Customers often highlight the Ultimate Bluetooth Controller's excellent build quality, versatile connectivity, and long-lasting battery life. The convenience of the charging dock and comfortable ergonomics are also appreciated. However, some users have reported concerns about potential stick drift and the controller's smaller size, while others note the absence of NFC functionality.

    Using mine with my docked Steam Deck. Recommend use the doggle and 2.4 hz connection. The Steam Deck will work with this controller with bluetooth, however, the lag is really bad. The craddle is amazing, for holding it and charging it. Has good quailty feel of material.

    This is a fantastic alternative to the Switch pro controller. The Switch Pro Controller is often out of stock, and the quality and build on this controller is quite close to the first party controller. I'll probably pick up another one.

    I love using this controller. It's easy to go from my Switch to my PC. It feels good to use and is responsive. My only complaint is that the software is a little lackluster and sometimes hard to use. I still appreciate the customization.

    Bought as a Christmas gift for my daughter and she is very happy with it. She is able to play a lot of games on her laptop that she couldn't previously. Great quality too.

    Great controller. Sticks feel very smooth and responsive . Although, I don’t feel any differences between the hall sticks and regular ones. I like how I can use it on my PC, steam deck, switch and iPad. It’s a little pricey but worth it.

    The controller is very nice it has its own charging stand, has nice buttons, and even has "drift proof" sticks. If i had one complaint it would be that the thing is a little small for my hands but other wise great.

    Great controller, amazing company. 8Bitdo makes THE best retro inspired controllers and they made a great non-retro controller with this one. The fact it comes WITH a charging dock is amazing! Always be charged up and ready to game! I use this on my pc with the included 2.4g dongle and the experience has been great with one hiccup. The dongles signal can get muddied up if you have a lot of other 2.4g connections super close. I had it plugged in very close to my wifi router and was getting interruptions with the connection of the controller. So i moved it and its been flawless ever since

    8-bit do has some of the best 3rd party peripherals for any platform, my only complaint about this model is the lack of NFC and wake up support.

    Comfortable and easy to use. I like the Windows software for customizing the layout as well. I prefer it over the xbox or PS4 controllers I have for PC gaming.
