Awesome Controller, well worth the cost!
Love the form factor and functionality of this controller.Love the dongle, dock and bluetooth capabilities of this controller. Clickyness of the D Pad is really amazing.Another great feature is the ability to move the keys around. Really good for when you link up to steam and you want the face buttons to match the action on the screen.My only gripe is the YBAX face buttons. I kind of wish they were also the same clicky buttons as the d pad.It’s a minor gripe, I really love this controller.

It’s perfect. Just what I wanted.
Have wanted a controller with the dpad in the main position (PS layout) for a while that has a good dpad. I can live with either position for the sticks, it’s just the dpad I care more about the position of. Others are either really expensive swappable ones or just don’t have a great dpad or bad latency (Tarantula pro). This is finally just what I wanted. I love this controller.I bought a wired pro 2 g classic before and the dpad just sucked. Maybe it was a bad one. But I haven’t bought another 8bitdo controller since because I didn’t trust their ability to make a good dpad. But this one is perfect. Easy to press down but still won’t actuate any direction that you don’t want. Perfectly precise and you can feel every direction that gets pressed, and a very quiet click. It still does the thing of being able to press down the middle of the dpad and press down all of the directions at once but it doesn’t actually matter in this case.Gave it a try for platforming (Celeste) and fighting (Mortal Kombat 1). Flawless in both cases.Good amount of extra buttons, triggers swappable to analog or digital clicks, swappable face buttons that are very secure. Joysticks center perfectly and have very low deadzone (could use a bit more tension though). Unable to detect any latency from just looking at screen and pressing buttons (both from 2.4ghz on pc and bluetooth on switch 2). This is basically my dream controller. This is now the controller I will use for absolutely everything.Yes, the face buttons are clackety and kinda loud. I don’t care, you might. And it would be nice if it woke the switch 2 but it’s not enough to make me feel negatively in any way.

The Bloodline is Satisfied by This Very Reliable Controller
Overall this is a great controller that includes a lot of functionality within it. First and foremost, it has a dock, whilst this might be a turn off for some people, I personally love it! It gives me a spot and space to have the controller rather losing it somewhere in a desk. Secondly, that dock acts as the receiver for the controller allowing for even faster input time compared to bluetooth. This also makes connectivity seamless and fast, the second I pick the controller off the dock it just connects.The next thing I really like about this is the build quality, I had the pro 2 and its just a level above it. It has a more tactile feeling d-pad that I love, the controller feels more hefty, the toggle for the trigger, and the extra buttons are all just a plus.Finally, this controller is very customizable. My bloodline comes from a long lineage of Playstation players so we are all just used to the X, O, Triangle, Square button layout. With this controller I am able to swap the faces on the buttons to match that exact layout and that’s just amazing. It also has the ability to swap out different joysticks which would likely help a FPS player who needs a more precise joystick.

Awesome controller.
What a great controller. The fit and feel in the hand is perfect for me. Big fan of the GameCube purple.It was super easy to connect to the PC. Updated the firmware out of the box and off I went. It looks awesome on the dock. One thing they don’t show you on the listing is the dock glowing when charging. And then being able to pick it up for instant connectivity is just awesome.Lots of reprogrammable buttons like back buttons, extra bumpers, etc. The magnetic face buttons are stylish and feel great. Not too clicky for me.The sticks feel amazing. As someone who enjoys racing games, the out of the box deadzones and sensitivity is just perfect.Extremely impressed with this controller, easy to recommend for PC gaming.

Pad davvero robusto e ben studiato per chi ama gli stick in posizione simmetrica in stile playstation.La chicca di questo pad è quella di poter utilizzare tasti colorati vintage in stile snes, oppure con lettere come le console moderne: si scambiano semplicemente usando una ventosa riposta nella base del pad, dove c’è anche un piccolo ricevitore wireless per il collegamento a pc e Mac. Non è necessario rimuovere il dongle, basta collegare la base al pc / Mac e tutto funziona come se avessimo collegato il dongle.Ottima l’utility di configurazione e creazione profili, anch’essa disponibile sia per windows sia per Mac. I profili funzionano sia in modalità Nintendo Switch sia in modalità Windows (2 configurazioni separate).Menzione d’onore anche per gli stick con tecnologia TMR, precisissimi e senza pericolo di drifting sul lungo periodo.Personalmente ho abbinato un adattatore Mayflash Magic-X per utilizzare il pad 8bitdo su xbox serie X.In particolare utilissimi gli switch fisici sul retro del pad per trasformare i trigger analogici in tasti digitali, per gli sparatutto avrete la mira disponibile in tempi ridottissimi rispetto alla corsa di un grilletto analogico.In rete avevo letto di problemi nel premere i grilletti con forza, con il rischio di rimuovere il blocco da digitale ma non ho riscontrato questo difetto.Inoltre avevo letto di scarsa robustezza dei tasti colorati, ma anche in questo caso dopo 15 giorni di utilizzo non ho riscontrato questo tipo di problema.

Quality is great for the price you are paying, everything is good, from the button mapping app to the charging dock.The interchangeable buttons are a bit too noisy, they feel loose but I think it was just manufactured that way

It’s amazing and works perfectly , programming it is easy and the battery is great too.

Le point négatif ? Les sticks ne sont pas les plus confortable et il manque des options de hauteur alors que les sticks sont remplaçables (par des boules arcades fournies inutiles).Sinon, c’est un sans faute pour moi, design, prise en main, assemblage, plastique utilisé, ça sent la qualité.Les sticks sont hyper précis et sans drift, on met la zone morte à zéro dans tous les jeux.Compatibilité PC et Switch impeccable, palettes bien placées, franchement, c’est devenu ma manette préférée.NB encore meilleure avec les embouts skull & co.
