    A good alternative to joycons

    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.

    It does the job well but moving the sticks can get very loud and they don't move as smoothly as regular joy cons but since they're bigger, the overall feel is a lot better.

    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!

    This controller is way better than the joycons that Nintendo makes. I've been using it extensively for a few months and haven't got any drifting issue yet.

    Great item highly recommend for personal switch use if connected directly to switch, more responsive then joycons when connected but prefer the joy cons when used independently. I recommend if you buy this item go with the version that also includes the center holder so you can play away from switch as well otherwise use joycons

    It’s a pretty good device, kinda tiring once you have hours playing with it in a plane though.

    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.

    Performs well, buttons and sticks feel good— however, I don’t find it comfortable to hold. I have relatively small hands, so this likely wouldn’t be an issue for those with larger hands. After buying this controller, I picked up Hori’s split pad Conpact and loveee it. Fits my hands better and has great contouring on the back.

    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.

    I would recommend this to adults use with switch because it'll be too large for a kid's hands but the regular controller is too small for an adult hands.

    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.

    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.

    I dont play my Nintendo switch off the dock much as the joycons it comes with are not comfortable to use with my big hands and the joycons’ joysticks are really small so it makes it awkward to control, but the hori completely fixes all those problems. They fit my hands and the joysticks are the usual size youd find on most controllers . Would definitely recommend.
