works perfectly fine but too wasteful

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 8 augusti 2022

I connected the latest xbox series x controllers to the dongle and it works just fine.

My problem with this product is that you need one dongle for every controller you want to connect. That's just unnecessary and wasteful. Why not build a more expensive dongle that supports more controllers at once? In addition you need to invest another 15 € into an usb-hub because the dongles are so wide, you can't fit two beside each other.

Putting 3 of these dongles inside a hub, connecting the hub to the switch and connecting 3 xbox-controllers works as you can see in the picture. But it also shows that the console doesn't have a problem with connecting 3 controllers over one usb-port (because you have to trick the console a little in the settings, telling it that you connect a pro controller over usb-cable).

I would have preferred to pay more for this product if it had supported multiple controllers at once instead of being forced to buy additional e-waste.

On the other side it's still cheaper than buying additional pro controller, even when they are third party.

Can use Switch Pro con with Epic & Xbox App on PC

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 10 april 2022

PC user. While the Switch Pro controller works flawlessly with Steam, it will not work with the other launchers like Epic and the Xbox app for PC. I've exhausted every software method available to get it working with these launchers with little to no success, and lots of inconvenience.

This thing works! The instructions out of the box are pretty poor, and you MUST use their website. You must first update the firmware. You then sync connection, then you MUST set the input method to XINPUT (once synced, on the Pro Controller, you hold - & d-pad up for 3 seconds). There are other input methods for other scenarios, again, you need to read this on their website.

Once synced, you can reconnect in a spilt second, which is nice! I have noticed that waking the PC from sleep, I need to unplug the stick and plug back in for connection to work again.

All in all I knocked 1 star off for these issues, but hopefully they will be fixed soon along with some other firmware updates (would be nice to see the Switch Pro con home light working, currently not on 8bitdo). But as far as getting the Pro con working on PC, it definitely remedies the situation very well, and spending £15 on this is, is much cheaper than buying yet another controller.

Will Be A Great Device When Firmware Issues Sorted In Future

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 6 februari 2022

Once the issues i am about to state are sorted this will be a perfect device. Currently it is great for connecting an official Xbox or Playstation controller to play on PC with, however it isn't very good with 8BitDo's own controllers and can behave erratically and cause frustration.

I have an 8BitDo M30 fightpad and i connected it via the v2 dongle. However it behaves in strange ways when connected to it and i presume these are just firmware issues that will be patched in the future. The M30 has button combinations to change the D-Pad into left stick / right stick etc. Works fine doing this over bluetooth but with their own dongle it doesn't just switch the dpad to stick it also changes all the other face buttons to weird positions, assigns left and right triggers to right bumper and right trigger as well as having connection problems etc. Why it doesn't work so well with their own devices is mind boggling but if this is patched out in future i will rebuy some.

I also have a Pro 2 controller made by 8BitDo and whilst it does behave better when connected to the dongle than the M30, it wasn't without issues. After controller had been turned off for a while i would find i need to resync it, using two dongles and my M30 & pro 2 assigned both to player 1 (i sorted this but the issue comes back whenever it feels like it).

Once these issues are fixed i shall rebuy as i do not like using bluetooth personally and would prefer all my controllers synced up each to their own dongle. As they are it is just a frustrating mess to use with some of their own controllers so i returned the dongles.

I love 8BitDo and will be buying all my future controllers from them which is why i was so surprised these are in such a state. It is only on version 1.0 firmware still which is probably why it has issues but i don't recommend buying one until they update the firmware to fix it for 8BitDo controllers, if you only want to connect an official Xbox or Playstation controller to it though then you can't go wrong with one of these great priced dongles.

Questionable product

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 5 oktober 2022

I bought this because it claims to be compatible with most controllers on the market. I was instantly concerned when it was delivered and I saw that on the box they have spelled the name of the PS5 controller ( dualsense) wrong,also despite the word controller being on the box multiple times it is also misspelt in one place and the lid doesn't even fit on the end of the stick, which isn't a big deal but it is either shoddy quality control on a very simple item or it is a sign that it is a cheap knock off

At first it seemed fine though, plug in, hit the button to pair with another device, simple enough. But instantly the problems started, my pc is beside my desk, less than a foot away from where I sit,but even so every device I have connected to this adapter so far constantly disconnects and that is not an exaggeration, they are dropping the connection every 2-5 seconds.

This is my first experience with 8bitdo, I don't know if I received a dud or a knock off or something but regardless the only review I can leave has to be negative and advising anyone to avoid this.

More compatibilities

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 3 april 2022

It works with a variety of controllers including a Wii classic controller that is connected to the Wiimote. The latency is good.
Here few drawbacks. It doesn't connect to multiple controllers. So one controller at a time needs to be synced.
And have no USB port at the back, to connect ps3 controller you need a pc and software to make them sync. After connecting to another controller it loses its previous sync so the whole process needs to repeat every time.
