It's similar to a PS1/2 controller I used back then and comfortable in holding, especially with the thumbsticks being on the same alignment position than compared to the Switch controls.
The only slight annoyance when using it for Steam is it reads the right symbols as Xbox while the buttons are placed for Switch, which causes slight confusion for some games I have that use the positions of the buttons on a UI instead of only symbols alone. Even then have to mentally adjust of what A/B and X/Y are depending on the game and mapping. Not much 8Bitdo can do about that. I wasn't aware of how Steam would read the controller either, and wasn't familiar with Xbox either as I never played one.
While setting up a profile can help with this issue by remapping A/B and X/Y, I find myself switching between "Xbox" and "Switch" mode between games a bit consistently depending on convivence. Setting up dead zones for triggers and thumbsticks with the software doesn't apply to default, only profiles.
Overall still a good purchase for someone new to pro controllers, isn't overwhelming to get acquainted with the pads on the back. Very glad they sold wired controllers as I'm very wary of most wireless/blue tooth devices that need a consistent and stable connection.
