- William H.The Champ Has Returned – Outstanding Quality and PerformanceThe 8Bitdo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controller has been an awesome purchase. Right out of the box, it works perfectly with the original Nintendo Switch. After updating the firmware using 8Bitdo’s software (easy to find on their website), it also connects seamlessly with the Switch 2.
I originally bought this as a replacement after my dogs decided my old 8Bitdo SN30 Pro would make a great chew toy — apparently, they wanted to get in on the gaming action. This new controller has me back in the game, and my wife is once again taking second place in Mario Kart World.
Like every 8Bitdo product I’ve owned, the build quality is top-notch. The controller feels solid, comfortable in the hands, and made with premium components. The buttons are responsive, the sticks feel precise, and the wireless connection has been flawless.
For the price, it’s an incredible value — durable, high-quality, and versatile. Whether you’re gaming on modern consoles or diving into retro setups, the Ultimate 2 delivers a professional-grade experience that easily rivals first-party controllers. - William PotterThe Best Xbox/Switch Layout Controller Currently on the MarketAfter using it for about 6 months, I can safely say that the Ultimate 2 is the best controller currently available that is in an Xbox/Switch joystick configuration. That said, there are a couple areas for improvement that I want to highlight and comparisons I want to make. Overall, for $70 it handily beats controllers that are much more expensive and even the first party ones.
First I want to compare it to the Ultimate 1 for returning people. If you haven't upgraded yet, DO IT. I imagine a lot of the 4.3 overall score comes from the old one as that had many more issues, but almost all of them have been fixed. The bumpers are MUCH better, the D-pad is significantly improved, and the new features such as the extra bumper buttons and trigger stops are great. If you have the Ultimate 1 and are wondering whether this is a worthwhile upgrade, it 100% is.
From here I want to highlight each of the areas of the controller in a rapid fire list
• The sticks are TMR and some of the best in the market. I still think there could be improvements to the mechanicals (smoothness, snapback, longevity, etc.) but the sensors are essentially perfect.
• The D-pad is now tied with the best in the market. It has an extremely tactile feel and ghost inputs (up/down registering when left/right is pressed and vice versa) are possible, but easy to notice. However, if you want something more D-pad focused, get their Pro3 instead which is my number 1 recommendation in that regard.
• The bumpers are perfect, literally nothing to say. The triggers are also great, and the new trigger stops work well and use a tactile button instead of just limiting the range. However, there is a slight gap in the mechanicals that makes them feel kinda off. I actually opened mine up and filled in that gap with electrical tape and it feels WAY better but it’s something to note.
• The back buttons are super comfortable in my opinion and feel great to use. It might be nice to have 4 in the future, but there’s a tradeoff for clutter. The new extra bumper buttons are absolutely amazing and something I didn’t know I needed. We are finally getting enough inputs in these locations so keeping thumbs on the sticks is actually possible.
• The face buttons are… good. Nothing remarkable about them as they are membrane pad based so exactly what you’re used to in almost every other controller.
• The software/features are good and easy to use. Setting up profiles and reassigning the extra buttons or using turbo on the fly is extremely simple. However, I really wish that the software allowed for assignments outside its own buttons such as mouse click or keyboard presses. This is probably the biggest downside of the controller and means that the extra buttons can’t ever actually be EXTRA and only repeat buttons which is extremely limiting.
• The dock is quite handy and something I can’t imagine living without now. It’s still easy to take the dongle with you on the fly, but for a home setup, the dock is amazing. Never once had a connection issue with it either.
In the end, the Ultimate 2 gets my #1 recommendation with what is currently available and I have been through A LOT of controllers. The button assignment limitations are a disappointment and some of the mechanicals could be improved, but I’m running out of things to suggest. If you want a PlayStation layout, I’d recommend their Pro3 over this. However, I’d also recommend checking out the GameSir Tarantula Pro which is different enough to warrant its own purchase and is my current favorite PlayStation layout controller. - TimA few growing pains, but worth it.Would absolutely be five stars, but… eh. I changed my mind before posting. It’s five stars. This is my second 8Bitdo Ultimate 2 Bluetooth Controller. My first one started malfunctioning mysteriously recently after about three months where the L-Trigger button stopped responding in-game. The Ultimate V2 App showed that the L2 was reading as always on and would only twitch a little when pressed in finite or gradual settings. Fortnite players know my pain for that specific trigger to be acting up.
That said, there was *no question* whatsoever on my next controller. I ordered this one after about two days trying to troubleshoot and tinker with the previous one (and got the 2-year Asurion protection this time which has been pretty good in the past— my local guys are a drive but great).
This thing is amazing! Looks great, feels great in your hands, grip is fantastic, connects well and stays connected to Switch, iOS, and MacOS — Luna is another story but that is what it is. The v2 app is up now for iOS and it crashes sometimes on iOS 26.2 but is functional. The buttons are springy and the rebound is well-suited to my play style where I bounce my thumb off the button when I tap it. Great bumpers, no mush. The hardware is top-marks all the way. It has the most minimal lag possible over Bluetooth and the TMR joysticks are well worth the upgrade. Motion control is limited to Switch, and for some things the X and Y are swapped on iOS and MacOS so you have to tell it not to do that, but it’s still fabulous.
In spite of (probably me) breaking the last one, it is very rugged. It feels substantial in your hands and is clearly the result of some serious development and thoughtful design. This is the flagship 8Bitdo controller. It’s worth every penny IMHO and when the next one comes out I’m getting that one too. Happy gaming!
