Nope, this one does not. You would use the USB dongle with this one.

Not true. Android is not only for phones. It might be useless to you, but others can benefit from this feature.

Note that this version of the Ultimate controller does not have the hall effect joysticks, so it is prone to joystick drift. Seems that "Ultimate C" ("C" is for cheaper?) is another variation of the Ultimate controller. While the Ultimate controllers that have hall effect sticks usually explicitly state it in its production description or labeled in the images, 8Bitdo really has to have better naming conventions for their products.

Android means it supports Bluetooth too, right?

So it's false advertising. No one is going to use the dongle with their android phone.

No back paddles is a deal breaker for me. I have a similar wired version with the back paddles, and I love it.

Does this suffer the same drift stick as most xbox controllers? I've been using a razer V4 wired and thats the only controller that counters stick drift but mine is over a year old now and heavily abused but not planning to spend $70 for a replacement.

EDIT: Read amazon reviews and looks like this is also trash ...a lot of reviews mention stick drift happening within 6 months so there ya go. I'll stick to the Razer V2

It doesn't help that the 2C just went up for preorder and now does have Hall Effect joysticks lol https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D73398R9/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&th=1&sdsrc=sta... [amazon.com]

A few more dollars and waiting a couple of weeks makes the 2C far more worth it for the Hall Effect sticks, making this current deal much worse.

I have this controller. I heard a snapping sound using R2, and since then it's felt noticeable less springy than L2. And shaking it I hear something rattling. Only used it for ~30 hours.

Edit: Actually I decided to take 10 minutes to disassemble it and take a look. The moment I opened it the two triggers popped off along with their springs. Couldn't find anything wrong with the controller, put it back together and R2 is somehow fixed. I'm guessing the R2 spring got dislodged during normal use.
