Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with the build quality, charging dock, and the overall feel of the Ultimate Bluetooth Controller. Many appreciate its compatibility with multiple devices, including the Nintendo Switch and PC, along with the comfortable design and responsive buttons. While some experienced connection issues, positive feedback on battery life and the D-pad were also prevalent. A few users mentioned concerns about potential stick drift, but this was not a universally reported problem.

    Overall, this controller is great and the convenience of being able to easily switch between a PC and a BT device (switch for me) is great. However, I wish you could pop the buttons off and switch them between the nintendo layout and the PC/xbox layout cause it's a bit disorienting to have to do that flip mentally all the time. That's hard to do though I understand, and short of that it couldn't be much better.

    Bought it and use it for a month. Smooth experience sturdy build quality. Only downside is need to shake it to wake NS from sleeping. Overall great alternative for NS pro controller.

    Pretty good controller, works good on my PC. Feels pretty good in the hands; has that texturing in the plastic of the grips similar to the base Xbox series controller. The app to adjust it is cool. I like the back buttons . The dock is nice. A solid package for the price.
