I barely played it, and I handled it carefully, but the hinge on my unit cracked after about a month. Other users have reported similar issues.
The warranty process was equally frustrating: 8BitDo requires customers to ship defective units to China at their own expense, including shipping and customs fees. Since I paid only ₱900, returning it could cost nearly as much as buying a replacement.

Poor durability and an impractical warranty. skip the FlipPad.

The mouse was working fine till today where all of a sudden while I'm playing WoW, left/right click stop working altogether. Their clicks don't register at all. I updated its firmware to the latest version, too. Any help? I also emailed their support so I will update here if they respond.

I've just received my first 8bitdo controller and I like it. The only thing my controller has is when the heavy rumble motor in the left hand is turned on I hear some kind of electric zooming. It doesn't even have to rumble at that moment. You hear it as soon as the motor turns on. Is this normal for the ultimate 2? Otherwise I'll swap it for a new one.

My old headset (used turtle beach headset) jack broke and I just got a new headset today, NUBWO HG04L. I've never had an issue with a mic on the old headset despite my Xbox settings showing that there was no headset mic. Worked perfectly fine. Now I'm having a problem where the mic isn't working on this controller at all, works fine on an original Xbox controller but not this one. Did all the settings resets for discord, even tried it on overwatch and it only worked there when I connected it to the original Xbox controller. I can't use that one because of stick drift. Is there any way I can make this work or are they incompatible?

I looked on the site but they don't have this part up for sale. It's a rubber plunger beneath the RB and LB buttons. The right one tore and had become mushy and I'm looking to fix it myself.

Finally making the jump for a Switch 2. Currently, I have an Ultimate 2 Bluetooth (https://www.8bitdo.com/ultimate-2-bluetooth-controller/) for use on Linux, and I quite like it. Does anyone have experience in swapping a controller between two different systems, and how was it? Or would I be better off ordering another?

I have a few questions for anyone that got their Ultimate 3E delivered. Some reviews mention that Steam input isn't supported, is this still the case? And if it's not, does the motion aiming work? Or the trigger motors?

I have noticed the button become "softer" over time, no longer clicking like the other face buttons. And recently, sometimes pushing it down does nothing at all. Is there any tricks to fix this?

I must replace the trigger pads twice a year on my Ultimate Bluetooth controller, is the Ultimate 2 better? I realize it's not the pads but the triggers extremely thin contact point that cuts into it.

The two joysticks on my 8BitDo Ultimate C 2.4G cracked; I checked the official website and found replacements, but I don't know the exact model. Please help.

I've tried using it wired and with USB Wireless Adapter 2 but rumble will not work in Steam games.

On the 8bitdo Ultimate 3E can I update the firmware for the dongle AND controller using the Xbox Software X or do I need to do it on a PC? I'm on XBOX.

Hey, hey. Just wanted to share my finding today. I just picked up this N30 Pro 2 controller for a cheap price (used ofc). Box is a little scuffed but the controller is still in a perfectly mint condition.

I have small hands-ish (see pic 3) so holding the controller won't give me a carpal tunnel. I've been planning to use this controller just in case if I wanted to travel. I primarily use this as a backup/travel/2nd player controller for my tablet and my Switches. Anyway if y'all got the same controller. Lemme know your experience with this. Cheers.

Is there any way to turn off or dim the white light in the center of the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless controller? I honestly can't stand it. It's extremely bright and distracting, especially when playing in a dark room.

I recently purchased an 8BitDo Pro 3 controller, I was trying to update the firmware through the ultimate software v2 and since I've updated it none of the lights are working to indicate any power from the controller.

I've tried reconnecting it through USB wirelessly, and no power light is coming on to indicate that it's charging (I'm using the cable it came with along with tested it on my phone to ensure it wasn't a faulty cable). I really don't want to have to return this controller, any help is appreciated.

I just got an Sn30 controller and it works pretty well... Except the R button. It only works if I press it dead on. At an angle, it's largely unresponsive. The L button doesn't have this problem. I can't seem to exchange the item at Amazon so does anyone know how to fix it?

Hey guys, i have a problem that when i'm playing Hollow Knight with my ultimate 2 wireless suddenly a button and b botton swapping randomly while my gameplay, i want to know if someone else have this problem too

I got a replacement Xbox edition mouse recently and without updating the firmware it was passively charging through the dock perfectly fine. I made sure I unplugged the dongle/extender completely, and updated it using the latest version of the ultimate software. Afterwards the passive charging has stopped working completely. I also saw that the Dongle had a firmware update available as well but I didn't do it.

Has anyone else had this issue happen? And are there any fixes at all?

I don't know if the guys at the company know this is happening, but I'm noticing they don't seem to stock many/any mice at all these days. It's really disappointing! But any help or guidance offered is appreciated!

Looking to buy a controller (this will be my first time buying a controller).

I own a gaming laptop and mostly wanna play story games like god of war, rdr2, tomb raider, spiderman 2 etc. i would rather play shooter/fps games with keyboard and mouse cuz ive been using pc for all these years.

I am thinking about buying ultimate 2c wireless ( the one with bluetooth + wired connection) cuz U2 is just more expensive and and i just need it for causal gaming

Ive seen a lot of reviews about trigger complaints so im worried about that

Ive never bought any controller so please help and guide me guys

Hi all, really could use some help.

New SN30 2.4G purchased ahead of my Analogue Pocket dock delivery and super excited about it. My understanding is that I need to download the specific firmware from the 8bitdo website. I have followed all the instructions step by step and done all troubleshooting I cant think of.

I hold L+R+Start to get the blue and green flashing lights and no matter what my (and 2 other people’s) computers do not see it as a drive AKA “update mode”. What do I do? Does it need this update to work with my Analogue dock?

Trying to update the firmware on my new Ultimate 3E. Whenever I press "check update" the app just crashes... Any way to do it manually?

I’ve been reading a lot online about 8bitdo, heard they make some great controllers, and I’m considering adding either a Pro 2 with Hall effect sticks or a Pro 3 to my collection, but I keep seeing mixed opinions. Some say the Pro 3 is very much worth the upgrade, but the loud buttons are a big problem. Some say the Pro 2 is great, but you miss out of the extra features. I’m torn.
