![]() The controller is a familiar experience overall, anyone who uses an Xbox or Switch Pro controller will have little trouble adjusting. ![]() The controller features 2 back paddle buttons which can be addressed in PC mode, but also mapped in Switch mode if you so desire. I was confused initially when looking, so for some clarification: There is a bluetooth and a 2.4 Ghz version of the 8BitDo Ultimate Controller. On the top of the controller you will find a USB-C port, a pairing button and power/pairing LEDs. Underneath the profile select button there are 3 dot led lights to indicate which profile you’re on. The home button has a soft white ring led to indicate pairing status. The controller features some extra buttons in the center column: The black version resembles more of the Switch Pro, all black everything, with white legends on the primary buttons. The white version resembles the white Xbox Series X controller in colourway, with black thumbsticks, dpad and coloured buttons. The 8BitDo Ultimate comes in two colours, white or black. The back paddle placement is easy and convenient, but might get accidentally actuated if you grip your controller a little tightly. Otherwise placement of the sticks and buttons are in a familiar and comfortable spot. For larger hands I can see this controller feeling a little cramped. The shape of the 8BitDo Ultimate feels slightly smaller than the Switch Pro controller in hand, with shorter hand grips.įor medium sized hands this controller is an easy fit. I haven’t experienced any actual snapback issues, but 8BitDo includes software to adjust sensitivity. The stick snaps back to position quickly. Tension is lighter than a Switch Pro controller and stiffer than the Xbox Series X controller. The stick surface has a slight convex shape with a patterned outer rim that seems to capture a lot of my hand grime. The 8BitDo Ultimate sticks are well designed, with a similar height, surface area and shape as the Switch Pro Controller. This is especially important for Switch gamers, as both Joycons and the Switch Pro controller suffer from stick drift quite a bit. Hall Effect sticks shouldn’t experience any wear down and produce stick drift, no matter how hard you’re pushing your thumbsticks. The 8BitDo Ultimate main thumbsticks use Hall Effect joysticks, a relatively new tech that uses magnets to track position rather than electric resistance that normal analog sticks use.
