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 is a great accessory to have for your Switch, especially if you play on the go or mobile and the original controllers cramp your hands since they're too small, which they are. This feels like a normal size controller in your hands. Some say it may be bulky but its perfect for play on the road or sitting on the couch. Highly recommended!!

    Great product with one very minor issue, but not a deal breaker. I’d give it 4.5 stars if that were an option. The controllers aren’t super tight to the switch. Meaning they click in and aren’t going to fall off of it, but they wiggle a bit. Other than that, functionality works as it should. I recommend!! My son is who uses it and he loves them.

    this purchase came in the next of time! my autistic grandson broke his in middle of a game and was very upset. as much as his mom tried to calm him down asking him to wait another week he didnt seem to understand. as a grandparent i came to the rescue and was able to purchase and pick this up same day!. This was a lifesaver and to see his smiling face was priceless!

    Easy to use and setup. I recommend this product and it’s better than the other controllers. It charges on once it’s connected to the switch

    These grips are very nice. They are not wireless they only work while connected. But great for traveling and kid friendly.

    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.

    Great for big hands

    I have the OLED Switch and had been looking for some sort of hand grip attachment like I had for my older Switch. My hands are big, but I love being able to game on the road when I travel for work. Decided to give these a shot and I haven’t looked back. Feels great in my hands, buttons feel responsive, does what I need it to do.

    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

    Some caveats but the comfort triumphs all

    Two major caveats are the lack of HD rumble (or rumble in general) and missing motion controls especially for ~$50 MSRP (not to mention missing NFC support as well). Despite this, the comfort and improved joy sticks make this an excellent alternative barring missing features and shine in games that are not as reliant on such features.

    Love tge design of these grips having adult hands and trying to play on the SWITCH with the small joycons is painful. These help out tremendously.

    Easier to hold onto switch longer periods of time. No vibration or any special parts. Just switch out joycons and put in place.

    Some of the same flaws as original joycons.

    This was given to me for my birthday, and at first Ioved them. I got these Dec 28th, 2023, and today is January 8th, 2024, and these have just started experiencing the same drift as the original joycons have, which I was hoping wasnt the case. These also can’t be used wirelessly, which is kinda annoying, they also can’t be used to turn the console on at all, they only work when the screen is lit. Overall disappointent, was hoping for wireless support as well, and no joycon drift. Buy something better if you want different switch controllers.

    Just like the switch one battery dies faster. Controllers are abled to be used as a mouse for certain games.
