Pros & Cons

Pros

Top recommendation. I fully recommend this to anyone who is looking for a swiss army knife of controllers. This definitely fits the bill.

Pre-ordered this for like $70. bumped up to 4. If you are familiar with 8bitdo products, you already know that they are top notch products. I hope i can review more products by 8bitdo as they've instantly got me hooked with this controller alone!

Cons

The controller will, at random and with no discernable cause or warning, become unresponsive until its unplugged and replugged in. Kept disconnecting while trying to play. The polling rate is pretty bad (150 by default) via wired connection.

The thumbsticks are identical to the dualsense thumbsticks, the back of the controller has a textured grip that feels exactly l...  Read More

Competitiveness

This is my second 8bitdo controller and i love it.


I've used a few of 8-bit-do products over the years and they've always been pretty good, but this is a cut above.
