Customers have mixed opinions about the buttons on the video game controller. Some find them crisp and snap back, with useful back buttons that offer a few options. Others mention the trigger buttons act weirdly, and the extra two trigger-style buttons on each of the handles are a bit confusing. There are also complaints about the lack of programming options for button strings.

Customers are unhappy with the stick drift. They report that the stick drifts up after turning left, and the right stick is unstable. The deadzone is described as awful, with the stick not moving for slight aiming adjustments but once you go a little too far it drifts. There is more friction and less glide, so they need to apply more force. Some customers also mention that the analog stick no longer goes backward, stopping them from turning or actually playing.

Customers are dissatisfied with the durability of the video game controller. They mention it breaks quickly, the thumbstick broke after 1 month, and the analog sticks start breaking. The reliability seems to be an issue, and the longevity is not yet known.

"...After taking a closer look, I discovered that the left stick cracked straight down the inside part that keeps it tight in the socket...." Read more

Decent 2D Pad for Xbox and a good alternative PC controller

- Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2023Style: Pro 2 BlackColor: BlackVerified PurchaseI never loved the controller that came with my Xbox Series X. I found my fingers and hand piling or gripping toward the top of the controller. I had purchased the Xbox plug and play rechargeable battery kit and after 1.5 years, it had difficulty retaining a charge. The headphone jack gave out and had to send it in for repair. The Series X controller has always been too clacky and loud (especially the rounded d-pad).
After searching for a new controller, I landed on the 8BitDo Pro 2 Wired Controller. While it seems aimed at retro games, I've had an amazing experience playing Cyberpunk 2077, Solar Ash and some indie games with it and it's perfect for modern games - especially if you have ever used a PlayStation DS4 and miss that shape.
It's wired (and it an ample, long wire) so I never have to worry about recharging batteries or anything. The face buttons and d-pad are excellent and have a less-resistant press than the Series X controller. The triggers are comfortable as well. I highly recommend downloading the free 8bitdo app so you can customize trigger settings, vibration intensity (and the 2 vibration zones), or if you want to customize any buttons.
I don't plan to use the customizable assign/turbo buttons on the back and I do feel myself pressing them randomly as I play. Since they aren't mapped to anything, it doesn't interfere with gameplay but I do kind of wish they made a version without these. That's nitpicking at this point as this is a solid, affordable, comfortable and high quality controller. I always play with headphones and the headphone jack seems great so far. I've had zero issues with this controller and think it's an amazing value.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2025Style: Hall Effect JoystickColor: BlackVerified PurchaseI've been searching for a controller for my PC (and docked Steam Deck) that had the symmetrical analog stick layout that I prefer, and I'm happy to have finally found one. It feels sturdy and well built. The buttons and sticks are very responsive, neither too squishy or too firm. The D-Pad reminded me of the days of the SNES and the overall feel is nearly as nice as a PlayStation controller. Affordable too. A great buy.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2022Style: Pro 2 BlackColor: BlackVerified Purchase...there's one major flaw with it, and that's the flimsiness of the base of the joysticks.
Overall this controller is amazing. Perfect weight, perfect ergonomics, perfect buttons.
My only complaint is that because of the tightness of the joysticks and the plastic used for the inside part, these sticks are one bump away from completely ruining the controller's usability. I've been in love with mine since I got it, played 180 hours of Elden Ring with it and many other games since. Easily my favorite controller ever. Awesome for Apex Legends. Super precise, great weight, super tight joysticks. One afternoon I had to rush to another room and tripped over the wire, and the controller bumped against the side of the desk in such a way that it landed right on the left joystick. Not super hard, it wasn't a heavy slam or anything.
Immediately noticed when I came back and started playing that my movement was a lot more slidey, and I couldn't keep my thumb from sliding off the joystick when doing tight movements anymore. After taking a closer look, I discovered that the left stick cracked straight down the inside part that keeps it tight in the socket. Again, it was a really mild bump, but the plastic used in this spot is pretty flimsy, and if it cracks that's it. Game over for the controller, it'll never work the same way again. I haven't placed even in the top ten in Apex Legends since it happened.
It really bums me out that I'm going to have to buy another one of these now, because I honestly can not go back to using any other controller. If you buy one, be really REALLY careful with it, because those joysticks can not take much, and one careless moment will make your amazing controller completely unusable.
If they figure out a way to make these sticks more impact resistant then it's a definite five out of five.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2024Style: Hall Effect JoystickColor: BlackVerified PurchaseThe sticks being symmetrical is amazing
-triggers are amazing
-LB RB is kinda flat but have a really nice responsive click
-face buttons are perfect. D-Pad buttons are best I ever felt and pressed
-sticks are really nice and Hall effect, maybe a tad short but good
-audio jack and mute switch on bottom, so plugging in headphones into the controller is really good on PC
-x input works so no more struggling to get my dual-sense to work on games
-share button works on pc. Press for screenshot c slight hold for screen recording
- comes with profile mode
-VERY comfortable and I’m surprised my hands are decently big but the controller fits perfectly into my hands
-back buttons are nice, can be easy to press but they feel really good. Use the left one to jump
-ultimate software is a godsend but I do hope they further update and make new features
-feels like a ps4 pro controller that is a native windows
-vibration feels pretty good, and there’s trigger motors so coming from a dualsense it wasn’t that bad
-can wake my pc from sleep with Xbox button
-Xbox button doesn’t seem to open game bar however and doesn’t do anything when clicked in windows
My all time favorite controller right now. The responsiveness and feature set on PC makes this thing a no brainer

