Customer Ratings & Reviews

I LOVE it! The look and feel of it in your hands is a lot more comfortable than joycons! If you find the joycons to be too small for your hands, these are definitely the solution to that problem. They simply just work so well.

The Hori Pro controller makes it so much easier to game on the Nintendo Switch. Connects right out the box. It even makes it more comfortable to handle. Playing games that use the triggers cause a lot of fatigue on your hand with the original switch controllers. These fill your hand for complete grip. The only thing that bothers me is not having a small/slim case to transport because the controllers are big. So I carry it naked more versus in a case.

I was sceptical when i ordered this but wanted to give it a shot since these joycons are made for adults/big hands. As soon as i started playing with them i fell in love! The hori split pad pro is amazing for what it is. Which is basically a xbox controller attached to your NIntendo switch. They work great and keep your hands from cramping up after long gaming sessions. I highly recommend!!!

A lot of people have gripes about this Joy-Con which I would consider unnecessary and quite ignorant if I'm being honest. There are complaints regarding the inability to use it wirelessly and how you can only use it in handheld mode. Fruitless issues considering: A) They couldn't have made it more clear that the controller isn't wireless. It's 20 bucks for crying out loud! B) Its limit to portability is something I would consider a good thing. Hear me out. The left Joy-Con by default substitutes the d-pad with buttons. Why? So that each Joy-Con, no matter whether it's left or right, can be played single-handedly. If you were to take this Joy-Con and play with it by itself, the d-pad *can't* register as good buttons to ANYONE. That would be just silly. Anyway, if you need to use a d-pad while your Switch is in docked mode, you can simply invest in either a Pro Controller, Third-Party Controller, or SN30 Pro Controller. This is, by all means, a handheld Joy-Con and it serves its purpose tremendously. It gets extra points by default for being able to fit into my Satisfye grip. I bought it to play Mega Man 11, and with zero input delay accompanied by the fact that this d-pad is very comfortable, makes my gameplay experience so much better. It's a soft d-pad that presses quite comfortably if I do say so myself. My only slightest gripe which isn't even really an issue at all is that if you're playing a 3D game, the edges of the analog stick are ridged, and it's somewhat noticeable if you give it the intention. Once you get used to it though, it's perfectly fine. The minus and capture buttons are also mushy as opposed to a tactile press, which is surprising when you first use them, and it takes some getting used to, but like the analog stick aforementioned, they're not that hard to break in. I fully recommend this product for all lovers of platformers. The ONLY reason I'm taking one star away is that my shoulder buttons both got stuck for no apparent reason. I'm assuming something went defunct with the Joy-Con and would appreciate it if HORI could get back to me as to why this happened. (and whether or not something can be done about it)

This item works really well and is highly recommended for a longer playing time , programmable back buttons make it every cool indeed

Really like this item. Feels much. Better then the orginal joy cons only not as portable or easy to travel with but worth it for a better gaming experience.

The Hori Split Pad Pro is the most comforting way to play switch in handheld mode. Even though it doesn’t have motion control, rumble nor NCF reader. (Switch nor skin included).

Fantastic Joy Con Replacement. Absolutely nothing will beat this. It is well built, has about 98% of all the features of a Joy Con, and is 30 dollars cheaper. The only things I dislike about it would be that you have to use it in handheld, and that it doesn't have motion controls or NFC support (for Amiibos).

People give it bad ratings because they say it feels like cheap material .which I mean they are really not wrong but don’t let that scare you the product is like 50 dollars you cannot spect gold material.Works great for bigger hands.Better controller then the joy cons they come with.

I bought my twins Nintendo Switches a couple years ago. Right away one of them broke the right joy-con. Super frustrating as they are expensive. So i bought a replacement online and he did it himself. Well, that did not last long either, so after searching my options, we decided on this controller. They are so great!! MY son loves how it feels like a real video counsel. He said these are actually better than his joy-cons. They are much cheaper too, so a win win for all.

Definitely an upgrade! These attachments feel way better and more comfortable than the original joy cons that the system come with !I would recommend these to anyone that’s a competitive gamer!

second time buying this item, super easy and fun to use! great price point compared to regular joycons.

These are hands down probably the best aftermarket controlers for the switch ever. Super comfortable and makes fps games a breeze!

These are bigger and way better than the original joycons! The buttons feel and press better and these are a bit thicker like standard controllers so my hand doesn’t cramp up. I do wish they were a bit thicker and less pointy at the end as I notice that part is a bit uncomfortable. I wish you could connect these together to make one large controller though. I have a non Nintendo set that does this and it’s great when you want to Hooke up to your tv.

I wanted an additional pair of joycons but also something that resembles the offical pro controller and it does that but without the HD Rumble but the back triggers actually come in handy for RPG'S in making menu interactions much faster. They're lightweight but also feel sturdy. They're very much worth $35-40. The only reason i won't give 5 stars is because the instructions doesn't properly demonstrate how to set up the assign the triggers. I had to just try and accidentally did it right, but other than that they are well worth the budget price for a handheld mode switch lover. Oh the Split-Pad Pro actually fits in the dock too if that matters to anyone. Ps they have a comfortable fit for me and i have small hands and long fingers btw. Hope this review is helpful :)

I love it and it's more comfy then the joy cons but I dislike the fact that it stated it was a "pro" controller but there is no motion sense on the controls itself. Also, the controllers have to be attached to the switch itself and cannot be used as a wireless controller. As far as that it's a good controller.

Very comfortable, I do wish they had internal batteries though

My son loves these. Great for handheld gameplay!!!

Needed a replacement for my joycons that fit bigger hands. These are perfect. I stopped using my switch in handheld because of the joycons being too small.

These controllers are the best. It feels more comfortable in my hands while playing my game. I’ve read a couple people mentioning it was made poorly or whatever, but It feels pretty sturdy. The only down side for me is you can’t use it as a joy-con.
