    Great set feel awesome in my bigger hands they can’t used separate from the switch but definitely make handheld mode a more comfortable experience and sport my favorite Pokémon which is a massive plus

    These work like a charm and are super comfy for my hands, as well the D-pad is a lifesaver for certain games. Have had them for some time and they still work wonderfully.

    Great controllers that I never use. Feels good in the hands, buttons feel squishy but work. If you play your switch in handheld mode for long periods and find you hands cramping using the small joycons this is great.

    It feels great and doesn't prohibit the Switch from docking at all. The feel and response of the buttons is excellent. Only downside is you can't use them withouth being attached to the unit. But that's not so bad.

    Great Extra Set for Portable Mode

    Great set of extra controls for portable play. Feels cheap because of the light weight but this it probably due to the lack of batteries. Overall the the controllers are very comfortable because of the extra thickness of the grip area and slightly shifted button/joystick layout.

    These are the most comfortable split pads for the Nintendo switch. If you are a gamer on the go, these are perfect for you!! I have arthritis and when I play with these, it’s like my hands never get tired

    Great replacement controllers for the joy cons. These are so much more comfortable than the joy cons. What they lose in wireless capability they more than make up for in comfort and durability.

    Great product and very durable. If you want to slam these controllers around, it handles the beating and still works! Would suggest to anyone.

    Great addition to switch! Better than the joycons even though they lack motion control or rumble. My sons love them too and the controls are better feeling.

    The Joycons are nice but they’re too small, let’s face it. Get these and enjoy longer play sessions without your hands cramping up. Got these and haven’t looked back.

    Is a ver light material, feel low quality, but once you start playing is just different! Comfort since the joycons are bigger, if you have big hands and like to play on the go! This is a must!

    Ive been wanting new joycons so i dont ruin the original ones that will eventually cause stick drift. These are smooth and the buttons feel nice. Also the color is so clean!!

    These are amazing controllers! I love them in hand but the only thing I don’t like is I can’t use them if they aren’t on the switch screen.

    works as expected. The controllers are a larger size than the joy cons and comfortable to hold. Does not have Amiibo support and will not fit in a case but still worth of the price

    Great for those with bigger hands. Had hori split pad pro but decided to get the gengar compacts. Love the design and feel in the hands. Great for handheld mode.
