    I absolutely love this gaming accessory and when using my switch via handheld I do not play without it. It feels nice and sturdy and makes it more comfortable to game for hours.

    I used about 10 of the most popular switch joycon replacments over the last few weeks and these by far feel the most comfortable.

    Just like the switch one battery dies faster. Controllers are abled to be used as a mouse for certain games.

    Must Have Alternative to Joy Cons

    Very ergonomic controller. Dpad and joysticks are awesome to use. If you have large hands like me this is a must have for extended play times. Joy cons would cause my hands to cramp up after an hour use. Only downside is there is no rumble but can live without it. May be a deal breaker for some but otherwise this controller is awesome!

    Very nice! I bought this after my son’s Joycons broke. Unlike the Joycons which you can pull off the base and use separately, you cannot do that with these. The controllers are mounted to a base so you can slide your switch in and out, but you can’t separate the left and right controllers.

    I wanted a better way to play in handheld mode so I ended up buying this. It was probably one of the best decisions I could have made. The size of the buttons and the control sticks makes it easier to play, and I find it’s more comfortable to hold on to. If you want a good alternative to using joycons than this is the way to go.

    Love this controller, I have used this for hours at a time and I never get fatigued from using them vs the stock controller. Now I prefer to use my switch handheld vs, playing on the TV with my pro controller. Great purchase if you need something comfortable for handheld playing. The shortcut buttons on the back are really useful as well!

    It makes playing the switch much easier for me. The original joycons make it awkward holding it. 10/10 for these pokemon ones.

    Highly recommend. We own 2 sets in our household. More affordable than joycons, more ergonomic than joycons and priced a lot more affordably than joycons. Be advised that these do not have rumble or NFC functionality. If those features are important to you, look elsewhere.

    Much better quality than official Joycons and for a lower price. I'm loving the grip and shape, they feel more natural and balanced than the Joycons, as well. The sticks are sturdier and much less likely to jam/break, and the buttons don't get stuck or stop functioning. This is the type of design that Nintendo SHOULD have gone with.

    Whether it be this or the split pad compact, they are slightly bigger than the official joy-cons, and better despite the lack of electronics, so to be fair deposit it is, it’s big enough and it’s more ergonomic for your hands, the only downside is, there is no NFC there is no rumble, and there is no motion controls what that still does not make it any less worth it, I have used these and previous models of this 3-4 years. No drift.

    Great split controller for Nintendo switch overall. Good overall construction quality. Perfect for handheld mode. If you want all the normal features from a Nintendo product get a pro controller or keep looking for different grips. Pros: grips are powered by console battery power. No need to charge grips. Very comfortable and good control response. Switch still do labor with grips installed. Reasonable price for what you get. Cons: lacks vibration and motion control. Haven’t been able to find a protective case for my switch that is compatible with these grips but that’s ok.

    These fit really well in my hands. Also the buttons are clicky so you can slient play for those people who wanna play at night but dont want to wake up your spouse or kids. Used to get hand cramps from playing the switch for too long with the original joy cons but i dont feel that much fatigue from these grips.
