Solid controller for price point.
The controller is working great so far. I’m still getting used to its shape, but it’s solid. It turns on quickly, and the chord is very long.

Better Then Xbox Brand Controllers!!!
These are better than Xbox brand controllers, they don’t wear as quickly, they can take some abuse. They don’t drift and their significantly cheaper than the Xbox brand. Plus, they’re very versatile. You can use the ultimate within an Xbox, you can Bluetooth it to other device devices, or you can use it with a dongle on a computer.

Pretty awesome
Theres not too much to say about it, other than its awesome. Size wise and just general overall feel, especially the sticks and triggers its reminicent of a ps3 controller. The d pad is odd. Its like kinda mushy but its clicky at the same time. I like a more mushy d pad and im not huge on the clicky ones but i like this one. The led fire rings are cool, they react to button presses and everything. So far i like it. I will update if anything changes. Also it can be calibrated through software if it ever gets stick drift. Also update the firmware. No regrets. Get it. One month update: fan freakin tastic. Looks good still. Works pretty good. Headset mic is hit or miss thru the plug on the controller but other than that its good. Hasnt let me down yet. Still reccomend. UPDATE II still working good. broke in nicely. sticks smoothed out. feels nice in the hand, nicer than any other controller ive ever owned. dont regret buying still. the cream colored backing can start looking a bit rough after a while but im sure it cleans off. the controller is fantastic. i still dont regret. i reccomended this to several people already (but yk how people are). the purple setting on the fire rings somehow lost some of its adjustability????? they only have 2 light modes now on all settings, dim and barely on now. super weird.

Most affordable in hall effect gamepads
It works great I just wish that I had paid attention to see if it were wireless. Connects flawlessly, durable, works for Xbox, PC, steam deck. Buttons are hard to see in low visibility. Build quality is fantastic buttons are clicky rather than mushy, and no stick drift as of yet, just as advertised. Pick these up while they are still available they are often exported to other countries most notably the US where tariffs are going to drive up the prices of these items. Would buy again if it's still affordable and hopefully I will never need another controller for a long time. I also mentioned it's the most affordable not the cheapest. Why I said it's affordable is because it's probably going to last longer than the cheapest option which gives you better value for your money. I would still take care in using these because I know how people can get when they get frustrated with games and they tend to throw controllers. (Please do not throw your controllers, I am not responsible for anything if you do so) EDIT: some games on steam might not play nice with this controller. AVGN 1+2 are the ones that I tested that have this problem. A lot of the button mappings are mixed up and you might have to fiddle with the steam controller mappings to get it to work correctly otherwise works well with literally any game, and works well for emulation too.

Solid Performance On a Budget
I picked up this controller to replace an aging DualShock 4 I'd been using with my PC since I both prefer the Xbox form factor and I kept running into compatibility issues with the DS4 I couldn't be bothered to solve with 3rd party software. Packaging: The controller is well packaged though not "premium" insofar as it doesn't include a carry case or any additional accessories such as thumbstick top replacements. However, it is securely packaged and does include a 1 month free trial of Xbox GamePass Ultimate ($20 value) which is a nice touch. The included USB-C cable is color matched, well constructed, and plenty long enough to be routed to the back of my PC while still allowing for ample slack. Initial Impressions: The controller is solidly built and reasonably light in hand without feeling cheap. There was some minor friction squeak at the top of the travel on the left thumbstick. Some rotation back and forth at the problem spot seems to have removed whatever residue or irregularity was causing the issue though. As advertised the thumb sticks and triggers are hall effect. They are smooth, and adjustment in Steam allows the thumb sticks to have effectively no dead zone. Other than one issue with the triggers (detailed below) I think they feel and perform admirably. It should be noted that the actual color of the controller body is considerably lighter than the product pictures indicate. Whereas the images show a darker forest green the controller body is primarily more of a sage green with darker forest green buttons. I do not mind this, but it is something to point out as these images are official from 8BitDo, and it also appears darker on their website than it is in person. Lighting: This will be to each person's taste. There is no RGB "cycle", or single color "pulse/breathe" as is commonly seen on other RGB products. You basically have a number of set colors within three modes (plus off). Two of the three modes ('Rainbow Ring' and 'Light-tracing') can have their brightness set on a per-color basis with an automatic memory function so they do not have to be set every time the controller is turned on. The 'Fire Ring' mode cannot have its brightness decreased, but you can control the speed of the circling contrast color for each of the available preset options. If the controller is left idle it will cycle your set color on and off in about a 1-2 second cadence. This can be distracting, so you may want to just turn the lighting off entirely when not in use. Software: The software for this controller does not provide any ability to customize lighting, remap buttons, or assign macros. The only functionality is to update the controller's firmware. Given that remapping can typically be done via Steam or in games I am not very concerned with this. Issues: Other than the aforementioned thumbstick squeak which resolved quickly I have encountered two issues. Of the two, I was able to resolve one myself. Issue 1 (resolved): Triggers did not initially register as analog I noticed when testing the controller in Steam that the triggers were only registering their max value about halfway through their travel. There was no progression of input value which indicated that their function may only be digital rather than analog. After research and contacting 8BitDo support I managed to resolve it by entering calibration mode and actuating the triggers. After doing this I checked again in Steam, and it appears to be working correctly. Issue 2 (unresolved): Controller does not turn on unless manually unplugged and plugged back in I noticed this after restarting my PC and then pressing the Xbox button to turn the controller on. It would not wake, and necessitated unplugging the USB C from the controller and plugging it back in. After that, it functioned fine. This is a minor annoyance in my opinion but if the USB-C port fails prematurely from this process as indicated by some reviews then I will amend my review. Final thoughts: This is a decent quality controller for the price point. If you are looking for wireless functionality or deeper customization this will not suit your needs. However, for my use case it works almost perfectly. Time will tell if it is also durable. If not: I may seek out other options. Be sure to update the firmware then calibrate both the thumb sticks and triggers before use.

