    Quality controllers. I love having this extra pair while I have my other ones charging on the console. They also make playing games in bed comfortable when they are detached. Innovative for people like me that can't stop playing even when they're trying to go to sleep.

    Left joycon not working

    Ugh Either I have awful luck or Nintendo has awful manufacturing because I has issues with the left joycon 3x in a row ! Seriously! The left joycon doesn't hold sync with Switch and inputs would be wrong . I returned it and I had the same issue with the next version. I had this issue with my launch system left joycon and had to call nintendo to fix it . That's what I did here , and they fixed it and shipped it back to me free of charge . Call 1-800-255-3700 if the controller feels to de sync and occasionally inputs are off . That being said once they do work it's nice . The HD rumble is a nice feature and more advanced motion controls work nicely . I miss a D pad but I do like you can play games with a single joycon. Now that I have 4 working joycon , I will never buy another set . Grey color looks adult and overall it's not bad . I wish it was cheaper but being able to split up and play 4 player with 2 joycon sets is nice . Battery life is fantastic. So yeah the issue with left joycon is a serious issue so that should give you caution. Maybe it's been resolved in newest controllers but still something to think about .

    Bought my first Switch which was the Oled model. I needed extra Joycons to play with my family. Always loved the way the blue and red Joycons looked. Classic switch colors. They work great! I will be buying more.

    The switch is booming this past year, and I love it. What else do I love with it? Joy-cons. These are such cool controllers and I love variety of colors in my products. The green and pink really pop and are so vibrant. As for how well they work, just like any other Nintendo product, nearly perfect.

    My other controllers got worn out and made my charater run with out my hands on the controller. So they do wear out after like 80 hours of play, but I love my fun colored ones so I can tell the difference in which one is broken

    We kept ordering used JoyCons but they never worked. Finally but the bullet and ordered these used and I’m so glad we did! They work seamlessly. Easy to pair. And I love the colors!! Pick up at the store was wicked easy. They were friendly and efficient!

    I had to replace my red and blue stock controls the switch came with because my dog found them and tore them apart. I looked online and found the Splatoon colored controls which looked awesome, the girls in the family definitely appreciated the brighter colors. They also played really well.

    Good controllers. Good color selection. Seem to hold up well. Would suggest a separate charging station. Pricey.

    Bought these joycons so that the whole family could play together. We are enjoying the multiplayer Party games, and now we can play 4 at a time. They were very easy to sync with the switch. My son has even synced them to his switch lite for multiplayer fun

    When your controllers are down and you need a change in color, these did the trick.

    Obviously, the console only comes with 1 set of Joy-Cons in the box, so if you need more, this is an easy purchase! The price is a bit hard to swallow, but it is the only option. And I just chose black because I like how slick they look, but the other colors also can look very cool!

    so far so good, no drifting issues with these! and love the colors a lot. I know with the drifting problems some controllers have, i'd still recommend this style. I broke my elbow a few years ago so holding a single controller is hard for any length of time, these allow my arm to sit in more comfortable positions and give me the ability to change positions without affecting gameplay much.
