, but they seem to work well and give a nice solid clicky feedback. Rebinding keys isn't something I've used much yet, but I did coincidentally toy with it last night. It seems handy to reassign the back buttons to functions which would require you to let go of the camera stick in 3d games. No real issues with it, connectivity has been solid, it's done what I've expected it to. The only real "could be betters" I have would be a quick reference manual I can print out or keep around with the controller; The dock is handy but it is somewhat easy for it not to seat correctly, a quick push on the controller will generally push the pins out of the way and let it seat; After a solid day of gaming, the battery is typically 50-60% remaining, so I can afford not to charge it one night, especially a work night, maybe where I have my dock makes me more likely to misangle it, but it is something to be aware of.

Worked straight out of the box, no fiddly calibrations, recognised by games even when multiple controllers available, easy layout for small hands, and very smooth control of sticks and buttons. Simply a lovely controller - I would recommend it to anyone. Lighting options with the app - I was happy with the defaults.

Probably the best controller I've ever had? I went through loads trying to find the right balance of modern magnetic sticks/triggers (so no drift) but with the correct resistances for my needs. The sticks on this feel outstanding (precise yet not loose) , the various buttons have a lovely tactile feel and the triggers have equal resistance throughout the pull making them great for racing games. The triggers can also be switched to microswitch mode, which is useful. The lithium battery charge has literally never run out, and the stand pad sits on to recharge looks good too. I honestly wouldn't know it wasn't wired, it feels so crisp. 10/10

Don't hesitate. Seriously. This controller is literally one of the best feeling controllers I've had in my hands in ages-- I've gone through quite a lot of controllers and unfortunately I've had to discard many of them due to them gaining stick drift after some time. Not only has this controller not drifted on me, the build quality is fantastic and the customization for the RGB lights is very nice. The lights feel bright enough to be aesthetically pleasing but the semi-transparent casing gives it more of a soft, vibrant glow which is very cool. This is my first true wireless controller and I've been avoiding wireless controllers for quite some time due to concerns with latency issues, especially in more action based games. The inputs are ridiculously responsive that it almost feels like I'm just using a wired controller. The buttons are very comfortable and aren't too loud or clacky sounding which I appreciate alot. My only concern with this controller is that if anything happens to the USB dongle, unfortunately it would render the entire controller useless, as it seems Gamesir makes every USB dongle SPECIFICALLY for the controller it comes with in box, so replacement dongles are a no-go. Other than that, I'm extremely happy with this controller and it was very comfortable to play Final Fantasy 7 Remake with on pc.

Very good

I ordered this after watching a psychotic number of controller reviews and comparisons on YouTube. My final choice came down to this or the EasySMX X20, which seems to also be popular currently and may be good too. I have been extremely satisfied so far. This thing is the same price as a stock Xbox controller, and feels WAY better to me. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about mechanical buttons, but they're really good. Satisfying and clicky but still quiet and easy to press. Triggers and analog sticks are of course great being hall effect / TMR. The dock works well. I found the RGB a bit obnoxious, but you can turn it off easily using the software. The software is nice, pretty lightweight and just does what it should. Isn't a bloated mess that wants to run in the background all the time like some mouse/keyboard software - you just set your settings and then they're saved to the controller's memory and the app can be closed/uninstalled. The back paddles work well and are very easy to remap on the fly. I usually set them to jump/dodge or jump/crouch or something like that. My only complaint is the short USB cable, it's sort of useless unless you keep your PC on your desk AND want the controller on the same side of the desk as the controller. It wasn't even long enough to reach from the USB hub built into my monitor to the dock's resting place beneath my speaker on the other side of the monitor. But that's not a big deal. Would highly recommend over a stock Xbox controller for the same price.

Es el mando que utilizo con mi Nintendo Switch 2 y funciona de maravilla. Los botones son mecánicos y de efecto clicky, los gatillos tienen dos posiciones para utilizar todo el recorrido o cortos, también con click mecánico. Los sticks funcionan muy bien y tienen Hall Effect, por lo que no hay miedo a la aparición de drift. Los botones traseros se encuentran en una posición muy cómoda. la base de carga es muy bonita, aunque si se utiliza el dongle conectado a la base de carga, en vez de utilizar bluetooth, este se ilumina parpadeando eventualmente cuando la consola está apagada. Decir que he probado tanto por bluetooth como por dongle y en ambos casos la latencia es muy baja. Es muy personalizable por PC, para luces, vibración, perfiles, asignación de teclas, etc. En resumen: muy contento con mi mando

充電スタンドが結構かっこよくてデスクに置いていても見栄えが悪くならない。サイズ、形が共によく、握り心地もとてもいいし、操作感もとてもいい。接続はとても簡単で、中央のボタン押しながら端末に応じたボタンを同時に長押しするだけで繋がるので、とても簡単。（説明書に全部書いてる）ボタンの押し心地はクリックで、しっかりと押している感触があるので、個人的にとても好き。ZL、ZRはレバー切り替えで押し込みと浅めに反応するのが選べるのもとてもよく、自分に合った押し心地でプレイできるのがとても良かったです。パソコンのゲームからSwitch2まで接続できるので、本当にコントローラーから一個でいいんじゃないかと思います。
