I like it! EXCELLENT quality - good features!

This is cool stuff. It has a sensor, so if you move it, a light will flash for a second so you can see in the dark. Very convenient. I didn't know that would happen. It's worth noting that currently (September 17, 2021) Xbox x and s series are experiencing volume control issues. This is a known issue and NOT an issue with this remote. 8bitdo always has amazing quality and this product is no different. The buttons are tactile and responsive, and the entire structure is made of very durable…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Exchange availability

An absolute must if you use Xbox One for media streaming!

We own several Xbox Ones and use them almost exclusively for media streaming, primarily via Plex and the Revain Prime Video app. We went through two Microsoft OEM remotes and two first generation PDP remotes and all but one of the Microsoft remotes failed completely. I believe in this remote control. I don't generally like Chinese products, but the guys at 8BitDo know what they're doing when it comes to making quality goods. I have one of their NES Bluetooth controllers and am happy with it, so

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • Damaged
