2 months in and RT is bashing against the RB. Crap
Unfortunately the triggers quality in the ultimate 2 is bad, really bad. Also the R4 started feeling very mushy.

8Bitdo Ultimate 2.4G controller design flaw!
The trigger buttons on the 8BitDo Ultimate 2.4G Wireless Controller have a major design flaw that is being actively ignored by 8BitDo, as evidenced by their response to a warranty claim.
The LT (Left Trigger) and RT (Right Trigger) buttons are designed in a way that cuts the internal rubber gromme

Came here to see if the Ultimate 2 was worth it.
Came to see if this was worth it and the first post I see here is this exact controller having a flaw innits hair trigger design followed by another posts also saying there's a flaw in the design.
Is this controller worth it? $50CAD seems like a good deal but if they're not overly good, should I

8Bitdo Ultimate 2 - Hair Trigger Flaw
So I’ve actually gone through two 8BitDo Ultimate 2 controllers already. The first one had a faulty L3, which I didn’t even notice at first since I wasn’t using it much. Once I realized, I sent it back and got a replacement.
Here’s the thing though: on both units, I ran into the same weird issue wi

My initial thoughts and comparison between 8bitdo Ultimate 2 and Cyclone 2
I’m(was) a 8BitDo fan. I got the Ultimate 3-Mode last year, and it’s honestly one of the best controllers I’ve owned — great build quality, great feel. I also picked up the Ultimate 2C Wukong special edition — mostly because of the design — but it turned out to be an amazing value for the price.

8BitDo Ultimate 2 Controller broken trigger
I was playing a game and using the right short trigger and suddenly the trigger went pop. Causing me unable to trigger the micro switch.
Upon checking the trigger, turns out the inner side of the trigger hinge is broken where it no longer sits in the same place and moves around. This causes the pla

Ultimate 2 - This happened last night
Long story short(kind of), played last night, suddenly heard noise, checked controller. The noise came from the right trigger hitting the bumper. It obviously shouldn't be this close like how the left side is spaced out a little. The noise IS tolerable and if I wear my headphones it's not that notic

Leaked images of Xbox Elite 3 controller
Does £100+ really get you anything better on a controller. My 8bitdo ultimate 2 was £40. Comes with 4 programmable buttons, hall effect joysticks. Microswitches and quick triggers. What could they possibly do for more then double that?

Ultimate 2.4G, Not even 6 months old
It's a common issue for all 8bitdo non-Hall effect triggers. The plastic piece under the trigger cuts into the rubber membrane over time. I made a lengthy post in this subreddit awhile back that delays the problem but my diy prevention eventually failed. 8bitdo won't repair or replace it unless you
