Deal | 8Bitdo’s Jade Green Ultimate Xbox controller with Hall Effect joysticks gets 29% price cut on Amazon

Earlier this year, 8Bitdo launched the Ultimate Xbox wireless gaming controller in a jade green finish. Now, the 8Bitdo Amazon storefront has reduced the controller’s price by 29%, meaning you can purchase the Ultimate Jade Green for just $49.99 rather than its original list price of $70. Keep in mind that this is a highly time-sensitive deal, so grab this opportunity before retailers change their minds. 

New owners of the controller will be pleased to know that the current offer marks one of the lowest prices for the controller so far this year, according to the Amazon price tracking website Camelcamelcamel. If you are not a fan of the green colorway, you can also opt for white and black color options as well. However, there are no significant discounts available on them right now. 

The discounted gamepad features a translucent jade green shell inspired by the iconic transparent green edition of the original Xbox console. The striking transparent case design reveals most of the internal components of the controller, which looks quite futuristic. Plus, there’s also an illuminated Xbox logo at the top that lights up while gaming. 

Besides a translucent jade green aesthetic, the Ultimate controller also features Hall Effect joysticks, Hall Effect impulse triggers, 2 Pro back paddle buttons, a refined D-pad and bumpers, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Like other 8Bitdo wireless controllers, the Ultimate is also customizable. Gamers can remap buttons, create custom profiles, and adjust the range of triggers and joysticks via 8Bitdo Ultimate software. 

Unlike other expensive controllers, such as the Scuf Envision Pro, the Ultimate Wireless Controller is compatible with everything from Xbox Series X/S/One and Windows 10/11 to Apple and Android devices. Additionally, it supports tri-mode connectivity, including Bluetooth 5.0, USB-C wired, and wireless 2.4G. The battery life of the controller is decent. To be more exact, gamers can expect up to 22 hours of playtime through its 1,000 mAh battery. 

All in all, at $49.99, the 8Bitdo Ultimate Jade Green Xbox controller seems like a pretty good option for those who want an affordable transparent controller with Hall Effect joysticks and decent battery life. For more details, refer to the review video attached below.
