The new 8BitDo Ultimate Wireless Controller (2.4GHz edition) is $20 cheaper than their Bluetooth version, and in my opinion this is the one to get. In this video I'll go over all its features and explain why this has become my favorite controller to pair with a docked Steam Deck.

UPDATE: This controller initially had some compatibility issues with certain Steam Deck games, but the latest preview build of SteamOS has fixed it: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2022/12/steamos-34-preview-adds-support-for-8bitdo-ultimate-wireless-controller-dongle/
