    Wow, great review! I had no idea about fakes on Amazon. Galaxy & CQC are my favs. Also, I like Skull & Co grippy texture for the left stick.

    Hey I run the skull as well on left for some controllers, the no slip grip are also a good alternative but more expensive than the skulls. I’ll be comparing them in a video soon.

    Recently discovered the KF No-Slip Universal Grips and I'm loving them for the left stick! Also wanted to recommend the KF "Edge", specifically the KF low-rise Edge domed on the left-stick, with a Galaxy on the right stick. Give that combination a try! I find that the domed Edge KF on the left stick compliments the Galaxy concave on the right very well.

    Hello Photo Techy, thanks for the review! I used to play with an Elite Serie 2, with the highest stick on the right side. Now, I'm playing with a Gamesir G7 SE, and I miss this greater height on the right thumb. Does Crystal Galaxy fill this void?😅What is the correct CF for the G7 SE? It would be the PS5? Thank you very much!

    Hey yes the PlayStation version are the ones for G7se. Crystal galaxies are actually very grippy and definitely one of the best imo. They do look really good as well and I don’t want to waste them 😂. I’d say any galaxies would be the perfect companion for the G7se for sure.

    I personally use cqc rush on left stick and inferno on right stick. I prefer the concave of the inferno to the galaxy. Cqc rush exclusively only for the left stick. I had some spare no slip grips and i tried it over top of the inferno and it actually fit over it and i would recommend that if your kontrol freeks have lost their grip. None of my kontrol freeks have lost their grip but i had an extra slip over grip and wanted to see what an ever higher high rise would be like and found that i actually liked it. Lol.

    I'm 90% happy with my Nacon PS5 controller. I use the largest thumb grips that come with the controller. The only thing I'm not really happy about is the top of the thumb grip is too smooth. I'd rather if they were a bit more textured. I'd prefer to buy a Nacon official product if and when they eventually release thumb grip accessories.

    Hey so you can try something like a no slip grip on top of that tall cap that comes with the Nacon. I do that with the skull and co but find the KF no slip to have slight knife grip and a similar feel to galaxies.

    @@nickmavis3158 hey so Microsoft has asked gamesir to remove 1000hz from Xbox. The next update of nexus on Xbox will remove this feature, so if someone had it enabled the option will show fox audio port or something, and that’ll disable the 1000hz. Gamesir has a discord post about it and they explain in detail what’s going to happen. But if you already have the 1000hz enabled then it seems we can keep that.

    Dear PhotoTechy, I bought G7 SE and I have a few questions: 1. Can I overlock it to 1000mhz for Xbox gaming? 2. Are build-in zones much smaller than on the default Xbox Series controller? I didnt touch the app yet but in Battlefield I get absolutely no drift with 0 deadzones in game. Crazy. 3. Do you recommend raw mode for all games?

  • @thephototechy

    Hey bro so currently the nexus on Xbox still has 1000hz and it’s working, how long it’ll stay have no idea, as it’s supposed to be disabled on the software when the new update drops. But I’ve read that if we enable it on the controller it stays on and won’t be disabled on Xbox, something will need testing after the update. Out of box there are 10% d eq drones applied on G7se which have to be disabled through the nexus software, I’d highly recommend you do that and use 3-5 in battlefield. Try without raw mode first and enable it if you find the controller a bit slow to respond for that initial movement, I doubt you’ll find it slower with the 1000hz but in 250hz it definitely used to feel a bit sluggish with raw off, something I showed in the 1000hz deep dive video.

    wow the aiming is so accurate with hall effect and no build-in deadzones. Crazy stuff. I feel like playing on another level. Tbh I even like the shape of the caps. I think that Xbox will have to change their plans for the new controller. They wanted normal but replacable modules with potentiometers like in dualsense edge but it will be a mistake if for the same price I can buy G7 SE. Nobody with knowledge about G7 SE will buy it.
