Works great ! Love using it for emulators on my phone. So small I carry it in my belt phone pouch which also carries my air pods and phone and all three items fit perfect. Very comfortable even for its tiny size !

The 8Bitdo Micro Bluetooth Gamepad is an awesome mini controller for the Switch! It’s super compact and lightweight, making it perfect for gaming on the go. Despite its small size, the controls are responsive and comfortable to use. It connects easily via Bluetooth, and I love that it doesn’t take up much space in my bag. Great for travel or quick gaming sessions!

It works very well, it connects to bluetooth quickly and has little to no input delay. My biggest concern was that it was too small but it really isn't, it's reasonable comfortable and extremely compact.

First, I want to mention that if your controller is having disconnection problems, immediately check the firmware and update it. v1.04 resolved these problems for me so I encourage you to try that first.Pros:+ The buttons are surprisingly good. It's a little bit scrunched but I was able to play most retro games on an iPad Air 5 and iPad Mini 5. It's far superior to touch screen controls+ Lightweight. With the lanyard attached it's 29 grams. Without, it's 26 grams. The portability factor means that I don't mind bringing it along for travel or commuting.+ USB Type C charging is incredibly convenient+ Battery life seems to be solid and I've been able to get several hours of usage over the course of a week.+ For iOS and iPad OS, the DirectInput option seems to play best with most emulators like Delta. Keyboard mode works well as a fallback option for other games.+ The companion app on mobile lets you customize the buttons and use the controller as a keyboard with several profiles to change the mappings. I used this a ton with iDOS for old MS-DOS games and to also use with different iOS apps. It worked surprisingly well for me on iOS.Cons- Out of the box I did have many disconnect problems on an iPad Air 5. The controller shipped with Firmware v1.03. After connecting it to a PC and using the updater tool to update the firmware to v1.04, the connectivity problems have been resolved. Make sure you try a firmware update if you experience disconnection problem.- The ergonomics are going to depend a lot on your hand size. I find this is okay for short sessions but it may cramp up your hand if you play too much.- Sometimes I find it far easier to press L2 and R2 on the inside of the controller than the outer L1 and R1 buttons. This is a fairly minor concern.

This is the perfect controller to have for Anki. For starters, at the bottom of the controller you can essentially create 3 different Bluetooth profiles. I have one for my PC, one for my MacBook, and the other for my Surface Pro tablet. It charges USB-C. It has a plethora of buttons to be mapped using joy2key for PC and karabiner elements for Mac. 12 hour battery life. Super portable and small for travel, yet the buttons are firm - not a flimsy remote at all. Anki is more of a game than it's ever been thanks to this solid remote.

You can use it for a lot of things, personally I use it as a bt page turner for my e-reader. This is thanks to the keyboard mode

I was deterred by a review that stated the d-pad was a bit delayed, but I took the chance.To start, it's micro.... I mean smaaaaall. Its exacly as advertised. For some it cramps the hands, for me it was good enough to play Mario kart for the switch, and dominate like a boss.(my own skill to adapt to almost anything, mind you somepeople have hand cramps) and even playing any emulated contra game, where ever button press matters to the millisecond, the d-pad held firm and accurate, and the triggers and buttons made the first and second level of nes contra and snes contra pretty easy. Quite simply the buttons and d-pad are on point.I would most definitely say after playing on the switch and emulation on my phone this is a very reliable device!!For the guy who had the bum d-pad sorry that happend, but give it a second chance. My first exp was great!

Ich nutze den Controller hauptsächlich an meinem iPad, und er ist einfach ideal für Procreate-Shortcuts. Die Tasten lassen sich leicht belegen und machen das Arbeiten in der App noch angenehmer und schneller. Aber auch für kleine Spiele ist er perfekt geeignet – die Reaktionszeit ist gut, und er liegt bequem in der Hand. Egal, ob für kreative Anwendungen oder ein kurzes Spiel zwischendurch, der Controller macht wirklich Spaß und ist vielseitig einsetzbar!

