    This is probably due to Bluetooth Low Energy tech that is being implemented on the controller. pressing home or other buttons makes sure that the controller is fully awake and by lifting/moving or shaking it up will wake up the switch

    @gregmasciola3332 I recently purchased the Bluetooth version, and I gotta say that I'm loving it. I'd say that it's notably superior to any other 8bitdo Switch control pad. It's a really nice controller, and most importantly, it wakes up the Switch from sleep mode. The only other third party Switch controller that does that is the Gulikit KingKong Pro 2 (which I also own).

    First of all, thanks for the great reviews. Keep up the good work! I'd like to purchase one of the pads you reviewed(Flydigi Vader 2, 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth, Gamesir X2 pro) on the channel. I play games on PC and Android tablet. On tablet(Galaxy tab S7 FE), I want to utilize mapping for games that support pads, such as Genshin Impact and Honkai, as well as games that do not. On PC, it would be nice to be able to play Apex Legends (PC), the Diablo series, and some Steam games, but I'm so used to the keyboard and mouse that it's not necessary. In summary, which pad would you recommend if your main purpose is to have a reliable connection and mapping on Android? Thank you, have a lovely day. :)

    The naming of these controllers is terrible in my opinion. First, there is no "Ultimate" version of the Ultimate controller, every version has it's pros and cons. And all of them have worse overall compatibility compared to the Pro 2. Additionally what most people think when they hear the names Ultimate Bluetooth Controller and Ultimate 2.4Ghz Wireless Controller is that "This one is Bluetooth" and "This one is 2.4Ghz", but that is only scratching the surface of the differences between the two. Plus the Bluetooth version is both Bluetooth and 2.4ghz. They should have named them "Ultimate S Wireless" and "Ultimate Wireless" or something like that instead. What makes things even more unclear is there are also 2 wired versions of the controller. There is the Ultimate Wired Controller and Ultimate Wired Controller for Xbox. The Xbox one seems to only work on Windows and Xbox, when I tried it on Steam Deck and mobile months ago it didn't work at all. The Ultimate Wired (non-Xbox) lands somewhere between the two Wireless options. It supports X-Input, D-Input, and Switch, but it is missing features like Gyro and the hall-effect sticks which the Bluetooth model has.

    I REALLY wish I had watched this video before buying. I got the 2.4G because I really wanted the pastel pink color, but as you noted in your color comparison, THE TONE IS EXTREMELY SUBTLE, it looks almost white next to colored objects. The color on the box and on their website are rich and bold in comparison. I was SO disappointed when I unboxed and saw the color, it is honestly such an ugly tone and it looks like the color has been sun bleached out. I don't understand who approved this tone for production, what is the point of making a pink controller that makes you question of you are even looking at the color pink? What a waste... Anyway, that's my rant about the color. Aesthetics aside, it's a great controller and for PC use, you really can't go wrong with the 2.4 since the adapter works from its place inside the dock, it doesn't take up any extra USB ports and feels like an adapter-free experience. Just don't get conned by the deceptively pretty pink, or you'll be a sad panda like me.
