Fun controller!
Great product, looks great and connects easily to the switch. Lights are a fun touch and it feels great to hold. No lag or delay that I've noticed thus far (after a few months of gaming with it).

Improved controllers
One of the better controllers that I've purchased. The battery life is good, but of course that varies with what you're playing. I like the ambient lights that a nice touch. Also, its has good hand grip comfort. I'll probably purchase another later this year to replace an older controller.

Stick drift after 2 weeks. Replacement good so far
Love the way these look and feel. We got one in black and one in white. Unfortunately after only 2 weeks of use the black controller had stick drift. We returned it immediately and Best Buy gave us a replacement and so far no issues. But they need to start improving the quality of these controllers. Best Buy customer service is great.