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to connect, works great!
Style: Hall Effect JoystickColor: BlackVerified PurchaseIt was completely plug and play, no setup involved, I just plugged it into the computer and was immediately able to start pressing buttons and playing games. Very responsive and comfortable to use. Has a nice weight to it, doesn't feel light or cheap. Very happy with it, would buy it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Calidad en todos los aspectos
Style: Pro 2 BlackColor: BlackVerified PurchaseEs un control increíble con la calidad de ensamble que maneja marcas como Xbox y Razer muy pero muy cómodo, pequeño y con un layout que recuerda el control de ps4. Cómo recomendación si buscas un control diferente para tu Xbox es una gran elección pero antes de comprar trata de sentir un control de play si nunca has sostenido uno para ver si te acomodas por qué no es para todos

Rafael EckhardtReviewed in Brazil on June 9, 2022
5.0 out of 5 stars Excelente Produto.
Style: Pro 2 BlackColor: BlackVerified PurchaseEsse é o tipo de controle que te salva da dor de cabeça. Conectei no meu Xbox Series S e funciona sem problemas e sem precisar configurar qualquer coisa. Conectei no meu computador e o controle já é reconhecido pela Steam automaticamente e igual ao Xbox, já sai funcionando.
A qualidade em si do controle é ótima e se equipara a de um controle feito pelas empresas AAA como Microsoft, por isso eu acho que o valor dele é justo. O que ele trás de característica positiva a mais, na minha opinião, são os dois botões extras na parte de trás (que eu sinceramente não me prestei a configurar no computador, e no Xbox, dependendo do jogo ele duplica alguma função de um dos outros botões padrões). Outro ponto positivo é o botão da estrelinha na parte da frente que liga e desliga a vibração.
Considerações finais:
- Esse controle não liga o Xbox quando você clica no botão central, então você tem que ligar o Xbox manualmente.
- O cabo dele é enorme, o que é um baita de um ponto positivo. Eu estava me preparando pra comprar um extensor USB por que imaginei que o cabo dele não seria tão grande, sorte a minha que esperei ele chegar porque o cabo tem uns 3 metros se não me engano.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buono
Style: Hall Effect JoystickColor: BlackVerified PurchaseEssendo abituato a controller con gli analogici simmetrici come quelli playstation, cercavo un controller con cavo pienamente compatibile con windows da usare su pc. Questo ha licenza ufficiale xbox, quindi ha piena compatibilità con i giochi su Steam, Epic e le altre piattaforme che esistono su pc. I materiali sono abbastanza buoni; a livello di risposta mi sembra fulmineo o per lo meno non noto differenze rispetto al dualshock 4. Il cavo usb-c è abbastanza lungo, una volta collegato non dovrete fare più nulla. C'è anche il software 8bit per regolare eventualmente i tasti o riconfigurarli. La scatola include il controller, un cavo usb-c e un mese di game pass incluso. Per adesso metto 5 stelle perché mi sembra buono, vediamo quanto dura (uso sporadico, 2-3 volte a settimana per 3-4 ore a sessione).
