Q: Does this gamepad have rumble vibration?
A: Yes, this 8BitDo gamepad features rumble vibration for an immersive gaming experience.
Q: What type of battery does this gamepad use?
A: This 8BitDo gamepad uses a lithium-ion battery.
Q: What is the weight of this gamepad?
A: This 8BitDo gamepad weighs 1.28 pounds.
A: Yes, this 8BitDo gamepad is wireless and uses Bluetooth connectivity.
Q: How is the gamepad charged?
A: This gamepad uses a USB Type-C port for charging.
Q: Is this the updated version with HE analog joysticks, or the older ALPS model?
A: So the updated Hall Effect model is 6922621505044 and the older potentiometer (ALPS) is 6922621501787. The newer model only came out in March of this year, whereas the older model was released over three years ago. 8BitDo is clearing out their ALPS models for $10 off MSRP, while Best buy appears to be selling them at MSRP - so I sure do hope that you get what you want. Keep in mind however that the ALPS model uses less battery. If you aren't using the joysticks for most of your games, the older model will go longer between charges. That's because the Hall Effect model sticks have a constant current draw, whether or not it is moving The ALPS model sticks draw 1/10th of the current when idle. Nonetheless, if Best Buy is selling them for $45, they had better be the Hall Effect model and they should be more clear about it.
Q: Are these buttons tactile (clicky) or do they use rubber membranes?
A: Membrane for sure but have a nice feel. D pad isn't mushy but the shoulders and start select can be a little mushy . The membrane on the abxy have a good snap .

Would have been 5 except that the X & Y buttons and the A & B buttons are swapped - so don't match an XBox controller button layout. That's the con. Everything else is Pro. The size, the charging time, response, etc. I bought this on a deal of the day for tablet gaming. Diablo Immortal is only for PC and mobile devices. I used this on my Samsung S7 FE and it worked GREAT. Event htough you can play this using the touch screen, that doesn't work if you want to cast your tablet to your big TV - so this controller works great for that & fits in the laptop bag. Then I thought I'd try it on my smaller 10" Lenovo Chromebook & it worked great for that - I just have to remember where the "real" A button and "real" X buttons are for gaming. I'm sorry I didn't buy 2. I hope they go back on Deal of the Day again. Worth it!

Everything about this controller is great. I love the form factor and the responsive buttons. Only problem is that the pairing process is stupid. For one, the controller turns on with the start button, not home. You have to do a button combo to actually get it to pair with your switch, pc, ios, or android device. A toggle would’ve been nice.

The controller was easy to set up with my computer. It feels great in my hands. The layout of the letter on the buttons are odd but as long as you don’t think about it too much it’s easy to get past.
