Way above my expectations.
With the controller being so small, I thought it would be difficult getting used to the size of it. It immediately felt comfortable and just right. It does have rumble, just not HD rumble, which is OK for me. It feels real sturdy, while at the same time being lightweight. Has a 1 to 2 hour charge time. The charge usually last about 20+ hours of gameplay. 8bitdo Does really make high-quality game controllers. It was a good price, for quality of controller. I recommend it.

Very small and portable controller, perhaps a bit too small
I got this controller to bring with me on the go to play my mobile games on my phone, Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra. This connects perfectly to my phone and responds with no trouble at all. Plays the games i have on my phone perfectly and responds just as well.I bought it for its portability. It fits in my shirt pocket perfectly but it is a bit too small for my huge fat hands lol. I would definitely recommend this for those that need the portability and have small hands.

Great little controller
Works well and paired easily to android once I read the instructions lol. Small enough to carry in pocket or bag. I use it to play games on my phone while wife is watching TV or on break at work. Works great so far.

Cute little controller, best budget wireless Switch controller
Very cute, compact controller. I have the original 8bitdo Lite (with d-pads instead of control sticks) and I have liked it so much that just I had to get the Lite 2. This little guy is great! The Lite 1 was kind of a novelty item for me, but super useful for portablity’s sake. The Lite 2 rivals the pro controller in functionality only really missing HD rumble and Amiibo). I’ve seriously been using the Lite 2 more than my pro controller since I got it. It might just be the best budget wireless switch controller.The pros:- The gyro/tilt controls work really well.- The control sticks are well calibrated- It’s quite comfortable for it’s size (I have large hands, and somehow the lite 2 feels more comfortable than playing the switch in handheld mode)- Portable- Good lookingThe only con:- The rumble/vibration is pretty weak. I don’t particularly care, just something to note.All in all, this is probably the best bang for your buck if you want to have a fully featured “little sibling controller.” Way better than a half joycon, and almost as good as the official pro controller.*I had to return the first one I recieved. The first one’s abxy buttons didn’t register many of my button presses. The replacement works flawlessly. Also, I didn’t test it on android, just the Nintendo Switch.

Great controller for smaller hands.
I have fairly small hands, so using some of the larger controllers can be difficult for me. The 8Bitdo Lite 2 is the perfect size for my baby hands. It has great battery life and power retention; I left it off for a month, came back to play some SNES games with it, and it still had plenty of power left. The buttons are soft but not mushy, and the control sticks are small but work effectively.

Fantastic switch controller for the price.
This is a lovely little Nintendo Switch controller. Fits in my pocket, and even has full gyro controls (important for some games like Splatoon) as well as rumble support. It won’t wake the switch (unfortunately), but it connects just fine to the Switch when it’s awake. This is by design (controller’s manual mentions it won’t wake the switch), but it’s a shame because some of 8bitdo’s other controllers can (such as the Ultimate). If your main motivation for purchasing this is to have another Switch controller it can’t be beat for the price.For PC and Android, it’s still a fairly good controller, but there are some caveats I describe below.I prefer to use the controller in Switch-mode on my PC rather than the Direct-Input mode as the rumble and motion control feature is only available in Switch mode. Direct-Input mode does have a turbo button feature (holding a button and pressing the “star” button toggles it for the held button), but frankly I prefer having gyro controls and rumble.PC use is a bit tricky, as the controller doesn’t have any X-Input support, but there’s lots of ways around that. Steam natively supports Switch Pro Controllers, so all Steam games can work with it if you pair it in Switch-mode. If you want to use it for a non-Steam game, there’s an open-source program you can download called “GloSI” that can provide Steam Input to non-Steam games.One quirk I ran into is when pairing with my PC for the first time: I had to turn off the controller after pairing and turn it back on before it completely worked. Seems to be the case every time I re-pair, so that’s a slight bummer, but an easy work-around.For Android it’s more of a mixed bag. Switch-mode did pair with my phone but didn’t work very well. So Direct-Input is definitely preferred with Android. However, in Direct-Input mode, default Android button assignments are technically “correct” but not how they should be (in my opinion); pushing A is “technically” the A button, so it’s labelled correctly. The problem, however, is most people prefer button assignments to be XBox based. For example, an XBox controller has its A button where the switch has its B button. When using other controllers on Android, such as the DS4 or DualSense, the button assignments match an XBox controller layout. So, for this controller, what I feel should be the default, is B=A, A=B, Y=X and X=Y. Yes, that would mean the labels don’t match, but the “position” of all the buttons would match an XBox layout, which is what everybody is used to.However, with the 8bitdo Light 2, the A-B and X-Y buttons are swapped from their XBox positions on Android with Direct-Input. For a lot of games this isn’t too big a deal as you can change controls in their settings, but there are games where this isn’t supported. For instance, in Netflix’s release of the mobile GTA games, they only permit limited pre-set layout arrangements, and none of them solve the A-B, X-Y swapping.It’s apparently possible to fix this if you have a rooted Android phone, but sadly that’s not an option for me (and countless others as well).I still love this controller, even for Android. The price is hard to beat, and it does indeed work on Switch, PC, and Android. I would give it 5 stars if the Android button swapping issue and Switch wake-up were fixed.

Great for ipas pro m4. Little controller to pack around in your bag that doesn’t take up a lot of space. Works great and easy to use.
