Best arcade stick for the Xbox Series S/X
By Mike on Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2023
I sold my Mayflash F500 to give this a try, and I have zero regrets. It feels like a significant upgrade despite the similarities in price. Pros: 1. Design - this is a beautiful looking hardware; if you are struggling with white vs. black, I'd say the black is a solid choice. The matte blacks and piano blacks in the glossy finish make it look super premium. 2. Construction - sturdy, heavy and feels like a brick on my desk. 3. Wireless (2.4ghz usb dongle) - having this feature at this price range puts all other Xbox arcade stick out of competition. Low latency, and it just works flawlessly out of box. 4. Buttons - 8bitdo quality buttons; nothing much to say except they feel closer to sanwa buttons. 5. Battery life - the same great battery (1000mah) that came with the switch version; can nearly last me 2-3 weeks of casual use. 6. Compatibility - 8bitdo is understating the compatibility of this arcade stick. I've tested this fully working on Android phones/tablets (either plugged via provided usb cable, or wirelessly by attaching a usb c to usb a to phone and plugging usb dongle). Likely will work with Steam deck and linux based machines as well just like the switch version. Cons: 1. Bluetooth - doesn't support it. Shame. 2. Software - very minimal with ability to alter face buttons; no macro or advanced features like turbo. Hopefully, this improves with future updates. The arcade sticks market for Xbox has always been a niche reserved by mediocre devices charged at ultra high prices. 8bitdo is about to completely change this, and so far I'm loving what this arcade stick has to offer. Though, if you don't plan on using it for Xbox, it's pretty clear that the 8bitdo "switch" version is a better deal with bluetooth and established software support unless you specifically want an all white or black verison.

Does not work with Android/Nvidia Shield and broken
By Jared Denman on Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2023
I have a piece up top that is broken around the joystick. It constantly moves around when using the joystick. Also, I bought this anticipating it would work with android. More specifically my Nvidia shield to use with my old ROM’s via an emulator, but it doesn’t work. It works just fine on my windows 11 computer though.
