Customers are satisfied with the comfort, size, and grip of the Split Pad Pro for Nintendo Switch, frequently citing its improved feel and quality compared to standard Joy-Cons. A significant advantage mentioned is the reduction in joystick drift issues. However, some customers noted the lack of rumble and gyro features as drawbacks. The battery life was also mentioned as a potential concern by a few users.

    These controllers make the switch much more comfortable to hold, and the turbo mode is nice for some games. However, there is no rumble and no gyro, so if you need those things, don't get this.

    These are so much more comfortable to hold than the original controllers. Half the price of what the switch comes with and better too! My hands used to cramp with he old ones and it ended up with stick drift so I needed a new pair. I love these so much more.

    This is an awesome product for my switch. I previously owned the original controllers , and own the pro hand held controller. These are far the best. The buttons are substantial, the don’t hurt my hand . Perform just like my pro controller .

    Makes handling the Switch so much better and comfortable when not docked, especially if going handheld for a while. I have small hands so it seemed a little bulky/big but it wasn't really a problem. It still felt right in my hands and just overall you much better grip than Joycons (you can hold on one end with actual leverage). It does add a considerable width to the Switch but unless you're gaming in tight spaces or you're swinging it around, not really an issue. Another thing I wanted to point out that I first noticed and worried me a bit was that it was very light. Shouldn't be surprised considering that there's no haptic feedback on this but I was still expecting a bit of weight to it. Regardless, it functions well and makes handheld gaming much more comfortable so in the end, not really an issue.

    Great if you want something bigger for handheld mode. The controllers feels a little cheap on the plastic and it lacks ghe weight of a normal controller.
