![]() ![]() The USB C connector is about 10mm from my crude measurement. For reference, my phone’s case is only about 2mm thick. Despite the USB C connector on the inside of the jaw looking to be a little on the long side, my phone’s case was interfering. Once I had installed my phone (a Google Pixel 4a 5G), I realized that it wasn’t connecting. ![]() If I could change one thing about the jaw (aside from that racking), it would be to add a feature that allows locking the jaw open while inserting the device. One would hope spring strength is an indicator of longevity, and if it is, I would say this is an excellently designed retention mechanism. This, combined with the inward taper on the rubber-laced jaws, keeps the device surprisingly secure without obstructing the display at all. Setting up the X2 can be a little awkward because the spring-loaded jaw that secures the phone is pretty strong. It can rotate more than 45 degrees upward to accommodate an incoming phone, preventing and leveraging the phone’s USB or Lighting port. The GameSir X2 connector was surprisingly flexible. There is no rattling when holding the device with inward pressure on the jaw. There appears to be some slight racking and side-to-side movement in the rail. This rattling comes from the sliding mechanism. Continuing with this impression of cheapness is the hollow shell feeling combined with the rattling of the device when shaken. This immediately communicates a low quality, but as I learned later, it’s possibly more of a miscommunication (at least insofar as the weight). The GameSir is on the lighter side compared to something like an Xbox controller. I feel that it says GameSir isn’t just trying to sell you another gadget they really want you to use it. Within the box was a GameSir sticker, a manual for the device, a thank you (“for your purchase”) note, and a set of four thumbstick grips.Īs someone that was only expecting the device itself and some accompanying literature, I was happy to see these additions. Inside the case, aside from the device, is a smaller box. ![]()
