    Sleek color. Replacing another controller where the joystick no longer pushes in properly after 2+ years.

    I bought these joy-cons for my 8 year old as the original ones that came with his switch were acting up. He is a fan of Splatoon 2 so I thought they would be perfect! He loves the colors and always comments on how he likes the way they feel when he holds them!

    Everything you’d expect from them and my 6 year old son loves the colors. He loves them and at 6 years old he has beaten almost any game he plays. He would know if they were trash or not which is why I gave them a high rating. I know how durable they are too and that’s a major plus.

    You never really know if the “extra” controllers will work as well as the ones that come with the system. These work just as well! They hold a charge. Response from the controllers to the system is great. Plus, who can resist bright neon colors?! Would definitely purchase them again!

    These are a must have for one of my favorite games on the Nintendo Switch- Just Dance! I had to get an extra set of controllers so more people can join in on the fun! Make sure you wear the straps that come with the box otherwise it will slip right out of your hands as you fling your arms in the air dancing!

    I wasn't as excited about the colors when I bought them online but due to the shortage I bought whatever was available. To my surprise, the colors are actually pretty cool! I would have preferred the blue and red. But as extra controllers go, they are cool. I have had them for over a month with a great deal of usage and haven't had any issues with drifting. Only think that doesn't make it a "great" rating for me is the price!

    Ordered these while they were on back order and when they finally arrived it was completely worth the wait. I thought I wasn't going to look the orange as much but the color is much denser in person compared to photos online and goes with the purple so well.

    These aren't my favorite controllers, but they get the job done and they are unique to the system. I'm learning to use them, but I prefer the classic Nintendo 64 feel.

    These work flawlessly when connected to your switch. It works just as easy and smooth as the original ones you get in the box.

    I purchased a second set of joycons for multiplayer. One cool feature is that the Switch can tell what color the joycon is and display that on the screen. This is useful for multiplayer games! One drawback is that there isn't an easy way to charge these out of the box. You can put them on the Switch to recharge, but there's no separate cable.

    Just got a couple to replace the original that came with the console two years ago. They still work fine but the left stick is losing some accuracy. So I can still use them to play party games and such. These can be a bit expensive, so I bought them during a holiday sale.

    Basic: Beware of Drift

    If you are getting these to fix your joycon drift just beware that these controllers still pose the risk of drift. Luckily I have never had a drifting problem and just got these to have extra controllers. They have been great so far and no drift but I also think joycon controllers are extremely overpriced for how basic they are.

    Was experiencing drift after a few years with the joycon that came with my Switch (gray). I bought these to use while my original set was being repaired. I love the vibrant color, it makes them easy to spot. I sometimes wish they would come packaged with matching left and right joycon, instead of two different colors, but I am very pleased with these. I've had them for a year, and no drift on this new set yet. I am considering maybe a new set with different colors!
