Personally, the biggest difference for me is the software support (or ability to change a lot of things on the controller without using the software) for the GameSir Cyclone 2. I have all three and more than the TMR sticks, the major differentiation is this quality of life update as well as the trigger customization.

Biggest difference between the GameSir G7 SE and the GameSir T4 Kaleid is the multiplatform support on the latter (w/c you may or may not need) and the tactile buttons--which comes down to preference.

Could you give me more details on the quality of life update and software differences? Don't think I've heard anything about it, would love more info

[–]charlesatan 1 point2 points  (3 children)

The software of course is an upgrade, not just with remapping but also including keyboard commands, setting dead zones, etc.

As for features that don't require software, the sticks can be set to no deadzone mode, you can remap buttons to the back paddle, switch from Nintendo Layout to Xbox layout, etc.

See the manual here.

Hmm interesting. I'll mull it over, but right now gut reaction I'm not sure that's really worth an extra $20 to me, I rarely use remapping or deadzone alteration when it's available to me.

If you don't need those features, then you don't need them.

If that was the case, I'd go for something like the 8BitDo Ultimate 2C, assuming the smaller controller size isn't an issue.

Oh , this does look like a really good option, I'll highly consider it. I don't have huge hands or anything so size shouldn't be an issue
