8BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth2.4G controller with charging station WHITE

What a waste of time, it is supposed to be plug and play but windows doesn't recognize it using any port. Neither wired or using the dongle. At some point there is a noise of connecting and disconnecting and doesn't appear as a Game Controller. The software doesn't even recognize the joystick. Really bad experience, I have other much cheaper joysticks and other also high end devices that work without a problem on my PC. Can't recommend at least for windows.

The good : Packed with features Has extra buttons Charging station acts as a signal extender, but you do need to connect it to your device 2.4 dongle is great Auto power on when removed from the station Feels good in hands. Haven't had any drift after 3-4 months Buttons and sticks feel great Has apps where you can update it hastle free. Also you can program and map your controller to 3 different maps. Does not get dirty for no reason The bad : Sometimes mapped programs stop working ?? Could be user error Sometimes it thinks that its an xbox controller, not a nintendo one (yes its setuped as a nintendo controller on pc and yes, still could be user error) All in all - great product, really like it. Personally i'd think twice before buying it for the full price, but if its 40 euros - deffinetly the best I've had.

Ótima qualidade e idêntico as fotos. O meu produto foi taxado quando chegou no Brasil, porém o vendedor pagou a taxa para e a entrega seguisse.

Il controller è tra i migliori che abbia mai posseduto. Plastica solida e feedback dei tasti ottimo, completamente configurabile tramite il software: semplice mappatura dei tasti (inoltre presenta due tasti dorsali abbastanza comodi), regolazione delle zone morte interne ed esterne delle levette, regolazione della pressione necessaria all'attivazione dei grilletti, configurazione di macro. Insomma, completo su tutti i fronti. Offre anche la possibilità di avere 3 profili configurabili in modo completamente diverso, con la possibilità di passare da uno all'altro alla semplice pressione di un tasto. L'ergonomia è molto buona, probabilmente se fosse leggermente più bombata la parte del grip sarebbe stata migliore. Non sono mai riuscito a scaricare completamente il controller in una sessione di gioco, quindi direi che la batteria abbia una buona durata effettiva. Lo stand integrato è il tocco di classe, in questo modo il controller sarà sempre carico tra una sessione e l'altra di gioco, inoltre è decisamente più comodo rispetto all'ennesimo cavo di caricabatterie che va attaccato e staccato in continuazione. Notare che ha il layout di tasti della Nintendo Switch. Come ultima cosa, presenta due possibili modalità di connessione, tramite Bluetooth o con il dongle usb, la modalità si può cambiare tramite lo switch nella parte posteriore del controller. Tra le due modalità non ho in realtà notato alcuna differenza, teoricamente il dongle dovrebbe garantire una latenza minore, ma nemmeno in modalità Bluetooth ho notato alcun tipo di input lag. Complessivamente questo è decisamente un controller di qualità.

Its a good controller, after watching ETA Primes review on Youtube (beginning of November) and trusting his opinion I pre-ordered both black and white controllers (for £60 each). I received the white controller on release (around 17th November if I remember correct, I even got a £5 refund as it released at a slightly cheaper price of £55)... 1 week later and the black controller hadn't arrived and there was no update on any expected delivery, so I just cancelled it - the time delay also enabled me to come to my senses and realise I have stupid amount of controllers as it is... x9 8BitDo, x2 Elite 2's, x1 Elite 1, Nintendo Switch Pro (to be fair I got most of the 8BitDo controllers in a job lot on eBay and awesomely they all worked with no issues, so if you are in doubt or unsure I can confirm reliability on 8BitDo controllers is excellent, you can also very easily flash updated firmware's). With regards to this new 8BitDo "Ultimate" controller, I got the slightly more expensive Bluetooth/2.4ghz version, it pairs fine with Windows and overall works as a controller should (Note:- PC gamers are overall superior people compared to the console pleb generation hehe :-p Xbox and Playstation can debate which is better till the cows come home, in the meantime PC gamers will sit silently judging you on your poor life choices :-)) kidding... Maybe). I have positives and negatives and firstly I'll explain my slightly NEGATIVE thoughts and this is in regards to the controller and its plastics feeling very cheap, especially the R1 & L1 shoulder buttons as they have a very mushy unpleasant click. The analogue R2 and L2 is quite a short throw as well and the angle your fingers sit at/have to hold the controller to access shoulder buttons just doesn't feel as comfortable/natural as it does on a standard Xbox controller or even the likes of the 8bitdo SN30 pro+ (basically that 8BitDo controller I am referencing is similar to a Playstation 2 shape but with a proper D-Pad) - Although I guess that is entirely subjective, it might feel fine for you. That being said this is not enough of a reason to dismiss the controller, but it was enough of a reason to make me realise I didn't need a second one and therefore the deciding reason I cancelled the black controller which I had pre-ordered. The POSITIVE and I think the primary reason most folks are intrigued and will buy this controller is because of the hall effect sensor technology - in short zero chance of stick drift. I wouldn't buy into any reviewers on Youtube saying greater accuracy with the analogue sticks and do not believe this technology will markedly improve your gaming abilities - However, If you need to believe that to justify the purchase to yourself then by all means go for it. My other positive is that the D-Pad feels particularly decent - its actually quite a large D-Pad. I use emulators for retro gaming and like playing the original '96 version of Resident Evil (PC and emulator versions) and RE1 uses tank controls, which lends itself better to this 8BitDo D-Pad as opposed to the 3 times the price, clicky and unnatural feeling Elite 2 D-Pad. To me, I think the most sensible option is grab an Xbox Elite Series 2 controller when they're on offer/second hand on Amazon (I got one 4 months ago, "used" from Amazon but in reality the box was scuffed/controller brand new and it cost the reasonable sum of £63)... You can then use what is a high quality and very nice/premium feeling controller till your hearts content and then IF stick drift ever happens, buy the little control board that easily solders in (I got 10 of them/so 5 controllers worth for £6 on eBay - Not had to use them yet but I am considering preventative maintenance and pre-installing them to have at the ready). Once installed this mod lets you use a screwdriver to adjust the values on the analogue potentiometer and therefore correct any analogue anomalies - so effectively with that simple mod, stick drift will never write off your controller and you will always be able to quickly and easily fix it. Anyway, that's my thoughts.
