    Had 8bitdos similarly shaped wired non-ultimate controller and wanted to go wireless. This is great. It’s marginally smaller, connects easily wirelessly and wired, and the mappable buttons are helpful for certain instances. I like the weird color way, and honestly, even if you don’t like the colors, it’s not like anyone looks at their controllers when using them

    Arkadaşlar kesinlikle bu fiyata alabileceğiniz en iyi kol olabilir. Ben bu kadar kaliteli olacağını beklemiyordum. Elinize aldığınız anda o sağlamlığı hissediyorsunuz. Xbox kolu kullanıyordum bozulduğu için almak zorunda kaldım. Yüksek bütçem de yoktu. Emin olun aralarında fark yok. Yorumu aşırı şaşkınlığımdan yapıyorum. Titreşim de gayet kuvvetli güzel çalışıyor. Ölü bölge sorunuyla karşılaşmadım. Hassas. Testini yaptım. Gayet iyi. Tek eksisi driverı sadece güncellemek için var. Hiçbir ayar yapamıyorsunuz. Bu da üst segmentteki modeli için biraz kısılmak için yapılmış gibi

    So surprised. For the price this controller is an amazing deal. This is easily the quality of a $50 controller. Feels sold in your hands. Very low latency.

    Controller works great except for the simplest thing. It won’t charge. I’ve used the cable it comes with, a 60w cable for the steam deck, restarted the controller, tried from my PC, directly to the wall, and a power bank, still nothing. The red light will go on for 15 seconds and then stop. I’ve even gone onto their website and updated the firmware: Nothing. I bought 2 of these controller and now need to return both of them

    I have been using xbox brand controllers for a while now (I prefer playstation controllers) because xbox controllers have simple windows functionality. This controller shares that functionality.

    It also has better sticks both because of the tech in them and the default dead zone. It also has better input time. It also fits my tiny hands better. It also has an internal rechargeable battery. It also costs less. The Dpad might be slightly worse but I can’t say definitively right now.

    I literally was better at the game I’ve been playing recently, Ants Took My Eyeball, basically instantly after swapping. Very nice.

    I bought 3 more.

    Wow, was für ein Gerät!

    Ich verwende schon sehr lange alle Arten von Controllern von 8Bitdo und hatte eh schon noch nie Probleme mit Verarbeitung, Funktion oder der Verbindung.

    Gleiches gilt für den Ultimate 2C und das bei einem schwer zu unterbietenden Kampfpreis.

    Top verarbeitet, alle Druckpunkte fühlen sich super an, die Joysticks sind gewohnt gut. Die zwei zusätzlichen Tasten auf der Rückseite sind cool, aber ich habe sie noch nicht programmiert.

    Dass die Joysticks über den Hall-Effekt ausgelesen werden, beeinflusst zwar nicht ihre Funktion, aber hier liegt einer der wichtigsten Punkte für den Kauf: die Technik verhindert intrinsisch Probleme wie Joystick Drift nach langer Benutzung. Überraschend bei dem günstigen Preis, aber die Chinesen haben das drauf (und ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist bei 8bitdo ja nichts wirklich neues).

    Verwendet habe ich den Controller mit Steam (USB dongle, 2,4GHz) und über Bluetooth auf einem Tablet: alles richtig perfekt.

    Mit der Switch verwende ich den teureren Ultimate Bluetooth Controller (und andere 8bitdo), deswegen habe ich den 2C nicht damit getestet (Probleme sind aus meinen anderen Erfahrungen dann keine zu erwarten).

    Würde ich jederzeit wieder kaufen!

    I was a bit skeptical about this controller as I normally use wired so there’s no input lag. After a bit of getting used to, this has become the best controller I’ve ever used especially at this price point. I play a lot of fighting games and if you’re used to a normal controller you’ll love this one. 10/10

    For $29 with the spec’s listed this thing looks amazing. It comes with the 2.4 wireless dongle and has Bluetooth compatibility as well. I have a recently built gaming PC with the latest Bluetooth standard built into the motherboard. Windows 11 connects to the controller no problem! Even detects it as its proper name! Then… no games detect input from it. Yes the switch was set to Bluetooth on the back. The “software” is merely a firmware update platform and doesn’t do ANY of the things the old Ultimate software did. The build quality of this thing feels great. I was excited to use it in Bluetooth mode due to the manual stating the battery life is much better in that mode. It works fine in 2.4Ghz wireless mode with the dongle plugged into my computer… but I shouldn’t have to use it that way. If 8bitdo fix Windows 11 Bluetooth compatibility, put out some normal looking colors, and actually add some features to the software like programming the R4 buttons to keyboard shortcuts or something I would gladly pay much more for this controller. As of right now it feels like a cheap cash grab that is only half developed.

    I have not used a console since SNES but this controller feels good, it’s comfortable in my hands and feels well made. Doesn’t feel to light giving it a cheap feel either. So far a great controller, battery life is also really good

    What I hate is the tiny letters on the instruction I’m old can’t read that print well anymore.

    I have been playing Guilty Gear for over 20 years, across many devices, and I have never, EVER, had a d-pad feel this good and responsive. It’s like that silver xbox 360 controller with the switchable d-pad, but it’s clicky like the Nintendo Switch ones, but it’s also neither of those. It’s hard to describe but feels amazing.

    The buttons are tight and responsive with not too much travel time. They are a tad loud though and you wouldn’t wanna use this next to a light sleeper.

    Sticks are firm but responsive, with minimal wiggle and are what you would expect from Hall Effect sticks. I had to turn down Steam’s default deadzones because they were too high for how tight these sticks are. I think most people will like them.

    Having a dedicated Turbo button is nice, but I find it a bit odd they dedicated an entire second button to mapping L4 and R4, when they could have rolled this all into 1 button. It does have the benefit of letting you controller the Turbo on L4/R4 individually from the button it is mirroring though. I bring this up because that dedicated Mapping button looks exactly like the screenshot button on Switch controllers but it is not that and this does not have support for the Switch out of the box; I would have traded the dedicated mapping button for Switch compatibility personally, but that’s me.

    I would have given it 5 stars but the battery indicator is on the top of the controller where you can’t see it, and while I bought it knowing it lacked Switch compatibility, I wish it had it anyway; so for those 2 factors it loses a star.

    If you care about, or use d-pads a lot, you cannot find a better controller.
