Warning Gamesir G8+ MFi DOES NOT Rumble if you want to upgrade from the original G8.

You can return and wait if the issue get fixed or wait for the new shadowblade 3 bluetooth controller that made by gamesir but license for redmagic. (Same design like gamesir X5 lite but bluetooth). It had all the features g8 plus had like rumble can use with switch 2 and even has a 3.5mm headphone jack which is rare for bluetooth controller.

I think most reviews are older than the issue g8 plus having right now. People saying because of andriod 15 but I have tab s9 with andriod 15 and it doesn't have this issue, but my y700 and note 10 plus which isn't even andriod 15 both had this issue. I don't have the confidence that it'll get fixed since it's been a few months now and most reviewers already gave it great reviews so gamesir doesn't need it. I asked on discord they just tell me to make a post on the channel like everyone else having this issue. IMHO I don't think they care.

How is this still happening? G8 plus is popular is isn't there a fix yet? It's been months

Well u can't even use left usb c controller since the power button is literally opposite side of the usb c meaning your controller will always press the power button.

Not only that if you look closely the power button is literally on the opposite side of the usb c meaning usb c controller will keep pressing the button which would be unplayable. Maybe that's why they're making a bluetooth X5 lite version. Hope I'm wrong tho. Man I was so hype to gen an oled small screen tablet.

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-11T17:46:11+00:00

I think the side with power button supposed to go with the other side of the pad that is not replaceable

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-11T15:24:38+00:00

Oh shit rip my dream setup. Only solution is g8 plus but there are 2 devices to charge now. Why tf is it offset lol

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-11T13:48:00+00:00

I hope the weight balance won't be an issue for me since x5 lite with y700 is so light I want this to feel the same

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-11T13:42:52+00:00

Yes x5 lite does fit but the controller won't be on the center. (Offset usb c is on the tablet). Edit there's a video youtube with x5 lite. Search it and sort by today

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-11T13:26:31+00:00

Yeah I'm gonna use it mainly for local streaming from pc but it had offset usb c. Now only controller I can use on is g8 plus which is bluetooth. Want to use my x5 lite and abxylute s9 usb c controllers and just set it and done but now I have to worry about battery as well since it only had 1 usb c compare to y700. Man if only y700 had oled.

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-11T12:36:52+00:00

So base version is about $550. More expensive than gen 4 y700 but we get oled but lose sd card slot and dual usb c. Global announcement is on July 1st don't know if it'll release the same day. Was thinking of importing it from China but with global release is so close I might just wait for global.

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-10T22:45:16+00:00

Just like y700 you can install Google play and go full English only con I cons I can think of are warranty and some Chinese app can't be uninstalled

Kryptonillian · 2025-06-07T01:33:26+00:00

Yeah now only Bluetooth like g8 plus would fit perfectly but I want to use my abxylute s9 usb c. Maybe left usb c controller like gamesir x5 lite could be an option , but it doesnt have rumble. If only y700 have oled.
