Does the controller work by itself? Like as if you had one or two joy-cons separate from the tablet.

I was wondering if you could connect the two halves together and use as a single handheld wireless controller for tabletop or desktop mode. null

No, these only work connected to the switch, these dont have individual batteries like joycons.

No, unfortunately they do not function put together like a standard controller. They do not charge either, they run off of your Switch battery, and they are ultra comfortable and responsive.
