Pros & Cons
Pros
The charcoal scheme looks excellent! Love the smoked black looks great with my black hyperkin retron 3hd. These things work awesome. I think the kids nowadays refer to that as “git gud son’.
Face * are springy, not mushy like some after market controller. In the hand it feels exactly like the original, maybe a little lighter but certainly not cheap feeling. It's very solid and feels oem if not better.
This controller works great with super nintendo. It works on a myriad of other devices. Great wireless controller for an old nintendo.
The * are responsive, the dpad doens't feel spongy. There's absolutely zero lag & the rechargeable battery lasts soo long.
This controller is both aesthetically pleasing and functions superbly. This is a simple review, this controller is amazing.
Cons
Tried updating again and bricked the controller. I'm pretty bummed because otherwise they feel and work great. Disappointing for sure.

Highlights
Quality
Great connection, great battery life, great feel.
Easy to use, no button lag and the buttons feel great.
I don’t know if they changed the quality of these controllers but even years ago buying these they end up useless just not as fast.
Doesn't feel cheap and flimsy, buttons aren't sticky or unresponsive.
Shipping
What a great product fast shipping will purchase more again!
Packaging/appearance
I'll be purchasing more of these, they also look great!
Competitiveness
Just know there are other options out there that you might find superior despite 8bitdo's clout.

These are fine controllers but they do not feel 34just like the original34 as others here have claimed

The original snes controllers have a much softer tactile feel to the face buttons and dpad but the 8bitdo feels too mechanical in its response

Ive also had the pleasure of trying out the hyperkin scout and found it felt far more like the original controller than this one

For full disclosure the scout i tried was the wired model but hyperkin sells a wireless version which ive just ordered so i cant yet comment on lag
