Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the Ultimate 2.4G Wireless Controller, especially its instant connectivity and overall performance, with some users even preferring it over the Xbox Elite controller. The controller's ergonomics, battery life, and included charging dock are also well-received. While most users praise the Hall Effect joysticks, some have reported issues with stick drift.

    Solid controller. Lacks x-input blue tooth support

    This is a nice controller overall. The grip takes time to get used to. Also, the fact that it will not connect to my Windows 11 machine without the included dongle is annoying; especially since it lists blue tooth as a supported mode for other platforms. Having to use the dongle is not a deal breaker just less than ideal. Given all of this I still like the controller. The included charging base is nice to have and it connects and disconnects when taking the controller on and off the charger. The buttons, triggers, thumbsticks and d-pad all have a quality feel to them. I cannot speak to the longevity of the build quality but so far so good. The review would be five stars except for the lack of blue tooth support in x-input mode is a real shame. This lack of blue tooth support is poorly communicated on the controllers packaging. Still a quality controller for my computer.

    Been using the 8BitDo Ultimate 2.4G and it has been great. Feels solid in hand, responsive, and the 2.4G connection has been reliable with no noticeable lag. Comfortable for long sessions. Good alternative to first party controllers without the price tag.

    Works flawlessly. Was concerned about the feel of the controller at first. Smaller form than a ps4 controller, yet smaller than an xbox controller. But it feels great.

    This wireless controller allows me to play any type of system without plugging it, or can be plug in with its USB-Stick shaped like a brick flashdrive, 8bitDo really did a lot with their controller designs, and will look forever to more products such as this in the near future

    Best 3rd party controller I have ever had for it's price. Competes with the console controllers you get with your console. Good weight, good feel. No drift with Hall effect joysticks.

    I love the controller dock that is also a dongle always keeping it topped up and in reach. The build quality itself is alright, it has hall effect joysticks for reliable movement with no drift whatsoever, but a somewhat cheap feeling plastic shell. I've had some minor connectivity problems and the software to rebind buttons is a pain to get working. It has some issues but it's still one of the best controllers out there.

    This is the best PC controller I have ever had, way better and cheaper than Xbox. All my buddies have one, mostly to play emulator games, but it's still a great controller for the price.
