8Bitdo Ultimate 2C Wireless Controller for Windows PC and Android, with 1000Hz Polling Rate, Hall Effect Joysticks and Hall Triggers, and Remappable L4/R4 Bumpers (Purple)

The controller has a nice, solid feel, a built in rechargeable battery and high quality buttons and Hall effect sticks and triggers, for better accuracy, tighter deadzones and greater durability. Colours look sharp, the 2.4 ghz receiver offers 1000Hz polling for near latency free wireless control, and if that's still not good enough, you can connect via the included usb type A-C cable. and for other devices, the included bluetooth makes it incredibly versatile. Only small complaint, and it's not really 8bitdo's fault - Is that the controller doesn't support Xbox. It's still an incredible controller for the cost, but if it had that, it would be absolutely unassailable on all fronts.

I bought this controller as a cheap alternative to the Xbox controller, and I've not gone back to an Xbox controller since I've bought this three months ago. I've broken the rb on every type of Xbox controller since the 360, and honestly I still like them all, but the 8bitdo hasn't broken and I'm really pleased with the build quality. Works with emulators RetroArch, XeniaCanary and Xemu without any messing, and PCSX2 after setting it up.

For the price this controller can’t be beat. The shape is different from the normal xbox controller. The angle of grip is slightly narrower, for some this is good for some this is really uncomfortable, for me i’d say it’s the same just a slight adjustment. (might aswell buy and then return if it’s not for you). i’d say women or people with smaller hands might find this more comfortable than a normal Xbox controller. When i first unboxed the controller the right trigger was in a weird state where it was only off or on at 50% of the way. i unplugged it and reconnected it and this fixed, so maybe some weird one off but. The software could be better, but the hope is you don’t need it. D-Pad is slightly squishier than on a normal xbox controller, but it’s not unstable so not really a problem. ABXY buttons are less linear than normal xbox controller, they feel more like a membrane key where they hit a force threshold and collapse, but they still feel responsive. Sometimes it’s easy to not lift the button back up the whole way when double pressing it for a very quick action which means the button only triggers once, but this feels more like my fault than the controllers. I have dropped the controller once or twice now and it hasn’t fallen apart. My only worry is that the sticks in idle sit very very slightly off angle, obviously games and menus deadzone this, but my worry is that i’ve not found a way to re-calibrate the sticks, which is the main point of having hall effect sticks. Maybe this is done automatically, either way this should be communicated.

Better than an Xbox controller, but has a little drift (you can fix it with 2 buttons on the controller though) and it re aligns itself! Love the colour, and honestly it has a better feeling than an Xbox controller. I use it for phone and pc gaming, and I'm honestly in love with it - would buy it again!

Considering these are normally around or under £25, its amazing that the build quality feels at least on par with all other major players for first party controllers. Hall effect sticks should mean great longevity too, which is rare. My only complaints would be the short travel on the (analogue) triggers and rather small sizes of the control sticks, but these are minor gripes and mostly down to your preference.

Got this controller to go with my Steam Deck living room setup - the 2.4ghz adapter is fully compatible and works out of the box. I've been having issues with Bluetooth signal strength and latency recently so decided to get a controller with 2.4ghz support, the difference is night and day in responsiveness. The sticks are hall effect so you're able to turn the deadzones all the way down for maximum responsiveness. The buttons and triggers feel pretty standard which is a good thing, no cheap hori style wobbly buttons and short throw triggers here. The only downside to this controller is no gyro - bummer for certain types of games (Looking at you Quantic Dream) but for 90% of games this is no issue since standard Xbox controllers also lack gyro support. Colour is nice, but maybe more options would be appreciated, I'd like a white one to match my desk setup.

Honestly, it's only good for the short term. This is my second 8BitDo controller in just six months. I didn't run into stick drift, but I had other issues. With this one, the LB button got weak and was super sensitive during gameplay, which really messes with your flow, especially since I mostly play EAFC. It's frustrating! I'm thinking of remapping it to the L4 button just to get around the problem. If you're looking to buy a solid hall effect controller, you're better off investing in something of higher quality. It might be steep, but it'll definitely save you headaches in the long run.

A good controller, especially for the price. Good build quality and no issues using it so far. This is my second one!

I'm extremely satisfied with the ones I got; they feel very high quality, yet they aren't heavy or bulky. Perfect for small to medium sized hands and they will feel familiar to anyone who used an Xbox controller before. Connectivity is simple using both the included dongle or Bluetooth, the battery lasts for an incredibly long time, and they charge fast and using USB-C. The thumb sticks are extremely precise and have basically no deadzone and no drift. The triggers have a shorter throw than I would prefer but they feel very nice as well. The rest of the buttons have a very snappy and satisfying feeling. I can't evaluate the d-pad as I don't play many games that are heavily focused on it. The vibration motors are also very tight feeling and strong. As for negatives, I don't have much to say, and especially not any that would offset the positives. That's not even considering the aggressive pricing compared to other controllers. I'm very satisfied and already pondering buying yet a few more. If I had to point out something negative it would be how poorly communicated the extra features are. There's basically no documentation included either in the box or on the website itself. In fact, a few features from older models (like 0 deadzone setting) are present but you wouldn't know unless you actually looked online for how to activate them. The software could be more comprehensive.

Der Controller ist wirklich großartig - und das zu einem sehr niedrigen Preis! Die Haptik - auch wenn die Handgriffe sehr steil nach unten gehen zu scheinen, ist sehr angenehm. Die leicht angeraute Oberfläche an der Rückseite des Controllers lässt ihn auch für länger Zeit angenehm halten, ohne das schwitzige Hände nervig werden können. Absolutes Highlight sind meiner Meinung nach die Trigger - diese sind unglaublich reibungslos und lassen so sehr modulierte Eingaben zu. Die Sticks sind ebenfalls sehr gut - mit nur wenig Input lassen sich diese einfach leicht aus der Mitte bringen und haben durch die Hall-Sensoren eine extremst gute Langlebigkeit und Genauigkeit. Kompatibilität sollte auch kein Problem sein - die Akkulaufzeit ist lange, es werden sehr viele Geräte und auch Bluetooth unterstützt, wodurch eine große Bandbreite an möglichen Einsatzzwecken abgedeckt wird. Am PC, wo ich ihn nutze, war es einfach Plug & Play, keine nervige Zusatz-Software oder Treiberinstallation war nötig - sehr angenehm! Ein wirklich guter Controller - und das zu einem Bruchteil der Kosten von bekannten Markenherstellern (bei besserer Qualität) !

exactly what I was looking for. Responsive, pretty, doesnt need confusing setup. No problems so far after over two weeks of daily use

It excellent controller for pc gaming, but be aware it does not work on Xbox series

Molto comodo. Buon grip. La batteria dura il giusto. Colore piacevole e di buona fattura. L'abbinamento wireless funziona senza fare configurazioni. Consigliato!
