The Ultimate 2 controller presents several notable improvements. 8bitdo improved his 2.4GHz wireless technology and gave him the name “8Speed”. When it is synchronized wirelessly through the USB-C dongle included, the Ultimate 2, according to the reports, offers an almost sewing entry recognition with 1ms latency. Ultimate 2 also has a 1,000Hz voting rate when wireless 2.4GHZ or USB-C connections are used. To be clear, the original Ultimate offered a stable and fast wireless connection, but the new model offers a more reliable and perfect connection. It is also the first final controller to use a USB-C dongle instead of USB-A. The switch edition can also synchronize wirelessly with the console through Bluetooth, while the PC edition only has Bluetooth support on Android.
8bitdo replaced the hall -effect sticks found in many of its controllers with TMR sticks. Like Hall effect sticks, TMR technology uses electromagnets to provide a softer sensation with more precise and precise movements. Electromagnetic controls also mitigate the risk of analog drift. Although in general, in general, TMR technology is generally seen as an improvement compared to Hall effect technology. The new analog sticks are accompanied by customizable RGB lighting rings.

8bitdo also added another professional customization function common to the Ultimate 2 locks: trigger. Analog sticks of the hall effect can instantly become linear buttons when firing the switches on the back.
In addition to physical modifications, the controller admits the 8 -bitdo patented application in PC and Android.
