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.

    Its perfect for handheld play. Wont work for docked but get an official pro for docked. This is like having the pro on the handheld and it’s better than the joy cons. I win matches in Smash with this perfectly. With joy cons playing Smash they would break.

    Finally Nintendo has made a controller that fits in my hands. love the full size and matted finish. Only drawback is the you can't use it as a single controller when switch is docked meaning you can't play on your tv just on the go. I would've given 5 stars if this were possible.

    Feels like a traditional gaming controller, with more bulk to properly grip. Made my switch experience much more enjoyable.

    This was a great buy. My son loves how much better it fits his hands. The joy sticks are more sensitive and the buttons feel like a full controller making it easier to use. I like that he hasn't dropped it since we put these on!

    Hands down the BEST handheld controller I’ve used for the Switch! I can’t stand the joycons as they are too small for my hands. Until these I never played the Switch in handheld mode; now I play a lot more in handheld.

    I hate the small standard joycons and love the feel of the pro controller. This lets me enjoy the pro controller feel in handheld mode.

    The Hori Split Pad Pro Handheld Controller for Nintendo Switch is a great controller. It looks amazing on the Switch and gives it a nice beefy look and feel. I love the programmable buttons on the back. They help my grip feel more natural.
