Never had an Xbox brand controller that didn't get wild stick drift within 2 weeks of purchasing. Never again.

At the same time, never got an off brand Xbox controller that got stick drift. Ever. What does that tell you?

8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless β€” Charging light turns off after a few seconds. Is this normal?

Hi everyone,

I recently bought an 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wireless Controller from Amazon India, and I have a question about its charging behaviour.

When I connect it to charge, the red charging indicator turns on for a few seconds and then turns off, even though the battery isn't fully charged.

I monitored the battery percentage, and it increased from around 77% to 85%, 91%, and 95% while charging. However, the red light still turns off after a few seconds.

I've tried a different USB-C cable and a standard power source, but the behaviour remains the same.

The controller seems to work fine while gaming. My main concern is whether the charging light turning off so quickly is normal or whether my controller might have a battery or charging issue.

Questions:

  1. Does anyone else's Ultimate 2C Wireless behave this way while charging?

  2. Does the red light normally turn off before the battery reaches 100%?

  3. Should I be concerned or request a replacement?

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who owns this exact model. Thank you!

Sound dampening for controller

0 Upvotes

Is there any good options for a noise dampening on the buttons for controllers? I've looked but can't seem to find anything legit, just didn't know if anyone had Jerry rigged anything or found a way to solve the noise when pressing buttons or moving the joystick. Any help would be appreciated

What is the cause and fix to this issue? Been through 2 controllers that both suffered this fate. They just jiggle all about. Its not stick drifted either.

I was thinking if i should buy this controller or not cause i have seen mixed reviews about people getting stick drift in a few months and some people getting no problems for years so is it like luck based or what cause i dont want any problems as it is an expensive controller

Is the bluetooth connection and usb c wired connection good or are there any difficulties you have faced ?

I only will really play story games like god of war, rdr2 etc on my laptop and would rather use keyboard mouse for fps games

Country - India (i will buy the controller from my local shop)

Other controllers in my consideration are the ps5 controller, third party controller like evofox, 8bitdo etc
