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.

    This was the perfect fit for my son. He was looking something with a better grip for his switch. It’s fits so much better in his hands and its comfortable grip.

    The Hori Split pad pro is a great replacement for the joy controllers. The makes the holding of the Nintendo Switch more comfortable.

    Worthwhile purchase for handheld mode enthusiasts

    Very comfortable! All the buttons are top-notch quality. It is missing some features, most notably rumble and gyro. But it makes playing the Switch in handheld mode very enjoyable. My only gripe is that some of the small, lesser-used buttons are rubber, which catches lint. But it’s a minor annoyance.

    It’s a great pick up but get the one with the middle piece. Yes it’s more expensive but it’s worth it I made the sad mistake and don’t do that and RIP trying to find it

    This is flat out amazing! Only thing that sucks is that you can’t put any case whatsoever on the system itself. For some reason there’s a “Protrusion” on both controllers so if you put a case or anything on the Switch itself, these won’t go down. It does fully fit on the dock though, so that’s good.

    Buttons feel nice, build quality is good just too big for me. I have average size hands and prefer the Compact version. If you have bigger hands though this is the one.

    Yes you may lose some things the joycon offers such as rumble but this makes playing handheld so much better. I have big hands so the joycons have never been good for me but with this gamepad its just like using an xbox controller attached to the switch

    Great pad for comfort grip. It does make the feel of the console a little wide though, but it securely connects tot he rails without any wiggle. No rumble or gyro, but it’s a good alternative if you don’t mind those. Turbo mode gets a bit of getting used to in order to activate and deactivate it

    Wish i wouldve bought this sooner. Really upgrades the switch in handheld mode and makes in feel like a console in your hands. Stop cramping your hands with the tiny joy cons.

    If you use your switch as a handheld portable you NEED this or something like it. The ergonomics on these motes are WAY better for longer play sessions than the standard motes...

    Much more comfortable grip for handheld mode

    I find these controllers much more comfortable to use for handheld mode games that require a lot of fast inputs and precision. The only con besides not having full functionality that the first party controllers have (amiibo reader etc) is that the controllers are very big and look rather silly when docked.

    Pro's and cons. Very large, pro A little flimsy, con No wireless capability. If you only use handheld mode and have no desire to travel with the controllers attached. I recommend it. Great feel, just needs wireless. Also I returned this item after using them for around an hour.
