I know there's a lot of hype about the 3 but I have the original pro 2 without hall effect and it's going strong 4 years later

I was talking about the box.
Because people don't put boxes in their backpacks and luggage
It's a very sturdy box though. More akin to a case. I'm not talking about the flimsy ones that come with a PS5 controller or Xbox. Even comes with a plastic controller Stick and button Guard.

But I digress. This is still a pretty good deal for a solid controller, but on it's own the case doesn't really seem worth it to me.
I know people like to bike-shed deals with triviality, but "actually the included cardboard box is a case!" has to be a new low.

You can look at it yourself, and make your own decision.

I just want to know if this works in Teslas, using Bluetooth classic. Because the last 8bitdo controller I bought doesn't.

Does anybody know differences between Pro 2, Pro 3, Ultimate 2, Ultimate 3?

There's so many choices & they're all almost the same. And they have no chart!!

Pro 2 and 3 is closer to Dualshock format while Ultimate is Xbox. They do have charts on the product pages though. Scroll down.

Does this actually support the Switch? Whats the difference between their controllers that say PC/mobile and others that specially say Switch?
It does, it supports Switch, Switch 2, PC, Mobile... I had to do a firmware update on mine when the Switch 2 came out to make it compatible but aside from that it's the most compatible controller i've owned

Great deal with a case for those that don't care about magnetic/ swappable (read losable) buttons on the 3.
I wouldn't care if the Pro 3 had those or not, I'd still want it over the Pro 2 for the dpad alone.
