Super comfortable grip! Great spacing of the buttons for girls with longer nails. Fits perfectly on the console for tv hook up.

A lot of people have gripes about this Joy-Con which I would consider unnecessary and quite ignorant if I'm being honest. There are complaints regarding the inability to use it wirelessly and how you can only use it in handheld mode. Fruitless issues considering: A) They couldn't have made it more clear that the controller isn't wireless. It's 20 bucks for crying out loud! B) Its limit to portability is something I would consider a good thing. Hear me out. The left Joy-Con by default substitutes the d-pad with buttons. Why? So that each Joy-Con, no matter whether it's left or right, can be played single-handedly. If you were to take this Joy-Con and play with it by itself, the d-pad *can't* register as good buttons to ANYONE. That would be just silly. Anyway, if you need to use a d-pad while your Switch is in docked mode, you can simply invest in either a Pro Controller, Third-Party Controller, or SN30 Pro Controller. This is, by all means, a handheld Joy-Con and it serves its purpose tremendously. It gets extra points by default for being able to fit into my Satisfye grip. I bought it to play Mega Man 11, and with zero input delay accompanied by the fact that this d-pad is very comfortable, makes my gameplay experience so much better. It's a soft d-pad that presses quite comfortably if I do say so myself. My only slightest gripe which isn't even really an issue at all is that if you're playing a 3D game, the edges of the analog stick are ridged, and it's somewhat noticeable if you give it the intention. Once you get used to it though, it's perfectly fine. The minus and capture buttons are also mushy as opposed to a tactile press, which is surprising when you first use them, and it takes some getting used to, but like the analog stick aforementioned, they're not that hard to break in. I fully recommend this product for all lovers of platformers. The ONLY reason I'm taking one star away is that my shoulder buttons both got stuck for no apparent reason. I'm assuming something went defunct with the Joy-Con and would appreciate it if HORI could get back to me as to why this happened. (and whether or not something can be done about it)

I LOVE it! The look and feel of it in your hands is a lot more comfortable than joycons! If you find the joycons to be too small for your hands, these are definitely the solution to that problem. They simply just work so well.
