My L/XL hands would often become uncomfortable playing the Switch in handheld mode, I'd prefer waiting until I could be somewhere to set it up on a table or counter and use my pro controller. But since getting these, now I have played frequently for long periods and my hands feel fine! The back buttons are helpful and I LOVE the Turbo! When you need it, it comes in clutch. It's also surprisingly light despite its appearance, and honestly I'm fine without vibrations, but that's your call.

Great product. Way more comfortable to use then the joycons. Bigger joysticks and more responsive. No internal battery so they only work docked to the switch

Probably the best third party controller for the switch. I don’t mind the lack of vibration but the lack of gyroscope is unfortunate. Otherwise this controller is drastically more comfortable to use instead of the tiny joycon Nintendo includes with the device

I decided to pick these up since my kids decided to steal mine from my switch. I couls have grabbed them back but now they are gross since the kids used them :)
I honestly love these more than the original joycons. No drift. Very comfortable in the hands and the way they look is better than my original red joycons (using the red Mario switch).
I did quite a bit of research before picking these up and they were highly recommended.

It felt weird at first since I was so used to the switch controllers. But its great once you get used to the feeling of how it feels in your hand. The controller have been working great and moving in all directions no longer lags for me. I'd recommend it.

I purchased these controllers for my spouse who has difficulty playing with the original size controllers for a long period of time. These larger controllers took her a few hours to get used to, but now they are really working well for her.

I so loved this controller. It survived a few drops up until today. Hence why I’m looking up this same model and buying it again. Great remote for Switch gaming. I suggest buying one for your switch.

I finally gave in and bought these and honestly I cannot go back to using anything else while it's un-docked. These controller really are amazing and it will improve your gameplay, no lie.

Ive only been using for a few hours, but overall its a great substitute for the stock JoyCons while in handheld config. Its just missing a few features…. First and honnestly largest flaw, the additional button…. You can only map it to a button on that same side. So you cant map the left back button to the “B”/Back button. That is honnestly my biggest issue. The other 2 issues are “hardware” related that i woul gladly pay an extra $20-30 for if they were included…. No vibration/feedback… really??? Everything newer then N64 has this feature…. And theres no Gyro/Motion sensors. Otherwise these are great controllers to gove more of a xbox confort feel while playing in handheld mode. Hopefully theres a v2 out that includes the mentioned missing hardware features.

This was an impulse buy after hearing good things here and there, and I cannot express how much of a game-changer these controllers are. I stopped playing Switch handheld because it caused my hands too much pain to wrap them around those tiny controllers. These babies freed my Switch from its dock and I can comfortably play it on the go again. Best advancement for the Switch since the OLED screen

They don't have batteries! You don't have to charge them! I'm stoked. Charging joycons was a pain. I've had them a few weeks now and they feel good, and they're LIGHT so they don't add to the bulk of the Switch

Great, simple product for those who play Switch and have bigger hands. It doesn't have rumble or other features, but it also doesn't require charging or batteries. Really convenient for longer play sessions on the go.
