Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the Split Pad Pro Handheld Controller for Nintendo Switch due to its comfortable design, suitable size for various hand sizes, and high-quality build. Users appreciate the enhanced grip, great feel, lightweight yet sturdy construction, and responsive buttons. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the lack of rumble and vibration features, the inability to use the controller wirelessly, and potential battery drain. While some are not concerned about drift, it is still worth noting.

    I never realized my hands were probably too big for the factor joy-cons until I purchased this. Theses controller handles make gameplay so much more comfortable. After buying this, I had to buy the new carrying case from Amazon so now I’m good to go!

    The original switch joy cons always felt too small for me so I tried these out and love them! They’re a lot like the Xbox controller but split in half for the switch. You cannot use them outside of handheld mode.

    What a game changer these are! Completely changes the dynamic and comfort of playing the switch hand held. Super duper light weight and feel really good in the hands. Completely opposite of the joycons which bunch up your hands and feel uncomfortable with longer playing sessions. These are a must!

    I have really enjoyed this and find it to be the best solution for the standard joycons issues during extended handheld play. It feels better in the hands (much lighter than I expected), joy sticks are smooth and not too touchy, and the lost long D pad makes a very accepted return. I do wish the buttons weren't as loud for nights I play in bed next to my partner. All in all, best solution I've found so far (Fingers crossed for a better switch pro handheld comfort).

    This is definitely a good upgrade from the controllers it comes with. Only downside is there isn’t any vibration with game play and it can be hard to see the buttons

    A Great Handheld Mode Alternative for At-Home Use

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    For the price, this can't be beat. Can't be used as individual JoyCon as they have no batteries (and the orientation wouldn't work that way anyway) but for handheld mode this is far superior to just using 2 JoyCon. Much less portable this way, though. For in-home use, however, they're wonderful.

    I bought this over 10 months ago and they still hold up very well. It’s comfortable to hold and has several extra buttons for whatever you need to use them for. It’s very great quality and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase.

    Finally, a Nintendo Switch (split pad) controller that is not too small for my hands! Feels smooth, comfortable and looks good. Does not work when disconnected and does not use amiibos. Still not a loss for me but a win!

    Feels like a pro controller fused with the switch!

    Great quality. Feels like OEM materials. The clicks and locks are solid. No jiggle or loose points. The button are very tactical and precise like the OEM pro controller. Well worth the money if you need better ergonomics for long hours of gaming. That said, it makes your switch look huge and it’s harder to find a case trust still fit toy switch when attached. I will sacrifice ergonomics over portability any day.
