GameSir G8 Plus MFi review: a premium wired mobile controller that finally feels console-grade

The GameSir G8 Plus MFi is a wired mobile controller designed for people who want console-style controls on their phone or small tablet, without the latency or pairing headaches of Bluetooth. Officially MFi-certified, it plugs straight into iPhone, iPad, or Android devices via USB-C. It delivers the precision, comfort, and reliability of a console-style controller. It feels like turning your phone into something closer to a Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch.
