    I had bought the first edition of these pads made by hori and while they were great, they were still a bit bulky! When I saw the reveal for these, I knew I had to get them and they are well worth the money considering the joy con can be a bit uncomfortable for long play sessions.

    Perfect gift at the perfect time for my sister, who loves Pokemon and her switch controllers weren't working. Added the fact that it has turbo functionality, this will speed run her through any game.

    They were fine. Comfortable to hold and all that but they don't have an internal battery (I overlooked that when I read the description, that's in me) and the inputs felt like they lagged just a touch. Ultimately ended up returning for originals

    The grips have a good quality to them despite them being pretty light. Its a shame that they aren't wireless or have all the bells and whistles of an ordinary Joy-Con, but they are so much more comfortable to hold!

    These are awesome. I’m usually wary of third party accessories but they nailed it here. They fit my hands great, I was having trouble using my switch handheld before even with a grip. The turbo option is also great for farming the ace tournament in Pokémon Scarlet.

    Its Gengar. The best Pokémon. I love the feel of Split Pad Compact. Would purchase again and hoard every copy if I had the money. 10 out of 10. Legends Z-A will be a horrible game.

    The controllers are a lot thicker than the regular joy cons which is a good feel. The only downside is that the controllers need to be connected to the switch.

    These are great joycon replacement options, if you mainly play in handheld mode on the Switch. They do not have all the functionality that normal joycons have (HD rumble, wireless play), but they’re great for when you take the system on the go
