GENKI x 8BitDo PocketPro Portable Wireless Game Controller with Hall Effect Joysticks Rumble, Gyro, USB-C Cable Gamepad for Portable Consoles, Switch, Windows, Mac OS, Android, Steam Deck

I'm not personally used to where the analog sticks are on the controller (I'm not a PS player), so I find them uncomfortable to use overall, but the controller itself is well made. It's sleek, slim, and portable making it easy to slot into space on a desk. I've had absolutely no issues with connectivity through bluetooth either, meaning I can just pick it up off the desk, turn it on, and game. I wouldn't recommend the controller for heavy modern games unless you like the placement of the analog sticks over the Xbox placement, but I would recommend the controller for retro gaming or indie titles.

I've been using this for a few weeks as I usually get through the "honeymoon" phase before I write a review on something, especially a tech product. I honestly feel this isn't exclusive to just retro gamers, anyone who needs a Bluetooth controller can benefit from purchasing one of these. I don't want to give them any bright ideas but this honestly feels like they could charge a lot more for this controller given it's compatibility and build construction, I've had 0 issues so far. After buying cheaper controllers from other sketchy manufacturers I can confidently say 8Bitdo offers some quality hardware for the price point.

One of 8bitDo's best designs to-date, with Hall Effects sticks, combined with the colorless clear shell that so many of us have wanted for years; what's not to love about this controller? The button colors did/do kind of confuse me, as my mind kept subconsciously trying to affiliate them with some pattern from a known 1st party controller. But, as far as I know, they simply don't match a known pattern; none that I've found, anyway.Not a big deal at all though, as one can easily open the shell and rearrange the buttons in whatever pattern they like (the PS pattern is easy to achieve with the button colors it comes with). Or one could grab a new set of C-Buttons from 8bitDo's website (/collections/repair-parts), if they really wanted some with double-shot symbols. They are priced extremely reasonably! And while you're there, I would consider throwing a GB-themed D-Pad in your cart too; as its feel is superior to the SNES-themed D-Pad, imo.You have to be a little more careful with transparent hard-plastics than you do with opaques, because they are a little more brittle. Something to do with how they achieve transparency.. Especially when the ambient temp is colder.And I can't confirm this yet but, I would not be surprised to find that one could tint this clear shell with their own color, by applying RIT dye (the type meant for synthetic materials) to the inside of the shell and setting it with low-heat from a hair-dryer, then rinsing away the excess. Of course tinted transparent paint, applied to the inside of the shell, would probably work too, with less risk.Anyway, this controller is pure, unadulterated 'win', imo! If you like the transparent look, I highly recommend picking up a pair of these (one as a backup, just in case it turns out to be limited-time only).

This control is PERFECT!!! I bought it so i could play Fornite on my mobile devices (Samsung Fold 3 & Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra). It handles beautifully. The controller & buttons are very responsive and i have not experienced any lag whatsoever. The contoller fits perfect in the hand and is not bulky in anyway. I bought a CKRD Neo controller after this one to keep at work so i can play during lunch (and because i always wanted one), but i wish i wouldve rather just bought a second Genki 8Bitdo. I think i still will and keep the CKRD as a back up for my Switch.The Genki x 8Bitdo Pocketpro is so sleek and the joysticks are nice and tight and not as wobbly feeling as the CKRD. Its probably just gaming preference because with these 1st person shooter type games you want you joysticks responsive as possible to move and look quickly. I feel with the CKRD controller you have to move the joystick more to get the same type of action. Im not bashing the CKRD Neo controller, i just prefer this one. The CKRD is far more bulkier. If youre at a cross between the 2 like i once was for mobil gaming, stick with this one, the Genki x 8Bitdo Pocketpro is the way to go!

Love it! Excellent quality! Universal and works with Steam and PS. Buy it!

ol' reliable 8bitdo sn30 pro, rebranded (which is a good thing, it's one of the best travel/pocket-sized controllers on the market as of this review). love the faceless buttons (less confusion when switching between different inputs).at first, ran into some quality control issues (unresponsive left d-pad on first order, right stick mechanism shifting underneath stick on second order), but after contacting genki through their official website, managed to get things sorted out and received one that works properly now.

This restored my faith in 8bitdo controllers, as I've had issues with the last half-dozen I've here on Amazon. This honestly reminds me of the original SN30 pro controller, the Super Nes version. Which is a really good thing, as it's super comfortable to hold. The D-Pad is spot on to, and the shoulder buttons are great. Especially I think for racing games, or anything else for that matter. Genki did a great job with this controller, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who owns a Nintendo Switch.

Excellent travel game controller. Looks great and after the Firmware update from the 8BitDo website the controller was absolutely perfect for my needs. Small. compact, great connection with no lag using Bluetooth to my Z Fold 6 playing Xbox Cloud Gaming!
