Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Hori Split Pad Pro is a highly regarded Pros: • Ergonomics: The larger grips make it more comfortable to hold compared to the standard Joy-Con, especially for extended gaming sessions. • Full-Sized Buttons: Provides a more traditional controller feel with responsive, full-sized analog sticks and buttons. • Extra Features: Includes assignable rear triggers and turbo functionality, which can enhance gameplay for certain games. Cons: • Handheld Mode Only: It doesn’t have its own battery, so it only works when attached to the Switch. It won’t function as a standalone wireless controller. • No Motion Controls or Rumble: If you rely on features like HD Rumble or motion controls, you’ll miss out with this controller. • Bulkiness: While comfortable, the added size can make the console less portable. This is a solid choice for players who prioritize comfort and control in handheld mode, particularly for action games, RPGs, or shooters. Also have Turbo for those who care about that

These controllers are way better than the standard ones that the oled comes with. You get a better grip, and my hands don’t hurt or get sore from awkward holding.

For the OLED model please play great built fantastically he loves playing with these before. Just wish that they would play off of the old lead also but if they did, these will be better than the joy cons

Lovely controller grip for the switch! Our nephew prefers to play in handheld mode only. The controller feels very sturdy and works well. It was a great christmas gift! :)

Gave this a 4 just due to the fact its a little chunky. So it doesnt fit inside of carrying cases. But the looks and feels are amazing

This controller set has been a blessing for my child! He loves it and even thought he had received a brand new nintendo switch lol. Everything works great and all the buttons are very sensitive. We love it!

So I got the Hori Split Pad Pro controllers today, and I'm glad I did. First of all, they're cheaper in price than the regular joycons, which boggles the mind. 2nd of all, they are very comfortable for when playing handheld, which is the only way I play the Switch. The 2 protruding grips are there to rest your fingers against, and it makes a huge difference in comfort. The buttons and +pad are a bit bigger. The joysticks are much looser, which made me nervous at first, that they'll break off. But I tested them, and they're very sturdy. The thickness of the controllers are such that the screen looks "deeper", not sure how else to describe it. I like it, maybe it's my imagination, but to me it improves the screen images by blocking glares. There are "assign" & "turbo" buttons at the bottom for you to assign a function button to something else during gameplay. You don't have to go to the game settings to do this. The turbo feature is for you to have continuous fire for a shooting game without continuously pressing a button. I haven't tested this yet. There is also a button on the back of each controller, which can be assigned a function. You can simply use these buttons by squeezing your fingers on the grip. Personally, I'm not that crazy about them, since I tend to squeeze my Switch during intense moments of gameplay, and may accidentally do something I don't want to do. I have two cons about the controllers, but they're minor. One, there are no rumble features. I do like that on the regular joycons, but I played a game using the Split Pad Pro, that had rumble features, and I barely noticed that it wasn't there. Two, the front of the controllers are made of a very smooth plastic. I like to keep my thumbs on the controllers when they're not on a button or joystick, and sometimes they slip on the smooth plastic. Like I said, not a biggie, but I do have to get used to it. I do love the back of the controllers, however. They're made of the same plastic, obviously, but it's textured, not smooth, for a much better grip. I highly recommend these controllers.

Functionally these work great, they are much easier to travel with than my other handles that clamp around the entire switch. The downside is you lose any rumble functionality since they replace the actual joycons. Some games this may not mattter, but if you are used to the rumble on a game that you play often it will feel weird at first as you adjust.

Love the controllers! Perfect for programable shiny hunting especially in Pokemon Legends: ZA. Have tied down the joysticks often and have no drift!

Kids loved it. Bigger than i thought(which was better)

These controllers are great and the programmable buttons are awesome. I bought this for racing (NFS) and it’s a huge difference/improvement over the Nintendo controllers. Actually improved my racing ability.

Amazing packaging, item feels like its of quality materials, i have earlier models of these controllers only reason i upgraded is because these looked way batter

Great product. It works really nicely that I will support the product to all my friends and family.

I use these controllers more than the usual joycons just because I hate that the regular joycons get drift so easily. These aren’t as stiff and I like that there’s an assign button on each joycon

My Daughter absolutely loves these!! And they’re super durable

Love the switch, got it as a birthday gift for my son. Easy to take anywhere, works great. Happy with my purchase!

This is the only controller set that my son uses with his Nintendo Switch. He’s tried others but this is THE one for him.

Loved being able to order online and pickup in store within the hour.

My son has been using it for 2 - 3 weeks and he likes it. No drifting so far and hope it lasts for a loooong time with no issues.

Great add on controller for switch. My son loves it and gives the switch a new look.
