Even if you don’t necessarily need it for gaming, the 8BitDo Micro controller is worth considering. With its Keyboard Mode, you can assign different functions to all 16 inputs. While typing a novel may be challenging with only 16 letters, Keyboard Mode is perfect for using quick keyboard shortcuts for various applications. Additionally, you can use it as a remote camera trigger for capturing selfies and videos. The best part is that Keyboard Mode is compatible not only with Android but also with iOS and Windows. This means you can connect the Micro to a wide range of devices, including the iPad Pro.

Despite its compact size, the 8BitDo Micro has an impressive 10-hour battery life and can fully charge in just 1-2 hours. You can also keep it connected with a USB cable for uninterrupted usage. Weighing less than 25 grams and measuring 72 x 40.7 x 14.1 mm, the Micro is considerably smaller than the standard Joy-Con controller. When you purchase the 8BitDo Micro, it comes with a USB cable, instruction manual, and wrist strap. The wrist strap comes in handy because this tiny controller can easily get lost if dropped.
