    Looks and feels great. Had no problem connecting to a MacBook. Love the classic controller feeling. I think it may be more comfortable for longer sessions than my modern series x controller.

    Got this controller to go with Capcom Fighting Collection 2 and it rocks. The D-pad is really precise and feels great. Face buttons are a good size and elevation. Triggers aren't my favorite but do the job. Overall shape is good, not quite as comfy as a ds4 but a bit bigger in some ways. Was able to use it on Switch 2 with a simple firmware update. Awesome controller overall

    Like most 8BitDo controllers the quality is excellent. The addition Hall Effect sticks potentially increases the life of the controller. A word of warning, this thing has a tendency to glitch out when over charged. So when you are playing plugged in for an extended period it is best to remove the battery all together.

    I have used the controller with my Mac and an Android tablet. Works great with both. Have not tried with my Switch yet if it works well with that, then 5 stars.

    It has a really sleek and retro design. I personally opted with the black one since it matches with any color. However, the gray retro color scheme is also really good. The controller feels very solidly built and I would say it surpasses the quality of an OEM Xbox controller and Switch Pro controller. Definitely recommend.
