Pros

The latest version allows connecting a google stadia controller to it, as long as the controller has been converted to bluetooth mode. The only issue i am having right now is the fact that adapter thinks that its a xbox controller instead of a ps4 and...  Read More

This is a great product. Its absolutely astounding. A little overpriced at £13 tbh.



Cons

Made a barely playable game online unplayable. Has no support for xbox controllers. Doesn't pair with xbox controller to render it useless.

Only connects my ps4 controller to my pc for a moment before disconnecting. Retried with ps4 controller still does not work. Also i get worse hotspot connection speeds than someone next to me.

Playing hades and mario kart with the ps5 controller feels like cheating.


So got the 8bitdo and used a spare xbox control which works amazing.

Competitiveness


Love playing my switch with a ps5 controller.


The connection to the controller is instant when both are in pairing mode ( how it was for me with my ps5 controller ).


First thing i'd recommend doing is download the update tool from 8bitdo website and do a firmware update.

    The only issue i am having right now is the fact that adapter thinks that its a xbox controller instead of a ps4 and so the buttons display in the games wrong

    The directions are really poor though leaving out critical information like the need to enable pro controller live communication on the switch and entering pairing mode by holding the ps button and share on the controller for 3 seconds

    I was feed up with buying joycons and them getting the dreeded drift issue

    The connection range is decent but could be worked upon

    I have not been able to test one 8bitdo controller officially by that company so unable to confirm if thats as smooth as the ps5 controller

    Hopefully this will be fixed in a future firmware update