This controller is compatible with the Hover X1 drone for manual flight mode, and while the initial setup is a bit tedious, it functions quite well once you get it working. The controller connects to your phone via bluetooth, and then the Hover app on your phone connects to the drone to relay the controller commands.First you need to put the controller in "keyboard mode" and map the buttons to keys that correspond to the supported flight controls (forward, backward, up, down, strafe, etc). This involves running the 8bitdo app on your phone and connecting the controller to it, which I expected a modern mobile app would walk you through, but it provides no instructions when launched. You have to click the lower-right button with the checkered pattern on it to power on the controller, and then hold it close to your phone until the app displays a picture of it, at which point it tells you to click the power button again to connect it to the app. The controller isn't actually paired yet, but the app can now update its configuration. At this point, it will tell you to switch the controller to keyboard mode if you haven't already, using the little slide switch at the bottom. The app UI is very basic with no real guidance, and it forces an awkward horizontal layout, but essentially you will click on the "Buttons" tab and then assign each button to a key, and finally click the "Sync" button to upload the key mappings to the controller. On Android at least, keep in mind that if you switch to another app and then switch back, it restarts the 8bitdo app every time and loses everything you've done that wasn't synced, forcing you to re-connect the controller and navigate back to the button mapping screen. Very annoying and frankly unacceptable for a commercially-developed app in this day and age.You can find a guide online for the supported flight control keys, but note that all of the guides and videos that I've seen map the controls backwards of what you'd expect when flying the drone from the camera perspective. I guess these folks are flying it with the camera facing them.When you've finished setting up the button/key mappings, you can close the horrible 8bitdo app and will only need to use it again if you want to change the mappings. Now you pair the controller with your phone as you would any bluetooth device, but first you must hold the tiny button on the bottom of the controller for a few seconds until the blue light blinks quickly, at which point it will show up in the bluetooth device list on your phone. Once paired, you just turn the controller on with the power button when you want to use it, and it automatically powers off after some time of inactivity.Now you can launch the Hover app, connect to the drone, go to manual mode (you'll need to activate this under "Modes" if you haven't used it before), and then click the "RC" button at the top right of the screen. It will show a "Connect" button but if you've already paired the controller with your phone, all you have to do is click any button and the app should immediately update, telling you it's connected.Finally, you're ready to launch the drone and fly it! The first-time setup is a little rough but it will be much easier every time after that.

Partiamo con il contenuto della confezione. All'interno troverete:- 8BitDo micro, controller- Laccio da polso- "Cavo" USB-A -> USB-C per ricarica e connessione. Possiamo subito dire che questo cavetto è praticamente inutile: troppo corto sia per caricare (dovreste lasciarlo a penzoloni sul caricabatterie) sia per l'utilizzo del controller in modalità "con filo" (va da sè che è impossibile).Ho acquistato questo controller, ahimè, non per una vera e propria necessità quanto per la curiosità di provare il successore del Zero 2 (sempre 8BitDo), per la porta USB-C (Zero2 monta una micro-usb) e per il maggior numero di tasti mappabili (12 vs 16, contando anche i tasti direzionali)... ma dopo averlo usato sono stato contento di averlo preso, è un passo avanti in (quasi) tutto rispetto al predecessore.In questo nuovo modello la porta USB-C non serve soltanto per caricare il controller ma, ebbene sì, anche per utilizzare il controller in modalità wired (con filo). Se quindi vi capitasse di rimanere a corto di batterie vi sarà possibile utilizzarlo in modalità cablata.Il mio uso principale non è quello gaming: utilizzo infatti il controller mappando i tasti da PC per utilizzarlo con Photoshop e altri programmi.Rispetto al Zero 2 l'ERGONOMIA, se tenuto in verticale e con una mano sola (vedi foto), è lievemente peggiorata: le forme stondate del vecchio modello erano più "avvolgenti" e stancavano meno l'impugnatura anche prolungata. Se invece lo utilizzate in orizzontale il micro è più comodo e più facilmente impugnabile.La RUMOROSITA' dei tasti del Micro è migliorata: sono più silenziosi, soprattutto i bumper/trigger dorsali (in questo modello sono 4 trigger dorsali in totale, nel modello precedente 2).Il PAIRING è la selezione del dispositivo è più semplice da effettuare nel Micro (nel Zero 2 c'erano combinazioni di 2 tasti da premere in base al dispositivo). In questo ci sono 3 modalità selezionabili con il selettore posizionato nella parte inferiore:-S (switch, per la console)-D (controller Android)-K (tastiera windows)Il tastino laterale, se premuto a lungo, fa entrare il controller in modalità abbinamento.In generale il controller funziona bene, la batteria ha la durata più o meno dichiarata (10-12 ore) e la ricarica impiega circa 1-2 ore.Chiaramente non aspettatevi di riuscire a fare lunghissime sessioni di gaming... le piccole dimensioni sacrificano per forza di cose l'ergonomia. Tuttavia se lo utilizzate in verticale, per usi diversi rispetto al gaming, l'ergonomia è eccellente (non ai livelli di Zero 2, però).Un consiglio se intendete utilizzarlo come me, mappando i tasti. Nelle istruzioni controller viene indicato il programma ufficiale per mappare i tasti, usandolo nella modalità K.Tuttavia mi sono trovato meglio connettendo il controller al PC utilizzando la modalità S (switch), e connettendolo al PC (che lo vedrà come "Pro Controller").Dopodichè installate il programma AntiMicroX (software Open-Source che trovate su GitHub), che vi permetterà di personalizzare il pad in maniera infinita: potrete anche associare alla pressione di un tasto del controller la pressione di più tasti contemporaneamente (es. premo il tasto B per fare copia CTRL-C, e il tasto A per fare in incolla CTRL-V)...Fidatevi, utilizzandolo in questa maniera non tornerete più indietro.In conclusione il controller mi è piaciuto, la qualità è la solita 8BitDo (alta), e la presa USB-C così come l'incrementato numero di tasti (16 in totale) mi hanno convinto alla acquisto.Al prezzo di circa 20€ nell'Ottobre '23.Consigliato!Mi riservo di aggiornare la recensione nel caso in cui vi siano cambiamenti rispetto a quanto scritto sopra.
