8Bitdo Ultimate C Bluetooth Controller for Switch with 6-axis Motion Control and Rumble Vibration (Blue)

I'm a casual gamer. I don't play online third person shooters or anything super intense, but I'm big on finding products that offer good quality for the price. If you're a casual gamer like me, I can't imagine why you'd buy any controller but this one. It's solid and well-made, has good battery life, and offers some premium features like rumble vibration and the ability to turn on the Switch. The textured grip feels nice, and it's comfortably sized for both me (an adult with average hands) and my 5-year-old son. The buttons and triggers feel really great to press, and in general I just enjoy using it.Sure, there are few bells and whistles that some gamers will want (programmable buttons, etc). and I REALLY wish they'd release the Bluetooth/Switch version of this with Hall effect joysticks like they have with the 2.4G version. But this is a very solid basic controller that does everything I need it to and does it really well, all for a somewhat unbelievable price.I've bought two of these, and if I need a third I'll buy another (or if they release it with Hall effect joysticks).

As someone who's always on the hunt for the perfect gaming controller, I can confidently say the 8Bitdo Ultimate C Bluetooth Controller has exceeded my expectations in every way. Whether you’re a casual gamer or a hardcore enthusiast, this controller offers a level of versatility, comfort, and performance that’s hard to beat at this price point.

I don’t even know where to start but this Ultimate 2C controller is incredibly comfortable. The blue color is beautiful and calming, I love it so much I’m even thinking of painting my room to match it! The vibration feels solid, not harsh, and the triggers and buttons have a really satisfying feel, also the battery life is great to where you forget about it.I bought the pink one for my girlfriend and the blue one for myself, and both have been great. The gyroscope works well, and overall, this just feels like a premium controller — without the premium price. Honestly, don’t waste your money on a Nintendo Pro Controller. This is better and more affordable.As for concerns I’ve seen about the USB-C cable breaking, I tested it by flexing it a bit while plugged in. From what I can tell, the only way you’d break it is through rough use (like aggressively moving it around while plugged in and using the gyroscope). Under normal use, it should be fine.If you have a Switch or a Steam Deck, I highly recommend this controller. It’s more than worth it.Now for the downside:I had no luck getting it to work with a Windows game like GTA V. It connects to Windows and even navigates the menus, but when I launch a game, none of the controls work. Maybe I’m missing a step or there’s a workaround, but as it stands, I can’t recommend it for regular Windows gaming outside of Steam and the Switch.• Pros: Comfortable, beautiful design, excellent build, responsive buttons, great price, works perfectly with Switch and Steam Deck• Cons: May not work with windowsIf you’re sticking to Switch or Steam Deck, go for it this controller Is perfect.

Solid controller with a good feel and grip. Works quite well in place of the Pro Controller, or along side a pro controller. It is well built like the Nintendo offering, and pairs quite easily. Well worth the money. 8BitDo does a masterful job with most of their products. Nobody's perfect, but 8BitDo is quite close.

Really easy to configure, and vibration function is like a pro controller , liked the design, and is pretty well built, great quality analogs and buttons

great controller! i wanted a pro switch controller for the longest, but i couldn't justify the price - so glad i went with this one! joysticks are smooth, my only complaint is the YXAB buttons are a little “hard” and the typeface is ugly lol. comfy to hold for long term use and holds the charge for several hours, would def purchase again if i ever need to!

Stick with the PC wired models instead and just get an adapter. I bought this for the switch 2 and I have a pink one for context, The pink one i owned was working fine because I had updated it to the newest firmware. Now This blue one i bought, there's no way to boot it into update mode. For those who aren't aware of how to do that press both the left and right bump then press start and home button it'll flash red then plug it into the computer to update the files. What happened in my experience is that the blue model doesn't even register going into update mode and on top of that the pink controller I now own doesn't even connect to my switch anymore because the software for 8bitdo suddenly went back to V1.01 meaning factory reset. It was originally at V1.2 which is necessary for the switch 2. The blue controller doesn't even register at all and doesn't get the files either and when using the update software it says "this model doesn't match ultimate 2C" unless I'm doing something wrong then I would gratefully appreciate but until this both controller and the pink one i purchased will be getting a 1 star. Get something else

Works well with Switch 2 after upgrading the firmware. Better feel and way better price than the official Nintendo controllers.
