    I needed to buy new joy-cons after the ones that came with my switch started glitching on me. They are pricey but I have had them for 2 months now and haven't had any issues. I really like the colors too. Happy that my son and I each have our own joy-cons now.

    I go through these things far to often. This is not strictly a quality issue since mine are mostly used by a 6 year old. I have found peanut butter squished in one. I did have one set that showed no sign of abuse but only lasted a few months.

    I originally bought the switch with gray ones, and I really wanted the blue/red ones. I am glad I bought these! The only downfall is that the blue/red is swapped +/- versus the originals that are bundled with a switch.

    Standard Joycon Product. Works great for a year or so like every other controller. Wish they improved product reliability to last longer. I prefer the regular controller because they seem to last longer. However, I need Joycons for certain games.

    Does its job as a replacement purchase.

    If you're like me, and your original joy-cons have deteriorated or suffered damage since your purchase of the Nintendo Switch, then be glad to know that these joy-cons do a fine job as replacements. My only issue would be that Nintendo's joy-cons can be easily damaged if they're not properly handled at all times, but this seems like more of an issue with the console design itself, rather than just the joy-cons.

    These are the typical switch controllers and work just fine. Once in a great while it will lose connection but that may be where my Switch is located.

    I like that these are different colors than the red and blue that came with my system. It's nice to know which player you are because of having 4 different colors. Also it just makes my switch even better because I can switch up the colors whenever.

    It’s so nice having extra controllers. I play my switch through my tv a lot and often forget to charge the joy cons I’m usuing, so by having an extra set I am always fully charged. Not to mention, it makes MARIO party much better with four players!

    These controllers work great. They last along time before you have to charge them again. When I first got them I did have to calibrate them in the system settings because they kept turning off randomly but after the calibration update they havent since.
