Got this for my brother's switch that bluetooth went out. Just plug the dock into the switch and he gets wireless controller again

It's a great controller for PC using either Bluetooth or 2.4GHz guy

Great battery life, built well. Would rate it up there with my xbox1 controller. Works with retroarch better wirelessly than my xbox controller. Will definitely be purchasing more products from 8bit do in the future.

The letter pad is set to a switch so it makes playing new games on a PC rather confusing. Other than that, it feels great in my hands, handles great, comfortable, and the vibration on active games makes it a fun experience. I have this one and the newest 2025 model for PC. They handle beautifully.

Sticks are fantastic, buttons feel great, and for the price comes with a charging dock. Can connect to all modern consoles and handhelds consoles/phones. This baby has you covered!

Amazing upgrade to the switch pro controller. Feels just right with back triggers and great compatibility. 2.4g wireless has a way lower input latency. Comes with charging hub and the 2.4g wireless usb adapter inside the charging hub.

I bought this controller for the hall effect joysticks. I've had 2 switch pro controllers, several joycons and even an Xbox elite controller all suffer from stick drift. I'm using this controller for playing on the switch. I really like the look and feel of this controller. The buttons are responsive. The only somewhat quirky thing about this controller is waking the switch from standby. There is a home button but hitting that alone won't wake the nintendo. You have to hit the home button and then tilt the controller up and then back down... seems odd but works.

Works as intended, feels good in the hand and buttons work well. No Joystick drift so far, however ive only owned it for a month. Great alternative if you dont want to spend $85 on the switch pro controller

PC Gamer here… In the last several months, I have bought and played on: 3 x Xbox Elite Series 2, 1 x Scuff Envision Pro, 2 xScuff Instinct Pro… None compare to thr 8BitDo in ergonomics, ease of use and especially ergonomics. The “Hall Effect” sticks are as good as advetised and so far drift free… the only thing I’d like to see added to this controller is adjustable hair triggers, but with the software dead zone adjustment, I honestly don’t mind them the way they are. A++++++

I use this with my Nvidia Shield TV and it works great! Battery life is outstanding. The controller works best for me in Wi-Fi mode, though I had to download beta firmware to get the most of it. I will be buying a second controller!

Great feel, sturdy and easy to connect. Lasting charge.

This controller is a great alternative to the Pro Controller. The included dongle in the charging base makes it easy to switch the connection from Switch to a PC with the switch on the back of the controller. Build quality feels great and is comfortable in the hand.

I keep my switch docked 95% of the time and have never found the joycons particularly great for that use. Having used other 8bitdo controllers on PC and Android, I was delighted to see this one for the Switch. It performs wonderfully and the charging dock is a nice inclusion. I highly recommend this controller.

Works great with my computer. There just 2 issues not able to pair with my phone. Also theres some games the buttons dont match. But other then that works great.

Wirks on pc with steam, mister fpga, and switch without a hitch. Feels more solid.than 1st party nintendo and somy cintrollers altho ive only had it for a few weeks so hope it lasts

This is an absolutely high-quality controller that comes with its own charge stand. And yes… When you update it via a laptop or PC, you can use it with the Switch 2. Outstanding!

Works great love that i can set up macros and change settings to personalize it how i want through website download also fits better in my tiny hands than regular xbox style controllers. Pretty cool

It's half the price of the Nintendo pro controller and it comes with a charging station. It also happens to work every bit as well. It's a no brainer.

A bit pricey - another $10 discount and I would've bought three - at least! Comes in various flavors, Android, Gaming Types, Windows, Bluetooth, &more. 1 easily balanced controller with a wide range of default & custom setting which is what I mostly use. The ease of movement is great.

Finally! A good dpad has been eluding me since getting the Switch! I'm not sure why Nintendo dropped the ball so hard on what they perfected 40 years ago. The pro controller was nearly perfect, but that d-pad... I love playing Tetris 99 but until now I was forced to play in handheld or use the grip. Same with the retro games and any other games that need a good d-pad to play. Everything else is great too, the buttons all feel great, and the joysticks do as well. The included stand is a nice touch, having a cubby hole for the dongle is a brilliant extra touch. This is officially my favorite controller of all time. incredible value for the quality!
