Customer Ratings & Reviews

8bitdo is my go to for blutooth controllers and accessories. This one is another home run product that satisfies several use cases i was looking for. It connects to the nintendo switch seamlessly and has a usb adapter for any other needs. I love the feel of the controller and the charging dock works perfect.

Got this controller open box (excellent) and I’ve had no issues with it so far. Took a bit to figure out how to get it set up with my switch and pc, but once i did that, its been smooth sailing. The controller feels good, the buttons feel good, just an all around good controller to use.

Has nice weight to it and is very comfortable to hold when gaming.

Excellent switch controller at a reasonable price. Recommend

Amazing controller I love the dock and the dongle zero problems

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.

This controller works great with laptop and switch.

Great controller works well on both my PC and Nintendo switch. Love that I don't have to remove the 2.4Hz dongle from the base, you can leave it in and plug the charge base straight into the PC and you can use the controller on the 2.4 mode easily. Love this feature and this product. Would recommend to anyone.

This controller has a great feel and is extremely responsive. The only issue I can find is the fact that you cannot utilize controller profiles while connected via bluetooth to windows. In order to use this you must plug in the 2.4 dongle which takes up a USB port on my laptop.

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.

Almost perfect. The Hall effect sticks are very precise and have not, nor should ever, drift. The d-pad works well and the back buttons are useful, but you can only assign them to work like the normal buttons; no keyboard inputs can be mapped to them.

I've had this for about a year and it still holds up well when I use it to play on the Switch or PC. No problems with latency, charging, or overall functionality. The only issue I've been having is occasionally it will disconnect for a few seconds on PC and it will take a little bit for it to reconnect again. Not a big deal most of the time even when playing PvP games, but still annoying when it happens. Not sure if it's the controller or my PC, but I haven't had this issue with other controllers.

I looked for different controllers for pc and switch. I tried the switch pro controller, the gulikit king kong pro 2, and more. I was severely disappointed with all of them. This is the first controller ive used in a while that is actually good.

Very much enjoy this pro controller over the standard joycons. Very comfortable weight and easy to play all kinds of games with.

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)

Easy to connect awesome to play with! Makes gaming easy and enjoyable!

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

At the time of writing this review it's been almost a year since purchasing this, and the 8BitDo Ultimate controller is still working flawlessly (with daily use) 10/10 product. Comfortable, reliable, and never had any issues with it. Very satisfied customer.

This controller is so nice, I only wish that it worked with PC without a dongle and solely on Bluetooth. When I am gaming on my laptop I just don't want to mess with a dongle, and I get they have a version now that will do this but I also don't want the cheap Xbox logo on it either. But other than that one little thing, its better than an Xbox controller.

Love this controller. Buttons feel good, sticks feel good. Like the look and the feel.
