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!

This controller feels much better than other controllers at this price point. My hands dont cramp up on longer gaming sessions. Overall better than the other Pro Controllers.

Better the Switch Pro controller, uses Hall effect joysticks and supports Windows/Xbox and docked Switch/Switch 2 using 2.4G wireless (after firmware update), and anything with Bluetooth (Steam Deck, smart TV, etc)

I've used this controller for both my Switch and on my PC. I personally really like the two back paddles on the back of the controller and the ability to customize the buttons. You will need to download their software on your computer to remap it though. The buttons and joysticks are very responsive and feel nice... idk how else to describe them haha
One negative thing is that if you want to connect it to the PC, you'll need a free USB port on your computer since the connection is through the 2.4G adapter.

Out of all the controllers I've tested, this is definitely in my top 3! In terms of Nintendo Switch controllers, I think its the best! It's hall effect joysticks are really precise and makes drift nonexistent. As for PC controllers, this is in my top 3 behind the Xbox Elite Controller 1 and 2. While I say that, you have to consider that the 8bitdo Ultimate is almost $100 cheaper than either of these options so in my opinion, its the best value controller for your PC.

This is by far my favorite switch controller. The joy sticks are fantastic and better than my pro controller. I do miss the NFC for amiibo but everything else is so much better that i dont mind needing to switch controllers for a bit to scan amiibo. I love the switch to change between bluetooth and 2.4 ghz, I use it to jump between my switches without needing to pair it each time.

For the price and features nothing else compares, I've had 2 other 8bitdo controllers but this one is the best out of all them by far. Feels great and is super light

Have been buying original controllers and having issues with joy on drift so it's a pleasure play with this.
Also with a switch of a bottom I can change between being connected to my switch vs being connected with my pc.
Absolutely love it

it disconnects way too often from the switch
Mine is currently disconnected completely like it got deleted from the system
I regret not getting the pro and avoiding these issues
Not worth the price tbh, considering the limitations

This controller is well-made, easy to setup, and feels good in your hands. It's much easier to use than the two small controllers that come with the Switch.

Awesome controller. Works great, has a neat charging dock and is able to connect to various things. The app is also great, you can do all sorts of things in the app.