Great controller for the price
After my expensive official xbox controller got stick drift after 13 months just outside the warranty, I vowed to never buy another official controller again so here I am. I have purchased a lot of third party controllers over the years and this one may be the best yet. I use it for Windows gaming. It has a fair price, the lights are pretty neat, and it actually feels like an official controller. The controller itself, the rumble, and the buttons/triggers don't feel cheap at all like you get with other third party options. Very happy so far! I've only had it for a few weeks so obviously no stick drift at the moment but so far so good.

Per il costo, è un joystick fantastico. Feedback dei tasti ABXY ottimo, lo preferisco alle originali Xbox. D-pad nettamente migliore. Unici tasti che non reputo migliori del corrispettivo XB sono i trigger RT/LT che sono più simili agli R2/L2 di PlayStation. In generale sembrano di ottima fattura e danno un ottimo feeling. Vedremo nei prossimi mesi se mi faranno ricredere o confermerò le 5 stelle

Dopo più di una settimana di utilizzo e tante ore di gioco, mi ritengo pienamente soddisfatto dell'acquisto. Ho altri prodotti di 8bitDo, ad esempio la chiavetta che permette l'utilizzo di pad ps5/4 o Xbox con Nintendo Switch in modalità dock, e sono sempre stati di alta qualità. Il pad in questione presenta una reattività ottima, una buona ergonomia, molto leggero e tasti e croce direzionale di ottima qualità. I due Stick analogici con sistema Hall effect dovrebbe scongiurare l'incubo del drift (sperando che Sony, Microsoft e Nintendo prendano esempio per l'utilizzo nei loro controller ufficiali). Per chi non lo sapesse in sintesi il sistema Hall Effect consiste nell'utilizzo di magneti al posto di sistemi meccanici, evitando il contatto fisico fra i meccanismi interni dello stick. In tal modo ne piccoli detriti ne la normale usura dei componenti per via dell'attrito, possono causare il famigerato drift. E pensare che questa tecnologia era stata già applica da Sega prima in un pad speciale per Sega Saturn e poi nei pad ufficiali di Dreamcast. Chissà perché nessuno ha mai pensato di continuare su questa strada visto i problemi insorti sui pad delle ultime due generazioni di console. Il prezzo del pad 8bitDo è molto buono per la qualità offerta. La presenza dei led sugli analogici con due differenti colorazioni più uno ad effetto arcobaleno, selezionabili tramite l'apposito tasto posto al centro del pad, gli da un tocco particolare. Il cavo in dotazione è abbastanza lungo da poter giocare alla giusta distanza e qualora Ve ne servisse uno più lungo potete adattarci qualsiasi cavo usb-usbc in quanto non è fisso al pad ma removibile. Ah dimenticavo: il pad è utilizzabile su tutte le console Microsoft e su PC.
