    Definitely a good purchase if you have a switch, being as they can start to wear down fairly quickly. But solid purchase, and would definitely recommend. Only issue I could possibly have would be they do not offer the white OLED controllers for purchase. But definitely super easy to pair and setup, takes like 30 seconds and you’re ready to go.

    As with the construction and design of the Switch Joycons, they are built to take the brunt of a drop and protect the screen and main part of the system. Unfortunately that means the tiny plastic piece that causes the joycon to lock into place on the main part of the swtich body tends to break fairly easily. Having a spare joycon or twon will come in handy. Just wish nintendo sold them a little chaeaper or made the single joycon packs easier to find.

    These are replacement controllers for a two year old system. I thought these controllers were nearly indestructable, but my grandson proved me wrong with the originals. Cost more than I would like, but can't do without them.

    I’m genuinely impressed with this controller. It feels comfortable in the hands, with responsive buttons and smooth, precise controls that make gameplay more enjoyable. The build quality is solid, and everything works exactly as it should without lag or connection issues. Whether for long gaming sessions or quick play, it performs reliably and adds a lot of fun to the experience. Overall, it’s a joy to use and an excellent controller that I’d happily recommend.

    In person, these don't quite match the pictures. The pink is a little more on the reddish side (but still a bright pink) and the green is a little deeper, more like a lime than watermelon). Other than that, these things work great! Used them to replace my OG gray ones that one finally got the dreaded drift on the joystick.

    Nintendo controllers are horribly overpriced.They are also very small and if you have a larger hands I would not buy these. I actually sold these to my sister for 35 bucks because I felt bad that she wants another two joycons and they’re like so expensive.I would suggest either buying them from someone you know that are used or buying them use because they are so overpriced.

    I swear this was overpriced but to tell you the truth I'm loving these Joy Cons. Some games you don't need both the left and right so you can easily share one with a pal to play certain games (I.E. Mario kart). Super light weight and easy to use. I'm 6 feet tall so I have pretty big (for the average person) hands and still these little controllers easily fit in them without losing maneuverability during any game I play. Totally worth the price guys.

    I purchased this set of Joy-Con to go with my launch Gray Switch unit. I really like how vibrant the colors are in person. One cool little touch is that the Switch can recognize which color each Joy-Con is when in use. I wish the controllers separately were a little more ergonomic, but I understand the design choices that Nintendo made here. Mostly have played Snipperclips with the Joy-Con. I've experienced zero connectivity issues with the Left Joy-Con.

    Best Controller Out There

    These things are great. I have used the cheaper ones that are a single controller and these split joy cons are so much better. They have been abused and still work but I have gone through three of the cheaper ones in three years. I wish they would go on sale but I understand why they don’t because they are worth it at their regular price.
