Like others state some flipped buttons. But aside from that, works great. Most games let you customize your button input anyway so it doesn't really bother me as much.It is decent quality, and i have used it for a few things already.

8Bitdo makes fantastic controllers, the build quality is great. I am giving it a really low ratting because the buttons are labeled as xbox, but they register as Nintendo. So, if you press A, B is registered.A = BB = AY = XX = YThere is no way to remap these buttons without using a 3rd party app. Apparently, they neck band remaps the buttons for you, but I don't have that to try out. Also, the Triggers are digital, which annoys me.

I don’t understand who let this controller pass QC, I love the design , comfort and feel of the controller but there is one major flaw. All buttons are reversed, this controller labels itself as a Nintendo switch pro controller while the layout is a Xbox controller, now the problem with it is on steam deck settings if you enable “use Nintendo button layout” it’s suppose to flip the buttons as a pro controller but it doesn’t at all.Better examples:If you disable “nintendo button layout” it will say “B Select” and “A back” which is incorrect it will do the oppositeIf you enable “use Nintendo button layout” it will correct itself physically but the digital button prompts on the display where is shows you your button tooltips on the bottom of the screen are incorrect and using a reverse layout.What will fix this controller is if 8bitdo or viture physically mimics the Nintendo switch pro controller other than that the control is pretty useless to use since it’s a headache.

I bought it as a controller to use with my remote Xbox glasses xr and it’s ok but maybe just a normal controller would have been better

Things I like:> it looks good> it feels good> it has strong vibes> it connected seamlessly with my steam deck> battery seems to be lasting a long time. In the month or so that I've had it, I charged it once but not even because I was prompted to.Things to know:> The triggers are buttons - they register pressed or not pressed. These dont have analog triggers.This is my first 8bitdo controller and I think i understand why people like them so much. I think i'd still prefer a PS5 controller for PC games that support the haptic triggers, but otherwise I think this will replace my xbox controller.

Can blame it on my expectations, but the fact that this shows as a switch controller and the buttons are wrong is annoying. They say it's for the neck band, but they could have easily picked one of the standards. It's 8bitdo switch pro controller with buttons wrong, that's all you need to know

Motion sickness and doesn't fit my head well (I do have a huge head), it's not for me.I stopped playing with VR games because of motion sickness so I guess i'm starting to get too sensive.I guess glasses like these are not for me.

This is a great controller to use with the steam deck and AR glasses. Love that has Gyro, Connect super easily. Looks super nice and fits well and into my hands. Definitely would recommend as a second controller for handhelds

This is a very good looking controller than matches the aesthetics of that of the Steam Deck OLED limited edition. One thing to keep in mind is this does not have linear triggers. That works very well for most games like FPS and platformers. The actuations are very tactile so you get that satisfying click whenever you press the buttons (even the triggers).I think the 8BitDo Ultimate 2C is the next step up and definitely the way to go if you want the controller that covers all your bases. But this Ultimate C still very good and am keeping it along with my Ultimate 2C.

DISCLAIMER: I got this controller for free when purchasing a pair of Viture Pro XR glasses.Pros:+ Gamepad is very comfortable. It's a bit on a small side. If you have small hands, it will be very comfortable. I have large hands, and I still find this gamepad quite comfortable.+ Thumbsticks, buttons, D-Pad, shoulder and triggers feel good. Has a premium feel. Everyone who tries any 8bitdo ultimate are always impressed by the feel and its quality.+ good battery life. They claim 16h gameplay with 2h charge time, which feels about right, but haven't really measured.+ Has built-in Gyroscope, which is now my favourite way to aim in FPS gamesCons:- It has ALPS thumbsticks instead of HAL effect thumbsticks: This means that over time, the wear and tear on the thumbsticks will potentially lead to some drifting.- Like mentioned in the description, the physical buttons show a typical xbox layout (BAYX), but the mapping is using the nintendo layout (ABXY). I just find it annoying that the gamepad didn't come pre-re-mapped to BAYX.- triggers are digital, not analogue. After all, any 8bitdo C Bluetooth controllers including this special edition one is essentially a switch controller.- Doesn't come with a charging dockPersonally, I only got it because it came with the Viture Pro XR for free. I don't think I would ever purchase any 8bitdo ultimate C bluetooth controller for the reasons I mentioned above. I have the 8bitdo ultimate bluetooth controller with charging dock. One white and one black. They have all the same features than this gamepad, except the thumbsticks are HAL effect and will last forever with no drift over time (in theory), and it comes with a charging dock, and the battery is larger (~22h gameplay), and it has a switch on the back that changes it to 2.4Ghz instead of bluetooth, giving you an X-input gamepad mode instead of Nintendo switch. In 2.4Ghz mode, you lose the Gyro, but you gain analogue triggers. And you get 2 extra back paddle programmable buttons. I also purchased BAYX buttons replacement directly from 8bitdo and upgraded them both because I prefer the Xbox layout. I'm a little sad that Viture didn't go with these higher premium variant of the 8bitdo ultimate.
