    It's been 2 years and my joy-con wireless controllers are still working. My family and I used them occasionally especially during the weekends.

    Got these as replacements for my niece’s oled. I love them, makes her oled look brand new. Works just fine, easy to attach and sync, no issues.

    Make sure to purchase the nintendo brand controllers. The knock offs do not work well with rechargers and the console itself. Had to go back and purchase nintendo brand and everything worked great! Highly recommend

    We recently got our Nintendo Switch and needed additional controllers for kids (and adults too!). We purchased a set from Amazon thinking they were fine and had good reviews. But when we went to play two player games, the amazon set didn’t keep up. These controllers are worth the extra. They fit the console perfectly and there is no lag or problem playing. Plus they are bright and cheery.

    Bought Mario Party to play with kids. But it requires additional controller for all of us to play games. So I had to buy this one. No other comment on its quality. It is genuine from Nintendo. But I realized that the price of the different colors is slightly different too. If you are not bothered by its color, you may choose the best deal. I gave it 4 stars, simple because it is quite expensive.

    I ordered these since my blue pair had quit working (from the manufacturer, my girlfriend swapped her right blue joycon for my right red joycon), and they arrived 2 days later. So far they work amazingly! Very happy with my purchase

    Product arrived as quick as expected during the holiday season and works great! If I need to purchase again, I will order through Best Buy again. I have never had an issue with anything I have purchased from here.

    these joy cons are a must need for gaming on the go but It seems that the common issue with these are that after so much use they tend to start tracking on their own. unfortunately I had the lets go limited edition and the left side would always track up and to the left. some reviews said that the material inside breaks down and causes it. so I had to get these to replace it.

    Excellent direct replacement. The joy cons start to stick over time. Needed to get my kids new Joy-cons, and always good to go with originals. Good price. Work great.

    My kids love their switch, they had broken the joycon on the original pair. This item came fast and was easy to order online. Before they even realized the original set were broken I had this ordered and delivered.

    We bought a switch for Christmas and needed another set of controllers. They work well and my kids have enjoyed using them. They are expensive though so it might be worth your while to check out the prices of pro controllers as well

    Had to get a replacement because my original joy con’s stopped working. So I thought adding some color to my switch would be cool and this controller did the trick.

    I like the concept of these controllers...have to get used to them...I just don’t like that u have to buy all these extra stuff to make it a controller which just adds more money n these controllers are not cheap to begin with ...but be cautious they do have problems maybe get warranty...my kids are older but after a year or so they stop working correctly and had issues with calibration...something to keep in mind
