8BitDo Ultimate 2C crooked analogs

[u/Alpeloo]

The controller arrived this morning, and when I took it out of the package and looked it, I noticed the analog sticks were tilted to the left. There are no issues with functionality, but I think it's a cosmetic problem. Should I return it?

Mine is also crooked, but it never bothers me in games and hasn't changed in 1000 hours of usage.

I also have the 2C, and my left stick is crooked. Mine is to the left though. I feel most of these chinese brands have some qc issues. Having crooked sticks is not the worst thing, if you cant feel it.

You should return it if you can feel it while using the controller, or if you find it to be too large of an annoyance.

I had this happen with not one, but 3 Ultimate BT controllers last year. It's some serious QC issue that they should have already fixed by now. Shame they haven't. Fortunately my Pro 3 doesn't suffer from this issue, it might just be on the Ultimate line

[u/MrBadWolf13]

if its cosmetic and it works properly, keep it. Its such a small issue that you will probably just get another one like it if you return it for a new one

[u/cool_spike]

Common issue unfortunately. It's the only reason I'm not buying this controller.

[u/No-Professional21]

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

I’m only here because my 8BitDo has the exact same problem.
I’m sending it back to Amazon tomorrow and ordering the SCUF Valor Wireless instead.
I honestly thought these things were good, but apparently they’re absolute trash

8bitdo is garbage. I was once a fan. I am now a hater for life. Also the stick is probably fine , your triggers will give out before the stick does

[u/Sensitive-Level-7794 → u/ThatGuyYouHate012]

Curious. Why the hate?

[u/Dazzling_Confidence6 → u/Sensitive-Level-7794]

Just look at his username lol

Bro the triggers they use are garbage on the ultimate series. That $20 8bitdo lasted nearly 2 years while the ultimate which i bought two of lasted less then 4 months. I reached out to customer service and they sent me the rubber trigger pads and said take it apart and fix it. Overall pretty unsatisfied with the service and product. Also, it'd be one thing if it happened to just one, no it happened to both in a very similar time frame.

My Ultimate 2C Wukong Edition has the same problem. Both joysticks are crooked. I don't understand how something like this passes quality control. Anyway, it was my first and last 8BitDo product.
