Yep. It's that good.
I charges for about 15 minutes when I first got it and I've been using it for a couple of weeks now with my MacBook and it works great. I still cannot understand how to program the programmable buttons but even without using that feature it is a very solid controller. It is definitely on par with OEM in terms of build quality and materials and it did not have stick drift right out of the box which is more than I can say for my $150 PS5 controller. There are a few games that do not recognize the controller and I realize it could be a game programming issue. The good news is is the OS does recognize the controller and you can use a remapping utility to add support for any games that don't support the controller on its own. Even with the minor inconveniences this is by far the best most inexpensive controller I have ever purchased and I am very impressed with this company. It seems as if all those five star reviews that people are leaving are warranted after all. Highly recommended!

Pretty much a perfect controller
This is an awesome controller in terms of both quality and value. It essentially offers the premium feel and features of any flagship 8BitDo controller. It does have a few connectivity quirks when trying to use it on Android or PC because it defaults to the Nintendo button layout. However, using it on a Switch or Switch 2 is a completely straightforward experience. You just sync it up exactly like any other pro controller. I really can't say this enough, but the overall build quality and comfort are superb. My only real complaint is the color selection. I just wish they offered more options besides all of these pastel colors, which in my opinion are a bit boring and very hard to match with setups

Great Switch 2 controller.
LOVE this 8bitdo ultimate 2C bluetooth controller. With the firmware update it also works on the Switch 2 which is where we use it on. We pick this controller up way more than the switch 2 controllers or the pros. The joysticks, buttons and overall feel are fantastic. We've not noticed any stick drift and all the buttons have been very responsive. It does NOT wake the Switch 2 however, so keep that in mind. Yes you will need to hit the power button on the switch itself...not a deal breaker for us. The battery is pretty decent as we've only had to charge it about once a week with 1~2 hours of use per day. I wish they made this in more colors so we could get a set of 4. Warning! make sure you get the Bluetooth version, 8Bitdo make a ton of different variants that all look similar but not all work on the Switch 2.

Great Controller, not for competitive Smash Bros
I've been using this controller for the better part of a month now, and I have to say that I love it for the most part. The build quality is great. The buttons, control sticks, and rumble are all excellent for a third party controller. I also love the hall effect joy sticks that don't drift. Incredible overall build quality. HOWEVER... If you play Super Smash Bros Ultimate competitively like I do, you will find that the latency of the controller gets inconsistent when really pushed. I assume that the Bluetooth connection is super susceptible to interference, and input latency tends to skyrocket. I have no latency problems when connected to steam, only when it's connected to the Nintendo Switch or Switch 2, and is especially bad when streaming your games to Youtube or Twitch. If you're just a normal gamer, you will enjoy this controller. If you're looking for a dedicated smash controller that lasts a long time, pass this one up.

Easy to pair, great battery life
Great controller. It cannot turn the Switch module on, but otherwise, it is perfect.

USB cable stopped working within a month
I bought this controller to use with my switch and also my pc using the provided usb cable. I love how the controller operates, it feels great in the hand, is easy to sync wirelessly (to the switch at least) doesn’t drift or lag, etc. Unfortunately however, the usb cable started going out just weeks after I started using it. When I play on my pc through a wired connection, the connection would repeatedly go in and out if the cable got jiggled even a little bit. It’s as if the connector piece is too small for the controllers port. It’s incredibly frustrating because I’m constantly having to adjust the cord and unplug and replug it just to get the controller to work correctly. Now, it seems the cord has gone completely bad as I can’t get it to work no matter how much I tinker with it. Extremely disappointing that it didn’t even last a month. It’s also worth noting that the controller won’t connect to my pc via Bluetooth. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong but it’s not straightforward at all.

Good for small hands.
Good for small hands! This controller is much better than the Switch 2 joy on grip. It's lighter, easier to hold and has better button placement than the joycons. The controller paired instantly with Switch 2 and did not need a firmware update as the descqription text suggests. There are 2 things I don't like so much. The buttons are clicky and loud but I will get used to that. The vibration is also emanating from the controller "head" and not in the grips so there is less of a feedback feel. The vibration is also quite strong and that can be distracting. The grips are lightly textured so it won't feel slippery if your hands sweat. Over all, this controller is a very good value.

Excellent
Honestly, this feels better than the pro controller to me. The size is just a bit smaller, but the quality for the price is incredible. This is far and above a better product than other controllers in the same price range.

This controller really feels like a pro controller minus the option to boot your sleeping console with it. Nice color, well built, really worth the price as you get somewhat a pro controller.

For a third of the price of a Switch 2 Pro Controller, you really can’t go wrong with this. PROS: - Connecting to my Switch 2 worked right out the box. Pretty seamless, the Switch thinks that it’s an actual Switch Pro controller. - Build quality is great. Doesn’t feel cheap at all. Has some nice weight and does t strain the hands even after long periods of gaming. - Buttons and joystick feels amazing. - Two remappable buttons and turbo mode - two thumb grips were included (wish they colour matched these though). CONS: - the vibration/rumble is nowhere close to joycons or the Pro controller. It is significantly harsher and doesn’t feel as “accurate” as a result. - noticeable input lag with the two remappable buttons (“L4” & “R4”). - DPAD wobble but this is quite minor.

Feels like a premium Nintendo controller, does not feel after market or cheap in any way. Button travel is perfect joysticks are nice and smooth along with being responsive in the way you would expect. Honestly blown away and will buy more from this brand.

These 8-bit do controllers work great with PC or Nintendo Switch. I use them for an esports club I run to hand to players that don't bring their own controller. The kids like them, and so far, they are holding up with no drift!

Great mid budget controller for the switch: If you dont wanna spend 70-90$ for the Pro controller, but are comfortable spending a bit more than the 25$ cheapo controllers. Feels solid, keys are comfortable, comes in fun colours, has motion control. Great purchase!
