    Pricey but still recommended

    I'm a fan. The split pads make the switch sooooo much more playable in handheld mode. Sure, it loses out on all the fixins (NFC, rumble, etc) but I'm not super invested in those anyway. I'm more interested in ergonomics and the d-pad, which are both much better than with joycons. The adapter cord is a nice add-on with a pretty long cord so I can use it in the dock, too. The biggest knock against it is the cost. For this price you could get a pro-controller and one of those adapters that connect the switch to your pro controller. So, I recommend it because it works well, but it's debatable if it's worth it at this price.

    Love playing the Switch as a handheld, only problem is the size of the joycons. They’re a little thin for handles and sometimes I would find myself having trouble using all the buttons. This controller perfectly fixed my issues with the joycons. It feels like a regular controller on my Switch!

    The grip is very comfortable to hold. Buttons and triggers on this controller was great as well. Only downside is packing them when bringing your switch elsewhere. I like them to the point i always want to be using them but transporting them is a little annoying but worth it.

    Its amazing! Its great to be able to have seperate controllers for bigger hands or better comfort but with the addition of also being an individual controller. I personally looked for wireless controllers, hence why i returned it, but if you dont mind wired then go for it!

    Game changer

    This is a game changer for handheld play. I have big hands which makes playing the switch with joycons (which are already small for adults) awkward and painful. The Hori duals give you that controller size grip, and has 2 programmable triggers that are epic.

    My boys love this controller, it is fast, responsive, and reliable. We had no problems with this unit. My only complaint is that is not wireless for the price.

    Like the fact it has duel purpose. It is more durable feeling and more comfortable than the joy cons in handheld mode. Little bit big, no case options, but also makes normal controller that is a little bulky but nice to have a full controller

    These controllers are much more comfortable than the nintendo ones. Buttons all feel nice and seem durable. The only thing I wish was different would be to make the controllers Bluetooth.

    If you have big hands the switch isn't really fun to play even with some of the handles you can buy. This controller set though is perfect and has made it much more enjoyable to play the switch

    This controller is acceptable. That's about the strongest thing I feel toward it. There isn't anything special about it that puts it above any other aftermarket Joycon. That said, it doesn't necessarily fail anywhere either. Not being able to use it wirelessly is a drawback, but its size and shape more than make up for it. The lack of an nfc receiver was a non-issue for me personally. Buy it if Joycons are uncomfortable in handheld, and if you have the extra money.

    Definitely a must for people who like playing their switch in portable mode, but worried the joy cons will drift eventually. These are super comfortable and super easy to use and make gaming on the go a lot easier.

    Fits my hands great and I really enjoy the analog sticks! I don’t mind it not having motion controls and makes a great extra controller when attached to the center piece.

    The larger buttons and comfortable grip are amazing. It's a bit heavy in handheld mode, but the responsiveness is nice. The home button doesn't wake up the system
