The popular GameSir G8 Plus Controller is down to its lowest price ever, making this a great time to upgrade your gamepad. Compatible with Switch, iOS, and Android, it packs in a lot of great features for just $64 (was $80). The limited-time deal is part of Amazon’s Big Spring Sale, which means it’ll likely disappear when the event ends on March 31.
$64 (was $80)
The GameSir G8 Plus fits most phones and tablets up to 8.46 inches. It also works with Nintendo Switch, and based on its dimensions and Bluetooth support, it’s possible it will also support the upcoming Switch 2. And if you want, you can even use it as a PC controller via USB. That makes it a pretty well-rounded gamepad, especially when you consider its new low price.
Aside from its universal compatibility, it’s equipped with Hall Effect sticks to resist the dreaded analog drift, a six-axis gyroscope for motion controls, and dual motor vibration. It also offers two trigger modes, one of which allows for faster actuation. Its buttons are also interchangeable, allowing you to swap around its face buttons or stick caps based on your preferences.
This isn’t the only great controller on sale during Amazon’s Big Spring Sale. The GameSir G8 Galileo is even more affordable at $62 (was $80), and it’s a solid alternative for mobile-focused gamers. For something more traditional, the GameSir Cyclone 2 Wireless Controller is $47.59 (was $56). It works with PC, Switch, iOS, and Android, and gets you a standard controller format along with Hall Effect sticks, a charging stand, and responsive microswitch face buttons.
The new 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless Controller is also discounted at Amazon. The pro-style gamepad only just released earlier this year but is already discounted to just $48 (was $60). All three colors (black, white, purple) are eligible for the price cut. Our review found it to be an improvement over its predecessor–which was already listed as our favorite PC controller.
