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.

    So much better than the regular thumb sticks. Not good for motion controls but better for everything else

    The controllers are a lot bigger that what i was expecting. They lap over the screen if the switch itself

    Pretty good. New to switch so I thought these had batteries but they are direct connection, which is good.

    I have to say, even though the cons are big, they still feel really good while playing, the negative is that I can’t put the together on a switch remote

    So far this works great. The controls are very responsive and accurate. There is no drift so far unlike the joy cons, plus they fit my hand so much better. They don’t feel very substantial and maybe a bit flimsy but overall quality seems good.

    These are absolutely the best. The only thing I do not like is the fact that the home button on the controller will not wake the system up; you have to hit the power button on the console.

    Great for anyone that is use to using an Xbox controller or has big hands. The switch is to small for me but with this controller I feel it’s super solid and can with stand my grip!

    My son has large hands for his age and this works great for him. I’ve even used it myself and it’s a lot easier to handle then the tiny joycon attached. Best part they’re less expensive than replacing one joy con.

    It's a much better grip that the standard joycons. The only gripe that I have is that there is no additional support for the screen, so it does feel more weighty at the ends. Still, great controller.
