8Bitdo N30 Pro2 Bluetooth Gamepad

2

N30 Pro was created to be the ultimate, powerful, portable controller. And this is N30 Pro 2.

N30 Pro 2 refines every element of its predecessor with features like motion controls, vibration, USB-C and turbo functionality. Still inspired by the powerful weapon in Konami's 2D masterpiece, Castlevania: Symphony of the night. It is built with clickable joysticks and features a full-sized controller button set so you can play any game, anywhere.

4

The Pro controllers aren't just full-sized wireless bluetooth game controllers - they were designed with respect for the classics. We paid extra attention to the most critical characteristics like the D-PAD, to make sure it feels exactly like you remember it. 8BitDo controllers are designed to be as versatile as possible with each of your modern devices. Easily pair your controller as an X-input or D-input device via bluetooth. And you can even use it as a wired USB controller with the included USB cable.

Turn your Pro controller into a dedicated mobile game system.*

Customers like the quality of the video game controller. They mention that the build quality feels very sturdy, the buttons are clicky, and the bluetooth is on with no issues. It's very usable, and does a great job. It is really good for phones, and everything just works. The D pad is amazing, and sticks are tight and precise. It’s perfect for their needs.

THE BEST!! i guess i'm one of the weird ones..?
5 Stars
THE BEST!! i guess i'm one of the weird ones..?
disclaimer: haven’t used my switch pro controller that much. only used joy-cons cause, again, weird sorry.the N30 Pro2 is THE most comfortable controller for me by far. i have tiny hands - maybe smaller than the average girl's - and i get fatigued quickly using an Xbox One controller.for example, playing nonstop to defeat only up to the skeleton king on diablo3 with the XB1 controller make my hands hurt BAD (i go to every nook and cranny of any map if that makes a diff), and i get claws for hands for the next half an hour or so.with this controller though, no fatigue whatsover. why? because everything is closer together!! my fingers are resting at a very natural angle without the typical handles that most controllers have. and with the top buttons' horizontal alignment, only my index fingers are doing all the work, while my middle finger rests with the others. it's such an easy and fluid motion when i use those bony protruberances between the index's distal and middle phalanxes/phalanges for the R1/L1 and the tip of the index fingers to press R2/L2.also, i LOVE the placement of the -/+... very easy to reach. the capture button and the home button took only a bit of adapting to them. the analog sticks both being at the bottom isn't a problem as well as they're similar to a dualshock controller placement. the indicator lights on the sides are convenient as well (and pretty ha). corresponding meaning to each LED color can be found on the instruction sheet.as you may have noticed, i mainly bought this for my Nintendo Switch, and i haven’t tried conecting the N30 Pro2 to any other device. (if i ever do, maybe i’ll do an updated review).connecting to the switch though is much easier for me compared with connecting the 8bitdo’s SN30 Pro, though the latter is also easy to pair.with the N30 Pro2, i like the fact that after the initial pairing is done, even if i put my switch to sleep, i can wake up the device... (by pressing the power/sleep button of the console directly while docked. sorry guys, you gotta get up. the N30 Pro2 cannot wake the switch) ...but a quick press of the start button on the N30, and it’s automatically remembered and paired as my main controller.i don’t have much to say about the d-pad as i haven’t used it much for any side-scrolling platformers, but i like it’s placement even for diablo3 or nine parchments...or rather, its doesn't bother me that the analog sticks are placed where they are - as i've mentioned.BATT LIFE and MOTION CONTROLi cannot give a review of the batt life as i immediately used the controller straight from the box without checking if it’s fully charged. also cannot review on the motion controls, sorry.CONS...for me?1- just the weaker rumble. i like a stronger haptic feedback.2- i got the N30 Pro2 N edition (which is beautiful, sure), but my heart’s set on the coming G edition... (8bitdo, it's still coming, RIGHT?!)would i recommend this to anyone else? definitely!! ...maybe?maybe if you have tiny hands like mine, or if you think you can benefit from this format. for me, it really is the best controller, and i only wish i can also use it for my xbox one or even ps4. pricing is reasonable and not that steep, so i'd recommend that you try the N30 Pro2!!(sorry i compared with my xbox one controller the most. only because i just played diablo3 on both and the difference in comfort was apparent. plus, my playing that game is pretty constant ha no matter the platform and comparing was easy enough)
